Source (Arabic)

مقصود از کتابهای آسمانی و آیات الهی آنکه مردمان بآدابی تربیت شوند که سبب راحت خود و سایر بندگان شود هر امری که قلب را راحت نماید و بر بزرگی انسان بیفزاید و ناس را راضی دارد مقبول خواهد بود مقام انسان بلند است اگر بانسانیّت مزیّن باشد والّا پست‌تر از جمیع مخلوق مشاهده میشود بگو ای دوستان امروز را غنیمت شمرید و خود را از فیوضات بحر معانی محروم ننمائید از حقّ میطلبیم جمیع را بطراز عمل پاک و خالص در این یوم مبارک مزیّن فرماید انّه لهو الحاکم المختار

Shoghi Effendi Translation

The purpose underlying the revelation of every heavenly Book, nay, of every divinely revealed verse, is to endue all men with righteousness and understanding, so that peace and tranquillity may be firmly established amongst them. Whatsoever instilleth assurance into the hearts of men, whatsoever exalteth their station or promoteth their contentment, is acceptable in the sight of God. How lofty is the station which man, if he but choose to fulfill his high destiny, can attain! To what depths of degradation he can sink, depths which the meanest of creatures have never reached! Seize, O friends, the chance which this Day offereth you, and deprive not yourselves of the liberal effusions of His grace. I beseech God that He may graciously enable every one of you to adorn himself, in this blessed Day, with the ornament of pure and holy deeds. He, verily, doeth whatsoever He willeth.
