Desire
. . . now that the hour of its fruiting is come, strive that it may be protected, and be not consumed with the flame of desire and passion.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Persian Hidden Words 34
Quote of the Day
Istiqlal 8 Nur 183 B.E.
These friends are perfectly infatuated with Thy nearness; they have given their hearts for the beauty of Thy face; are devoted to Thy Kingdom and are intoxicated by the wine of belief. In the meeting of the covenant they are bearing in their hands the cup of anxiety, needing Thy benevolence and yearning for the heavenly blessings.
