The maid-servant of God, Aseyeh, hath mentioned
thy name in her letter, praising and commending thee.
Likewise thy letter was received. I was exceedingly
happy on account of the love of the maid-servant of
God, Aseyeh, for thee. The advent of the prophets
and the revelation of the Holy Books is intended to
create love between souls and friendship between the
inhabitants of the earth. Real love is impossible unless
one turn his face towards God and be attracted to His
Beauty. The maid-servants of the Merciful should
love each other with heart and soul; for though there
be many bodies, the spirit of the faith is one and the outpouring
of the Holy Spirit is universal. There is one
Light but many lamps; there is one Wine but the glasses
differ. So thou shouldst love with all thy heart and
soul the maid-servants of the Merciful and associate
with them in utmost affection in order that thou mayest
realize divine happiness and behold the outpouring of
mercy.
