Lawh-i-Ayat-i-Nur/Page2/Crawford30

By the One True God! If I so willed to circumscribe the three stations within these three Letters, there would never be enough Tablets, nor would the ink cease to flow. Yet each station shall be condensed in such wise that ye may acquire knowledge, for it is unbecoming of the Wielder of the Pen to be in the grip of fear from those who reject faith and join partners with God, though hatred resideth within their hearts for this Youth Whom is settled in the direction of ‘Iráq, and they contemptuously turn away all who orient themselves toward and seek enlightenment from the Horizon of Oneness which is illuminating the horizon with shining glory. Thus do We relate unto thee the mysteries of the Cause, perchance ye may be of those who become well informed. Otherwise, by Him Who holdeth the soul of Ḥusayn in His hand, were it not for the pompous gait of the people 15 restraining Me, I would indeed mention in the Tablet whatsoever would enable thee to become detached from whomsoever dwelleth in the heavens or on the earth, and relate unto thee a station which hath not been heard by those who hear, nor have they attained unto the Spring of flowing Grace which shall never cease to flow, though it floweth from a firstness which hath no beginning unto a lastness which shall never see its end, for the Fountainhead of this Divine Spring and this Unique Ocean is naught but the sureness of the Grace of Lordship and the essences of the knowledge of Absoluteness. As such, how could this Sweet Fountainhead run dry? Nay, by My Lord! Never could it run dry, nor could it ever be exhausted. To this testifieth that which We hath revealed, and before that, the members of the Concourse of the Most High testifieth. How could the grace of God come to an end? How could the overflowing waters of His Presence be cutoff? Nay, by the Lord of the heavens and the earth! His mercy hath surpassed all things and His grace hath encompassed all beings.
