O thou who art set aglow with the Fire burning in the
Tree of Sinai!
|
Verily, I read thy letter, which speaks of the throbbing
of thy heart by the thoughts of the love of God
and indicates the unity of the maid-servants of the
Merciful, their harmony in the word of God, and their
attraction by the fragrances of God, for they are the
waves of one sea, the leaves of one tree, and the flowers
of one garden. By these tidings the heart of
Abdul-Baha was made happy and he attained thereby
fragrance and spirituality.

For the Greatest Name and the Ancient Beauty
—may my soul be a sacrifice to His beloved—endured all
difficulty and ordeals for the purpose of uniting the
hearts of the beloved of God; that they might be exhilarated
248
through the wine of unity and proclaim with
one voice:
|
“Hasten to love, to love, O peoples of the world!
|
Hasten to harmony, to harmony, O creatures of the universe!
|
Hasten to peace, to peace, O mankind!
|
Hasten to safety, to safety, O concourse of the Divine!
|
Hasten to concord, to concord, O hosts of the Merciful!
|
Hasten to oneness, to oneness, O people of El-Baha, among the people!”
|
I ask God to aid you in spreading these fragrances,
and in reading these words in the supreme assemblages
and great meetings.
|
Convey my spiritual greeting to thy honored sister.
I ask God to confirm the weak and to make them
mighty in the kingdom of His Majesty. I pray God
to guide thy honorable husband to the Path of the Kingdom,
the sublime, and to aid thee in the service of His
Cause in His glorious vineyard.***
