I am the Primal Point from which have been generated all
created things. I am the Countenance of God Whose splendor can never be
obscured, the Light of God Whose radiance can never fade.... All the keys of
heaven God hath chosen to place on My right hand, and all the keys of hell on
My left.... I am one of the sustaining pillars of the Primal Word of God.
Whosoever hath recognized Me, hath known all that is true and right, and hath
attained all that is good and seemly.... The substance wherewith God hath
created Me is not the clay out of which others have been formed. He hath
conferred upon Me that which the worldly-wise can never comprehend, nor the
faithful discover.... - The Báb (From a Tablet to Muhammad Sháh, quoted by
Shoghi Effendi in’ The Promised Day Is Come’)
