Thou seest me detached from everything save Thee and
clinging to Thee. Guide me then in my doings in a manner which profiteth me for
the glory of Thy Cause and the loftiness of the state of Thy servants.
A memorandum dated 6 August 1997 from the Research
Department of the Universal House of Justice indicates that:
“No authorized translation of this prayer has been issued. A
provisional translation of this prayer was provided a few years ago for a
member of the Bahá'í World Centre staff, who was told that he could share it
with friends and that it could be used pending the publication of an authorized
translation…
This prayer was revealed by the Blessed Beauty for
Jináb-i-Samandar [Shaykh Kázim Samandar], the father of the Hand
of the Cause of God Tarázu'lláh Samandarí, to assist him in making a difficult
decision. The prayer was to be recited nineteen times, followed by meditation
on the problem, the formulation of a solution, and the implementation of the
conceived solution.”
