those bars that keep us from our fulfillment...

It was a remarkable experience,

hearing one who had passed along the prison path for forty years declare

"There is no prison but the prison self;"

and it drove conviction to one's mind

as this white-robed messenger from the East pointed the way out,

-- not by the path called "Renunciation,"

but "Unattachment;" Radiant Acquiescence

-- the Shining Pathway out of the

"greater prison of self"

as 'Abdu'l-Bahá so beautifully terms

those bars that keep us from our fulfillment.

Zamias or Cycads ...ancient plants that created vast forests millions of years ago. They grow very slowly, at 2m high they could be around 2000 years old. This variety only grows around and in the Jarrah forest regains of Western Australia's southwestern corner.

 

Zamias or Cycads are a ancient group of plants which look palm-like. There have male and female plants. The female plants produce large, pineapple-like cones containing large red-orange seeds.
