"No vision taketh in Him, but He taketh in all vision." (Iqan 170) (3:4) "All that the sages and mystics have said or written have never exceeded, nor can they ever hope to exceed, the limitations to which man's finite mind hath been strictly subjected... The meditations of the profoundest thinker... are but a reflection of that which hath been created within themselves, through the Revelation of the Lord, their God. Whoever pondereth this truth in his heart will readily admit that there are certain limits which no human being can possibly transgress." (Gl 317- 18) (3:5) "The human spirit which distinguishes man from animal is the rational soul; and these two names-- the human spirit and the rational soul-- designate one thing... The rational soul... discovers the realities of things... but the human spirit does not become acquainted with the divine secrets and heavenly realities... unless assisted by the spirit of faith." (Bwf 317)
(3:6)
