Belief is an essence whose sweetness and taste is better
than anything of this world. But this sweetness and taste is only for that
person who loves God above all else. A person who loves things other than, God
is not, of course, a true lover of God. When we speak of love then we know that
love imposes certain demands, one of which is that love demands sacrifice.
Everyone knows that love is a state of heart and so that physical eyes cannot
see, yet by his actions one can see whether person is in love or not. If
someone says overtly that he loves his sweet heart but does not prove himself
when it comes time to sacrifice, no doubt his love will not be acceptable.

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.
