God grant that, with a penetrating vision, thou mayest
perceive, in all things, the sign of the revelation of Him Who is the Ancient
King, and recognize how exalted and sanctified from the whole creation is that
most holy and sacred Being. This, in truth, is the very root and essence of
belief in the unity and singleness of God. “God was alone; there was none else
besides Him.” He, now, is what He hath ever been.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from
the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
