| Bahai Temple in Colombia |
The Mashriqu'l-Adhkar [Baha’i temple] is the most
important matter and the greatest divine institute. Consider how the first
institute of his holiness Moses, after his exodus from Egypt was the 'Tent of
Martyrdom' which he raised and which was the traveling temple. It was a tent
which they pitched in the desert wherever they abode, and worshipped in it.
Likewise, after his holiness Christ-May the spirit of the world be a sacrifice
to Him-the first institute by the disciples was a temple. They planned a church
in every country. Consider the Gospel, (i. e., read it), and the importance of
the Mashriqu'l-Adhkar will become evident. - ‘Abdu’l-Baha ('Tablets of
‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 3')
