Impressions
The animal spirit is the virtue perceptive resulting from the admixture and absorption of the vital elements generated in the heart, which apprehend sense-impressions. The human spirit consists of the rational, or logical, reasoning faculty, which apprehends general ideas and things intelligible and perceptible . . . for these . . . spirits there is no restitution or "return," but they are subordinate to reversions and production and corruption.

Quote of the Day
Fidal 12 Mulk 182 B.E.
Ya Bahá'u'l-Abhá is an invocation meaning: 'O Thou Glory of Glories'! 'Allah-u-Abhá' is a greeting which means: God the All-Glorious'. Both refer to Bahá’u’lláh.
