It befitteth the friends to hold a gathering, a
meeting, where they shall glorify God and fix their hearts
upon Him, and read and recite the Holy Writings of the
Blessed Beauty--may my soul be the ransom of His lovers!
The lights of the All-Glorious Realm, the rays of the
Supreme Horizon, will be cast upon such bright assemblages,
for these are none other than the Mashriqu'l-Adhkárs,
the Dawning-Points of God's Remembrance,
which must, at the direction of the Most Exalted Pen, be
established in every hamlet and city... These spiritual
gatherings must be held with the utmost purity and consecration,
so that from the site itself, and its earth and the
air about it, one will inhale the fragrant breathings of the
Holy Spirit.
