There is no paradise more wondrous for any soul than to be
exposed to God’s Manifestation in His Day, to hear His verses and believe in
them, to attain His presence, which is naught but the presence of God, to sail
upon the sea of the heavenly kingdom of His good-pleasure, and to partake of
the choice fruits of the paradise of His divine Oneness.
(The Báb, excerpt from
the Persian Bayan, ‘Selections from the Writings of the Báb)
