Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh Revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas eBook
Bahá'u'lláh
Temporal ascendancy hath been and will continue to
be under the shadow of this station. Its appointed
hour is pre-ordained in the Book of God. He is
truly cognizant thereof and it will be manifested through
the potency of His might. Verily He is the Powerful,
the All-Subduing, the Omnipotent, the All-Knowing,
the All-Wise.
The sanctified souls should ponder and meditate in
their hearts regarding the methods of teaching.
From the texts of the wondrous, heavenly Scriptures
they should memorize phrases and passages bearing on
various instances, so that in the course of their
speech they may recite divine verses whenever the
occasion demandeth it, inasmuch as these holy verses
are the most potent elixir, the greatest and mightiest
talisman. So potent is their influence that the
hearer will have no cause for vacillation. I
swear by My life! This Revelation is endowed with
such a power that it will act as the lodestone for
all nations and kindreds of the earth. Should
one pause to meditate attentively he would recognize
that no place is there, nor can there be, for anyone
to flee to.
In such manner hath the Kitab-i-Aqdas been revealed
that it attracteth and embraceth all the divinely
appointed Dispensations. Blessed those who peruse
it. Blessed those who apprehend it. Blessed
those who meditate upon it. Blessed those who
ponder its meaning. So vast is its range that
it hath encompassed all men ere their recognition
of it. Ere long will its sovereign power, its
pervasive influence and the greatness of its might
be manifested on earth. Verily, thy God is the
All-Knowing, the All-Informed.
O My Name! Hearken thou unto My Voice coming
from the direction of My Throne. He wisheth to
make mention of thy name at all times inasmuch as
thou hast proved thyself steadfast in extolling His
virtues amongst men. Indeed thy Lord loveth fidelity
as found in the realm of creation, and He hath given
it precedence over most of the praiseworthy qualities.
Verily, He is Potent and Powerful.
Know thou moreover that We have heard the praise thou
hast uttered in thy communion with God, thy Lord,
the Exalted, the Gracious. Great indeed is the
blessedness awaiting thee, inasmuch as thou hast curtailed
thine own affairs in favour of this inviolable, this
mighty and enlightened Cause. We entreat God
to make thy call a magnet which will attract the embodiments
of names in the world of existence that all beings
may spontaneously hasten to heed it. No God is
there besides Him, the Exalted, the Pre-Eminent, the
Ever-Blessed, the Sublime, the Most August, the Most
Glorious, the Most Bountiful, the All-Knowing, the
All-Informed.
