O SON OF SPIRIT!
I created thee rich, why dost thou bring thyself down to poverty? Noble I made thee, wherewith dost thou abase thyself? Out of the essence of knowledge I gave thee being, why seekest thou enlightenment from anyone beside Me? Out of the clay of love I molded thee, how dost thou busy thyself with another? Turn thy sight unto thyself, that thou mayest find Me standing within thee, mighty, powerful and self-subsisting. (Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words, no. 13) (To read ‘Abdu’l-Baha’s explanation of this passage please visit Daily Spiritual Food for Thought) (To read additional explanation provided by Shoghi Effendi please visit Daily Spiritual Food for Thought)
