Hugging
The pilgrim’s note reports the Master as saying: ‘Women and men must not embrace each other when not married, or not about to be married. They must not kiss each other If they wish to greet each other, or comfort each other, they may take each other by the hand.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 440-441
Quote of the Day
Idal 17 Ala 182 B.E.
In the Holy Writings of former religions we read how Moses heard the voice of God through the Burning Bush or how the Dove descended upon Christ or how Muhammad received His Revelation through the Angel Gabriel. All these are different symbols of the same entity, the Holy Spirit, which acts as an intermediary between God and His Manifestations.
