Sixth Letter
Most venerated Empress,
Attached is another letter from the invisible world! May it, like the previous ones, be enjoyed by you and have a healthy effect on you!
Let us constantly aspire towards a more intimate communion with the purest love that is manifested in man, and glorified in Jesus, the Nazarene!
Much revered Empress, our future bliss is in our power once we are granted the grace to understand that only love can give us supreme happiness, and that faith alone in divine love brings forth in our hearts the feeling that makes us happy eternally, the faith that develops, refines, and completes our capacity to love.
I still have many themes to communicate to you. I will try to accelerate the continuation of what I have started to tell you, and I would consider myself very happy if I could hope to have been able to occupy some moments of your precious life, pleasantly and usefully.
Johann-Kaspar Lavater
Zurich, December 16th, 1798
