یا قوم فارضوا بما رضی الله لکم و قضی علیکم فو الله لو كان الأمر بيدی ما أظهرت نفسی أبدا. ای صاحبان بغضا قسم بآفتاب فلک بقا که اگر امر بدست این عبد بود هرگز خود را معروف نمینمودم چه که اسم مذکورم ننگ دارد از ذکر این السن غیر طاهرهٴ کاذبه و در هر حین که ساکن شده و صمت اختیار نمودم روح القدس از یمینم ناطق شده و روح الأعظم قدّام وجهم و روح الأمین فوق رأسم و روح البهآء در صدرم ندا فرموده و حال اگر بسمع لطیف استماع شود از جمیع اعضا و احشا و عروق و اظفار ندآء الله را استماع نمائید حتّی از شعراتم میشنوید بأنّه لا اله الّا هو و إنّ هذا الجمال لبهائه لمن فی السّموات و الأرضین ...

Shoghi Effendi Translation

Be content, O people, with that which God hath desired for you and predestined unto you.… O my ill-wishers! The Daystar of eternal Guidance beareth me witness: Had it been in my power, I would have, under no circumstances, consented to distinguish myself amongst men, for the Name I bear utterly disdaineth to associate itself with this generation whose tongues are sullied and whose hearts are false. And whenever I chose to hold my peace and be still, lo, the voice of the Holy Ghost, standing on my right hand, aroused me, and the Supreme Spirit appeared before my face, and Gabriel overshadowed me, and the Spirit of Glory stirred within my bosom, bidding me arise and break my silence. If your hearing be purged and your ears be attentive, ye will assuredly perceive that every limb of my body, nay all the atoms of my being, proclaim and bear witness to this call: “God, besides Whom is none other God, and He, Whose beauty is now manifest, is the reflection of His glory unto all that are in heaven and on earth.”
