Adopting a common auxiliary language is viewed as integral to world peace and prosperity.
The sixth Ishráq [Splendour] is union and concord amongst the children of men. From the beginning of time the light of unity hath shed its divine radiance upon the world, and the greatest means for the promotion of that unity is for the peoples of the world to understand one another's writing and speech. In former Epistles We have enjoined upon the Trustees of the House of Justice either to choose one language from among those now existing or to adopt a new one, and in like manner to select a common script, both of which should be taught in all the schools of the world. Thus will the earth be regarded as one country and one home. The most glorious fruit of the tree of knowledge is this exalted word: Of one tree are all ye the fruit, and of one bough the leaves. Let not man glory in this that he loveth his country, let him rather glory in this that he loveth his kind. Concerning this We have previously revealed that which is the means of the reconstruction of the world and the unity of nations. Blessed are they that attain thereunto. Blessed are they that act accordingly.
Bahá'u'lláh, Tablets of Bahá'u'lláh, pp. 127-128 [emphais added]
Further:
The day is approaching when all the peoples of the world will have adopted one universal language and one common script. When this is achieved, to whatsoever city a man may journey, it shall be as if he were entering his own home."
Bahá'u'lláh, Tablets of Bahá'u'lláh, pp. 166-167 [emphasis added]
In the coming ages, two languages will be taught in the schools, one the native tongue, the other an international auxiliary language.
