The teachings of Bahá'u'lláh are the light of this age and the spirit of this century. Expound each of them at every gathering.
- The first is investigation of truth,
- The second, the oneness of mankind,
- The third, universal peace,
- The fourth, conformity between science and divine revelation,
- The fifth, abandonment of racial, religious, worldly and political prejudices, prejudices which destroy the foundation of mankind.
- The sixth is righteousness and justice,
- The seventh, the betterment of morals and heavenly education,
- The eighth, the equality of the two sexes,
- The ninth, the diffusion of knowledge and education,
- The tenth, economic questions, and so on and so forth.
Strive that souls may attain unto the light of guidance and hold fast unto the hem of Bahá'u'lláh.
