Independence
No one can on his own achieve anything. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá must be well pleased and assist.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, The Compilation of Compilations vol II, p. 362
‘Abdu’l-Bahá said: Those who are working alone are like ants, but when they are united they will become as eagles. Those who work singly are as drops, but, when united, they will become a vast river carrying the cleansing water of life into the barren desert places of the world. Before the power of its rushing flood, neither misery, nor sorrow, nor any grief will be able to stand. Be united! It is rather dangerous to be an isolated drop. It might be spilled or blown away.

Quote of the Day
Fidal 2 Ala 182 B.E.
Any soul from among the believers of Bahá’u’lláh who attains to this station, will become known as the Apostle of Bahá’u’lláh. Therefore strive ye with heart and soul -- so that ye may reach this lofty and exalted position, be established on the throne of everlasting glory, and crown your heads with the shining diadem of the Kingdom, whose brilliant jewels may irradiate upon centuries and cycles.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá – Bahá’í World Faith, p. 423
