To what agency, if not to the irresistible diffusion of that
world-shaking, world-energizing, world-redeeming spirit, which the Báb has
affirmed is “vibrating in the innermost realities of all created things” can
the origins of this portentous crisis, incomprehensible to man, and admittedly
unprecedented in the annals of the human race, be attributed?
