wisdom, connection and relations. The world is
harmonious in all things and the connection therein is mighty and nothing
is missing. All things are eaters and eaten in the physical creation. The
plant sucks from the mineral, the animal eats and swallows the plant, and
the human eats the animal. Then the mineral (in turn) eats the human body.
Physical bodies are transferred from death to death and life to life.
Therefore, all things are subject to transfer and change except the Cause
of existence, which cannot be changed or transferred, because it is the
foundation for life in all kinds and species and in all possible realities
in the world of creation.

If thou observest closely through a microscope the water which man drinks
and the air which he breathes, thou wilt see that in every breath which
man breathes, that breath contains numerous animals, and in every draught
of water great number of animals exist. This could not be prevented
because the existent beings are eaters and eaten and, by this, existence
is caused; otherwise, the relations between existent things would cease.
When a thing decomposes and decays, being bereft of life, it becomes
promoted to a world of life greater than the former. For instance, it
ceased in a mineral life and was promoted to the vegetable life; then
leaves the vegetable life and is elevated to that of the animal; then
leaving the animal life it advances to the human, and this is on account
of the favor of thy Lord, the Merciful, the Clement.

I ask God to strengthen thee in comprehending the mysteries deposited in
the reality of existence, to lift up the veil before thee and thy sister,
so that the concealed mystery and the hidden reality become manifest as
the sun at noon, and to confirm thy sister and thy husband in entering the
Kingdom of God, and heal thee from all physical and spiritual disease in
the world of creation.

"O thou maid-servant of God!..."

O thou maid-servant of God!

Thy writing was considered. I ask God that thy mind(43) may be illumined
with the light of knowledge and faith to the extent that thy face will
radiate its glory, even as a light, when set aglow in the lamp, will cast
its rays to the surrounding regions.

I hope that the darkness of evil suggestions shall be dispersed and that
the veil of uncertainty shall be torn asunder; that the beauty of truth
may become manifest with glory and the light of mercy become radiant. Thus
mayest thou, O m
