Abdu’l-Bahá - Hurts
My heart aches, for I note with intense regret that the attention of the people is nowhere directed toward that which is worthy of this day and time. The Sun of Truth has risen above the world but we are ensnared in the dark of our imaginings. The waters of the Most Great Sea are surging all around us, while we are parched and weak with thirst. The divine bread is coming down from heaven, and yet we grope and stumble in a famine-stricken land.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, The Secret of Divine Civilization, p. 50
Quote of the Day
Istijlal 12 Mashiyyat 183 B.E.
Astronomy is a science, astrology does not come under the same category, but we should be patient with people who believe in it, and gradually wean them away from reliance on such things.
Shoghi Effendi – Lights of Guidance, p. 515
