Purpose of religion to bring joy to ourselves[edit]
"In serving a Cause for which your mother sacrificed so much you will no doubt come to find the very purpose of your life, and the true secret of happiness in this, as well as in the next world."
- (Shoghi Effendi, Arohanui: Letters to New Zealand, p. 42)
Being a source of joy to others brings unprecedented joy to ourselves[edit]
