It is God's will that the differences between nations should
disappear. Those who help the Cause of Unity on, are doing God's work. Unity is
the Divine Bounty of this brilliant century. Praise be to God, there are many
societies and many meetings held for Unity. Hatred is not so much the cause of
separation now as it used to be; the cause of disunion now is mostly prejudice.
