Then consider the secrets deposited in this "Alif," wherein in all the letters are manifestations of this "Alif." For example, witness in this "Alif" the letter "Ba," in its submission. Its Creator was bent over the earth in its entirety, humbling Himself before Allah, as you bear witness to its form. Then it appears on the structure of "Dal," bowing in the presence of Allah, the Guardian, the Beloved. And when it prostrates to Allah, the essence of the letter "Sad" appears, and from it flows the water by which Allah gives life to all in the heavens and the earth in stages of creation, if you ponder upon the signs of creation. Similarly, know all the letters, and all of them appear on different structures as they are manifested by this "Alif," as you see in the alphabetic letters. And when Allah wishes to manifest this "Alif," a radiance shines upon them, in His likeness, as they all appear in the forms of these letters. If they would rid themselves of these limited symbols, then they all are in the structure of this "Alif," and in its form they are sent forth. And if you wish to witness the standing manifestations of this "Alif" in the letters, in its form and standing, you will be convinced within yourself that it stands above all things.
