Bahá’u’lláh’s purpose is to usher in a new stage in human development—the organic and
spiritual unity of the peoples and nations of the world—signalizing thereby the coming of age of
the human race and characterized, in the fullness of time, by the emergence of a world civilization
and culture. To this end, He revealed His teachings for the inner and outer transformation of
human life. “Every verse which this Pen hath revealed is a bright and shining portal that
discloseth the glories of a saintly and pious life, of pure and stainless deeds”, He stated. And in
countless Tablets He, the Divine Physician, diagnosed the ills afflicting humanity and set forth His
healing remedy for “the elevation, the advancement, the education, the protection and the
regeneration of the peoples of the earth”. Bahá’u’lláh explained that “The summons and the
message which We gave were never intended to reach or to benefit one land or one people only.”
“It is incumbent upon every man of insight and understanding”, He wrote, “to strive to translate
that which hath been written into reality and action…. Blessed and happy is he that ariseth to
promote the best interests of the peoples and kindreds of the earth.”
