The Mashriqu\u2019l-Adhk\u00e1r is the dawning-place of light and the gathering place of the righteous.
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

\u2026 all should gather together, and, harmoniously attuned one to another, engage in prayer; with the result that out of this coming together, unity and affection shall grow and flourish in the human heart.
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

Truly, pure and radiant hearts are the dawning-places of the mention of God from which the melodies of supplication and prayer continually reach the Concourse on high. I beg of God to make each of your hearts a divine temple in which the lamp of the Most Great Guidance may be lit.
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

The Mashriqu\u2019l-Adhk\u00e1r is a divine edifice in the nether world and a means for attaining the oneness of humanity, inasmuch as all the peoples of the world shall gather in fellowship and harmony within the Mashriqu'l-Adhk\u00e1r \u2026
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

It may assume any form, for even if it be an underground pit, that pit shall become a sheltering paradise, an exalted bower, and a garden of delight.
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

What bounty greater than this that science should be considered as an act of worship and art as service to the Kingdom of God.
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

In the great dispensation, art is identical with an act of worship and this is a clear text of the Blessed Perfection.
\u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1

I rejoice to hear that thou takest pains with thine art, for in this wonderful new age, art is worship. The more thou strivest to perfect it, the closer wilt thou come to God. What bestowal could be greater than this, that one\u2019s art should be even as the act of worshiping the Lord? That is to say, when thy fingers grasp the paint brush, it is as if thou wert at prayer in the Temple.
