There are imperfections in every human being, and

There are imperfections in every human being, and you will always become unhappy if you look toward the people themselves. But if you look toward God, you will love them and be kind to them, for the world of God is the world of perfection and complete mercy. Therefore, do not look at the shortcomings of anybody; see with the sight of forgiveness. The imperfect eye beholds imperfections. The eye that covers faults looks toward the Creator of souls. You must love and be kind to everybody, care for the poor, protect the weak, heal the sick, teach and educate the ignorant. - #AbdulBaha⠀

Baha’is all around the world will celebrate for

Baha’is all around the world will celebrate for the next twelve days the “King of Festivals,” the holiest days of the Baha’i year – the beautiful season of Ridvan. 🌹 The Baha’i Faith began on a beautiful, rose-filled island called the Garden of Ridvan (pronounced rez-vahn), which means paradise. That fragrant, birdsong-filled garden witnessed the birth of the world’s newest independent religion on this day in April of 1863. «It is a day of joy, a time of happiness, a period of spiritual growth.» – #AbdulBaha To lean more about the Festival of Ridvan, visit Bahaiteachings.org 🔗 #Bahai #Spirituality #Ridvan #BahaiFatih

Progress is of two kinds, material and spiritual.

Progress is of two kinds, material and spiritual. The former is attained through observation of the surrounding existence and constitutes the foundation of civilization. Spiritual progress is through the breaths of the Holy Spirit and is the awakening of the conscious soul of man to perceive the reality of divinity. Material progress insures the happiness of the human world. Spiritual progress insures the happiness and eternal continuance of the soul. - #AbdulBaha #Bahai #Spirituality #Soul
