Addresses a number of theological questions by implying that the answers lie in the realm of action, in the process elucidating several central Bahá’í teachings: that the Manifestations should be regarded as ‘divine physicians’ prescribing the remedy from age to age in accordance with the disease, that the unity of mankind is the remedy for the ills of today, that one should be ‘anxiously concerned with the needs of the age’ in which one lives and centre one’s deliberations ‘on its exigencies and requirements’, and that words should be matched with deeds and that both should be motivated by purity of intention.
