Kitab-i-Aqdas/Elder165

O assembly of the learned men, when the verses came down and clear proofs were manifested We saw you behind the veils. This is none other than a wonderful thing. You gloried in My Name but were careless about Myself when the Merciful came with reason and proof. We tore off the veils; take care that you do not hide people with another veil. Break in pieces the chains of allusions (al-awham) in the name of the Possessor of Mankind (al-anam) and be not of the deceivers. Whenever you approach God and enter into this Cause, do not act corruptly in it. Do not measure the Book of God by your vain passions. This is the counsel of God before and afterwards. God's martyrs and men of sincerity bear witness to that. We are all witnesses to Him.
