Your excitement is contagious

Are there improved translations in this volume, or even previously unpublished texts?

Most are new Translations. As such we have never read them before

So from a Baha'i perspective, Abdu'lbaha was a gift from Baha'u'llah, he was known as the Master. Baha’u’llah called him amongst other names "The Mystery of God". Abdul'baha chose His own name and it means Servant of Baha, or Servant of Glory, His life was that of service to all humanity.

So that is the excitement, all one can find in advice from Abdul'baha, is how to love and serve each other. We read them to inspire us to peace and love and a life of service.
