I was asleep upon My couch, when lo, the breezes of My Lord,
the All-Merciful, passed over Me, awoke Me from My slumber, and bade Me lift up
My voice betwixt earth and heaven. This thing is not from Me, but from
God. Unto this testify the dwellers of
His Dominion and of His Kingdom, and the inhabitants of the cities of His
unfading glory.
- Baha'u'llah (Tablet to Nasiri’d-Din Shah, Suriy-i-Haykal
[Tablet of Temple]; ‘The Summons of the Lord of Hosts’)
