A and to bestow upon thee a great limitless
delicacy and freshness.
"O thou who art quickened by the Divine Fragrances!..."
O thou who art quickened by the Divine Fragrances!
I considered thy letter. Its expression was wonderful and indicated the
brilliancy of thy heart and conscience. Be hopeful of the mercy of the
Lord of Creation, whose grace is infinite and the sea of whose gift is
boundless. I beg of the abundant favor of that Ancient Lord that thou
mayest decorate thy spiritual reality (being) with the human perfections,
be endowed with a new life, keep steadfast in the Covenant, diffuse the
fragrances (i.e., teach the Truth) and deliver the Cause of God.
"O thou who art acknowledging the Oneness of God!..."
O thou who art acknowledging the Oneness of God!
Verily, I read thy letter which contained beautiful meanings and wonderful
texts; was informed of thy turning unto God and thy attainment unto the
bounty of the Kingdom, which is apparent and manifest by the appearance of
God.
O maid-servant of God! Let not thy hands tremble nor thy heart be
disturbed, but rather be confident and firm in the love of thy Lord, the
Merciful, the Clement.
O maid-servant of God! Verily, all existence is [a book of] pages and
tablets which utter the glad-tidings of the appearance of the Kingdom of
thy Lord, the Supreme, the Great.
Observe the pages of the universe and discover the traces which appeared!
Hast thou seen or heard in any of the previous centuries or generations
that which is manifested in this Glorious Age? If the writings of the
previous centuries, the middle centuries and the later centuries, be
compared with that which is manifested in this single century, they will
not weigh against it! nay, rather, they are as drops of water in
comparison with the ocean. Magnified is He, who hath crowned this century
with the appearance of His Kingdom!
As to thee, turn unto God with a heart cheerfully swayed by His love and
kindled by the fire of His desires, both day and night. The lights of God
will appear unto thee, the mysteries of God be unfolded to thee and thy
bosom healed by the exhortations uttered by the Supreme Pen.
Convey my greeting and praise to thy respected husband and say to him that
the Jews are still expecting Christ and long to see Him in all
anticipation and great zeal, while His light was manifested, His beauty
shone forth, His call was raised, His trumpet blown, His stand
