'Abdu'l-Bahá's ministry (1892–1921) · 1 min

In 1967 Jack McLean interviewed Laura Dreyfus-Barney in Paris. She shared three brief memories of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá; the third was a comment McLean called “the anticipation of liberation.” One day as He sat in His chair, looking out onto the Mediterranean, in the dining room of the house of ‘Abdu’lláh Páshá in ‘Akká, the same room where the talks recorded in Some Answered Questions were given, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá said: “Oh, won’t it be wonderful when at last we are liberated from the body and we’ll be able to fly throughout the universe.”
