Bahá’í Quotes

Noble

Noble have I created thee, yet thou hast abased thyself. Rise then unto that for which thou wast created.

- Bahá’u’lláh, The Arabic Hidden Words #22

Noble I made thee, wherewith dost thou abase thyself? Out of the essence of knowledge I gave thee being, why seekest thou enlightenment from anyone beside Me? Out of the clay of love I molded thee, how dost thou busy thyself with another? Turn thy sight unto thyself, that thou mayest find Me standing within thee, mighty, powerful and self-subsisting.

- Bahá’u’lláh, The Arabic Hidden Words #13

Quote of the Day

Fidal 8 Izzat 183 B.E.

The Assemblies should evidence not even the least trace of dictatorial assertiveness, but should remember that most of the sins of the believers are the signs of immaturity. These friends should be nursed and assisted into a fuller understanding of their responsibilities as Bahá’ís and encouraged to conduct themselves in a Bahá’í manner.
