7. Invisible, formless and nntellahle is that Creator; He is one 
withi all, and all are one in Him. Whether manifest or hidden, He 
is all pervading. The righteous recognize Him, hut not the sinful. 
He hath no son nor father nor mother, no family hath He, and no rela- 
tions. He hath begotten none, nor is He begotten of any, but all created 
beings proceed from Him. All things, as many as exist, He made ; nor 
was He made by any one. He was at the beginning, and He is now ; 
He alone remainetli existent and no one else. All else that are, are 
mad and blind, for after but two or four days they do their work and 
die. 
Whate’er He willed that He did, He doeth that He willeth to do 
No one is there to prevent Him, and, by his mere will, He gave life to 
all. 
1 The Urdu gloss translates baratd by “ near,” but I know of no 
authority for this meaning. Baratd means batd hud, twisted as a rope is twisted 
hence involved in, closely connected with. Compare Bihdri Sat’sai, 59, ditha barata 
bddhi atani, twisting their (mutual) glances into a rope, they bind it from balcony to 
balcony. 3
