…individuals, with a positive attitude and in a posture of
learning, endeavour through their own initiative to fulfil personal spiritual
obligations and to carry out acts of Bahá’í service while encouraging and
supporting others to do the same. Such individuals strive to make the promotion
of moral principles, the advancement of the spiritual education of children and
junior youth, and the multiplication of other community-building activities
part of their daily lives. They seek to resolve various problems in their
individual and collective lives through a process of consultation while maintaining
unity at all times.
