A dynamic process, divinely propelled, possessed of
undreamt-of potentialities, world-embracing in scope, world-transforming in its
ultimate consequences, had been set in motion on that memorable night when the
Báb communicated the purpose of His mission to Mullá Ḥusayn in an obscure corner of
Shíráz.
(Shoghi Effendi, ‘God Passes By’)
