Beseech ye the one true God to grant that ye may taste the
savor of such deeds as are performed in His path, and partake of the sweetness
of such humility and submissiveness as are shown for His sake. Forget your own
selves, and turn your eyes towards your neighbor. Bend your energies to
whatever may foster the education of men. Nothing is, or can ever be, hidden
from God. If ye follow in His way, His incalculable and imperishable blessings
will be showered upon you. This is the luminous Tablet, whose verses have
streamed from the moving Pen of Him Who is the Lord of all worlds. Ponder it in
your hearts, and be ye of them that observe its precepts.
- Baha'u'llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah’)
