Oneness of Humanity: We Are the Earth!

Jamál (Beauty), 19 Núr (Light) 176 B.E. - Sunday, June 23, 2019

"O people of the world, ye are all the fruit of one tree and the leaves of one branch. Walk with perfect charity, concord, affection, and agreement. I swear by the Sun of Truth, the light of agreement shall brighten and illumine the horizons. The all-knowing Truth hath been and is the witness to this saying. Endeavor to attain to this high supreme station which is the station of protection and preservation of mankind. This is the intent of the King of intentions, and this the hope of the Lord of hopes."

The Bahá’í Writings

Oneness of Humanity:
We Are Earth!

We are Earth!
We are the dendrites and axons
Composing the planet's brain.

We are Earth!
We are the nerve cells
Uniting the hemispheres of thought.

We are Earth!
We are the elements
Of the planet's soul.

We are Earth!
We are black, white,
Brown, yellow, and red.

We are humanity,
And we are the Earth!
