131:8.2 " How [[pure]] and tranquil is the [[Supreme]] One and yet how [[powerful]] and mighty, how [[deep]] and unfathomable! This God of heaven is the [[honored]] [[ancestor]] of all things. If you know the [[Eternal]], you are [[enlightened]] and [[wise]]. If you know not the [[Eternal]], then does [[ignorance]] [[manifest]] itself as [[evil]], and thus do the [[passions]] of [[sin]] arise. This wondrous [[Being]] existed before the [[heavens]] and the [[earth]] were. He is truly [[spiritual]]; he stands alone and changes not. He is indeed the world's [[mother]], and all [[creation]] moves around him. This Great One imparts himself to men and thereby enables them to excel and to [[survive]]. Even if one has but a little [[knowledge]], he can still walk in the ways of [[the Supreme]]; he can [[conform]] to the [[Law|will]] of [[heaven]]. | 131:8.2 " How [[pure]] and tranquil is the [[Supreme]] One and yet how [[powerful]] and mighty, how [[deep]] and unfathomable!
