raw upon, you will soon see your fears melting
away.
(89) FOOD-Storage
(89) FOOD-Storage
With regard to the storing of food--this is something which the Spiritual
Assembly will have to determine, based on local conditions; and based on
discussions with Local Authorities. The Guardian feels it is not a subject
which can be generally legislated upon.
(90) GOD--Nature of our Knowledge
(90) GOD--Nature of our Knowledge
We find God only through the Intermediary of His Prophet. We see the
Perfection of God in His Prophets. Time and space are physical things;
God, the Creator, is not a "place" as we conceive of place in physical
terms. God is the Infinite Essence, the Creator. We cannot picture Him or
His state, but if we did, we would be His equals, not His creatures. God
is never flesh, but mirrored in the attributes of His Prophets we see His
Divine characteristics and perfections.

He will pray for the progress and happiness of the soul of your dear
daughter in the invisible, spiritual worlds. He feels your attitude in

happiness now.

He leaves such matters as investments, etc., to the discretion of
individuals who are free to consult experts and make their own decisions,

(93) MANIFESTATIONS--Future Manifestations
The bud, the flower, the fruit are only symbols to convey to us the sense
of the progress being made by man in receiving ever fuller Revelations
from God. In spite of the vast spiritual significance of what Baha'u'llah
has brought to the world we humans have infinite progress to make in the
future. Future Prophets will bring us new laws suitable to our state of
development and continue to educate us on this planet, but they will be
under the shadow of Baha'u'llah for five thousand centuries.
(94) PHOTOGRAPHS--of the Master
(94) PHOTOGRAPHS--of the Master
There is no objection to your copying pictures of the Master for your
friends, but do not do it on a wholesale scale. He has always preferred
that the friends should have the Master's photo rather than his own.
