Baha’u’llah and the New Era

CHAPTER 10: THE WAY TO PEACE
14/32

So may all the savagery of men disappear by the mercy of God, working through the pure in heart and the sincere of soul.

Do not think the peace of the world an ideal impossible to attain.

Nothing is impossible to the divine benevolence of God.

If you desire with all your heart friendship with every race on earth, your thought, spiritual and positive will spread; it will become the desire of others, growing stronger until it reaches the minds of all men.
Universal Language Having glanced at the principal causes of war and how they may be avoided, we may now proceed to examine certain constructive proposals made by Baha'u'llah with a view to achieving the Most Great Peace.
The first deals with the establishment of a universal auxiliary language.
Baha'u'llah refers to this matter in the Book of Aqdas and in many of His Tablets.

Thus in the Tablet of I_sh_raqat He says:-- The Sixth I_sh_raq (Effulgence) is Concord and Union amongst men.
Through the radiance of Union have the regions of the world at all times been illumined, and the greatest of all means thereunto is the understanding of one another's writing and speech.
