When in Bahá'í history
O thou who art baptized by the Spirit of the Love of God!
Be rejoiced with this great bounty and gladdened by this mighty gift!
Verily, thou art from the West and we are from the East, the distance between is great. Nevertheless, it is as if we were from one native land, one city, one house and one household. The love of God gathered us all under the shade of one tent, beneath one banner.
This is from the power of the command of God and His dominion, which encompasseth all contingent beings and affects the hearts of all existing things.
