Egotism
Men keep their possessions for their own enjoyment and do not share sufficiently with others the bounty received from God. Spring is thus changed into the winter of selfishness and egotism.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá in London, p. 82
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
