Captive - Thoughts
. . . watch daily your words and deeds . . . .
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Lights of Guidance, p. 213
The people, therefore, must be set completely free from their old patterns of thought, that all their attention may be focused upon these new principles, for these are the light of this time and the very spirit of this age.

Quote of the Day
Istijlal 15 Masail 182 B.E.
As regards the question about a person who is mentally ill attending the Feasts, anybody who is well enough mentally to attend a Bahá’í Feast and understand what it is all about is certainly well enough to be a voting member. Only people who are very seriously deranged mentally and confined to institutions or under constant supervision should be deprived of their voting rights.
