Something of this that the hearing did not reach him, as well as the visual power, God made the mind poor to it in terms of the sights it reached, so it does not know greenness, yellowness, blueness, whiteness, blackness, or what is between them as long as the eye does not enjoy the mind with it, and so is all known forces. With the senses, then the imagination is poor in these senses, so it does not imagine at all except what these forces give it. Obstacles may arise in it that prevent it from the imagination, so the imagination misses many things because of the weakness of the preserving power due to the presence of the impediment. It contains from what the imagination has seized of matters in the form of evidence for a matter and proof in it based on the senses or necessities, and they are matters that are concentrated in the nature. It is true, so see, my brother, how poor the mind is, as nothing of what we have mentioned is known only by the mediation of this strong and in it there are ills that are in it. As much as his Lord, how did he imitate his thoughts and wound his Lord?

[ The path of reason to God from the point of view of the law is closer to it from the point of view of thought ]

We have learned that the mind has nothing in its own right, and that what it acquires from the sciences is only from the fact that it possesses the quality of acceptance. He imitates his senses and imitates him, so he is not strong in grasping what he has unless the force of memory and memorization helps him to do so. With this knowledge that the strong do not transcend their character and what gives them their reality, and that by looking at themselves, he has no knowledge except for the necessities with which he was created. He does not accept the words of those who tell him that then Another power behind you will give you other than what the thinking power has given you. The people of God, the angels, the prophets, and the saints have attained it, and the revealed books have pronounced it, so accept from them these divine news, so imitating the truth is more preferable. Her thoughts, so what is yours, O wise one who denies them, do not accept them from those who brought them, especially minds who say that they are in the position of belief in God and His Messengers and His Books

[ Mathematics, retreats and struggles and their impact on true knowledge ]

And when the minds of the people of faith in God Almighty saw that God had asked them to know him after she knew him with her theoretical evidence, she knew that there is another knowledge of God that she does not reach through thought. Ideas are related to the universes, and I took this method from the prophets and messengers, and I heard that the truth, glory be to Him, descends to His servants and seeks their sympathy.

The Almighty said: Whoever comes to me running, I come to him running

And if his heart expands the majesty and greatness of God, so he turns to Him with all of it and is cut off from all that it takes from him of this power. In this direction, God bestowed upon him from His light a divine knowledge that he knew that God Almighty through the way of witnessing and transfiguration does not accept the universe or reject it, and that is why he said that in this he refers to the knowledge of God In terms of sighting, it is a remembrance for those who have a heart and did not say otherwise.

[ The heart as a force beyond the stage of the mind that connects the servant to the Lord ]

The heart is known by the change of conditions always, so it does not remain in one state, so are the divine manifestations.

The legislator said that the heart is between two of the fingers of the Most Gracious, He turns it as He wills

It fluctuates with the fluctuation of manifestations, and the mind is not like that. The heart is the force behind the stage of the mind. If he wanted the truth in this verse with the heart, it is the mind. What he said to the one who has a heart, then every human being has a mind and not every human being gives this power beyond the stage of the mind called the heart in this verse. He said, For he who has a heart, then turning in the heart is analogous to the divine transformation of images, so knowledge of the truth is not from the truth except with the heart, not with the mind. Glory be to God!
