I. THE BAHÁ'Í CONCEPT OF EQUALITY

Extracts From the Writings of Bahá'u'lláh

1: O Children of Men! Know ye not why We created you all from the
same dust?...
O Children of Men! Know ye not why We created you all from the
same dust? That no one should exalt himself over the other. Ponder at
all times in your hearts how ye were created. Since We have created
you all from one same substance it is incumbent on you to be even as
one soul, to walk with the same feet, eat with the same mouth and
dwell in the same land, that from your inmost being, by your deeds and
actions, the signs of oneness and the essence of detachment may be
made manifest. Such is My counsel to you, O concourse of light! Heed

ye this counsel that ye may obtain the fruit of holiness from the tree of
wondrous glory.

Bahá'í Publishing Trust, 1985), p. 20) [1]

Exalted, immensely exalted is He Who hath removed differences and
