Say: From My laws the sweet smelling savor of My garment can
be smelled, and by their aid the standards of victory will be planted upon the
highest peaks. The Tongue of My power hath, from the heaven of My omnipotent
glory, addressed to My creation these words: “Observe My commandments, for the
love of My beauty.” Happy is the lover that hath inhaled the divine fragrance
of his Best-Beloved from these words, laden with the perfume of a grace which
no tongue can describe. By My life! He who hath drunk the choice wine of
fairness from the hands of My bountiful favor, will circle around My
commandments that shine above the Day Spring of My creation. - Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
