Transcending all Colors and Vanishing into Colorlessness
Q: Would you care to speak about your past?
A: I have lived both in the Hell and in Paradise. I have been both with good and bad ones. I have experienced various forms and various good and bad human bodies...
Human race is made up from different groups. Each human category sees, thinks, accepts and acts according to its own method. To guide and teach each group you should be able to think, see and understand like them. One cannot learn this science through oral accounts or books. You have to feel and experience every form.
To comprehend closely and not theoretically the structure of people's movement and life I became like them and got directly involved with their problems and difficulties; I lived like them. I took their appearance yet never became one of them; I only played their role. However, this role has been so meticulously played that it seemed perfectly normal and natural...
I established a deep relation with each human category; I played their role and identified myself with their characters. That is how I knew their lives, their worlds, their weakness and strength, their problems, pains and thoughts.
I identified myself with everyone but no one ever united with me but the One. I adopted the appearance of each group and when I completed my experience of it I threw it away and tried to persuade that group to do the same and often it happened so. Unless one could experience each form through a complete observation, one would not throw it away...
It is not possible to comprehend featurelessness and colorlessness unless one could fully play different roles.
I lived through every form, from ignorant to erudite, from holy to sinful, from strong to weak, from poor to arrogant, from old to young, from pessimistic to optimistic, from student to master and from human to animal. I became a righteous and a sinful person, yet I was only an observer and became aware [of their situation]. I kept company with the holiest and most evil human beings and made them familiar with divine teachings.
Then I expressed divine teachings in a way everyone - every human category - could clearly see and hear. I taught in a way that, especially, immoral and sinful people could comprehend divine guidance. They need most [to receive] divine teachings and not holy persons or those who live with the delusion of holiness and guidance.
Most people live in deviation, sin and darkness; therefore, I am firmly decided to save and to teach them.
