“I beg of Thee, O my Best Beloved, to pardon me and those who earnestly seek to promote Thy Cause; Thou art indeed the One Who forgiveth the sins of all mankind. ”
The Bab
Selections from the writings of The Bab (p.4)
I beg of Thee, O my Best Beloved, to awaken me and others who so earnestly seek to promote the Thy Cause in name and form alone. Inspire us to turn our attention-seeking around and rest it upon Thee alone, to know and love only Thee alone; for Thou art indeed the only Cause Who can correct the mistaken identity of all knowing beings. Thou art the One and Only Cause Who bringeth Understanding to uncertainty & doubt, Who bringeth the Answer to questions, Who bringeth the Wisdom of Self-Knowledge to the ignorance of self belief, Who bringeth Happiness to unhappiness, Who bringeth Safety and Security to fear and doubt, Who bringeth Rest to restlessness, Who bringeth Peace to sorrow & suffering, Who bringeth Love & Compassion to shame & guilt, Who bringeth the Perfection of Beauty to perceived flaws & imperfections. Thou art indeed the One and Only Cause Who bringeth True Knowledge and Unity to belief and separation.
