Thoughts on Children


In my anthology story, I have Abdu'l-Baha talk with two fictional characters--two young boys. Here is a statement from Abdu'l-Baha that sheds light on his views about children:

If a child be trained” ‘Abdu'l-Bahá says, “from his infancy, he will, through the loving care of the Holy Gardener, drink in the crystal waters of the spirit and of knowledge, like a young tree amid the rilling brooks.  And certainly he will gather to himself the bright rays of the Sun of Truth, and through its light and heat will grow ever fresh and fair in the garden of life.”
