The Universal Palace of Order

UNIVERSAL PALACE OF ORDER

The world order is established on the foundation of knowledge. The edifice of all the hopes

of mankind for the unity and oneness of governments in the world must but be raised on the

foundation of knowledge. The light of guidance and peace will dawn therefrom. However, the

Pen of INSAN declares that the transformation of governments in the world into one World

Government is impossible; because the culture, intellectual standard and level of understanding

of countries are not uniform. Moreover, subjection to one form of government, in view of the

past history of the world and superiority of one race over the other, is a sheer impossibility.

Likewise, complete submission of the countries of the world to one form of religious order or

any organization set up by human hands till the present times, like the United Nations, has,

undoubtedly, not led the society of mankind to peace and prosperity. For this reason, that,

which can be the cause of peace, happiness and prosperity of the peoples of the world, could be

nothing less than an order, the foundation of which is laid on knowledge. This world order must

be constituted in such way that independence of the governments of the world and freedom of

the peoples to maintain their own culture, civility and human perfection, should be its real goal.

Moreover, the learned men of exalted ranks from all the countries in their own specialized

fields should organize doctrinal and secular assemblies and carry the world by means of their

skilled knowledge to relative perfection. An illustration of this is given in the Book of INSAN.

This world order presented to mankind by the Pen of INSAN is for the happiness of

mankind and approves the independence of countries and governments of the world to develop

their potentialities and educate their children. An order established thus, in the illumines

atmosphere amidst the governments of the world, having resemblance with the heaven

embracing different kinds of shining stars will, by virtue of its goodwill, peace, amity and

perfection, lead the mankind to eternal bliss.

I

The Pen of INSAN presents an Order, which is established on the foundation of Knowledge

for the prosperity of the world. The scientists and the learning ones of the world having relative

perfection in skill and knowledge of their specialized fields must congregate from all over the

world, hold deliberations and adopt resolutions for the advancement of knowledge in their

specialized fields.

To begin with, an Order must be established for each branch of knowledge, and this Order

must be universal, just and world embracing. Thus the foundation of the Order is knowledge,

and the foundation of knowledge rests on Order. In short, every prudent man with a little

concentration can understand what has been explained here in simple words. If the Pen of

INSAN were to expound in terms beyond the comprehension of the people of the world the

majority would be deprived of understanding the Order. Now, it is being explained in simple

words so that the intents and purposes may be clear.

For the reason that the needs of mankind are manifold, these should be classified and

organized, systematically and scientifically. This holds good, for example, in the science of

physical health where the learned ones of exalted ranks of medical sciences must cooperate in

the treatment of human diseases, so that all mankind is led to health. Physical soundness will

2

lead to cheerfulness of spirit and then the spirit will be capable of understanding realities, and

this is an important truth. According to an ancient proverb, the sound man means 'sound mind

in sound body'. The foremost crusade of the World Health Organization is against the onslaught

of diseases, which afflict human beings. Simply stated, the physicians, in collaboration with the

medical experts of the world, must lay the foundation of this holy crusade in the International

House of Health for the welfare of the people of the entire world. Consider, how important is

this service and a great step towards the establishment of the order and welfare of mankind –

this holy crusade against the cause of diseases, the liberation of the oppressed from the

onslaught of gradual death, the rescue of innocent children from the dangers of malnutrition

and the liberation of the deprived and oppressed resulting from war and clash of ideologies.

Every man can render help to the utmost of his capacity, and a universally elected congress,

wherein will gather representatives of all countries, will resolve the essentially important

matters.

