O company of the Concourse on high, and O denizens of the
immortal city! Hasten ye to pay homage, for the Shrine of grandeur hath
appeared within this Tabernacle round which all former shrines revolve; and
circle about and draw nigh unto the Lord of all men in these days, the like of
which the eyes of the former generations have never beheld. All hail then to
this, the Festival of the Lord, that hath dawned above the horizon of God, the
Most Gracious, the All-Bountiful!
- Baha’u’llah (‘Days of Remembrance’)
