In this day, the one favoured at the Threshold of the Lord
is he who handeth round the cup of faithfulness; who bestoweth, even upon his
enemies, the jewel of bounty, and lendeth, even to his fallen oppressor, a
helping hand; it is he who will, even to the fiercest of his foes, be a loving
friend. These are the Teachings of the Blessed Beauty, these the counsels of
the Most Great Name. - ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the Writings of
‘Abdu’l-Baha)
