O servants! Pleasant is the utterance
of the Friend: Where is the soul who will taste its sweetness, and where is the
ear that will hearken unto it? Well is it with him who, in this day, communeth
with the Friend and in His path renounceth and forsaketh all save Him, that he
may behold a new world and gain admittance to the everlasting paradise.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Tabernacle of Unity’)
