Ruhi Book 3, Branch 1 (Grade 2#1)

Teaching Children's Classes – Grade 2#1

This course is the first in a series that addresses the aim and content of lessons that children will study following Grade 1. It further develops the concept that the gem-like qualities that children are to mirror forth can best be seen as faculties of the human soul, as permanent structures on which a noble and upright character is built.

It focuses on those habits and patterns of conduct that give expression to the inner spiritual qualities explored in Grade 1 such as turning to God in prayer, adhering to the laws of God, and seeking knowledge. It comprises nine lessons for children, arranged into three sets, as well as preparatory sections for teachers to analyze their content.

  • What is a Children's Class?

    Bahá'í Children's Classes are based on the teachings of Bahá'u'lláh, the founder of the Bahá'í Faith. They contribute to the awakening and development of the spiritual nature of children through the development of spiritual attributes or virtues common to all the world's major religions, as well as the knowledge, skills, understanding and attitudes required to love and serve humanity. Subject to parental approval, Bahá'í Children's Classes are open to and suitable for all children regardless of their cultural or religious background.

Ruhi Institute

Bahá'ís everywhere are engaged in a global process of learning that is helping to build their capacity to apply the teachings of Bahá'u'lláh to the transformation of society. As a contribution to this learning process, the Ruhi Institute carries out action and research in the field, in order to develop programs and materials that enhance the capacity of individuals and communities to serve humanity.

The main sequence of courses is organized so as to set the individual, whether Baha'i or not, on a path being defined by the accumulating experience of the community in its endeavour to open before humanity the vision of Baha'u'llah's World Order.

The very notion of a path is, itself, indicative of the nature and purpose of the courses, for a path invites participation, it beckons to new horizons, it demands effort and movement, it accommodates different paces and strides, it is structured and defined. A path can be experienced and known, not only by one or two but by scores upon scores; it belongs to the community. To walk a path is a concept equally expressive. It requires of the individual volition and choice; it calls for a set of skills and abilities but also elicits certain qualities and attitudes; it necessitates a logical progression but admits, when needed, related lines of exploration; it may seem easy at the outset but becomes more challenging further along. And crucially, one walks the path in the company of others.
