Tear asunder, O my God, the veil of vain imaginings that
hath obscured the vision of Thy people, that all may haste towards Thee, may
tread the path of Thy pleasure, and walk in the ways of Thy Faith. We are, O my
God, Thy servants and Thy bondsmen. Thou art sufficient unto us so that we can
dispense with the world and all that is therein. We are wholly satisfied with
all that hath befallen us in Thy path, and exclaim: “Praised be Thou, in Whose
hand are the realms of revelation and of creation, and all the kingdoms of
earth and heaven!”
- Baha’u’llah (‘Prayers and Meditations by Baha’u’llah’)
