Supplicate to God, pray to Him and invoke Him at midnight
and at dawn. Be humble and submissive to God and chant the verses of
thanksgiving at morn and eve, for that He guided thee unto the Manifest Light
and showed to thee the straight Path and destined to thee the station of
nearness in His wonderful Kingdom. Verily I ask God to augment for thee, every
day, the light of guidance and His gift of virtue, comfort and ease. Thus thou
mayest set a good example in that region; that He may lift up the veil from before
the eyes of thy mother and father, so that they may witness the lights of the
Kingdom of God, which have encompassed all regions.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of
‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 2)
