Blessed is he whom His Call hath attracted to the summit of
glory, who hath drawn nigh to the ultimate Purpose, and who hath recognized
through the shrill voice of My Pen of Glory that which the Lord of this world
and of the next hath willed. Whoso faileth to quaff the choice wine which We
have unsealed through the potency of Our Name, the All-Compelling, shall be
unable to discern the splendours of the light of divine unity or to grasp the
essential purpose underlying the Scriptures of God, the Lord of heaven and earth,
the sovereign Ruler of this world and of the world to come. Such a man shall be
accounted among the faithless in the Book of God, the All-Knowing, the
All-Informed.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed after the
Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
