A Faith for Today

by ed in About the Baha'i Faith

Random Quote

The first teaching of Bahá’u’lláh is the duty incumbent upon all to investigate reality. What does it mean to investigate reality? It means that man must forget all hearsay and examine truth himself, for he does not know whether statements he hears are in accordance with reality or not.

— Abdu’l-Baha
