希望收获善良与和平，应该种良好、崇高思想的种籽。一切都首先于我们想到的思想开始然而生长。我们所说明与写到的、一切行为与行动都源于我们心的思维和想象。当然，数不尽的想法就不断地通过我们的思想，其中也很多消失；但是，我们占有思考力量的同时，还有能力与自由将把我们的思想转向正确的、崇高的方向；并具有潜在的才干与势力以通过崇高的原则纪律和管理我们的理想与行动。因此，“一战争的思想出来”，我们有潜在的能力“由一项更强的，即，和平的思想反对它。”被遵循崇高的价值观和原则，理解而接受这观点应该是明确，给与着我们明亮、恩典和前进的远见，“仇恨思想必须被更强大的想法，爱的思想，摧毁。战争的思想使一切和谐、福祉、安宁和满足被毁与破坏。爱的思想建设博爱并导致友谊与和平、稳定和幸福。”

To harvest goodness and peace, we need to sow a good thought. Everything starts and grows from our thoughts. The spoken, the written, the actions and deeds all originate in our minds and through thinking and imagination. Of course so many thoughts come and pass through our minds; but, as we possess the power of thinking, we also have the capacity and free will to turn our thoughts towards the right directions, owning potential abilities to discipline and govern our own visions and actions through lofty and noble principles. Therefore “When a thought of war comes”, we have the power and ability to “oppose it by a stronger thought of peace.” Guided by noble values and principles, it is easy and conducive to true dignity and progress to understand and accept that, “A thought of hatred must be destroyed by a more powerful thought of love. Thoughts of war bring destruction to all harmony, well-being, restfulness and content. Thoughts of love are constructive of brotherhood, peace, friendship, and happiness.”

“别想世界和平是一种无可能到达的理想。为于神圣上帝的仁爱绝没有任何不可能的事情。只你全心地希望跟世界上所多种的人民建立友谊而引起互相和平的情绪，您的思想—有确信的，心灵崇高的—无疑将传播。您的想法将成为作所有人的希望而增强着引起全人类的关心和心灵的兴趣。”

（阿博都.巴哈，《巴哈欧拉之新的时代》，163 页）

"Do not think the peace of the world an ideal impossible to attain. Nothing is impossible to the divine benevolence of God. If you desire with all your heart friendship with every race on earth, your thought, spiritual and positive will spread; it will become the desire of others, growing stronger until it reaches the minds of all men."

(`Abdu'l-Baha, "Baha'u'llah and the New Era", p. 163)
