Thy letter was received. I hope that thou mayest be protected and assisted under the providence of the True One, be occupied always in mentioning the Lord and display effort to complete thy profession. Thou must endeavour greatly so that thou mayest become unique in thy profession and famous in those parts, because attaining perfection in one's profession in this merciful period is considered to be worship of God. And whilst thou art occupied with thy profession, thou canst remember the True One. (‘Abdu’l-Baha, ‘Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá’ The Compilation of Compilations, vol. I, Some Aspects of Heath, Healing, Nutrition and Related Matters)
