In brief, I hold within My grasp whatsoever any man might
wish of the good of this world and of the next. Were I to remove the veil, all
would recognize Me as their Best-Beloved, and no one would deny Me. Let not
this assertion astound Your Majesty; inasmuch as a true believer in the unity
of God who keepeth his eyes directed towards Him alone will regard aught else
but Him as utter nothingness.

Báb)
