O thou servant of God! Thy letter was received.
Its contents were lofty and sublime, and its aim high and
far-reaching. The world of humanity is in need of great
improvement, for it is a material jungle wherein trees without
fruit flourish and useless weeds abound. If at all there is
a tree that beareth fruit it is overshadowed by the fruitless
ones, and if a flower groweth in this jungle it is hidden and
concealed. The world of mankind is in need of expert
gardeners who may convert these forests into delectable
rose gardens, may substitute for these barren trees ones that
yield fruit, and may replace these useless weeds with roses
and fragrant herbs. Thus active souls and vigilant people
rest neither by day nor by night; they strive to be closely
linked to the divine Kingdom and thereby become the
manifestations of infinite bounty and ideal gardeners for
these forests. Thus the world of humanity will be wholly
transformed and the merciful bounties become manifest.
