Forget the world of creation, O Pen, and turn thou towards
the face of thy Lord, the Lord of all names. Adorn, then, the world with the
ornament of the favours of thy Lord, the King of everlasting days. For We
perceive the fragrance of the Day whereon He Who is the Desire of all nations
hath shed upon the kingdoms of the unseen and of the seen the splendour of the
light of His most excellent names, and enveloped them with the radiance of the
luminaries of His most gracious favours — favours which none can reckon except
Him, Who is the omnipotent Protector of the entire creation.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Days of Remembrance’)
