They who are the people
of God have no ambition except to revive the world, to ennoble its life, and
regenerate its peoples.
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah'; Ruhi Book 5)
Things to center one’s thoughts on
Do not busy yourselves in your own concerns; let your
thoughts be fixed upon that which will rehabilitate the fortunes of mankind and
sanctify the hearts and souls of men.
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Gleanings from the
Writings of Baha’u’llah'; Ruhi Book 5)
We must “must shine out like a lighted taper”
…a Bahá'í is one who embodieth all the perfections,... he
must shine out like a lighted taper…
(‘Abdu'l-Baha, Selections from the
Writings of 'Abdu'l-Baha)
“to perceive with the eye of God”
Verily I say! No one hath apprehended the root of this
Cause. It is incumbent upon everyone, in this day, to perceive with the eye of
God, and to hearken with His ear. Whoso beholdeth Me with an eye besides Mine
own will never be able to know Me.
(Baha’u’llah, quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The Advent of
Divine Justice’)
