The Devotional Attitude
In order that we may attain the spiritual condition in which conversation with God becomes possible, 'Abdu'l-Baha says: - (60:8)

We must strive to attain to that condition by being separated from all things and from the people of the world and by turning to God alone. It will take some effort on the part of man to attain to that condition, but he must work for it, strive for it. We can attain to it by thinking and caring less for material things and more for the spiritual. The further we go from the one, the nearer we are to the other. The choice is ours (60:9)
