Epistle to the Son of the Wolf — Paragraph 153
Source (Persian)
يا شيخ از حقّ بطلب آذان و ابصار و افئده عالم را مقدّس فرمايد و از هوای نفس حفظ نمايد چه که غرض مرضيست بزرگ انسانرا از عرفان حضرت موجود محروم مينمايد و از تجلّيات انوار نيّر ايقان ممنوع ميسازد * از فضل و رحمت الهی سائل و امل که اين مانع اکبر را از ميان بردارد * انّه هو القویّ الغالب القدير *
Translation
O Shaykh! Entreat thou the one true God to sanctify the ears, and the eyes, and the hearts of mankind, and to protect them from the desires of a corrupt inclination. For malice is a grievous malady which depriveth man from recognizing the Great Being, and debarreth him from the splendors of the sun of certitude. We pray and hope that through the grace and mercy of God He may remove this mighty obstacle. He, verily, is the Potent, the All-Subduing, the Almighty.
