Spiritual Experiences
If we are going to have some deeply spiritual experience we can rest assured God will vouchsafe it to us without having to look for it.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 514
Spiritual experiences have undoubtedly great influence on us individually and, therefore, arouse deep interest, but of paramount importance in this day is to forget them and go out into the world trying to save the human race from its threatening condition. This is the call of the day, this is the duty of every soul who desires to follow the path traced by Bahá’u’lláh.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 522
Quote of the Day
Fidal 15 Sharaf 182 B.E.
Prosperity, contentment, and freedom, however much desired and conducive to the gladness of the human heart, can in no wise compare with the trials of . . . adversity in the pathway of God; for such exile and banishment are blessed by the divine favour, and are surely followed by the mercy of Providence.
