This is how we are to seek truth-- To let go of every fiber of who we are, of desire and the hope of having things our way. Instead we must open our hearts to what is whether or not is meets with our expectations...
Song lyrics draw from the Koran and the writings of Baha'u'llah:
"Deep in the mist, in the depths of the valley below
The wayfarer stirs, he desperately longs to behold
A voice from within is calling him to arise from the dust--
Will you soar in the realms above?
The pathway unsure, will he travel this journey alone?
Driven by truth, the truth he’s longing to know,
A voice from within is calling him to arise from the dust--
Will you soar in the realms above?
Heavenly morn, will the rays of the dawn return once more?
Reawake won’t you find your way back home?
Chorus
A knower is he, who is dry in the sea
From the fire will emerge cool
Empty of self he will walk on the waves
In each face the beloved
Traversing the planes hidden secrets revealed
Truth at hand leaving loneliness behind
Verse
Drawn to the edge, and the ocean is drawing him near
The journey so long, will his wandering ever be clear?
A voice from within is calling him to arise from the dust
Will you soar in the realms above?
Heavenly morn, will the rays of the dawn return once more?
Reawake won’t you find your way back home?
Chorus
“The Bayan (the esteemed Holy Book revealed by the Bab Himself) is from beginning to end the repository of all His attributes and the treasury of both His fire and His light” “The whole of the Bayan", the Bab said, "is only a leaf amongst the leaves of His Paradise.” “The year-old germ that holdeth within itself the potentialities of the Revelation, endowed with a potency superior to the combined forces of the whole of the Bayan.” -- God Passes By pg. 29,30
