The unseen world is more important than the visible world.
It is very important to understand the unseen world (Ghaib). What we call
religion or faith is actually an indication of the unseen world. Yet religion
discusses the apparent of visible world, but the visible is not in any way
important at any time. The reason is that materialistic things go the way of
mortality and the way itself is mortal. As a lover or devotee of God believes
in the unseen world, so the lover of the material believes in the materialistic
world. The devotee or lover of God cannot live happily without having a strong
faith in the unseen world, any more than the worshiper of the materialistic
world cannot live in harmony without having a good belief in materiality. They
both have the same pattern and have one thing in common, which is that their
belief depends on this pattern. They call this belief their life, and no life
is possible for them without belief, regardless of whether that life is the
life of the godly devout or lover of God or the lover of the materialistic
world.

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.
