Guidance on Self Defence, Crime, Punishment, and Nonresistance

Scattering Angels

Today’s reading is from a long list of sources beginning with The Kitab-I-Aqdad by Baha’u’llah, pp 73, Some Answered Questions by Abdu’l-Baha, chapter 77, Guidance on Self-Defence by the Universal House of Justice written to the National Spiritual Assambly of the Bahá’ís of Canada dated 5-26-1969, a letter written on behalf of the Universal House of Justice fo an individual believer on 1-24-1993, Unfolding Destiny by Shoghi Effendi, page 427, Baha’u’llah and the New Era by J.E. Esslemont, pages 169-171. I continue reading The Hidden Words of Baha’u’llah with the 7th and 8th Hidden Word from the Persian. I close with a prayer by Baha’u’llah from the Baha’i Prayer Book, page 236-237.
