バハーウッラーの神秘的 作品からの抜粋　前編

‘Tis from Our rapture that the clouds of realms above are raining down; ’ Tis from Our anthem that the mysteries of faith are raining down. Perchance thou may become pure spirit; attain, without taking a single step, the loftiest stations of mystic ascent; and explore, without leaving thine outward habitation, the furthermost reaches of the worlds of inner significance. Thereupon would thou, with a divine rapture, experience true spiritual attraction, lay down thy life in the path of the Friend, and sacrifice thy soul in the wilderness of His love. This indeed is the meaning of stillness in flight and flight in stillness, of fluidity in solidity and solidity in fluidity.
