This is the Day in which the Ocean of knowledge hath lifted
up its Voice and hath brought forth its pearls. Would that ye knew it! The
heaven of the Bayán hath been raised up in truth at the behest of God, the Help
in Peril, the Self-Subsisting. I swear by God! The Essence of knowledge
exclaimeth and saith: Lo! He Who is the Object of all knowledge is come and
through His advent the sacred Books of God, the Gracious, the Loving, have been
embellished. Every revelation of grace, every evidence of goodly gifts
emanateth from Him and unto Him doth it return.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of
Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
