Priorities
The Guardian attaches the greatest importance to your work; and is delighted to see that you are carrying on your various projects with so much enthusiasm and devotion. It would be ideal if an offer, such as that made, could be accepted; but as the Cause has so many burdens to bear at this time, we are forced to do as ‘Abdu’l-Bahá said -- give up the important for the most important.
- Shoghi Effendi, The Compilation of Compilations vol II, p. 116
Quote of the Day
Istiqlal 7 Baha 183 B.E.
If he exercises his anger and wrath against the bloodthirsty tyrants who are like ferocious beasts, it is very praiseworthy; but if he does not use these qualities in a right way, they are blameworthy.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá – Some Answered Questions, p. 215
