Bahá'u'lláh in this Tablet confers an exalted station
upon the soul of the believer. He states that if the
glory of such a station be revealed in this world, even
to the extent of a needle's eye, every soul will expire
through ecstasy. Because of this, the station of the
true believer is kept hidden in this life. In another
Tablet revealed in 'Akká, Bahá'u'lláh makes a similar
statement:

Blessed is the soul which, at the hour of its
separation from the body, is sanctified from
the vain imaginings of the peoples of the world.
Such a soul liveth and moveth in accordance
with the Will of its Creator... If any man be told
that which hath been ordained for such a soul
in the worlds of God, the Lord of the throne on
high and of earth below, his whole being will
instantly blaze out in his great longing to attain
that most exalted, that sanctified and
resplendent station...
