“DO men imagine that We are far distant from the people …” |

DO men imagine that We are far distant from the people
of the world? Nay, the day We cause them to be assailed
47
by the pangs of death
1
they shall, upon the plain of Resurrection,
behold how the Lord of Mercy and His Remembrance
were near. Thereupon they shall exclaim: ‘Would
that we had followed the path of the Báb! Would that we
had sought refuge only with Him, and not with men of
perversity and error! For verily the Remembrance of God
appeared before us,
2
behind us, and on all sides, yet we
were, in very truth, shut out as by a veil from Him.’
Chapter VII.
