The Word of God is the king of words and its pervasive
influence is incalculable. It hath ever dominated and will continue to dominate
the realm of being. The Great Being saith: The Word is the master key for the
whole world, inasmuch as through its potency the doors of the hearts of men,
which in reality are the doors of heaven, are unlocked. No sooner had but a
glimmer of its effulgent splendour shone forth upon the mirror of love than the
blessed word ‘I am the Best-Beloved’ was reflected therein.
