Imagine how we will sound when all of us on the planet have opened our hearts, praying to Creator to be “united in our views and thoughts, with our purposes harmonized to exalt Thy Word amidst mankind.”
“Thus should it be among the children of men! The diversity in the human family should be the cause of love and harmony, as it is in music where many different notes blend together in the making of a perfect chord. If you meet those of different race and colour from yourself, do not mistrust them and withdraw yourself into your shell of conventionality, but rather be glad and show them kindness. Think of them as different coloured roses growing in the beautiful garden of humanity, and rejoice to be among them.” – ‘Abdu’l-Baha, Paris Talks, October 28, 1911
