Secret of Divine Civilization (book)
|
Treatise addressed anonymously to the entire Persian nation, outlining both the secular and the religious bases of true civilization. Identified by Shoghi Effendi as Abdu'l-Baha's "outstanding contribution to the future reorganization of the world." Presents a defense of Western-style modernization in the face of opposition to the Shah's reforms. Explores the qualities of the spiritually learned through the lens of an Islamic tradition that the learned "must guard himself, defend his faith, oppose his passions and obey the commandments of his Lord". Presents the essential outlines of the Lesser Peace. Argues that religion is the greatest instrument for achieving true civilization, but warns that it can be diverted to the wrong ends. Rejects the possibility of a secular morality based on an "innate sense of human dignity", since "self-love is kneaded into the very clay of man". Issues a call for education reform, borrowing from other cultures as necessary, to restore the ancient glory of Persia.

Bahá’u’lláh’s preeminent doctrinal work as well as His second longest, answering four questions from an uncle of the Báb regarding prophetic expectation and fulfilment, affirming the essential unity of the prophets of God while simultaneously acknowledging the distinctiveness of their persons and missions, expounding the concept of progressive revelations from God that are renewed about every thousand years, summarizing the spiritual prerequisites of the seekers on the spiritual path, clarifying the central role in that path of the independent investigation of reality, condemning the clergy for their role in the rejection of the prophets from age to age, and emphasizing, through a commentary on certain verses of the gospels, the need for a symbolic as opposed to a literal understanding of sacred scriptures.

Bahá’u’lláh’s trenchant apologia of His claims, by far His longest single work, written in the voice of one of His supporters, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the truth through the eye of the heart and refuting seven specific accusations levelled by a certain follower of Mírzá Yaḥyá. The answers emphasize the importance of ‘He Whom God shall make manifest’ in the writings of the Báb, declare Bahá’u’lláh’s claim to be the fulfilment of that promise, assert that the relationship between the Báb and Bahá’u’lláh is the same as that between John the Baptist and Jesus Christ, and warn the questioner of the wrath of God.
