Every one of these gifts [“favors vouchsafed by Him unto
mankind”] is an undoubted evidence of the majesty, the power, the ascendancy,
the all-embracing knowledge of the one true God—exalted be His glory. Consider
the sense of touch. Witness how its power hath spread itself over the entire
human body. Whereas the faculties of sight and of hearing are each localized in
a particular center, the sense of touch embraceth the whole human frame. Glorified
be His power, magnified be His sovereignty!
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the
Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
