The epitome of the discourse is that the Reality of Christ was a clear mirror, and the Sun of Reality-- that is to say, the Essence of Oneness, with its infinite perfections and attributes-- became visible in the mirror. The meaning is not that the Sun, which is the Essence of the Divinity, became divided and multiplied-- for the Sun is one-- but it appeared in the mirror. This is why Christ said, "The Father is in the Son," meaning that the Sun is visible and manifest in this mirror
(114:2)
