THE STRAIGHT PATH |
Thank God for guiding thee unto the Straight Path, manifesting
unto thee the Evident Light. He shall give thee a draught of the
cup whereby thy spiritual power will be increased. Thou shalt
advance unto the Lofty Station, acquire heavenly qualities and
attain knowledge of the significances of the words of God in this
glorious day.
|
It is incumbent upon thee to turn wholly unto the Kingdom
of God, to enter entirely into this wonderful Cause, and to make
thy thought, remembrance and effort confined to the education
of thy character, the enlightenment through the light of Abhá,
and to guide the people to the source of the mercy of thy Lord,
the Clement, the Merciful.
|
It is incumbent upon thee to assemble continuously with the
beloved of God and to meet with those whose faces are illumined
with the light of the love of God. Verily, I supplicate to God to
make thee sincere in this love, to illumine thee with the light of
His Kingdom, and to destine unto thee the illumination by the
light of His attributes, to make thee a sign of mercy, a bird
warbling the verses of unity; that thou mayest be nurtured in
362
the bosom of His providence, and become a growing tree bearing
fruit in the Paradise of El-Abha.
