O brother, we should open our eyes, meditate upon His Word,
and seek the sheltering shadow of the Manifestations of God, that perchance we
may be warned by the unmistakable counsels of the Book, and give heed to the
admonitions recorded in the holy Tablets; that we may not cavil at the Revealer
of the verses, that we may resign ourselves wholly to His Cause, and embrace
wholeheartedly His law, that haply we may enter the court of His mercy, and
dwell upon the shore of His grace. He, verily, is merciful, and forgiving
towards His servants. - Baha’u’llah (‘Kitáb i-Íqán’; The Compilation of
Compilations, vol. I, The Importance of Deepening our Knowledge of the Faith)
