ABSTRACT
The chapter considers how the Universal House of Justice, through its constant flow of writings, guides the Bahá’í world in a global learning process aimed at progressively translating the revelation of Bahá’u’lláh into reality. Given its responsibility for addressing issues regarding the social, material, and spiritual advancement of humanity, the range of subjects it covers is vast. The aim of the chapter is simply to provide an introduction to the ocean of its guidance. It does so first, by contextualizing its guidance within the Bahá’í concept of history and second, by considering some of its writings concerning the development of the Bahá’í community, the promulgation and application of Bahá’í law, and the life and development of society more generally.
