Regarding the birth of this servant, which also happened on
that day, [1] this a proof of the favors and bounties of God toward this
servant. However, this Blessed Day must be known as the Day of the Declaration
of His Highness the Supreme (Báb) and the beginning of the effulgence of the
Sun of Reality. You must on this account be engaged in rejoicing, happiness and
gladness. This is the truth! Beware! Beware! that you avoid that which is
mentioned; otherwise, it will cause the utmost grief to the heart of
Abdul-Baha.
