How vast is the Revelation of Bahá’u’lláh! How great the
magnitude of His blessings showered upon humanity in this day! And yet, how
poor, how inadequate our conception of their significance and glory! This
generation stands too close to so colossal a Revelation to appreciate, in their
full measure, the infinite possibilities of His Faith, the unprecedented
character of His Cause, and the mysterious dispensations of His Providence.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 21 March 1930, published in ‘The World
Order of Bahá’u’lláh’)
