O ye peoples of the world! Know assuredly that My
commandments are the lamps of My loving providence among My servants, and the
keys of My mercy for My creatures. Thus hath it been sent down from the heaven
of the Will of your Lord, the Lord of Revelation. Were any man to taste the
sweetness of the words which the lips of the All-Merciful have willed to utter,
he would, though the treasures of the earth be in his possession, renounce them
one and all, that he might vindicate the truth of even one of His commandments,
shining above the day spring of His bountiful care and loving-kindness. - Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
