A Tempered Sword The Hidden Words

If you liked the quote from the video, it is provided below: From the Persian Hidden Words, #72 O MY SERVANT! Thou art even as a finely tempered sword concealed in the darkness of its sheath and its value hidden from the artificer's knowledge. Wherefore come forth from the sheath of self and desire that thy worth may be made resplendent and manifest unto all the world. -Bahá'u'lláh, The Hidden Words.

[corrientes1995]

Look at the world and ponder a while upon it. It unveileth the book of its own self before thine eyes and revealeth that which the Pen of thy Lord, the Fashioner, the All-Informed, hath inscribed therein. It will acquaint thee with that which is within it and upon it and will give thee such clear explanations as to make thee independent of every eloquent expounder. (Baha'u'llah, Tablets of Baha'u'llah, p. 141)
