Servant
But those who have been servants of the divine beauty are never forgotten. The result of their works is everywhere visible. What king is there of two thousand years ago whose kingdom has lived in the hearts? But those disciples who were devoted to God -- poor people who had neither fortune nor position -- are today trees bearing fruit. Their banner is raised higher every day.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Divine Philosophy, p. 137
Quote of the Day
Kamal 19 Jalal 183 B.E.
Sin is the state of man in the world of the baser nature, for in nature exist defects such as injustice, tyranny, hatred, hostility, strife: these are characteristics of the lower plane of nature. These are the sins of the world, the fruits of the tree from which Adam did eat.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá – Paris Talks, p. 177
