| abstract note | Two early Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh, probably the earliest, Rashḥ-i'Amá and Lawḥ Kull aṭ-Ṭa’ám, one in Persian the other in Arabic, were translated into English and studied by Stephen Lambden and extensively researched by Vahid Ra’fati (in Persian) a decade ago, but they are still the topic of further investigation. In several places in his writings, 'Abdu’l-Bahá relates to, comments on, and interprets certain themes in these early writings. The importance of these tablets, as well as the third one, the Qaṣídatu 'izz warqá’iyyah, is that they outline the future development of Bahá’u’lláh’s teachings about the Divine and the divine manifestations, and their relation to the two levels of reality: that which is attainable by the temporal senses and that which is attainable by the prophets' super-awareness. |
