Education - of Women
BAHA'O'LLAH declares the education of woman to be of more importance than that of man. If the mother be ignorant, even if the father have great knowledge, the child's education will be at fault, for education begins with the milk. A child at the breast is like a tender branch that the gardener can train as he wills.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Divine Philosophy, p. 86
Quote of the Day
Idal 15 Rahmat 183 B.E.
No true and faithful Bahá’í should in this day remain idle or seek what would give him comfort or even inner satisfaction. We should be constantly assailing the forces of darkness that have enveloped the earth and hasten the dawn of the new day foretold by Bahá’u’lláh.
Shoghi Effendi quoted in Hooper C. Dunbar’s “Forces of Our Time – The Dynamics of Light and Darkness”
