Say: The beginning of Wisdom and the origin thereof is to
acknowledge whatsoever God hath clearly set forth, for through its potency the
foundation of statesmanship, which is a shield for the preservation of the body
of mankind, hath been firmly established. Ponder a while that ye may perceive
what My most exalted Pen hath proclaimed in this wondrous Tablet.
- Baha'u'llah (Tablets of
baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
