O servant who hast fixed his gaze upon My face! Hearken unto
the Voice of thy Lord, the All-Glorious, calling aloud from the dayspring of
grandeur and majesty. Verily His Call will draw thee nigh unto the realm of
glory and will cause thee to extol His praise in such wise that every created
thing will be enraptured, and to magnify His glory in such manner as to
influence the entire creation. Truly thy Lord is the Protector, the Gracious, the
All-Informed.
Gather thou together the friends of God in that land and
acquaint them with My incomparable remembrance. We have revealed for them a
Tablet from which the fragrance of the All-Merciful hath been wafted upon the
realm of existence, that they may rejoice with exceeding gladness and remain
steadfast in this wondrous Cause.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah
revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
