Praise be to Thee, O my Lord, for having enabled me to
recognize the Manifestation of Thine own Self, and aided me to fix mine heart
on the court of Thy presence, the object of my soul’s adoration. I beseech
Thee, by Thy name that caused the heavens to be rent and the earth to be cleft
asunder, to ordain for me what Thou didst ordain for them that have turned away
from all else but Thee, and rested their hearts firmly upon Thee. Grant that I
may be seated in Thy presence on the seat of truth, within the Tabernacle of
Glory. Powerful art Thou to do what Thou willest. There is none other God but
Thee, the All-Glorious, the All-Wise.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the
Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
