Would that the hearts of men could be cleansed from these
man-made limitations and obscure thoughts imposed upon them! haply they may be
illumined by the light of the Sun of true knowledge, and comprehend the
mysteries of divine wisdom. Consider now, were the parched and barren soil of
these hearts to remain unchanged, how could they ever become the Recipients of
the revelation of the mysteries of God, and the Revealers of the divine
Essence? Thus hath He said: “On the day when the earth shall be changed into
another earth.” [Qur’án 14:48] (Baha’u’llah, ‘The Kitab-i-Iqan’)
