O Karím! God grant that, through the bounty of the Most Generous [Karím], thou art reposing beneath the shade of the Tree of the Lord of all worlds...It behoveth ye all so to adorn your inner and outer beings that, robed in trustworthiness… O my loved ones!

abstract | States that, while some are able to recognize the truth the moment they encounter it, most stand in need of a teacher; explains that some can be taught with words, others by deeds and actions, and still others by the example of a saintly character; emphasizes the importance of the latter; asserts that the purpose of His revelation is not to enforce outward ordinances but to enable people to manifest divine perfections and to achieve that which their minds can readily embrace; and condemns some of the fanciful theories about the Promised One held by certain Muslims. |
