Essential Oil

Make use of rose-water, and of pure perfume; this, indeed, is that which God hath loved from the beginning that hath no beginning, in order that there may be diffused from you what your Lord, the Incomparable, the All-Wise, desireth.

- Bahá’u’lláh, Kitáb-i-Aqdas, p. 47

Quote of the Day

Idal 7 Masail 182 B.E.

Ultimately, not even intellectual achievement satisfies our deepest needs.
