Watch over yourselves, for the Evil One is lying in wait,
ready to entrap you. Gird yourselves against his wicked devices, and, led by
the light of the name of the All-Seeing God, make your escape from the darkness
that surroundeth you. Let your vision be world-embracing, rather than confined
to your own self. The Evil One is he that hindereth the rise and obstructeth
the spiritual progress of the children of men.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of
Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
