| Holy Spirit |
|
| The entity which acts as an intermediary between God and His Manifestations. ‘This link is similar to the rays of the sun by which energy is transmitted to the planets.'28 It is impossible for man to understand the nature of the Holy Spirit. In all Dispensations ‘the Holy Spirit manifested itself to the Founders of the great world religions and enabled them to reveal the teachings of God to humanity.'29 In order for the Manifestation to convey to His followers that He was animated by the power of God, He has used symbolic language concerning the appearance of the Holy Spirit to Him. Thus Moses heard the voice of God through the Burning Bush, the Dove descended upon Jesus, Muḥammad saw the Angel Gabriel, and Bahá'u'lláh refers to the Maid of Heaven proclaiming to Him His mission. |
