The Worlds of God by -U.S.Baha'i National Ref Library Committee- 2 Para

"Self- love is a strange trait and the means of destruction of many important souls in the world. If man be imbued with all good qualities but be selfish, all the other virtues will fade or pass away and eventually he will grow worse." (Dal 119) (54:2)

"Wherefore must the veils of the satanic (human) self be burned away at the fire of love, that the spirit may be purified and cleansed and thus may know the station of the Lord of the Worlds." "If it fail... in its allegiance to its Creator, it will become a victim to self and passion." (7 Val 11; Bwf 121) (54:3)