This is the first pillar of the Palace of Prosperity of the world which is based on the human

values of mercy and kindness, transcending differences of colors, races and religions, and

liberating the sons of man from the clutches of tyranny. The champions of this organization are

enrolled in the scroll of the Heaven of Salvation of Men as eternal stars. This International

House of Health which, with its objectives, has already come into existence by itself and

developing towards perfection, has been explained in a simple way, so that men may turn their

thoughts to it, transcending their creeds, politics and religions. At all stages good will,

humanitarian aims, and loving kindness must be kept in view. This institution does not interfere

at all with the governments of the world, and it is for the salvation and happiness of mankind

because pain and disease are experienced by every human being. Every man praises attainment

of good health and relief from sufferings and would hail this crusade. Every good-hearted

person would naturally cooperate and aid in this crusade. This is but one stage, one pillar and

one column of the foundation of the Universal Palace of Order, which has been explained in the

illustration.1

II

In the second stage, following the formation of the International Houses of the different

fields of knowledge, in each house a body should be elected which will shoulder the

responsibility of the House and act as its plural chairman. Although in the Book of INSAN one

person is alluded to by the sign (+) yet, what is meant, is the "chairman body", and it is

indicative of the unity, singleness of thought and centralization of that chairman body of every

International House. For example, in the process of the constitution of the International House

of Law, there will be a congress of learned ones and doctors of law; there will necessarily be

hundreds of them, and in that congress they must elect from amongst themselves a number of

learned ones of exalted ranks who will shoulder the responsibility and leadership of that

institution. Unquestionably, they should have equal votes without any exceptions whatsoever.

The chairman bodies, with administrative and coordinative functions, will furnish the results of

deliberations and resolutions of the International Houses of Knowledge for scrutiny at the third

stage that is the World Chairman Body.

1 See illustration at the end.

3

The third stage is the universally elected body, which is the central administrative and

coordinative body of all the chairman bodies of the International Houses of Knowledge. This

central organizing body holds the position of Universal Palace of Order which should have a

just and universal view of the resolutions of the International Houses of the different fields of

sciences. It holds the third, the highest and the ultimate station in the Universal Order, and

beyond doubt, it should be constituted by universal elections. This Chairman Body (shown by

symbol 'I' which refers to unity)2 holds a station above the chairman bodies of the International

Houses of Knowledge. In this manner, after triple deliberations, the decisions taken will be

presented and taught to the world.

So the three stages of Universal Order are: -

• The first stage is the foundation of the International Houses of Knowledge through

election in all the countries.

• On formation and institution of the International Houses of Knowledge, election in each

House of an administrative and coordinative body.

• The election of a Central Chairman Body which holds the position of the Universal

Order which is superior to the Chairman Bodies of the International Houses of

Knowledge, and which holds the station of the Center of the Universal Palace of Order.

This entire organization is called the Universal Palace of Order, which rules the world with

Justice and the sword of Knowledge and imparts eternal happiness to the different governments

of the world.

III

The three stages of the Universal Palace of Order are: -

• International Houses of Knowledge.

• The Chairman Bodies as Heads.

• The Center of Universal Palace of Order.

The coordinating bodies of the second stage must hold general consultations for the

exchange of their views. Sharing the views of the International Houses in each sphere of

science leads to unity of knowledge and their resolutions influence one another. For instance, a

resolution relating to International Law will undoubtedly influence the other fields of

knowledge. For this reason, the Chairman Bodies of the International Houses of Knowledge

must hold joint meetings between two or more Houses because such a liaison is most important

and is a cause of unity.

For example, when a resolution is made in the International House of Law, this resolution

must be approved and the coordinative body of the International House of Law must sent its

viewpoint to the consideration of other bodies of the International Houses of Knowledge. After

complete deliberation and consultation and fresh decision, it must be sent to Central Organizing

Body, which is the Center of the Universal Palace of Order. After its approval, it must be

2 See illustration at the end.

4

promulgated to the countries of the world, so that it may benefit mankind and lead to

reconciliation of thoughts. The Universal Palace of Order is free in approval and execution of

its decisions until they are repealed.

The decisions of this Central Body are not mandatory on the countries and the governments

of the world, for they are meant only for knowledge and teaching. Nevertheless, the

governments of the countries should make efforts for the implementation of the

recommendations and correlate their administration and ways of life to knowledge, reason and

international goodwill, shunning misunderstandings whether national, religious or political.

This is object of the Universal Palace of Order revealed by the Pen of INSAN.

