Page 188 - from Volume One (Display Image)And tyranny, for it is under compulsion. Do you not see it subjugated under the authority of the women of the tails, and they are a group of them from the piercing meteors, so he did not subjugate them except by their gender, for when these men bring down their souls and bring them, and they are the men of customs and traditions, a barrier wall between heaven and hell, an isthmus, in it is mercy, and outwardly before it is torment, so it is a boundary between the abode of the happy And the abode of the miserable is the abode of the people of vision and the abode of the veil, and these men are the happiest people in knowing this wall, and they witness the illusory lines between all opposites, such as his saying between them is an isthmus that they do not desire, so they do not transgress the limits, and they are the men of mercy that expands everything, and they are the ones who are present, and they are all-knowing. It has the privilege of every existing thing over other mental and sensory beings. As for the men of the beginning, they are the ones who have the right to dispose of the divine names, so they cite them from them as God wills, and this is not for others and they bring down everything that is under the disposal of the three men, the men of limit, the inner and the apparent, and they are the greatest of men and they are to blame. This is in their strength. And what appears to them from that is Abu Al-Saud and others, so they and the common people in the appearance of disability and the appearance of the returns are the same. Abu al-Badr, based on what he told us orally, says that among the men of God are those who speak on the mind and what is with the mind, that is, he has no knowledge of his owner and does not intend to introduce him. Abu al-Badr said to me, he would often sing a house, and we had not heard from him other than him And he put his leg in the quagmire of death *** and said to her without your crammed soles And he used to say it is nothing but the five daily prayers and waiting for death and under this speech a great knowledge, and he used to say: A man with God Almighty is like a bird's courier, busy mouth and feet seeking, and all of this is the greatest case of men with God, as the greatest of men treats every home with what it deserves, and the home of this world cannot be treated The investigator, except with what this sheikh mentioned, so if a man appears in this house other than this transaction, he knows that there is a soul and it is imperative that he is commanded by what appeared from him, and they are the messengers and prophets, peace be upon them, and some of the heirs may have an order at a time, and it is a hidden plot, for it is a separation from a station. The slavery for which man was created [ The secret of homes or manifestations of the right in pictures ]As for the secret of the house and the mansions, it is the manifestation of the truth through manifestation in the forms of everything else. Then he said that we say to him, Be, because the very same thing that he hears is the speech of the truth, that thing becomes that thing. A name, and if one appears by his name in this position, it will not appear for that number as an individual, so his eye and his name never meet together, so it is said two three four five to infinity, and every time one drops one from a specific number, the name of that number disappears and its reality disappears. If you say the old, then the newly created, and if you say God, the world is annihilated, and if you clear the world of God s preservation, the world will not exist and art, and if God s protection goes into the world, the world will remain in existence. They are treated with the absence of symptoms for themselves, and thus it is correct that the scholar lacks God in his existence in every soul, and God is always creative and other scholars do not have this position. In a book he wrote on this art, God speaks the truth and He guides the way. Chapter Twenty-six on knowing the poles of symbols and hints of their secrets and sciences on the wayVerily the symbols are evidence of sincerity *** on the hidden meaning in the heart And the worlds have symbols *** and puzzles to be called servants And had it not been for the riddle, the saying would have been unbelief *** and it has led the worlds to obstinacy By symbol they have calculated and said *** with bloodshed and corruption |
