He it is Who is established upon this luminous Throne.
Proclaim unto the celestial Concourse, O Pen of effulgent
glory, that lo, the veil of concealment hath been rent asunder and the Beauty
of the Lord hath been revealed from this Scene of transcendent glory with such
radiance as to cause the luminaries of His command to shine above the dayspring
of His almighty Name. All hail then to this, the Festival of the Lord, that
hath dawned above a horizon of surpassing grace!
This is a festival wherein all things have been adorned with
the vesture of the names of God, and wherein His bounty hath compassed all
things from first to last. All hail then to this, the Festival of the Lord,
that hath shone above a dayspring of resplendent holiness!
- Baha’u’llah (‘Days
of Remembrance’)
