Every person with even the smallest
consciousness witnesses all the time that every moment of life is dying. When
the first moment dies, the second moment is born. When day dies, night is born.
When childhood dies, adolescence is born. When adolescence dies, young
adulthood begins. When adulthood dies, old age is born. And when old age dies,
then every part of this beautiful statue converts into parables. The bones of
the human skeleton become ashes, and the brain on which human greatness is
based and is a cause for pride and cruelty as a substitute for God Himself,
crumbles and is consumed by the sand. And other humans who are also made of the
same particles of sand crush them under their feet.

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.
