The various sects who consider themselves servants
of the world of humanity are possessed of good
intention, but they are inert, not active; captive, not free;
silent, not eloquent; slow, not fast. They have sluggish
movement and great intention. These tow do not agree
(or unite).

Many a good intention was there in the world of existence
which left no trace, for it was not confirmed by
the effective power. But the good intentions of the beloved
of God and the merciful projects of the real
friends are enforced by the power of the Word of God;
therefore, it is effective and quick in action and the
means of life to the world of humanity. Thank thou
God that He hath provided such a means for thee that
by divine aid, heavenly confirmation, merciful intention
and heavenly power thou mayest arise to serve, so that
thou mayest see wonderful signs and marvelous results.

of the world of humanity. Therefore, this
merciful reality must first find realization among the
friends (Bahais), so that it may affect other souls.

Today the world and the people are under the shadow
of divine providence, the light of the Sun of Reality
hath been shed upon the world of minds and thoughts;
hence, light is seen everywhere.
