As the East and
the West are illumined by one sun, so all races, nations, and creeds shall be
seen as the servants of the One God. The whole earth is one home, and all
peoples, did they but know it, are bathed in the oneness of God’s mercy. God
created all. He gives sustenance to all. He guides and trains all under the
shadow of his bounty. We must follow the example God Himself gives us, and do
away with all disputations and quarrels.
(‘Abdu’l-Baha,
from a talk, London, September 29, 1911; ‘’Abdu’l-Baha in London’)
