O servant of God! Know thou, verily, the fragrances of the Garden of the Covenant have perfumed all regions, the Standard of the Testament is waving upon the castles of glory, and there is no refuge for those who flee from this strongly fortified Fortress!

Do the people of surmise imagine that there is for them any other retreat than this blessed Region from which the Lights have shone forth, the mysteries have appeared and the signs are being diffused?

O servant of God! Arise to promote the Word of God, to promulgate the Covenant of God, and chant the Verses of God with such power whereby the elements of discord may tremble in those regions! 

- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (From a Tablet; Star of the West, vol. 4, no. 10, September 8, 1913)
