O thou who art advancing toward God!... Verily, thy Lord
hath chosen thee for His love, elected thee for His knowledge and selected thee
for entering the Paradise of Baha, so that thou mayest attain to the mightiest
bliss and greatest honor: It is no other than the Light which is shining upon
hearts and sights and the Spirit which is thrilling and flowing within veins
and nerves!
Verily, thou hast attained thereto, for thou hast
acknowledged the Oneness of God and His Singleness, and turned unto His Face,
the lights of which are shining from the horizon of the unseen, upon all
regions!
