Spiritual Experiences
If we are going to have some deeply spiritual experience we can rest assured God will vouchsafe it to us without having to look for it.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 514
Spiritual experiences have undoubtedly great influence on us individually and, therefore, arouse deep interest, but of paramount importance in this day is to forget them and go out into the world trying to save the human race from its threatening condition. This is the call of the day, this is the duty of every soul who desires to follow the path traced by Bahá’u’lláh.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 522
Quote of the Day
Jalal 6 Kalimat 183 B.E.
But man hath perversely continued to serve his lustful appetites . . . With this, and with the perpetrating of vile and ignoble acts, his attention was engrossed, and he abandoned the temperance and moderation of a natural way of life. The result was the engendering of diseases both violent and diverse.
