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.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Persian Hidden Words 34
Quote of the Day
Jalal 12 Izzat 183 B.E.
If individuals with mental disorders are repeatedly writing letters or making phone calls to the Assembly, it may wish to appoint a liaison with a capacity to listen to interact with the individual. It may be helpful to assist people to clarify and focus their thinking by asking, “Why are you telling me that?” It is also possible to politely interrupt a flow of monologue that is unproductive.
