Bahai World
Every week, an article is selected from the Library and highlighted here. From the 1950-1954 volume of The Bahá'í World, this essay by William Sears, is a meditation on the sacred city of Akká, where Bahá'u'lláh was exiled and imprisoned and lived the last decades of His life. "Today," writes Mr. Sears, "we were to visit all those precious places associated with Bahá’u’lláh and the Master in the prison city of ‘Akká. ... The sea, the wind, the swirling mist, none could cool down the ardor that stirred inside the pilgrim as he looked upon this gray shell of a house that once sheltered the Supreme Prophet of God."
