We
see that God's winged creatures, which number in millions and millions, eat
grain, but there is an unsolved mystery in this, for when the farmer gathers
his cultivated crops he does not leave even a single grain. There is no special
cultivation for these winged creatures. Where, then, do these birds eat? The
law is that when the flock of birds comes down to the earth nature creates the
grain there. If the food supply system for birds were based on the farmer, then
all the birds would have died of hunger.

What is the universe? It is a point, and this point is a
divine light, and the divine light is itself a light.
Every point is the imprint of luminescence (Tajalli). When
this imprint transforms itself into the divine light then it becomes Aura
(Jism-e-Misali). The display of the Aura is the physical body.
The physical body is built up as a structure of bones, flesh,
and muscle. The skin is a kind of plaster and color on this building. The life
of the human being who is made up of veins, arteries, nerves, bones, and flesh,
is nothing except senses.
