u suffered in thy life
time. Do not thou be grieved because of the loss of thy sight. Praise be
unto God, that thy insight is keen. Do not thou lament over thy poverty,
for the Treasury of the Kingdom is thine. Do not thou worry that thou
couldst not study in the material schools, because thou hast received
lessons in the Verses of the Oneness (of God) in the Divine University.
Offer thou thanks to God that thou couldst finally attain to Truth. Then
be thou firm and steadfast so that the doors of the most Great Bestowals
may be opened unto thy face. The greatest of all questions is
steadfastness and firmness. Every tree which is firmly rooted grows.
(August 10, 1920. Translated by Azizullah Bahadur)
[Tablet of December 8, 1920]
O thou heavenly person! (Mr. Kenjiro Ono)
Praise be unto God, that having rent asunder the veils and having seen the
rays of the Sun of Reality, thou didst turn thine attention to the Center
of the Covenant.
Rest thou assured that thou wilt be confirmed to give sight to the blind
and hearing power to the deaf and even thou wilt give life to the dead!
(December 8, 1920. Translated by Azizullah Bahadur)
[Tablet of August 19, 1920]
O ye daughters of the Kingdom! (Six school girls; Otoe Murakami, Kimiko
Hagiwara, Kazu Fukusawa, Haruko Mori, Yuri Takao, and Yuri Mochizuki)
Your congratulation on the Feast has been received. Its perusal imparted
joy and happiness. Through the Bounties of the Supreme Lord do I hope that
these daughters of the Kingdom will, day by day, progress so that they
may, like unto a magnet, attract the Divine confirmations. I am always
supplicating for you that ye may attain to the Most Great Bestowal and act
and behave according to the Teachings of His Holiness Baha'u'llah.
(August 19, 1920. Translated by Azizullah Bahadur)
[Tablet of August 19, 1920]
O seekers for the Truth! (revealed to nine persons, eight of whom were
young men students)
Praise God that you have heard the celestial Call, seen the ray of the Sun
of Truth, followed the right Direction and reached the longed-for Home!
You have sent me your congratulations for the Feast: I was very much
gratified at your feelings and at the fact that such a tie exists now
between East and West, such friendship between different nations!
It is evident that, through your efforts, the inhabitants of those regions
are now inhaling the fragrances of Musk from the Garden of the Kingdom
