Bewildered
We were dismayed by his [Mírzá Yahyá ] deceitfulness -- nay, bewildered were all things visible and invisible.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Summons of the Lord of Hosts, p. 16
The Truth is easy to understand although the outward forms in which it is expressed bewilder the intelligence. As men grow they see the futility of man-made forms and despise them. Therefore many leave the churches, because the latter often emphasize the external only.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá in London, p. 57
Quote of the Day
Jamal 19 Rahmat 183 B.E.
Though single-handed, and no matter how great the apathy of the people around you may be, you should have faith that the hosts of the Kingdom are on your side, and that through their help you are bound to overcome the forces of darkness that are facing the Cause of God. Persevere, be happy and confident, therefore.
Shoghi Effendi – Quickeners of Mankind, p. 50
