- Mystic's Flight, The: The Parable of Majnún and Laylí, by Jack McLean (2001-07). This classic love tale of the Middle East, quoted by Bahá'u'lláh in the Seven Valleys, is prized by Sufi mystics as a spiritual allegory of the soul's search for union with God. A literary-critical analysis of the text yields theological clues. Articles-unpublished.
- Tablet of the Ascent of the Soul and the Hour of Departure, by The Báb, Mohammad Norozi, trans. (2025-07). Meditation on the nature of the soul, the illusion of worldly existence, and the eternal reality beyond mortality. The pure soul radiates influence; the impure is veiled. Sleep itself is a mirror of resurrection, and the angel of death brings liberation. Translations.
