setting the heart upon obtaining healing through the power of the Greatest
Name and by the spirit of the love of God.
Verily, I beg of God to ordain perfect rest and composure for thy revered
daughter.
As to your moving to another city: Meditate thou, perform the ablution and
pray to God before sleeping; and whatever the Merciful One may inspire
unto thee at the time of revelation in a dream, that will be consistent
with obtaining thy wishes. But the greatest motive for the happiness (or
felicity) of that family, both in this world and the next one, is that thy
revered husband and thy dear son-in-law should become believers in the
lights of the Kingdom which have surrounded all regions at this age of
effulgence.
"O thou who art yearning for the Glad-tidings of God!..."
O thou who art yearning for the Glad-tidings of God!
Verily, I was informed of the contents of thy letter which showed that
thine insight is opened, thy heart is purified, that thou art baptized by
the divine water and by the lordly fire and spirit and that thou art born
again from the womb of this mortal world. This is through the grace of thy
Lord, the Clement, the Merciful!
As to the imprisonment of Abdul-Baha: This is his utmost wish, his extreme
joy and this is what refreshes his burning; and I do not long for
deliverance from the depths of this agreeable prison. Verily, this Most
Great Prison is conducive unto the [shining of the] Orb of the
Horizons.(284)
Verily, I beg of God to bless unto thee thy marriage with thy revered
husband, to protect thee under all conditions from the violence of tests
and trials and to make thy feet firm in the Religion of God in this
wonderful (or new) age.
"O thou who art attracted to the Kingdom!..."
O thou who art attracted to the Kingdom!
Mrs. ......... became the cause of thy life and suffered thee to inhale of
the rose-garden of the Holy Spirit. Be thou thankful to her and sacrifice
thyself for her, for she became the means of thy guidance and thou hast
become the object of favor and a center of the bounty of God. She was thy
guide to the Kingdom and the cause of eternal life. Supplicate thou also
from God that thou mayest walk in her footsteps and become engaged in the
training and guidance of souls.
Caress on my behalf the beloved maid-servant of God, Miss ........., thy
daughter, and convey to her my respectful greetings.
"O thou dear maid-servant of God!..."
