We are striving with heart and soul, resting neither day nor
night, seeking not a moment’s ease, to make this world of man the mirror of the
unity of God. Then how much more must the beloved of the Lord reflect that
unity? And this cherished hope, this yearning wish of ours will be visibly
fulfilled only on the day when the true friends of God arise to carry out the
Teachings of the Abhá Beauty—may my life be a ransom for His lovers!
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
