Source (Persian)
اموری در اين ظهور ظاهر که از برای مظاهر علم و فضل و مشارق انصاف و عدل جز تصديق مجالی نه * امروز بر شما لازم و واجب که بقوّت ملکوتی قيام نمائی و شبهات احزاب عالم را بقدرت علم محو فرمائی تا کلّ مقدّس شده قصد بحر اعظم نمايند و بما اراده اللّه تمسّک جويند *
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Such things have appeared in this Revelation that there is no recourse for either the exponents of science and knowledge or the manifestations of justice and equity other than to recognize them. It is incumbent upon thee, in this day, to arise with celestial power and dissipate, with the aid of knowledge, the doubts of the peoples of the world, so that all men may be sanctified, and direct their steps towards the Most Great Ocean and cleave fast unto that which God hath purposed.
