What Is the Secret of “Aḥṣā Kulla Shayʾ”?

“Enumeration of all things” can be understood, from one perspective, as “the treasury of all things, the coffer of creation, and the broad outlines of the Book of Existence.” It can also be seen as the “source of the primal substances and elements of creation,” in which all things lie, “raw and ripe.” Its “seeds and trees”—the original seed of every creature, and the full growth of each one—are all contained there. It is also that very “Supreme Mystery” and that very “Single Point” in which the Creator of existence has gathered all realities.

It is also the “letters of the alphabet of creation,” from which the words, sentences, and book of existence take shape. He is the All-Knowing.
