“O thou seeker after the Beauty of the True One!…”
O thou seeker after the Beauty of the True One!
What thou hast written was perused. It indicated thy yearning and advancement toward the Kingdom of God.
If thou standest steadfast and firm in this seeking and advancement, not becoming agitated by the trials, giving repose and composure to the mind, and freeing thyself from attachment to this ephemeral world, be thou assured that thou shalt become an enkindled lamp, spreading the lights of faith, assurance, knowledge and the love of God in every gathering-place.
We will five thee permission to stand before the Presence when it is a favorable and suitable time and not contrary to wisdom.
If thou seekest after the light of the Kingdom, hasten undoubtedly to the meetings of the believers, in order that the rays of truth may reflect in thy heart.
