"O SON OF SPIRIT! 
I created thee rich, why dost thou bring thyself down to poverty? Noble I made thee, wherewith dost thou abase thyself? Out of the essence of knowledge I gave thee being, why seekest thou enlightenment from anyone beside Me? Out of the clay of love I molded thee, how dost thou busy thyself with another? Turn thy sight unto thyself, that thou mayest find Me standing within thee, mighty, powerful and self-subsisting."

~Bahá'u'lláh

" ... Rise then unto that for which thou wast created."

"O SON OF SPIRIT! 
Noble have I created thee, yet thou hast abased thyself. Rise then unto that for which thou wast created."

"O SON OF UTTERANCE! 
Turn thy face unto Mine and renounce all save Me; for My sovereignty endureth and My dominion perisheth not. If thou seekest another than Me, yea, if thou searchest the universe forevermore, thy quest will be in vain."

~Bahá'u'lláh
