The Blessed Beauty [Baha’u’llah] said; “All are the fruits
of one tree and the leaves of one branch". He likened the world of
existence to one tree and all the souls to leaves, blossoms and fruits.
Therefore all the branches, leaves, blossoms and fruits must be in the utmost
of freshness, and the bringing about of this delicacy and sweetness depends
upon union and fellowship. Therefore they must assist each other with all their
power and seek everlasting life.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet, Star of the
West, vol. 11, no. 8, August 1, 1920)
