Thus it hath been made clear that these stages depend on the vision of the wayfarer. In every city he will behold a world, in every Valley reach a spring, in every meadow hear a song. But the falcon of the mystic heaven hath many a wondrous carol of the spirit in His breast, and the Persian bird keepeth in His soul many a sweet Arab melody; yet these are hidden, and hidden shall remain.
If I speak forth, many a mind will shatter,
And if I write, many a pen will break. 20 , 21
Peace be upon him who concludeth this exalted journey and followeth the True One by the lights of guidance." ...
-Bahá'u'lláh, The Seven Valleys And the Four Valleys, pp. 28-29
20. The Mathnaví.
21. This refers to Bahá’u’lláh Himself, Who had not yet declared His mission.
