As to the fundamentals of teaching the Faith: know thou that
delivering the Message can be accomplished only through goodly deeds and
spiritual attributes, an utterance that is crystal clear and the happiness
reflected from the face of that one who is expounding the Teachings. It is
essential that the deeds of the teacher should attest the truth of his words.
Such is the state of whoso doth spread abroad the sweet savours of God and the
quality of him who is sincere in his faith.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the
Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
