Follow not the promptings of the self, for it summoneth
insistently to wickedness and lust…
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
Deeds
Occupy thyself, during these fleeting days of thy life, with
such deeds as will diffuse the fragrance of Divine good pleasure, and will be
adorned with the ornament of His acceptance.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son
of the Wolf’)
The “most great healing for the disease of self and passion”
Verily, I say, fasting is the supreme remedy and the most
great healing for the disease of self and passion.
- Baha’u’llah (Compilation on
‘The Importance of Obligatory Prayer and Fasting’, prepared by Research
Department of the Universal House of Justice)
The “sun” and “moon” of the “religion of God”
Verily, the religion of God is like unto heaven; fasting is
its sun, and obligatory prayer is its moon.
- Baha’u’llah
