ical, ancient
or modern, find in the teachings of Baha'u'llah the expression of their
highest wish.

For example, the people of religions find, in the teachings of His
Holiness Baha'u'llah, the establishment of Universal Religion--a religion
that perfectly conforms with present conditions, which in reality effects
the immediate cure of the incurable disease, which relieves every pain and
bestows the infallible antidote for every deadly poison. For if we wish to
arrange and organize the world of mankind in accordance with the present
religious imitations and thereby to establish the felicity of mankind, it
is impossible and impracticable: for example, the enforcement of the laws
of the Old Testament and also of the other religions in accordance with

the teachings of His Holiness Baha'u'llah.

Likewise with regard to the party of "equality" which seeks the solution

society.

So with the other parties: when ye look deeply into this matter, ye will
discover that the highest aims of those parties are found in the teachings
of Baha'u'llah. These teachings constitute the all-inclusive power among
all men, and are practicable....

For example, the question of Universal Peace, about which His Holiness
Baha'u'llah says that the Supreme Tribunal must be established; although
the League of Nations has been brought into existence, yet it is incapable
of establishing Universal Peace. But the Supreme Tribunal which His
Holiness Baha'u'llah has described will fulfill this sacred task with the
utmost might and power. And his plan is this: that the national assemblies
of each country and nation--that is to say, their parliaments--sh
