We contact God through the Holy Spirit appearing in His
Manifestations, and when our love of God is awakened thereby, our love
begins to embrace all mankind, in all levels of spiritual development.
Such love awakens the realization of the inter-relatedness of all
parts of creation, and that the thoughts and acts of humanity affect
the world around them, ---and today we see the effects of
materialistic civilizations on this earth. Loving greetings to
all......Dio
“ Know thou of a certainty that Love is the secret of God's holy
Dispensation, the manifestation of the All-Merciful, the fountain of
spiritual outpourings. Love is heaven's kindly light, the Holy
Spirit's eternal breath that vivifieth the human soul. Love is the
cause of God's revelation unto man, the vital bond inherent, in
accordance with the divine creation, in the realities of things. Love
is the one means that ensureth true felicity both in this world and
the next. Love is the light that guideth in darkness, the living link
that uniteth God with man, that assureth the progress of every
illumined soul. Love is the most great law that ruleth this mighty and
heavenly cycle, the unique power that bindeth together the divers
elements of this material world, the supreme magnetic force that
directeth the movements of the spheres in the celestial realms. Love
revealeth with unfailing and limitless power the mysteries latent in
the universe. Love is the spirit of life unto the adorned body of
mankind, the establisher of true civilization in this mortal world,
and the shedder of imperishable glory upon every high-aiming race and
nation
O ye beloved of the Lord! Strive to become the manifestations of
the love of God, the lamps of divine guidance shining amongst the
kindreds of the earth with the light of love and concord.”
(Abdu'l-Baha, Selections from the Writings of Abdu'l-Baha, pp. 27-2 |
