[Tablet Translated October 27, 1916] |
Thy letter through Mr. Hannen was received from Japan; likewise
the letters of Mr. Fukuta. The contents of both letters imparted
exceeding joy, for each word was an eloquent tongue explaining the
wonders of the Love of God and elucidating the story of the attraction
of the heart with the Breaths of the Holy Spirit.

God says in the glorious Qur’an: “A seed, growing out of it seven
ears, and God is able to double this for whomsoever He willeth.” This
verse means: Whenever the Word of Truth is proclaimed, it is like
unto a seed, which sown in a pure soil brings forth seven ears and
every ear produces one hundred kernels, and God says again that for
whomsoever He desireth, He will double this number, that is, He will
make the seven hundred kernels fourteen hundred.
