FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT





         ...in democracy, 

          because thought and speech are not restricted,
          the greatest progress is witnessed.


         
- Abdu'l-Baha -


 
Dear Ones,

We, the dreamers and builders of this hour, are called to midwife the birth of peace, to cradle it like a flame in the dark, to sow justice where thorns once grew, to dismantle the old walls of greed and strife.

For those whose hearts have sensed the looming threats,
advocates for HUMAN RIGHTS and ethical conduct, it was crucial to recognize and pay attention to significant matters currently at hand, regardless of their location: The consequences of shadow governments exerting influence over governmental policies from behind the scenes, far-reaching and impacting significant facets of human existence, including health, communication, education, science, art, agriculture, industry, and the global economy as a whole.

Operating at the highest echelons of society and international governance, these shadow entities aimed to realize a profoundly distorted objective of global domination standing in stark contrast to the Baha'i Declaration of Human Obligations and Rights articulated in 1947, issued one year prior to the Baha'i International Community's registration as a non-governmental organization, advocating for "the establishment of a world commonwealth uniting all nations, races, creeds and classes and safeguarding the autonomy of its state members and the personal freedom and initiative of the individuals that compose them."

Explaining it further, the GUARDIAN of the Baha'i community wrote: 

Its purpose is neither to stifle the flame of a sane and intelligent patriotism in men’s hearts, nor to abolish the system of national autonomy so essential if the evils of excessive centralization are to be avoided. It does not ignore, nor does it attempt to suppress, the diversity of ethnical origins, of climate, of history, of language and tradition, of thought and habit, that differentiate the peoples and nations of the world. It calls for a wider loyalty, for a larger aspiration than any that has animated the human race. It insists upon the subordination of national impulses and interests to the imperative claims of a unified world. It repudiates excessive centralization on one hand, and disclaims all attempts at uniformity on the other. Its watchword is unity in diversity.
Fortunately, a significant and essential development for our future has arisen since and is gaining momentum. Allow me to provide a brief explanation.

As far as I know personally,
an ultimate movement towards freedom and self-determination for the global populace was initiated several years ago by an international coalition known as the Alliance. This group collaborated with certain factions of the U.S. military to collect and disseminate high-level military intelligence aimed at eliminating the oppressive forces that have long enslaved humanity. With the online backing of millions of individuals from diverse backgrounds, efforts were made to counteract the disinformation propagated by mainstream media. This collective awareness led to a significant awakening among countless individuals worldwide regarding the hidden truths and the ongoing conflict between the forces of darkness and those of light. By the summer of 2018, this information warfare, in conjunction with some military operations conducted by the Alliance, began to effectively challenge the dubious agendas of these self-proclaimed rulers.

In my opinion, this significant display of positive energy, from individuals across diverse backgrounds and beliefs, signified a substantial advancement in America's engagement in the LESSER PEACE PROCESS.

This sentiment is reinforced by the statements from our highest administrative authority, as evidenced by this global mobilization:

[...] the discussions about the future of the international order must involve and excite the generality of humankind. This discussion is so important that it cannot be confined to leaders [...] On the contrary, this conversation must engage women  and men at the grassroots level. Broad participation will make the process self-reinforcing by raising awareness of world citizenship and increase support for an expanded international order.
An international framework that will ultimately honor, in due course and in part due to this patriotic dedication, the divine purposes and DESIGN, as urgently requested by the Baha'i administrative bodies.
The present condition of the world—its economic instability, social dissensions, political dissatisfaction and international distrust—should awaken the youth from their slumber and make them enquire what the future is going to bring. It is surely they who will suffer most if some calamity sweeps over the world. They should therefore open their eyes to the existing conditions, study the evil forces that are at play and then with a concerted effort arise and bring about the necessary reforms—reforms that shall contain within their scope the spiritual as well as social and political phases of human life.

- Shoghi Effendi

As the Golden age unfurls its wings, reflecting on all prior considerations, our most crucial and immediate contribution to global peace at this pivotal moment is, without a doubt, to PRAY for AMERICA, THE PEACEMAKER, thus aligning our spiritual resources with this Baha'i prediction, which becomes increasingly evident with each passing day:

It should not be imagined that the processes now moving in the world will be free from challenge or difficulty. There may well be set-backs, and conflicts may erupt periodically, as humanity proceeds towards the emergence and consolidation of the Lesser Peace, giving rise in due course to the establishment of the Most Great Peace.


 
Be wonderfully blessed!
