- Baha’u’llah (‘The Tabernacle of Unity’)
[1] Mánikchí Limjí Hataria (1813–1890), also known as
Mánikchí (Manekji) Sáhib, born in India of Zoroastrian parents.
October 21
The distinguished Sáhib, [1] may God graciously aid him,
hath written that the Hindus and Zoroastrians do not permit or welcome outsiders
who wish to join their ranks. This runneth counter to the purpose underlying
the advent of the Messengers of God and to that which hath been revealed in
their Books. For those Who have appeared at God’s behest have been entrusted
with the guidance and education of all people. How could they debar a seeker
from the object of his quest, or forbid a wayfarer from the desire of his
heart? The fire-temples of the world stand as eloquent testimony to this truth.
In their time they summoned, with burning zeal, all the inhabitants of the
earth to Him Who is the Spirit of purity.
