O thou seeker after the
Kingdom! Every divine Manifestation is the very life of the world, and the
skilled physician of each ailing soul. The world of man is sick, and that
competent Physician knoweth the cure, arising as He doth with teachings,
counsels and admonishments that are the remedy for every pain, the healing balm
to every wound. It is certain that the wise physician can diagnose his
patient’s needs at any season, and apply the cure. Wherefore, relate thou the
Teachings of the Abhá Beauty to the urgent needs of this present day, and thou
wilt see that they provide an instant remedy for the ailing body of the world.
Indeed, they are the elixir that bringeth eternal health.
