> Could someone share what the "Bahai" version is for the quote?

Dear Gilberto, 

I found various similiar passages. Here is where it is found in 
Baha'u'llah's Writings: 

"Ye are all the leaves of one tree and the drops of one ocean."

(Baha'u'llah, Tablets of Baha'u'llah, p. 27)

And we have these passages from Abdu'l-Baha. 

. The glory of God has proclaimed a cause that until now none had 
heard. He addresses himself to the whole of humanity, saying: "O 
people of the world, ye are all the branches of one tree, the leaves 
of one branch, the drops of one sea."

(Abdu'l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 61)

Let this gathering be a foreshadowing of what will, in very truth, 
take place in this world, when every child of God realizes that they 
are leaves of one tree, flowers in one garden, drops in one ocean, and 
sons and daughters of one Father, whose name is love!

(Abdu'l-Baha, Paris Talks, p. 30)

O Thou Provider! The dearest wish of this servant of Thy Threshold is 
to behold the friends of east and west in close embrace; to see all 
the members of human society gathered with love in a single great 
assemblage, even as individual drops of water collected in one mighty 
sea; to behold them all as birds in one garden of roses, as pearls of 
one ocean, as leaves of one tree, as rays of one sun.

(Abdu'l-Baha, Selections from the Writings of Abdu'l-Baha, p. 
75)
Wherefore, O ye beloved of the Lord, bestir yourselves, do all in your 
power to be as one, to live in peace, each with the others: for ye are 
all the drops from but one ocean, the foliage of one tree, the pearls 
from a single shell, the flowers and sweet herbs from the same one 
garden.

(Abdu'l-Baha, Selections from the Writings of Abdu'l-Baha, p. 
280)

warmest, Susan

Re: Wrong quote attribution...

2006-09-06 Thread Gilberto Simpson

Could someone share what the "Bahai" version is for the quote? Is it
verbatim the same? I would actually be surprised if there weren't
other examples of similar statements. I mean, the Golden Rule has all
sorts of variations and echoes through human civilizations. Why
wouldn't other spiritual sayings be the same?

Dear Dick, 

I'm finding it credited to him all over the internet but nowhere does 
anyone give the source where it is quoted from.
