O thou who hast set thy face towards the splendours of My
Countenance! Vague fancies have encompassed the dwellers of the earth and
debarred them from turning towards the Horizon of Certitude, and its
brightness, and its manifestations and its lights. Vain imaginings have
withheld them from Him Who is the Self-Subsisting. They speak as prompted by
their own caprices, and understand not.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah
revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
