If the beloved of God in all America
strive for unity and harmony, attain perfect love and accord, and act according
to the divine teachings and the precepts of the Blessed Perfection, this will
prove a magnet attracting Abdu’l-Baha, so that, perchance, he may journey to
America.
But, until the light of oneness, unity and love shine forth from the lamp of
America, and the beloved act in accordance with the divine teachings and precepts
of the Blessed Perfection, and all the believers in America become united and
harmonious, my coming to America will be hindered -- nay, impossible.
(‘Abdu’l-Baha, from a Tablet, Star of the West, vol. 1, no. 16, December 31,
1910)
