Stories about 'Abdu'l-Bahá

“All are blind but you are endowed with sight. All are earthly but you are heavenly.”

Mahmud's Diary
October 21, 1912
Los Angeles, CA

As the time of departure grew near, the friends in Los Angeles were in a spiritual and prayerful mood. The Master spoke to them:

Thank the Lord that you have attained His eternal favors and have been blessed with seeing eyes. All are blind but you are endowed with sight. All are earthly but you are heavenly. Although you live on earth, you soar high in heaven. It is my hope that day by day you will seek assistance and will rise to promote the Word of God. Go every year to visit the grave of Mr. Chase on my behalf, for he was a sanctified soul; his station will be known later.
