Verily I say! No one hath apprehended the root of this
Cause. It is incumbent upon everyone, in this day, to perceive with the eye of
God, and to hearken with His ear. Whoso beholdeth Me with an eye besides Mine
own will never be able to know Me.
(Baha’u’llah, quoted by Shoghi Effendi in
‘The Advent of Divine Justice’)
