Great is the blessedness of him who hath in this Day cast away
the things current amongst men and hath clung unto that which is ordained by
God, the Lord of Names and the Fashioner of all created things, He Who is come
from the heaven of eternity through the power of the Most Great Name, invested
with so invincible an authority that all the powers of the earth are unable to
withstand Him. Unto this beareth witness the Mother Book, calling from the Most
Sublime Station.
(Baha’u’llah, excerpt from Tajalliyat [Effulgences]; ‘Tablets
of Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
