As for the Parabolic [Manifestations] (al-Mithliyya): the manifestation of the Master, the Greatest Name and the Most Sublime and Noble Veil [Muhammad], has preceded in that magnificent form and those physical stations. That form is counted among the personages of the Name—may His power be exalted. However, in reality, it is Essential, Anza’ite, Unique, and Eternal (Dhātiyya Anza’iyya Fardāniyya Ṣamadāniyya). It is the Essence that does not partition, does not divide, and cannot be counted or enumerated. This is a matter whose meaning is complex and ambiguous, and we shall clarify it further.
Know—may Allah guide us and you to that which brings success, for He is the High, the Great—that the Ancient Meaning, the High, the Great, willed and desired to let the human world, which affirms Monotheism, know the status of the Master the Name in relation to his Master, his Goal, and his Meaning. This was by way of honoring him and providing recognition to the weak world. Thus, He manifested to him with the Perfection of the Essence and the Luminosity of the Divinity (Lāhūt).
Consequently, the body of the Master the Name—may His power be exalted—which was created from the 'Light of Light,' vanished. Nothing remained firm before the Light of the Essence except that which emerged from it without parting or separation, and that is the Spirit of the Mīm—may His power be exalted.
