In connection with your teaching work: what the Guardian wishes you to
particularly emphasize in all your talks is the supreme necessity for all
individuals and nations in this day to adopt in its entirety the social
programme given by Bahá’u’lláh for the reconstruction of the religious,
economic and political life of mankind. He wishes you to explain and analyze
the elements that help in raising this Divine World Order in the light of the
34
present-day events and conditions in the world. Special stress, he feels,
should be laid on the impending necessity of establishing a supranational and
sovereign world state, as the one described by Bahá’u’lláh. With the world
becoming increasingly subject to tumults and convulsions never experienced
before, the realization of such a necessity is entering into the consciousness
of not only the wise and learned, but of the common people as well. The
believers should, therefore, seize this opportunity and make a supreme effort
to present, in a convincing and eloquent language, those social and
humanitarian teachings of the Faith which we believe to constitute the sole
panacea for the innumerable ills afflicting our present-day world.
