Writings of Bahá’u’lláh: The Seven Valleys, Part 2 of 8

Baha’i principles envision an ideal society. These principles are gender equality; elimination of all forms of prejudice whether religious, racial, class, or national; harmony of religion and science; universal opportunity of education for all; a universal auxiliary language, which all humanity can use to cooperate quickly with one another; a judicious world government; and the elimination of extremes of wealth and poverty. The Baha’i followers, see a noble society as a real goal to be pursued in everyday life. Today we present a selection from “The Seven Valleys,” which was written in Baghdad after Baha’u’llah returned from Kurdistan in 1856.
