Verily, the glad-tidings of God have encompassed ‘Abdu’l-Baha
from all directions. While his heart is beating with the love of God, he holds
a cup full of the knowledge of God in his right hand and wishes to give the
seekers to drink of this wine, so that they may, perchance, be exhilarated with
this cup, which is overflowing with the signs of God.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets
of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1)
