Answer: By “the Holy Spirit” is meant the outpouring grace
of God and the effulgent rays that emanate from His Manifestation. Thus Christ
was the focal centre of the rays of the Sun of Truth, and from this mighty
centre—the reality of Christ—the grace of God shone upon the other mirrors
which were the realities of the Apostles.
