Say: Nature in its essence is the
embodiment of My Name, the Maker, the Creator. Its manifestations are
diversified by varying causes, and in this diversity there are signs for men of
discernment. Nature is God's Will and is its expression in and through the
contingent world. It is a dispensation of Providence ordained by the Ordainer,
the All-Wise. Were anyone to affirm that it is the Will of God as manifested in
the world of being, no one should question this assertion. It is endowed with a
power whose reality men of learning fail to grasp. Indeed a man of insight can
perceive naught therein save the effulgent splendour of Our Name, the Creator.
Say: This is an existence which knoweth no decay, and Nature itself is lost in
bewilderment before its revelations, its compelling evidences and its effulgent
glory which have encompassed the universe. (Baha’u’llah, ‘Tablets of
Bahá'u'lláh Revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’; Compilation ‘Nature’, prepared
by the Research Department of the Universal House of Justice)
