Accusation
Man must seek to gain the acceptance of God and not that of the different classes of men. If one is praised and chosen by God, the accusation of all the creatures will cause no loss to him; and if the man is not accepted in the threshold of God, the praise and admiration of all men will be of no use to him.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá v1, p. 158
We are loath to mention such things, neither have We had, nor do We have now, any desire to complain against Our accuser.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 34-35
Quote of the Day
Fidal 4 Baha 183 B.E.
Be not the slave of your moods, but their master. But if you are so angry, so depressed and so sore that your spirit cannot find deliverance and peace even in prayer, then quickly go and give some pleasure to someone lowly or sorrowful, or to a guilty or innocent sufferer! Sacrifice yourself, your talent, your time, your rest to another, to one who has to bear a heavier load than you.
