It is because of this difference in their station [1] and
mission that the words and utterances flowing from these Well Springs of Divine
knowledge appear to diverge and differ. Otherwise, in the eyes of them that are
initiated into the mysteries of Divine wisdom, all their utterances are, in
reality, but the expressions of one Truth.
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Gleanings from the
Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
[1] “…the station of distinction…(that) pertaineth to the
world of creation, and to the limitations thereof. In this respect, each
Manifestation of God hath a distinct individuality, a definitely prescribed
mission, a predestined revelation, and specially designated limitations.” (Baha'u'llah, ibid)
