Grafting

It happened that at night while sleeping the eyes opened, and in experience this point came that after rising from sleep the mind remains empty. Until the movement of the eyelids repeatedly strikes the eyeballs, no thought comes into the mind. Because the eye had opened suddenly, there was some delay in the movement of the eyelids. By this relation the mind remained empty. Consciously the mind was empty, but a glimpse of the unconscious fell upon the screen of the mind in such a way that first there was a flash, then in that flash a resinous ball burst.

What is this resinous ball? I observed it in the war of 1965 and 1971. When on the radar the image reflects that airplanes are coming to attack, then balls are thrown to illuminate the sky, and these balls brighten the atmosphere with very white light. And these balls are in fact resinous.

When mercury light burst from the mind, the inner eye saw that creation is occurring in dyes. That is, for everything present in the universe there is a specific dye. Just as in the dye of a sparrow plastic is placed and a sparrow is made, and in the dye of a pigeon the same plastic is placed and a pigeon is made. In the same way in the dyes made by Divine Power the matter transfers by a specific process and new things continue to come into being.

There is a single Being who creates and has endowed another being with the capacity to seek. But this point is undeniable that the second being in creation is compelled to use the same things, the same elements, the same existing matter which the first One and Unique Being has made.

This second being is man. When man brings something new into being or creates, in that secondary creation in some form the things made by God enter. That is, from the creation of God secondary creations come into existence. When these creations absorb into one another or are made to absorb, as a result a third thing comes into being. For example, one manifestation of creation is water, and another manifestation is sweetness. When sweetness and water are combined, syrup comes into being.

By grafting two creations a third thing is made. By grafting among animals the mule comes into existence. By grafting in mango trees countless varieties of mango are made. By analogy this system of grafting is continuously operating in the world. If we look into this field of grafting, it is seen that the capacity of grafting, created by God, is prominently present within man. Between man and tree or between man and animal this boundary is established that man can perform grafting but trees cannot perform grafting.

Those who know the law of sight are aware that when the eye of the soul opens, distances vanish. Thousands of years of interval contract into seconds. From Ādam until the present scientific age all stages of evolution pass before the eyes like a film.

When from the age of caves and stones the sight encompassed the present scientific age, then this anxiety arose that the evolutionary stages which man has named as progress are in reality not progress. The axis of this progress is not human welfare but destruction. Behind this destructive progress there is no reasonable justification, only the piling up of wealth.

When the sight stopped at this point that man is also occupied with grafting of man with man (test tube baby), then clouds of oppression and ignorance were seen rising. The subconscious informed that the ungrateful man has lowered his status and included himself among the qualities of trees.

Trees are such creation of Divine Power that become fuel. The meaning came out that the earth is being compelled to use man as fuel. Since God has bound this earth to fulfill the command of man, therefore the globe is continuously becoming volcanic. Surely if man does not change his state, soon the earth will burn his species into ashes.

فَاعْتَبِرُوا يَا أُولِي الْأَبْصَارِ
(Surah al-Ḥashr, 59:2)

So take heed, O people of insight.
