Cleanse
Cleanse from your hearts the love of worldly things, from your tongues every remembrance except His remembrance, from your entire being whatsoever may deter you from beholding His face, or may tempt you to follow the promptings of your evil and corrupt inclinations. Let God be your fear, O people, and be ye of them that tread the path of righteousness.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 275
Quote of the Day
Kamal 18 Mulk 182 B.E.
. . . if we spontaneously desire to acknowledge we have been wrong in something and that we have some fault of character, and ask another person's forgiveness or pardon, we are quite free to do so. The Guardian wants to point out, however, that we are not obliged to do so. It rests entirely with the individual.
From a letter written by the Universal House of Justice to a National Spiritual Assembly – 19 March, 1973
