agnet of the love of God. When the soul becomes sanctified in every
condition and becomes pure and holy, then the door of the divine knowledge
will be opened to the face.

Thou hast written about the dear maid-servant of God, Mrs. ........ That
one attracted unto God is indeed always occupied in the service and she
doth her utmost to spread the divine lights; if she continueth in the same
way there will be great results in the future. That which is of the
greatest importance is to have firmness, steadfastness and constancy.

I pray God that through the desires and the efforts of the maid-servants
of the Merciful the foot of the mountains by the ocean's shore(138) will
be enlightened by the brilliancy of the love of God in such a way that its
light may be transmitted all over the world.

You ask if, through the appearance of the Kingdom of God, every soul hath
been saved. The Sun of Reality hath appeared to the all the world. This
Luminous Appearance is salvation and life; but only he who hath opened the
eye of reality and who hath seen these lights will be saved.

You also ask about the eventual victory of spirituality in the Bahai age.
It is certain that spirituality will overcome materiality and that the
divine will have the victory over the human; it is also true that by
divine education souls in every condition of existence will be elevated,
except those that are blind, deaf, dumb and dead. How can such souls
comprehend the light? The sun lighteth up all the dark world, but the
blind man hath no portion in its brilliancy; the cloud of mercy poureth
forth streams of water, but the sterile land will never produce plants and
flowers.

Give my greetings to the maid-servant of God, Mrs. ........ and to her
daughter. I pray God to assist them to help them, that their meeting day
by day will grow brighter and that their hearts will be more and more
attracted.

If you see Mrs........., give her my greeting and say to her: "Thou hast
come to Acca, thou hast seen my teachings, thou hast heard my explanations
and thou hast smelled the sweet odors of the Kingdom. Do not forget this,
and try with thy heart and soul to diffuse this fragrance to thy respected
husband also."

Give my greeting to all the maid-servants of God.

"O thou attracted maid-servant of God!..."

O thou attracted maid-servant of God!

The celebration of the Feast of Naurooz(139) made me glad. Consider how
different this meeting was from tha
