"Man is like unto the glass (in the lamp); but spiritual splendors are like unto the light within the glass. No matter how translucent the glass may be, as long as there is no light within, it remains dark. Likewise man, no matter how much he advances in material accomplishments, ... will remain like the glass without light if he is deprived of the virtues spiritual." Promulgation of Universal Peace Page 297 . (85:3)
