supper. That heavenly food consisted of the love of God, the knowledge of
God, the mysteries of God and the bestowal of God.

"O thou seeker of Truth!..."

O thou seeker of Truth!

The Lord of Hosts became manifest to Moses and the children of Israel in a
pillar of fire, and appeared to Christ in the fire of the love of God.
This is that of which it is said in the Gospel: One must be baptized with
fire and spirit.

Now the lights of the divine bounties of the fire of the love of God have
shone forth in the word and letters. That is, the words and letters are
similar to a mirror, and the Sun of Truth and the Rays of Significances
have become manifest and shone forth in these mirrors of words and
letters.

Seek thou from God that thy heart may be as one of these letters, until
the Eternal Bounty may cast a ray of splendor therein.

Pay attention minutely and cogitate, until thou mayest apprehend the
meaning of this explanation and advance day by day, like unto thy dear
mother.

"O thou that mirror in which the Light of Guidance is printed!..."

O thou that mirror in which the Light of Guidance is printed!

I was informed of thy prayer, thy supplication and thy beseeching. Know
thou verily:

My throne is my mat!

My glorious crown in my servitude toward God!

My standard is the commemoration of my Lord!

My hosts are the knowledge of my Master!

My sword is the guidance of God!

My dominion is my humility, my submissiveness, my lowliness, my abasement,
my supplication and my beseeching unto God--this is that permanent reign
which no one is able to dispute, gainsay or usurp!

I beg God to cause thee to be one of the pillars of this divine reign,
that thou mayest abundantly partake of this joy and gladness, and I invoke
God that He may register thy name in the published Tablet, in the pages of
the Kingdom of God. I beg God to cause thy kinsmen (those who are near and
dear to thee) to attain that which thou hast attained, to drink from that
Cup wherefrom thou art exhilarated, to brighten their eyes through that
Light whereby thine eyes were brightened and to cause them to hearken to
that Call whereby thine ears were delighted; and that He may make you
assemble under the shadow of the Tree of the Testament, and cause you to
be of the hosts of His Kingdom, that ye may conquer the East of that
region as well as its West, through the sword of peace and the weapons of
love, union and agreement
