As to the question of reincarnation which thou hast
inquired: It is better for thee to refer to the Book of Certainty (Iqan)
revealed through the Supreme Pen, wherein the question is fully treated. This
is the explicit text of the divine utterance and therein thou shalt find that
it has been manifestly declared that by "Return" is meant the return
of human perfections and divine illumination. The Book of Iqan has been
translated and possesses the decisive verdict. Consider and peruse it with the
utmost carefulness.
