O Monk of the Divine Unity! Ring out the bell, for the Day
of the Lord is come and the Beauty of the All-Glorious hath ascended His
blessed and resplendent throne. Praise be to Thee, O Thou Who art “He”, O Thou
besides Whom there is none but “He”! [1]
O Húd, Prophet of the Divine Decree! Sound the clarion in
the name of God, the All-Glorious, the Most Bountiful, for the Temple of
holiness hath been established upon the seat of supernal glory. Praise be to
Thee, O Thou Who art “He”, O Thou besides Whom there is none but “He”!
O Countenance of immortality! Pluck with the fingers of the
spirit the sacred and wondrous strings, for the Beauty of the Divine Essence hath
appeared, arrayed in a silken vesture of light. Praise be to Thee, O Thou Who
art “He”, O Thou besides Whom there is none but “He”!
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Days of
Remembrance’)
[1] In the Tafsír-i-Hú Bahá’u’lláh explains that the name “He” (or Huva, consisting of the letters Há’ and Váv) is God’s Most Great Name, for it is a mirror in which all of God’s names and attributes are reflected together.
