Organize ye spiritual assemblies. Lay ye the foundation of
union and concord in this world. Destroy ye the fabric of strife and war from
the face of the earth. Construct ye the temple of harmony and agreement.
Enkindle ye the light of the realm of the oneness of humanity. Open ye your
eyes. Gaze and behold ye the Other World. The Kingdom of Peace, Salvation,
Uprightness and Reconciliation is founded in the Invisible World, and it will
by degrees become manifest and apparent through the power of the Word of God. I
supplicate God that ye may become the army of that Kingdom, in order that, by
the power of the Most Great Name, the friends of God may conquer the world
through love, friendship and the strength of the Kingdom of Peace, the human
race may become compassionate, and bloodshed and carnage be completely effaced
from the universe.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (Star of the West, vol. 5. No. 9, August 20,
