School and educational systems will go through radical changes as well. In fact education will be compulsory for all the children of the Earth at the expense of the Supreme State whenever families can't afford to sustain it [67]. (68:1) Programs of study will gradually have to become uniform in all Nations, and through the teaching of one auxiliary international script and language in addition to their own [68], the men and women of the world could finally clearly understand one another, maintaining at the same time their own peculiar diversities. (68:2) This principle of compulsory universal education will allow optimizing the use of all the potential at the disposal of human kind: the force and the capability of intellect. The fundamental causes of the current and very severe disparities in the distribution of wealth among the people of the world lie in the wide differences which exist in the level of instruction [69]. (68:3) But Baha'u'llah' s concept of education is not just imposing learning on a child, as is today's practice, but to unveil his potentialities [70].
(68:4)
