selected quotations
(authoritative sources)
These quotations reflect common presentations of Bahá’í views; the materials below may show a wider range of interpretations and contexts:

"Know thou that between Us and the creatures there standeth a ladder with three steps. The first is described as the world and its vanities, the second as the hereafter and all that is ordained therein, and the third as the Kingdom of Names. Whoso is enabled to traverse these stations shall attain the presence of the Lord of Names and Attributes in less than a moment. Take heed, O people of Bahá, lest ye tarry at these stations. Pass over them as swiftly as a passing cloud."

– Baha'u'llah, in Ma'idiy-i-Asmani 8:120-121; passage from the Suriy-i-Ism (Surah of the Name), Partial Inventory ID BH00994; provisional translation (source unknown)
