Glad-tidings unto ye for this abundant blessing, sufficient bounties, wide mercy, glorious appearances; therefore, be
united in hearts and spirits, strive so that ye may obtain the great favors,
attain to the overflowing chalice, perform charity (good deeds), gain the
spirit of life, attracted by the fragrance and depend on the Lord of Signs. At
that time your faces will be illumined, your souls holy, your hearts severed
from this world and attached to the Supreme Concourse, and you will call out
with the most loud voice: “Glad-tidings unto us through these divine favors and
blessed are we by this heavenly guidance!”
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol.
