Education - of Women
BAHA'O'LLAH declares the education of woman to be of more importance than that of man. If the mother be ignorant, even if the father have great knowledge, the child's education will be at fault, for education begins with the milk. A child at the breast is like a tender branch that the gardener can train as he wills.

Jamal 9 Kamal 183 B.E.
ARMY OF LIGHT -- Generally, the Bahá’í community, but more particularly the "heavenly armies" -- "those souls", according to ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, "who are entirely freed from the human world, transformed into celestial spirits and have become divine angels. Such souls are the rays of the Sun of Reality who will illumine all the continents" (TDP 8.2).
