Thank God for choosing thee, saving thee and granting thee
of these great blessings and glorious attainments. Verily, thy Lord shall
confirm thee in that which shall surprise the minds, through the glowing of its
love and the manifestations of the signs of its favors. It is incumbent upon
thee to be pure and holy. It is incumbent upon thee to be severed from all else
save thy Lord. Confine thy attention and thoughts to the Cause of thy great
Lord and to diffusing His fragrances in that country.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets
of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1)
