Heaven and Hell
Heaven and hell are conditions within our own beings.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 519
But the paradise and hell of existence are found in all the worlds of God, whether in this world or in the spiritual heavenly worlds.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Bahá’í World Faith, p. 323
Think ye of love and good fellowship as the delights of heaven, think ye of hostility and hatred as the torments of hell.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, p. 244
Quote of the Day
Istijlal 2 Ayyam-i-Ha 182 B.E.
There is no question as to the merits and great services rendered by Amnesty International, nor of the parallels between a number of its goals and those of the Bahá’í Faith. However, problems could arise if you, as a member of the organization, were called upon to undertake actions which would be politically hazardous to Bahá’ís residing in other lands, or which conflict with Bahá’í principles.
