The Hidden Words of Bahá'u'lláh
Part I--From the Arabic
68
O CHILDREN OF MEN!
Know ye not why We created you all from the
same dust? That no one should exalt himself
over the other. Ponder at all times in your
hearts how ye were created. Since We have
created you all from one same substance it is
incumbent on you to be even as one soul,
to walk with the same feet, eat with the same
mouth and dwell in the same land, that from your
inmost being, by your deeds and actions, the signs
of oneness and the essence of detachment may be
made manifest. Such is My counsel to you, O concourse
of light! Heed ye this counsel that ye may
obtain the fruit of holiness from the tree of wondrous
glory.
