…all the earth’s creatures require the bounty of the sun,
for their very existence is dependent upon solar light and heat. Should they be
deprived of the sun, they would be wiped out. This is the being with God, as
referred to in the Holy Books: man must be with his Lord. ('Abdu'l-Bahá, ‘Selections from the Writings
of 'Abdu'l-Bahá’)
