O Násir, O My servant! God, the Eternal Truth, beareth Me witness. The Celestial Youth hath,
in this Day, raised above the heads of men the glorious
Chalice of Immortality, and is standing expectant
upon His seat, wondering what eye will recognize His
glory, and what arm will, unhesitatingly, be stretched
forth to seize the Cup from His snow-white Hand
and drain it. Only a few have as yet quaffed from
this peerless, this soft-flowing grace of the Ancient
King. These occupy the loftiest mansions of Paradise,
and are firmly established upon the seats of authority.
By the righteousness of God! Neither the mirrors of
His glory, nor the revealers of His names, nor any
created thing, that hath been or will ever be, can ever
excel them, if ye be of them that comprehend this
truth. |

O Násir! The excellence of this Day is immensely
exalted above the comprehension of men, however
extensive their knowledge, however profound their
understanding. How much more must it transcend
the imaginations of them that have strayed from its
light, and been shut out from its glory! Shouldst
thou rend asunder the grievous veil that blindeth
thy vision, thou wouldst behold such a bounty as
naught, from the beginning that hath no beginning
till the end that hath no end, can either resemble or
equal. What language should He Who is the Mouthpiece
of God choose to speak, so that they who are
shut out as by a veil from Him can recognize His
glory? The righteous, inmates of the Kingdom on
high, shall drink deep from the Wine of Holiness, in
My name, the all-glorious. None other besides them
will share such benefits. |
