The more we search for ourselves, the less likely we are to
find ourselves; and the more we search for God, and to serve our fellow-men,
the more profoundly will we become acquainted with ourselves, and the more
inwardly assured. This is one of the great spiritual laws of life. (From a letter
written
on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, February 18,
1954; Lights of Guidance)
