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.

Quote of the Day
Istijlal 17 Sharaf 182 B.E.
Thou knowest that the people are encircled with pain and calamities and are environed with hardships and trouble. Every trial doth attack man and every dire adversity doth assail him like unto the assault of a serpent. There is no shelter and asylum for him except under the wing of Thy protection, preservation, guard and custody.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá – Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá v3, p. 619
