which is firmly established....

The other station is the station of distinction, and pertaineth to the
world of creation, and to the limitations thereof. In this respect, each
Manifestation of God hath a distinct individuality, a definitely
prescribed mission, a predestined revelation, and specially designated
limitations. Each one of them is known by a different name, is
characterized by a special attribute, fulfils a definite mission, and is
entrusted with a particular Revelation. Even as He saith: “Some of the
Apostles We have caused to excel the others. To some God hath spoken, some
He hath raised and exalted. And to Jesus, Son of Mary, We gave manifest
signs, and We strengthened Him with the Holy Spirit.”

It is because of this difference in their station and mission that the
words and utterances flowing from these Well Springs of Divine knowledge
appear to diverge and differ. Otherwise, in the eyes of them that are
initiated into the mysteries of Divine wisdom, all their utterances are,
in reality, but the expressions of one Truth. As most of the people have
failed to appreciate those stations to which We have referred, they,
therefore, feel perplexed and dismayed at the varying utterances
pronounced by Manifestations that are essentially one and the same.

It hath ever been evident that all these divergencies of utterance are
attributable to differences of station. Thus, viewed from the standpoint
of their oneness and sublime detachment, the attributes of Godhead,
Divinity, Supreme Singleness, and Inmost Essence, have been, and are

throne of Divine Revelation, and are established upon the seat of Divine
Concealment. Through their appearance the Revelation of God is made
manifest, and by their countenance the Beauty of God is revealed. Thus it
