Praised be Thou, O my God! I beseech Thee by them who have
circled round the throne of Thy will, and soared in the atmosphere of Thy
good-pleasure, and turned with all their affections towards the Horizon of Thy
Revelation and the Day-Spring of Thine inspiration, and the Dawning-Place of
Thy names, to aid Thy servants to observe what Thou hast commanded them in Thy
days—commandments through which the sacredness of Thy Cause will be
demonstrated unto Thy servants and the affairs of Thy creatures and of Thy
realm will be set aright.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
