sense. That power and sense is not possessed by mankind, therefore they
have not found any information. For example: If a man possess the power of
hearing, the power of tasting, the power of smelling and the power of
feeling but no power of seeing, he cannot see. Hence, through the powers

hearts of the people of that region.
Do not wonder at the favor and bounty of the Lord. By the favor of God,
how often a drop hath become undulating like a sea, and an atom become
shining like the sun!
The Sun of Truth hath enlightened the divine world and illumined the
