When
I grew up and came into full use of my senses, I came to see that we are trying
to resolve our problems by supplication (Dua) alone. We sometimes do general
supplication and at other times supplication of a more specific and particular
sort. More than half a century has passed, and I have never seen that as a
nation our supplicate for victory over the infidel nation has been accepted by
God. Why this so? The supplications are not accepted because there is no action
with the supplication, and the law of creation is that action itself is
creation. Ever since we stopped taking action and became dependent on
supplication only the divine light depart from us and the fire foul us to be a
morsel of rich fuel. Oh, preachers! Oh, people of the pulp: Oh, intellectuals
of the nation! For God's sake, wake up the sleeping nation and tell them that
those nations that do not act become cripple irritated, and enslaved.

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.
