If the material luxuries of the whole earth were available
to ‘Abdu'l-Baha, He would not think for one moment that there is such a thing
as comfort and luxury in the world. But when a soul perfuming fragrance wafts
from the rose-garden of the hearts of the friends to the nostrils of ‘Abdu’l-
Baha, such joy is realized that involuntarily I render thanksgiving unto the
Blessed Perfection Who has trained such servants.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet;
Star of the West, vol. 4, no. 3, April 28, 1913)
