Metaphysical aspects of love and unity

Baha'u'llah affirmed three fundamental, essential unities at different levels of being. First, he proclaimed the absolute unity of divine.

The unity of divine reality, however, is beyond the capacity of human understanding, even in terms of a conceptual framework. Also, the categories of oneness and plurality are incapable of expressing the unknowable divine unity, but this divine reality is the foundation and ultimate purpose of all beings.

Human beings are capable of reflecting divine reality through their longing and love for recognition and attainment of God. For Baha'is, all beings are signs and indications of the divine.

The mind can only understand the realms of appearance, manifestations and phenomena. However, by divine decree there is a mediation between God and humans. This is the realm of the supreme manifestations of God in whom the invisible becomes visible. These are the prophets of God who appear in each age in accordance with the stages of human development to exemplify the highest perfection of humanity and the actualisation of the divine sign, which is latent in all humanity. Therefore, the ultimate meaning and the fulfillment of human destiny are realised through the recognition of the supreme manifestation of God in each age.
