Independence
No one can on his own achieve anything. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá must be well pleased and assist.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, The Compilation of Compilations vol II, p. 362
‘Abdu’l-Bahá said: Those who are working alone are like ants, but when they are united they will become as eagles. Those who work singly are as drops, but, when united, they will become a vast river carrying the cleansing water of life into the barren desert places of the world. Before the power of its rushing flood, neither misery, nor sorrow, nor any grief will be able to stand. Be united! It is rather dangerous to be an isolated drop. It might be spilled or blown away.

Quote of the Day
Istijlal 15 Jalal 183 B.E.
O my God, the lamps of guidance are extinguished; the fire of animosity is enkindled; wrath and antipathy are spread abroad and provocation and maliciousness are disseminated upon the face of the earth.
