By the righteousness of God! Whoso desireth to fathom the mystery of this "Mi’ráj," and craveth a drop from this ocean, if the mirror of his heart be already obscured by the dust of these learnings, he must needs cleanse and purify it ere the light of this mystery can be reflected therein.
- Baha'u'llah, The Kitáb-i-Íqán, p. 186
The will of the Eternal King hath ever been to purify the hearts of [His] servants from the promptings of the world and what is therein, so that they may be prepared for illumination by the effulgences of the Lord of the Names and Attributes.
- Abdu’l-Bahá, A Traveller's Narrative, p. 63
