"Barter not the garden of eternal delight for the dust-heap of a mortal world."



"O OFFSPRING OF DUST! Be not content with the ease of a passing day, and deprive not thyself of everlasting rest. Barter not the garden of eternal delight for the dust-heap of a mortal world. Up from thy prison ascend unto the glorious meads above, and from thy mortal cage wing thy flight unto the paradise of the Placeless."

-Bahá'u'lláh, The Hidden Words of Bahá’u’lláh, Persian No. 39, p. 36
