Unity's Circle

Jamal (Beauty), 6 Qudrat (Power) 177 B.E. - Sunday, November 8, 2020

"Bahá’u’lláh has drawn the circle of unity, He has made a design for the uniting of all the peoples, and for the gathering of them all under the shelter of the tent of universal unity. This is the work of the Divine Bounty, and we must all strive with heart and soul until we have the reality of unity in our midst, and as we work, so will strength be given unto us. Leave all thought of self, and strive only to be obedient and submissive to the Will of God. In this way only shall we become citizens of the Kingdom of God, and attain unto life everlasting."

'Abdu'l-Baha12

Unity's circle is drawn,
it encompasses all humanity--
no matter what the color,
the creed,
the nation,
or the culture--
we are all one species,
one family.
