“All Art is a gift of the Holy Spirit. When this light shines through the mind of a musician, it manifests itself in beautiful harmonies. Again, shining through the mind of a poet, it is seen in fine poetry and poetic prose. When the Light of the Sun of Truth inspires the mind of a painter, he produces marvellous pictures. These gifts are fulfilling their highest purpose, when showing forth the praise of God.” MindArtLightBeautifulSpiritPurposeSunProduceInspirePoetFineHolyHighestMusicianArt IsPraiseHarmonyShiningPainterHoly SpiritProsePoeticFulfillingMarvellousShining Through Author:Abdu'l-Bahá
