These passages of the document [“Century of Light”] seek to
acquaint believers everywhere with the profound change in Bahá'í culture that
the preceding decades of struggle, achievement and disappointment made possible
and that was capitalized on through the agency of the Four Year Plan. The
culture now emerging is one in which groups of Bahá'u'lláh's followers explore
together the truths in His Teachings, freely open their study circles,
devotional gatherings and children's classes to their friends and neighbours,
and invest their efforts confidently in plans of action designed at the level
of the cluster, that makes growth a manageable goal.
