Trouble
Generally speaking nine-tenths of the friends' troubles are because they don't do the Bahá’í thing, in relation to each other, to the administrative bodies or in their personal lives.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 113
Quote of the Day
Kamal 18 Mashiyyat 182 B.E.
Be sensitive for the possibility of prior exposure to severe violence, such as a personal or family history of trauma from torture, mutilation, war atrocities, gang rape, arson, bombings, lynchings, or other extreme forms of violence. Prior exposure to other forms of violence may exacerbate the effects of domestic violence.
