    Very beautiful and inspiring and comforting , I'm sorry for not understanding and any comments i made previous in my pride and ignorance , of which i guess i can only blame myself, and the superstitions of scholars and preachers of both christianity and Islamic traditions. Are still learning but praise God and thanks to people like you I've seen the light and the right path, thank you again.

      Kelly Snook the Words in this TABLET nay every letter has a potency for the listener believers lovers an sincere ones to become a living walking breathing prayer
      Ahmad received along his journey to delivering this Tablet to the Bab such deeds by everyone he met along the way he was abused robbed assaulted degraded 100 times in the Path to deliver to the Bab this Tablet an all along it unaware of its content ,as he was instructed by Bahaullah no 1 but the Bab was to open it.
      Our blessing an bounties to have this Tablet in the year 2021 when were talking this Tablets Journey to Humanity an it started in the 1800s an here on You tube delivered 2021
      this is more than the given ladder (music) we as friends in the Cause of God climb .(every day in our lives )as believers another reward given to us that we partake in when we apply..... our music to.... the.... Word of God.
      .
      Humanities awareness of its Journey and in deeds story of a believers love faithfulness unwavering purpose an obedience, to the instructions Given by Bahaullah to Ahmad is why repeat listening to the words as stated above was needed.
      we are all recipient to the POTENCY of these Bounteous WORDS..... how
      to remove afflictions an grief.. should one who is in affliction or grief read this Tablet with absolute sincerity God will .....dispel his sadness solve his difficulties and remove his afflictions.
      the reward should you chant it ..is.. given to the one who chants it..

I listen to this every morning and night. I remember hearing and seeing a video of you playing piano in a town's square many years ago and each note felt like an acknowledgment of my soul, I couldn't find you for years after and then a week ago, after praying and remembering the feeling I felt hearing you play all those years ago, you appeared. I am very grateful. This gives me so much strength as a being, bahai and as a composer and musician. God bless

      Hi Simin, thanks for your concern about the words, I fully appreciate it. I followed this guidance from the Guardian so I understand it is ok for us to repeat the sacred words in music as long as it is in a reverent manner. I hope and pray that the repetitions don't detract from the meaning. I love this Tablet so much, sometimes I want to read every line again and again! Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy the new music.
      "In response to a question from a believer concerning minor alterations of words for the sake of correct accent or the addition of a word for the sake of perfect meter, the beloved Guardian stated the following:
      "Slight alterations in the text of the prayers are permissible, and I would advise you to give a musical form to the revealed word itself which I feel will be exceedingly effective. I will pray that the Beloved may inspire you to accomplish this great service to His Cause."
      (In the handwriting of Shoghi Effendi, appended to a letter dated 8 April 1931 written on his behalf to an individual believer)

      Don't worry at all@@siminnajibi19​! Please don't feel sorry or sad. We are all learning! I appreciate your concern about proper use of the writings - it is an important concern.
