After scaling the high summits of wonderment the wayfarer cometh to The Valley of True Poverty and Absolute Nothingness This station is the dying from self and the living in God, the being poor in self and rich in the Desired One. Poverty as here referred to signifieth being poor in the things of the created world, rich in the things of God’s world. For when the true lover and devoted friend reacheth to the presence of the Beloved, the sparkling beauty of the Loved One and the fire of the lover’s heart will kindle a blaze and burn away all veils and wrappings. Yea, all he hath, from heart to skin, will be set aflame, so that nothing will remain save the Friend. When the qualities of the Ancient of Days stood revealed, Then the qualities of earthly things did Moses burn away.
