O my spiritual friend! Dost thou know from what airs emanate the notes
sung by those birds? They are from the melodies of peace and
reconciliation, of love and unity, of justice and security, of concord and
harmony. In a short time this heavenly singing will intoxicate all
humanity; the foundations of enmity shall be destroyed; unity and
affection shall be witnessed in every assembly; and the lovers of the love
of God at these great festivals shall behold their splendor.
Therefore, contemplate what a spirit of life God hath given that the the
body of the whole earth may attain life everlasting! The Paradise of
El-Abha will soon spread a pavilion from the pole-star of the world, under
whose shelter the beloved shall rejoice and the pure hearts shall repose
in peace.
“O ye two pilgrims of the Holy Shrine!...”
O ye two(134) pilgrims of the Holy Shrine!
The news of your protected and safe arrival in Paris, France, reached here
and made me glad and happy. The news expressed the love and devotion of
the beloved of Paris, who met you with the greatest joy and cheerfulness,
and who are themselves in love, peace and harmony.
You shall openly declare all the signs of the Kingdom that you say with
you own eyes and shall suggest with greatest joy and happiness all the
divine teachings that you heard. I ask and supplicate God to make you to
convinced souls, to bring you forth with such a steadfastness that each of
you may withstand the people of a country, and to intoxicate you with the
wine of the love of God so that you may cause your hearers to dance, to be
joyful and to exult.
This is the time of happiness; it is the day of cheerfulness and
exhilaration. For, praise to God, all the doors are opened through the
bounty of the Glorious Beauty. But one must show forth perseverance and
self-devotion and consecrate his thoughts, until the tree of hope may give
fruit and produce consequences.
“O ye two lamps of the Love of God!...”
O ye two(135) lamps of the Love of God!
Your letter to ........ was read and its contents considered. Its meanings
expressed the feelings of spiritual hearts and emanated from the spring of
the conscience. This is from the bounty of the Kingdom of Abha. I hope
that this drop will increase and grow and become like unto an ocean; that
your faith, certainty and love toward God may grow, that your light may
increase, that ye may become heavenly and that ye may receive aid and
confirmation at every moment, spreading the Word of God and promulgating
His religion.
“O thou respectful soul!...”
O thou respectful soul!
