CLXII: The All-Merciful hath conferred upon man… |
The All-Merciful hath conferred upon man
the faculty of vision, and endowed him with the power
of hearing. Some have described him as the “lesser
world,” when, in reality, he should be regarded as
the “greater world.” The potentialities inherent in
the station of man, the full measure of his destiny on
earth, the innate excellence of his reality, must all
be manifested in this promised Day of God.
|
The Pen of the Most High hath, at all times and
under all conditions, remembered, with joy and tenderness,
His loved ones, and hath counselled them to
follow in His way. Well is it with him whom the
changes and chances of this world have failed to deter
from recognizing the Day Spring of the Unity of
God, who hath quaffed, with unswerving resolve, and
in the name of the Self-Subsisting, the sealed wine of
341
His Revelation. Such a man shall be numbered with
the inmates of Paradise, in the Book of God, the Lord
of all worlds.
