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 Ma_sh_riqu'l-A_dh_kars, 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.
