We, of a certainty, have had no purpose in this earthly
realm save to make God manifest and to reveal His sovereignty; sufficient unto
Me is God for a witness. We, of a certainty, have had no intent in the
celestial Kingdom but to exalt His Cause and glorify His praise; sufficient
unto Me is God for a protector. We, of a certainty, have had no desire in the
Dominion on high except to extol God and what hath been sent down by Him;
sufficient unto Me is God for a helper.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
