Spiritual Springtime...4

"As we walked a few paces ahead of the others He (Abdul-Baha)

talked at length about Horizons. Of how the Sun of

Reality, like the physical sun, rose at different points, the

Sun of Moses at one point, the Sun of Jesus at another,

the Sun of Muhammad, the Sun of Bahá'u'lláh at still

others. But always the same Sun though the rising points

varied greatly. Always we must look for the light of the

Sun, He said, and not keep our eyes so firmly fixed on its

last point of rising that we fail to see its glory when it rises

in the new Spiritual Springtime. Once or twice He

stopped and, with His stick, drew on the sidewalk an

imaginary horizon and indicated the rising points of the

sun. A strange sight it must have been to the casual

passer-by."
