Let not the deeds of those who reject the Truth shut you out
as by a veil. Such people have warrant over your bodies only, and God hath not
reposed in them power over your spirits, your souls and your hearts. Fear ye
God that haply it may be well with you. All things have been created for your
sakes, and for the sake of naught else hath your creation been ordained. Fear
ye God and take heed lest forms and apparels debar you from recognizing Him.
Render ye thanksgiving unto God that perchance He may deal mercifully with you. -The Báb ('Selections from the Writings of the Báb')
