"He indeed is a high priest who hath seen the light and hastened unto the way leading to the Beloved."

"THIS is not the day whereon the high priests can command and exercise their authority. In your Book it is stated that the high priests will, on that Day, lead men far astray, and will prevent them from drawing nigh unto Him. He indeed is a high priest who hath seen the light and hastened unto the way leading to the Beloved."

-Bahá'u'lláh, Proclamation of Bahá’u’lláh, p.106
