Bahá’í Quotes

Spiritual

First comes the spiritual, and then the material-however important in practice the latter may be.

Quote of the Day

Fidal 4 Baha 183 B.E.

Be not the slave of your moods, but their master. But if you are so angry, so depressed and so sore that your spirit cannot find deliverance and peace even in prayer, then quickly go and give some pleasure to someone lowly or sorrowful, or to a guilty or innocent sufferer! Sacrifice yourself, your talent, your time, your rest to another, to one who has to bear a heavier load than you.
