Reflections on true life
…. True life is not the life of the flesh but the life of the spirit.
'Abdu'l-Bahá
No matter how much man may acquire material virtues, he will not be able to realise and express the highest possibilities of life without spiritual graces.
'Abdu'l-Bahá
Man is in reality a spiritual being and only when he lives in the spirit is he truly happy.
'Abdu'l-Bahá
True bounty is that of heaven, spiritual, which gives life eternal. Follow this and thy heart will become as beautiful as a garden, thine eyes bright, thy spirit happy and thy thought a comfort to souls. We must look higher than all earthly thoughts; detach ourselves from every material idea, crave for the things of the spirit.
'Abdu'l-Bahá
… human happiness is founded upon spiritual behaviour.
'Abdu'l-Bahá
The body without spirit is not capable of real accomplishment. Although it may be in the utmost condition of beauty and excellence, it is, nevertheless, in need of the spirit.
'Abdu'l-Bahá
… All the sorrow and grief that exist come from the world of matter - the spiritual world bestows only the joy!
'Abdu'l-Bahá
No matter how far the material world advances, it cannot establish the happiness of mankind. Only when material and spiritual civilisation are linked and co-ordinated will happiness be assured.
