The more the mirror is clear and pure the greater will the rays and the bounties of the Sun of Truth show forth from it. ~ Abdu'l-Baha, Tablets of Abdu'l-Baha v1, p. 157 O ye believers of God! I am pleased with you and seek for your assistance and confirmation. I hope that ye may, day by day, add to your love, steadfastness, purity of intention and service to the Cause of God. Upon ye be greeting and praise! ABDUL-BAHA ABBAS. ~ Abdu'l-Baha, Tablets of Abdu'l-Baha v1, p. iv Souls are like unto mirrors, and the bounty of God is like unto the sun. When the mirrors pass beyond all coloring and attain purity and polish, and are confronted with the sun, they will reflect in full perfection its light and glory. In this condition one should not consider the mirror, but the power of the light of the sun, which hath penetrated the mirror, making it a reflector of the heavenly glory. ~ Abdu'l-Baha, Tablets of Abdu'l-Baha v1, p. 19 |
