Throughout history, God has sent humanity a series of divine Educators—known as Manifestations of God—whose teachings have uplifted hearts and shaped civilizations. These include Abraham, Krishna, Zoroaster, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, and Muhammad. Bahá’u’lláh, the most recent of these Messengers, taught that all the world’s great religions come from the same divine Source and are, in essence, chapters of one unfolding faith from God.

Bahá'ís believe that humanity’s most urgent need today is a unifying vision—one that brings clarity to the purpose of life and inspires collective progress. This vision is found in the writings of Bahá’u’lláh, which offer guidance on themes such as:

• The oneness of God and religion 

• The oneness of humanity and freedom from prejudice 

• The inherent nobility of every human being 

• The progressive nature of religious truth 

• The development of spiritual qualities and virtues 

• The integration of worship and service 

• The equality of women and men 

• The harmony of science and religion 

• The vital role of justice in human affairs 

• The importance of education for all 

• The dynamic relationships that bind individuals, communities, and institutions

To explore these teachings further, we invite you to visit the Bahá’í Reference Library where you can read the sacred Writings of the Báb, Bahá’u’lláh, and ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, as well as works by Shoghi Effendi and the Universal House of Justice.
