O people of God! Great is the Day and
mighty the Call! In one of Our Tablets We have revealed these exalted words:
‘Were the world of the spirit to be wholly converted into the sense of hearing,
it could then claim to be worthy to hearken unto the Voice that calleth from
the Supreme Horizon; for otherwise, these ears that are defiled with lying
tales have never been, nor are they now, fit to hear it.’ Well is it with them
that hearken; and woe betide the wayward.
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed
after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
