Convey my greeting to ........ and say: “The Heavenly Table is descended;
become thou hungry in so far as thou canst and partake of that Food.”
Announce thou to ........: “At a time when the light of the Sun of Truth
hath penetrated into all those regions, then the spiritual oneness will
become realized. Therefore, make thou an effort that the souls may become
attracted with the light of the Kingdom and the shining heavenly lamp
become ignited in thy house. I beseech God that thou mayest become a
center of merciful feelings in those regions and seek after the
everlasting glory.”
I prayed for those whose names thou hast mentioned in thy letter, asking
from God confirmation and assistance in their behalf. Say to the beloved
maid-servant of God, ........, to write the book which she had in mind.
“O thou favored maid-servant of God!...”
O thou favored maid-servant of God!
Thy letter was received. Thou hast expressed joy on account of thy visit
to the friends of Chicago. I also yearn to visit them. At the time when ye
were assembled in the house of Mrs. ........, Abdul-Baha was also present
with heart and soul.
I hope that hou mayest become an incarnation of love and embodiment of
spirit and personficiation of kindness and that thou mayest progress day
by day in the spiritual attributes through the Beauty of ABHA.
Convey respectful greeting on my behalf to the dear and kind maid-servant
of God, the assured leaf, ....... Behold thou how attracted and enkindled
she is! Love and have great consideration for the attracted maid-servant
of God, ......... Exercise the utmost affection and kindness toward the
dear maid-servant of God, .........
O thou maid-servant of God! No one hath any way to the Reality of Deity
except through the Instrumentality of the Manifestation. To suppose so is
a theory and not a fact.
Convey greeting on my behalf to ........... and say: “If thou art desiring
the refulgent light, add to thy love for God. If thou art begging for the
breaths of the Holy Spirit, become thou engaged in the commemoration of
the Beauty of ABHA. If thou art seeking everlasting glory, choose humility
in the path of the True One. If thou art aspiring to eternal life,
sacrifice thy soul in the way of God.”
Announce my love and affection to the attracted maid-servant ......... and
say: “Every eye which is weeping for the sake of the love of God is
blessed; every ear which is hearing the divine call is blessed. Then may
thine eyes flow with the tears of joy because of the coruscation of the
fire of the heart and may thy soul and thy spirit be attracted to the
Beauty of the Beloved.”
Show forth kindness on my behalf to the maid-servants of the Merciful whom
thou hast mentioned by name in thy letter and impart to them the
glad-tidings of the Kingdom.
Give especial greeting to ........... and say: “There lie glorious
meanings in the word “Allaho-ABHA.(106) I hope thou wilt discover those
significances.”
