"O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!..."
| |
1 |
O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!
| |
2 |
Verily, I read thine excellent letter and was informed
of thy turning unto God, thy drawing near unto the
lofty holy Threshold, thy drinking from the Fountain
of Life and that thine heart hath partaken of the lights
of heaven. Verily, I beg of God to ordain for thee in
the future to come to this Blessed and White Land, to
cause thee to hear the melodies of the Dove and to
grant that thou mayest present thyself before the hands
of Abdul-Baha.

3 |
Exert thyself, O maid-servant of God, that thou
mayest guide thy relatives and bring union and accord
among the beloved ones and harmony among the maid-servants
of God; and that thou mayest become of the
myrtles of the Paradise of Oneness and of the trees
of the Reality of Singleness.

Every flock of the sheep of God which is protected
under the shadow of the Divine Shepherd will not be
scattered, but when the sheep are dispersed from the
flock, they will necessarily be caught and torn by the
wolf.
| |
5 |
Therefore, it is incumbent upon you to flock together!
It is incumbent upon you to be united! It is
incumbent upon you to expose yourselves to the fragrances
of God at every time and moment!
| |
6 |
Verily, I am with you when you turn unto God and
are attracted to the fragrances of God, and I pray for
confirmation, union, harmony and love in your behalf.
| |
7 |
Deliver my greetings and praise to the maid-servants
of God there.
