(Moments with Baháʼuʼlláh - Memoirs of the Hand of the Cause of God Ṭarázuʼlláh Samandarí)
'Abdu'l-Bahá was present too; as I recall He was standing. He directed us to circumambulate the bed. Those of us in our group simply walked around Bahá'u'lláh's bed, and He said to us: "Fí amánu'lláh-go in God's care." We went out of the room. That was the very last time that I was present at the meeting with God.

“By the one true God, Elijah hath hastened unto My court and hath circumambulated in the day time and in the night season My throne of glory.” “Solomon in all his majesty circles in adoration around Me in this day, uttering this most exalted word: ‘I have turned my face towards Thy face, O Thou omnipotent Ruler of the world! I am wholly detached from all things pertaining unto me, and yearn for that which Thou dost possess.’”
(Selections from the writings of Shoghi Effendi about Bahá’u’lláh published in The Bahá’í World, Volume 14)
When the ship reached Haifa the very thought of prostrating ourselves at His threshold and attaining His presence which the Prophets and His chosen ones had wished to attain invoked such eagerness and excitement in our hearts that with tears streaming down our cheeks, we were transported into a different world. We arrived at a spot where the souls of all the Manifestations of God were circumambulating day and night around His Blessed Person.
(The Revelation of Baháʼuʼlláh by Adib Taherzadeh - 1988)
‘Andalib, overtaken by grief and with tears flowing, exclaimed, ‘O, Baha! O, Baha!’ He gave us permission to leave. Immersed in sorrow and with hearts consumed with grief, we prostrated ourselves at His feet, circumambulated Him, and left the room.
(Ṭarázu’lláh Samandarí, Lights of Fortitude)
