In this Day a great
festival is taking place in the Realm above; for whatsoever was promised in the
sacred Scriptures hath been fulfilled. This is the Day of great rejoicing. It
behoveth everyone to hasten towards the court of His nearness with exceeding
joy, gladness, exultation and delight and to deliver himself from the fire of
remoteness.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
