I've been a Baha'i since 2005 and it's difficult to comprehend, to me.
This is the way I see it. Nobody needs to be a Baha'i. Per Baha'u'llah, no matter what a soul thinks or doesn't think, do or doesn't do, everyone in the past, present and future will go to heaven/God.
There is no Hell, nor is there any judgement on a soul while on Earth. Kinda like what happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas.
By Baha'u'llah guidance nobody has any reason to fear death.
Which relieves us of wasting valuable time on rituals, etc.
The primary reason to become a member is that you believe in what Baha'u'llah says regarding the urgent need to be available to teach others.
To teach their is a single source of our creation, that regardless of skin color, gender, etc, we are all one single family of people.
That not until we accept that, we will have stepped up to cause world peace with mutual love and cooperation around the planet.
Mainly due to requirements of, that gross poverty will not be allowed, that excessive wealth has to be eliminated voluntarily, that one must not be a racist, and accept that the souls of both genders and all souls are equal in the eye of God.
So, ideally, people in other faiths, if they actually live their Guidance from God. Which say we need to be honest, kind, compassionate, respectful to all others. The goal of world peace is just as reachable.
In summary, take care to tend to your spiritual improvement through action, but focus on creating a world of peace.
My reasons for this is that I seem to see other Baha'i's over focused on trying to be perfect and what are others doing or not doing!
