Beskrivelse
This book is a translation into English of the epic poem of a 19th century Persian mystic known as Junun (Jinab-i-Mirza Faraj'u'llah Fanaian), a hero of the dawn of a new Faith that was breaking through the gloom of a corrupt and downtrodden society. "The Repository of Mysteries" can be described as a mystic manual to guide the seeker in the search for the Beloved. The soul yearns to return to its spiritual source. Although the soul starts its existence at the moment of the conception of the human embryo, its creation comes from the celestial realm, which is its natural home. It, therefore, longs to break its earthly fetters and attain the bliss and rapture of that heavenly sphere.Thus the theme of "The Repository of Mysteries" is concerned with bringing out the innate potential that lies at the core of each soul. The spiritual wayfarer succeeds in transcending the limited self and gains access to heights beyond his highest aspiration. He will be reborn into the realm of spirit, becoming a denizen of a world beyond his wildest dreams.The book includes an introduction to the background of the epic and a short biography of the poet.
