I wish you to study the works of the Blessed Beauty and to
live according to His teaching. The basis of the teaching of Baha’u’llah is as
follows: Bear in your heart great love to all races on earth, to the end
that unity maybe established between them. Take an interest in everyone and
find out how you can help them, so that all may see that your love is truly
universal. Do the Will of God, do not only speak about it; the elect of God do
this. People do much speaking to advance their own glory and to make themselves
appear superior to their neighbors. But if you do the Will of God and do not
blazon it abroad, then you will change the whole world. They who do most speak
least. - ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a talk in Paris, October 17, 1911; Star of the West,
vol. 2, no. 16, December 31, 1911)
