Commemorate Birth Of Baha'u'llah Baha'is around the world obser- ved the birth of the prophet-found- er of their faith on Friday, November 12. It was on this day in 1817 that Baha'u'llah was born in - Tihran in presenf day Iran. The Faith' of Bitha'u'llah was born around the middle of the nineteenth century and has, as a result of the successive banish- ments of its Founder, cu m ating in His exile to the' Turkish ' nal colony of Akko,a d his subsequent' im death and , buri ' its vicinity1,- fixed its perma nt spiritual centre in the Holy Land, and is now in the process of laying the foundations of its world administrative centre in the city of Haifa, Israel. The aim of Baha'u'llah,. the prophet of this new and great age which humanity has entered upon -- he, whose advent , fulfills the prophecies of the Old and, New Testaments as well as those of the , Qur'an regarding the coming of the promised one in the time of the .. end, on the day of judgement, is not - to destrey . but to fulfill the revelations of the past, to reconcile rather than accentuate the dever- gencies of the conflicting creeds whiCh• disrupt present-day society. His purpose, far from belittling the station of the prophets gone ' before him or of whittling down. their teachings, is to restate the basic truths which these teachings enshrine in a manner that would conform to the needs, and be in harmony with the capacity, and be applicable to the problems; the ills and perplexities, of the age in which we live. His mission is to' proclaim that the ages of the infancy andbf the childhood of the human race are past, that the convulsions associated with the present stage of mankind, and are heralding the 'approach of that age of ages , when swords will be beaten into plowshares, when the kingdom promised by Jesus Christ will have been established, and the peace of the' planet definitely and perman- ently ensured. Nor does Baha'u'l- lah claim finality for his own revelation, but rather stipulates that a fuller measure of the truth he has been commissioned by the almighty to vouchsafe to humanity, ' at so critical a juncture in its fortunes, must needs be disclosed at future stages in the constant and limitless evolution of mankind.