IV

The Universal Order must traverse three stages: -

• Preliminary stage which is the classification of knowledge and of the needs of mankind

• The election of the learned ones from all over the countries and in all the fields of

knowledge.

• Their congress in the particular International House of Knowledge.

There must be no interference of the sciences with each other and they must be independent

in their organization. The International House of Justice will be constituted of doctors of human

rights and they will ponder and deliberate upon justice in the world. The International House of

Health will be constituted of medical experts of the world and will deliberate and take decisions

in the fields of medical sciences and world health. These are but two illustrations of the needs

of humanity, each House having its own title, each independent in its sphere with membership

made up of leaders skilled in specific fields of knowledge and each elected from all the

countries of the world.

We have given but two examples of the International Houses of Knowledge, each of which

is specialized in its own field, and there can be many more. In the Book of INSAN, by way of

illustration, we have tabulated the needs of humanity into 24 Houses such as justice, health,

law, economics etc. This is an initial stage of tabulation of different sciences to regulate order,

symmetry and independence and their number can be multiplied.

The Universal Order is the manifestation of the intuition of INSAN. It has no connection,

whatsoever, with any form of politics, government, axioms of knowledge, ancient or modern

philosophies.

This Universal Order will be stable because it is securely founded upon knowledge. The

countries of the world will send to this House their representatives, their intellectuals through

general, just and independent elections.

The Universal Order transcends the concept of "Government".

This Universal Order has no resemblance with the World Leagues, and existing

governments.

5

This Universal Order is founded upon knowledge, which is the ruling factor in the realm

inter-connecting the governments of the world.

This Universal Order is like a crown, uniting the governments of the countries of the world,

imparting to them the beauty of prosperity and progress, promoting the stability of the

governments and the peoples in their own ways, the stability of the countries of the world in

their territorial integrity, non-interference of countries and governments with the independence

and the regimes of other countries and non-interference of the Universal Order with the

national modes of life and governments.

The Universal Order has the position of the rule of knowledge over the world and it assures

the atmosphere of unity, progress, friendliness and goodwill amongst the governments.

V

In consideration of different conditions prevailing in the world, we have added one gate to

the gates of the World Order, so that the people may attain lasting peace. This gate provides for

migration, and it may be called the gate of the International House of Trans-Immigration. This

gate will apply to the countries as they are bounded today and shall have an international status.

The countries are the habitat of the peoples of the world, belonging to various races, as has

been previously stated in detail. At present, due to the necessities of life, travel, place of birth,

environmental circumstances, acquisition of knowledge, free or forced emigration,

colonization, transition due to conditions of living, love of people for their kind, love resulting

in marriage, results of war, an admixture of various races and peoples has come into being on

the surface of the globe.

This gate refers to the life of human beings, for, in addition to the right to practice their own

culture, their religions, their beliefs, the people have a right to live. Now, we see that some

countries are so over crowded that the people have no room in which to move. Millions of

individuals are crowded on an island, while, on the other hand, there are thousands of acres of

land sleeping under the expanse of sky, lying waste. Only half of that wasteland could support a

very large number of persons.

In addition to rights accruing under politics, religion and nationality, on the grounds of

humanity alone, the Pen of INSAN bestows on them the right to live and enjoy life in common

with every one else. Millions of people are in need of arable land, bread and vegetables for

their daily life, but due to excessive population, no land is available for them. On the other hand

some countries and continents, actuated by fear, have arisen to protect their vast expanses. Is it

desirable for any cultured human being to be willing to see his kind die for lack of bread,

crying with dried lips for water? While on this same globe, there are thousands of high and low

plots of land waiting to be cultivated. Is this befitting for humanity? No, by God!

An International institution devoted to trans-immigration, like the other Houses in the

Universal Palace of Order, should be established and it should place these vast expanses at the

disposal of the deprived people, bringing within their reach all the necessities and means that

they require. Should it be necessary, the host country may with hold from the immigrants the

rights to interfere in its administrative affairs, limiting their rights to land and water.

Of course, this step must be preceded by an intensive study of the needs of the races,

nations, cultures, states and politics etc.
