Shoulds
The Divine religions, the holy precepts, the heavenly teachings, are the unassailable basis of human happiness, and that the peoples of the world can hope for no real relief or deliverance without this one great remedy. This panacea must, however, be administered by a wise and skilled physician, for in the hands of an incompetent all the cures that the Lord of men has ever created to heal men's ills could produce no health, and would on the contrary only destroy the helpless and burden the hearts of the already afflicted.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, The Secret of Divine Civilization, p. 98
Quote of the Day
Idal 18 Mashiyyat 183 B.E.
They that have disbelieved in God and rebelled against His sovereignty are the helpless victims of their corrupt inclinations and desires. These shall return to their abode in the fire of hell: wretched is the abode of the deniers!
Bahá’u’lláh – Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 284
