"O My servants! My holy, My divinely ordained Revelation may be likened unto an ocean in whose depths are concealed innumerable pearls of great price, of surpassing luster.

Behold it is closer to you than your life- vein!" "Immerse yourselves in this Ocean in whose depths lay hidden the pearls of wisdom and of utterance."
