Behold, how many are the mysteries that lie as yet
unravelled within the tabernacle of the knowledge of God, and how numerous the
gems of His wisdom that are still concealed in His inviolable treasuries!
Shouldest thou ponder this in thine heart, thou wouldst realize that His
handiwork knoweth neither beginning nor end. The domain of His decree is too
vast for the tongue of mortals to describe, or for the bird of the human mind
to traverse; and the dispensations of His providence are too mysterious for the
mind of man to comprehend. His creation no end hath overtaken, and it hath ever
existed from the “Beginning that hath no beginning”; and the Manifestations of
His Beauty no beginning hath beheld, and they will continue to the “End that
knoweth no end.” Ponder this utterance in thine heart…
- Baha’u’llah (‘The
Kitab-i-Iqan’)
