O maid-servant of God! Know thou, the first bounty from the True One is
love, unity and harmony, and without these all the deeds pass in vain and
give no result. Love is the result of the Manifestation and the glorious
purpose of the rising of Light on the Mount, in the Sinai of the Forgiving
Lord.
It is incumbent upon you (to act) with merciful harmony and spiritual
unity, so that the bounties of your Lord may embrace you and make you as
waves in this sacred, moving sea. This is seemly of the believing women!
This is the spirit of the assured women! This is the light of the peaceful
women! This is the ultimate wish of the attracted women!
Verily, I beseech God to illumine thy sight by witnessing the light of
hopes and cause thee to speak His praise among the maid-servants, and to
make thee steadfast in this path, on which feet have slipped through the
power of tests.
And I beg of Him to enable thee to confirm thy parents and make thee a
servant in His great vineyard, and cause the consolation of thine eye, thy
noble child, to enter the garden of His exalted Kingdom.
"O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!..."
O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!
Verily, I read thine excellent letter and was informed of thy turning unto
God, thy drawing near unto the lofty holy Threshold, thy drinking from the
Fountain of Life and that thine heart hath partaken of the lights of
heaven. Verily, I beg of God to ordain for thee in the future to come to
this Blessed and White Land, to cause thee to hear the melodies of the
Dove and to grant that thou mayest present thyself before the hands of
Abdul-Baha.
Exert thyself, O maid-servant of God, that thou mayest guide thy relatives
and bring union and accord among the beloved ones and harmony among the
maid-servants of God; and that thou mayest become of the myrtles of the
Paradise of Oneness and of the trees of the Reality of Singleness.
Every flock of the sheep of God which is protected under the shadow of the
Divine Shepherd will not be scattered, but when the sheep are dispersed
from the flock, they will necessarily be caught and torn by the wolf.
Therefore, it is incumbent upon you to flock together! It is incumbent
upon you to be united! It is incumbent upon you to expose yourselves to
the fragrances of God at every time and moment!
Verily, I am with you when you turn unto God and are attracted to the
fragrances of Go
