If Thou smellest from any one the smell of the love of Thy
Lord, offer up Thyself for him, for We have created Thee to this end, and have
covenanted with Thee, from time immemorial, and in the presence of the
congregation of Our well-favored ones, for this very purpose. Be not impatient
if the blind in heart hurl down the shafts of their idle fancies upon Thee.
Leave them to themselves, for they follow the promptings of the evil ones. - Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
