In the Bah Faith, the concept refers to the divine plan and purpose for humanity’s spiritual and social evolution. It’s understood not as a set of specific commands, but rather as the unfolding process of unification, justice, and peace gradually being realized on Earth through the guidance of the Manifestations of God. Observing principles like independent investigation of truth, promoting universal education, and working for the betterment of society aligns actions with this divine purpose.
Understanding this concept provides a framework for individual and collective action, directing efforts towards the establishment of a more unified and just world. Historically, the unfoldment of this divine purpose is traced through the succession of Messengers, each contributing to humanity’s progressive spiritual understanding and societal development. Embracing this vision fosters hope and motivates individuals to contribute actively to positive global change.
