Book excerpt: The times in which we live are characterized by two powerful processes: disintegration and integration. Each and every person has the possibility of contributing to the process of integration. Unfortunately, many remain spectators, either because they don't know what to do, or feel that due to the magnitude of the problems facing society, their efforts would have little effect. Bahá'u'lláh has revealed teachings that give us a clear vision of the future society characterized by unity, justice, and peace that we are called to construct. The Universal House of Justice gives concrete guidance on the most effective actions we can take at this moment, calling us to participate in a world-wide program of moral and spiritual education for different age groups - children, junior youth, youth and adults - offering materials and training for everyone interested in participating in this magnificent undertaking. Those who join the effort become part of a planetary network, receiving guidance and support in their efforts to contribute to a better world. The book integrates easily-understood explanations with relevant quotes from Shoghi Effendi and Messages from the Universal House of Justice.
