Know verily that whenever this Youth turneth His eyes toward
His own self, He findeth it the most insignificant of all creation. When He
contemplates, however, the bright effulgences He hath been empowered to
manifest, lo, that self is transfigured before Him into a sovereign Potency
permeating the essence of all things visible and invisible.
- Baha’u’llah, (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
