…one must close his eyes wholly to these thoughts, long for
eternal life, the sublimity of the world of humanity, the celestial
developments, the Holy Spirit, the promotion of the Word of God, the guidance
of the inhabitants of the globe, the promulgation of universal peace and the
proclamation of the oneness of the world of humanity! This is the work!
- ‘Abdu'l-Baha (‘Tablets of the Divine Plan’)
