when full detachment is what is needed...1
"How great the difference between the condition of these people and the station of such valiant souls as have passed beyond the sea of names and pitched their tents upon the shores of the ocean of detachment.
Indeed none but a few of the existing generation hath yet earned the merit of hearkening unto the warblings of the doves of the all-highest Paradise.
“Few of My servants are truly thankful.”
People for the most part delight in superstitions.
They regard a single drop of the sea of delusion as preferable to an ocean of certitude.
By holding fast unto names they deprive themselves of the inner reality and by clinging to vain imaginings they are kept back from the Dayspring of heavenly signs.
God grant you may be graciously aided under all conditions to shatter the idols of superstition and to tear away the veils of the imaginations of men."
Bahá’u’llàh
