Say: Should the quintessence of assurance be dismayed before
the clamour of the peoples of the world? Nay, by His beauty, which sheddeth its
radiance upon all that hath been and all that shall be! This, verily, is the
majesty of the Lord that hath encompassed the entire creation, and this is His
transcendent power that hath pervaded all them that see and all that is seen.
Take fast hold of the cord of His sovereign might and make mention of your
Lord, the Unconstrained, at this dawntide whose light hath laid bare every
hidden secret. Thus hath the Tongue of the Ancient of Days spoken on this Day
wherein the choice wine hath been unsealed. Take heed lest the vain imaginings
of them that have disbelieved in God perturb you, or their idle fancies deter
you from this outstretched path. - Baha’u’llah (‘Days of Remembrance’)
