Know ye that a servant’s glory resideth in his nearness unto
God, and that, unless he draweth nigh unto Him, naught else can ever profit
him, even should he hold sway over the entire creation.
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by
Shoghi Effendi in ‘The Promised Day Is Come’; Suriy-i-Muluk [Tablet to the
Kings]; ‘Summons of the Lord of Hosts’)
