Convey my deepest love and affection to Mr. Torii and Mr. Inouye and Mr.
Saiki, and also to all others. Through the graces of the Beauty of Abhá I
cherish the hope that those souls will become sublime emblems and fruitful
trees in this Supreme Paradise because a productive man is like unto a
tree which is fruitful and of large shadow and so he is the ornament of
the garden of Paradise.
This world, though apparently ornamented, yet its ornamentation is like
unto the freshness of the flowers on the meadow whose prosperity lasts but
for a short time, fading speedily through the heat of the sun and the
blowing of the wind. The Heavenly Trees, however, are always green, fresh,
full of blossoms and continually yielding fruits. They remain till
Eternity in perfect fineness, freshness and vigor.
Extend my great kindness and praise to the maid servant of God, Fuyo
(Yuri) Mochizuki, so that she may, with a divine power, a heavenly purpose
and Godly motive start her writing and that the Breaths of the Holy Spirit
may help her pen.
I am supplicating to God to help Mr. Fukuta progress day by day, to guide
the Japanese women to tear up the curtains of superstitions, observe
Lights of Truth, seek Eternal Life and long for everlasting Bestowals.

[Tablet Translated August 2, 1921]
O thou who wanderest in the divine Path!
In the path of God thou didst leave behind thy familiar country and
traveled to those distant regions, so that thou mayest spread the
Teachings of God and give the people the Glad Tidings of the Kingdom of
God. Be assured that confirmations will reach thee and thou wilt become
assisted in accomplishing a great service to the world of humanity.
Thousand tidings may reach thee!
Thy brother Ono San, also will be confirmed and with utmost joy and
happiness he will come back.
(Translated by Rouhi Afnan, Haifa, August 2, 1921)
[Tablet of November 7, 1921]
O thou who proclaimest the Kingdom of God!
Thy letter has been received and gave much joy. Praise be to God that the
confirmations of the Kingdom of Abhá reached and thou becamest the cause
of guidance of the souls. It is my hope that in Korea thou wilt raise the
banner of the Greatest Guidance. Convey my utmost kindness to Mr. Roh(6) .
I have utmost love for him and ask for him Heavenly blessings.
(November 7, 1921, Haifa. Received in Tokyo, February 14, 1922)
