Here are, very briefly explained, some of the principles
of Bahá’u’lláh.
In short, it behoves us all to be lovers of
truth. Let us seek her in every season and in every country, being careful

it may arise. Let us inhale the perfume of the rose from the midst
of thorns which surround it; let us drink the running water from every pure spring.

Paris Talks, Pages: 133 - 134)
