Ghost, to call on the name of God.
O my beloved one! It is incumbent upon thee to be firm in the Covenant and
to stand up and serve the religion of God. Verily, this is the magnet of
confirmation and assistance, the attracter of all success and the leader
of hosts of gifts.
May God protect thee from all accidents! May the Glory of ABHA be upon
thee!
Convey my greetings to the spiritual leaf, the servant of God, thy honored
wife, the esteemed ........, and say unto her: "Serve in the olive garden
of God, that God may help thee by those confirmations by which intellects
are astounded and the perceptions are cleared."
"O thou who art sincere in the Religion of God!..."
O thou who art sincere in the Religion of God!
Verily, the maid-servant of God, the assured leaf [thy wife] hath
presented herself in the Sacred Spot and is blessed by the pure and holy
dust, inhaled the fragrances of God from the meadow of Abdul-Baha. She
will soon return unto thee, while being watched over by the glance of the
providence of God.
I beseech God to cause thee to partake of the heavenly table, to be firm
in the love of God and to transmit His lights in those regions; to make
thee severed from all else save Him and to be a servant of His Cause, and
to strengthen thee with a power which may penetrate into the reality of
things.
"O thou who art attracted by the Speech of Abdul-Baha!..."
O thou who art attracted by the Speech of Abdul-Baha!
Verily I speak unto thee through the tongue of my spirit, from the
spiritual direction, and explain for thee the mysteries of the kingdom and
the meanings of the sacred, heavenly books. Direct thyself unto the Lord
of the Supreme World and loosen thy tongue, so that He shall confirm thee
by the spirit of Beyan (i.e., explanation) and breathe into thy mouth the
Holy Spirit and move thy tongue with the best meanings and mysteries.
Trust in God and rely on His great bounty, because His bounty is
overflowing like the seas, brilliant like unto the lights, flowing like
currents of water and raining like the clouds. It is incumbent upon thee
to be humble, lowly and submissive at the appearance of the lights of the
gifts of thy Lord, in every instant. Serve the friends of God under all
circumstances and conditions. This is the station of the spiritual ones;
this is the honor of the Bahais; this is the glory of the sincere ones and
this is the sovereignty of the unitarians.
