O Shaykh! The
breezes of Revelation can never be confounded with other breezes. Now the
Lote-Tree beyond which there is no passing standeth laden with countless fruits
before thy face; besmirch not thyself with idle fancies, as have done the
people aforetime… Well nigh a hundred volumes of luminous verses and
perspicuous words have already been sent down from the heaven of the will of
Him Who is the Revealer of signs, and are available unto all. It is for thee to
direct thyself towards the Ultimate Goal, and the Supreme End, and the Most
Sublime Pinnacle, that thou mayest hear and behold what hath been revealed by
God, the Lord of the worlds.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son of the Wolf’)
