Bewildered
We were dismayed by his [Mírzá Yahyá ] deceitfulness -- nay, bewildered were all things visible and invisible.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Summons of the Lord of Hosts, p. 16
The Truth is easy to understand although the outward forms in which it is expressed bewilder the intelligence. As men grow they see the futility of man-made forms and despise them. Therefore many leave the churches, because the latter often emphasize the external only.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá in London, p. 57
Quote of the Day
Istiqlal 19 Kalimat 183 B.E.
When criticism and harsh words arise within a Bahá’í community there is no remedy except to put the past behind one and persuade all concerned to turn over a new leaf, and, for the sake of God and His Faith, refrain from mentioning the subjects which have led to misunderstanding and inharmony.
Shoghi Effendi – Directives of the Guardian, pp. 17-18
