      The period between the ages of 12 and 15 is a crucial time when fundamental concepts about individual and collective life are formed.<\/p>

      Junior youth meet in small groups at the local level. With the help of their animator, they develop their language skills and the power of expression. They think of acts of service they wish to undertake to enhance their neighborhood’s well-being.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00eds see the young as the most precious treasure a community can possess. In them are the promise and guarantee of the future. In order for this promise to be realised, children need to receive spiritual nourishment. In a world where the joy and innocence of childhood can be overwhelmed by the pursuit of materialistic ends, the moral and spiritual education of children takes on vital importance.<\/p>

      Children\u2019s classes emphasise the acquisition of spiritual qualities. Ultimately, the goal is for the children to understand and act upon their own spiritual development and their contribution to the well-being of society.<\/p>

      The material covers a period of six years and addresses several topics:<\/p>

      • Acquisition of spiritual qualities, such as truthfulness, kindness, courage, purity of heart, generosity<\/li>
      • Development of a virtuous behavior leading to a fruitful and productive life for the betterment of the world<\/li>
      • Exploration of the life and teachings of some of the Manifestations of God, such as Abraham, Moses, Krishna, Buddha, Zoroaster, Jesus, Mohammad, the B\u00e1b and Bah\u00e1\u2019u\u2019ll\u00e1h<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00eds in localities throughout Switzerland gather alongside their friends and neighbours to pray and consult on various themes. These gatherings provide opportunities for the participants to read aloud and listen to the recitation of extracts from Holy Scriptures and other texts. They also often include uplifting music, songs and meaningful conversations.<\/p>

        They serve to awaken spiritual susceptibilities within the participants. When seen jointly with the acts of service they perform, these gatherings contribute to a pattern of community life infused with the spirit of devotion and focused on the attainment of spiritual and material prosperity.<\/p>

        There is no formula on how a devotional meeting can be organised. All can contribute to this informal space.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

        In social spaces at all levels of society, from the local to regional and national, there are a range of ongoing conversations concerned with various aspects of humanity\u2019s wellbeing and progress. Based on a reading of reality, and the needs identified in collaboration with others, these conversations can be on such subjects as the equality of women and men, peace, governance, public health, and development, to name but a few.<\/p>

        The Swiss Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00ed Community contributes to the public welfare in a variety of ways. Its current engagements include interreligious collaboration, the promotion of gender equality, the advancement of human rights, and efforts in peacebuilding.<\/p>

        At the international level, the Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00ed International Community is similarly engaged. It is an international non-governmental organization which represents all National Spiritual Assemblies around the world with offices in Geneva, Brussels, New York, Jakarta and Addis Ababa.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
