being a dense mirror to the divine name of Light among the All-Glorious Maker’s most beautiful names, the duties the sun displays through the dominical command and divine subjugation, bring this truth closer to the understanding. It is as follows.

Together with its loftiness, the sun is infinitely close to all transparent and shining things, indeed, is closer to them than their own selves, and it has an effect on them in numerous ways such as through its manifestation, its image, and power of disposal, yet those transparent objects are thousands of years distant from it, they can in no way have an effect on it, they cannot claim to be close to it. Also, the fact that the sun’s is as though present and seeing in all transparent particles, wherever its light enters even, is understood by reason of its reflection and image being apparent in accordance with the particles’ capacities and colours. Furthermore, the sun’s comprehensiveness and penetration increase to the vast extent of its luminosity. It is because of the greatness of its luminosity that the tiniest things cannot hide or escape from it. This means that by virtue of the mystery of luminosity its immense vastness does not exclude even insignificant and tiny things; on the contrary, it takes them within the sphere of its comprehension. Moreover, if to suppose the impossible we were to imagine that the sun acted with will in the tasks and manifestations its displays, with divine permission it would function in everything from particles and droplets and the surface of the sea to the planets with such ease and speed and breadth that one would suppose that it performed these mighty disposals at a mere command. A particle and a planet would be equal in the face of its command. The effulgence it bestowed on the surface of the sea it would bestow also with perfect order on a particle in accordance with the particle’s capacity.

Thus, we see that the sun, which is a luminous bubble in the seas of the skies and a small, dense mirror to the manifestation of the Absolutely Powerful One’s name of Light, observedly displays examples of the three principles of this truth. So we surely believe with complete certainty as though witnessing it that the All-Glorious One, Who is the Light of Light, the Illuminator of Light, the Determiner of Light, and in comparison to Whose knowledge and power the sun’s light and heat is as dense as earth, is all-present and all-seeing and infinitely close to all things with His knowledge and power, and that things are utterly distant from Him, and that He does things with such ease and facility that it is understood He creates with the ease and speed of a mere command, and that nothing at all, great or small, particular or universal, can escape from the sphere of His power, and that His magnificence encompasses all things. And this has to be believed.
