"Bahá'u'lláh - The Divine Educator - In the middle of the 19th century, God summoned Bahá'u'lláh-meaning the ""Glory of God""-to deliver a new Revelation to humanity. For four decades thousands of verses, letters and books flowed from His pen. In His Writings, He outlined a framework for the development of a global civilization which takes into account both the spiritual and material dimensions of human life.I have never aspired after worldly leadership. My sole purpose hath been to hand down unto men that which I was bidden to deliver by God... - Bahá'u'lláhBahá'u'lláh suffered 40 years of imprisonment, torture and exile for bringing God's latest message to humanity. Today, His life and mission are becoming increasingly well-known across the planet. Millions of people are learning to apply His teachings to their individual and collective lives for the betterment of the world.
