I ask God to help thee to become humble and submissive to
all of beloved of God. Be kind and easy and compassionate to all. And dispute
not with anybody over anything. Speak of the Divine Word. But if contradicted
by a certain person, do not argue with him, follow my steps in all matters and
take my disposition as an example for you in dealing with all persons. Rely
upon God, the Living, the Self Existent. (‘Abdu’l-Baha, excerpt from a Tablet
to Arthur Dodge, quoted by his son, William in a talk) (To listen to and read
