Baha'u'llah & the New Era 1970 by -J. Esslemont- 1 Para

It is necessary that each individual should see and realize for himself the Glory of God manifest in the human temple of Baha'u'llah, otherwise the Baha'i faith would be for him but a name without meaning. The call of the Prophets to mankind has always been that men should open their eyes, not shut them, use their reason, not suppress it. It is clear seeing and free thinking, not servile credulity, that will enable them to penetrate the clouds of prejudice, to shake off the fetters of blind imitation, and attain to the realization of the truth of a new Revelation. (51:2)
