an established truth of the Bahais. Nay even the Holy Manifestations of
God extend a great Bounty and an evident Light after their ascent from
this world. For His Holiness Christ there was more and greater promotion
of the Word, manifestation of divine power, conversion of holy souls, and
the giving of eternal life, after [His] martyrdom. Likewise for the
Blessed Beauty (Baha'o'llah) there was greater bounty and dawning of
light, manifestation of divine power, and effectiveness of the Word after
His Ascent; and ere long the Sun of His Reality will encircle the world
with its motion, heat, radiation and bounty.

Be not sorry on account of the limited extent of the progress of the Bahai
Cause in that country(246) . This is the beginning of the dawn. Consider

of this Cause, and Its Lights are shed upon all horizons.

Regarding the Society for healing of which thou art of a member; when it

Beauty; it will soon be done in all languages with the utmost of eloquence
and excellence. When the Tablets of His Holiness (Baha'o'llah) are

Endeavor thou with all thy power to make the translation as the original.

The Blessed Beauty went to Haifa many times, and thou hast seen Him.(247)
I hope thou mayest attain the real meeting and that is the witnessing with
the eye of insight and not of sight.

The essence of the teachings of His Holiness Baha'o'llah is Universal
Love, which comprehendeth all the virtues of the world of humanity, is the
cause of eternal life and of the progress of all the individuals of the
human race. Soon thou wilt see that these heavenly teachings, like unto
the light of reality, will envelope and enlighten the world.
