His Reality: To 'Abdu'l-Baha
His Reality:
To 'Abdu'l-Baha

My name is 'Abdu'l-Bahá. My qualification is 'Abdu'l-Bahá. My reality is 'Abdu'l-Bahá. My praise is 'Abdu'l-Bahá. Thraldom to the Blessed Perfection is my glorious and refulgent diadem, and servitude to all the human race my perpetual religion... No name, no title, no mention, no commendation have I, nor will ever have, except 'Abdu'l-Bahá. This is my longing. This is my greatest yearning. This is my eternal life. This is my everlasting glory."
‘Abdu’l-Baha123


His name
is his reality,
and his qualifications.

His religion
is servitude to humanity
and to Baha'u'llah--
the Blessed Perfection.

He is the perfect example
of obedience
to the laws
and the ordinances
send down
through the Pen of Glory.
