Therefore, the concept of a new world order is born from a spiritual perspective. It is certainly not by imposing new economic or social laws or through political negotiations among nations or presidents of republics, or among monarchs and parliaments of more or less powerful nations that prejudices of race, faith , history, culture and power will be eliminated. On the contrary this will occur only through a new process that requires the willing and unconditional acceptance of the spiritual principle of the "unity of human kind". (28:4) Only one human species exists, though infinitely diversified in secondary aspects of life. This is the basis for the building of a new world order. These concepts were expressed more than 100 years ago by He Who was the forerunner of world unity: Baha'u'llah . (1817-1892). In one of His books He wrote: "Soon... will the present day Order be rolled up, and a new one spread out in its stead". [14]. (28:5) For the reason of what He wrote to rulers, presidents, men of religious and political power, Baha'u'llah was exiled, imprisoned and persecuted for 40 years. Today His writings have been translated into every language of the world and His followers are scattered to the four corners of the of the Earth. The great Tolstoy wrote about Him, Who died as a prisoner: "We waste our lives intent on revealing the mysteries of the universe, but a Prisoner exists, Baha'u'llah, Who possesses the key."
(28:6)
