O ye peoples of the earth! By the righteousness of God, the
True One, the testimony shown forth by His Remembrance is like unto a sun which
the hand of the merciful Lord hath raised high in the midmost heart of the
heaven, wherefrom it shineth in the plenitude of its meridian splendour...
With each and every Prophet Whom We have sent down in the
past, We have established a separate Covenant concerning the Remembrance of God
and His Day. Manifest, in the realm of glory and through the power of truth,
are the Remembrance of God and His Day before the eyes of the angels that
circle His mercy-seat. (The Báb, excerpts from the Qayyumu’l-Asma, ‘Selections
from the Writings of the Báb)
