abstract Referred to by Shoghi Effendi as "that marvelous collection of gem-like utterances," this volume of Baha'i scripture contains over 150 profound epigrammatic sayings. The Guardian ranked it as "of unsurpassed pre-eminence among the doctrinal and ethical writings" of Baha'u'llah. The translation by Shoghi Effendi with the assistance of some English friends (among whom were George Townshend, John Esslemont and Ethel Rosenberg) is the standard authoritative version.
notes Translated by Shoghi Effendi with the assistance of some English friends. See 1.3, 1.29, 1.49-1.56, 1.58-1.73, 1.143.
