Loneliness
Be not grieved if thou performest it thyself alone. Let God be all-sufficient for thee. Commune intimately with His Spirit, and be thou of the thankful.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 279
O Lord! Grant me communion with Thee in my loneliness, and be my companion in these foreign lands.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of the Divine Plan, p. 46
There is no harm in thy loneliness in those regions; for verily, the hosts of confirmation are thy help, thy Glorious Lord is thy protector and the angels of the Kingdom are thy fellow-speakers. Glad-tidings be unto thee for this! Blessed art thou for this!
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá v1, p. 61
Quote of the Day
Idal 4 Sultan 182 B.E.
The question of economics must commence with the farmer and then be extended to the other classes inasmuch as the number of farmers is greater than all other classes, many many times greater. Therefore, it is fitting that the economic problem be first solved with the farmer, for the farmer is the first active agent in the body politic.
