Stages of development

Month, Day: 182, Sovereignty, Perfection (Beauty) 

Gleanings 82,3:

Much hath been written in the books of old concerning the various stages in the development of the soul, such as concupiscence, irascibility, inspiration, benevolence, contentment, Divine good-pleasure, and the like; the Pen of the Most High, however, is disinclined to dwell upon them. Every soul that walketh humbly with its God, in this Day, and cleaveth unto Him, shall find itself invested with the honor and glory of all goodly names and stations.    

 Seven Valleys and Four Valleys, category.

Words - Maqsud

Month, Day: 182, Questions, Honour (Independence) 

Tablet of Maqṣúd:

 No man of wisdom can demonstrate his knowledge save by means of words. This showeth the significance of the Word as is affirmed in all the Scriptures, whether of former times or more recently. For it is through its potency and animating spirit that the people of the world have attained so eminent a position. Moreover words and utterances should be both impressive and penetrating. However, no word will be infused with these two qualities unless it be uttered wholly for the sake of God and with due regard unto the exigencies of the occasion and the people.

Bahá’í Readings, page 313

"And now I give you a commandment that shall be for a covenant between you and me - that ye have faith; that your faith be steadfast as a rock that no earthly storms can move, that nothing can disturb, and that it endure through all things even to the end … 

As ye have faith so shall your powers and blessings be. 

This is the balance - this is the balance - this is the balance."

~'Abdu’l-Bahá, 

See, Crush the mind, from January of 2020. That was over two years before the buckets'o'bits got so much attention as if humanity did not matter. Now, the stakes are heavier with some bright lights to discuss. The DOE in charge of the wannabe (AI) brings hundreds of thousands of scientists into the fray whereas before marketing and hopes related to that energy ran the show. 

Relates to dynamics beyond the mathematical approximations which are associated with the endless potention of people and their talented efforts.

Animal condition

Month, Day: 182, Power, Words (Beauty) 

The Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys, Wonderment:

Likewise, reflect upon the perfection of man’s creation, and that all these planes and states are folded up and hidden away within him.

    Dost thou reckon thyself only a puny form

    When within thee the universe is folded?

Then we must labor to destroy the animal condition, till the meaning of humanity shall come to light.

Prophets instructing sages

Month, Day: 182, Will, Loftiness (Grace) 

Lawḥ-i-Ḥikmat, Tablet of Wisdom:

Although it is recognized that the contemporary men of learning are highly qualified in philosophy, arts and crafts, yet were anyone to observe with a discriminating eye he would readily comprehend that most of this knowledge hath been acquired from the sages of the past, for it is they who have laid the foundation of philosophy, reared its structure and reinforced its pillars. Thus doth thy Lord, the Ancient of Days, inform thee. The sages aforetime acquired their knowledge from the Prophets, inasmuch as the latter were the Exponents of divine philosophy and the Revealers of heavenly mysteries. Men quaffed the crystal, living waters of Their utterance, while others satisfied themselves with the dregs.
