A mureed then carries on his return journey through the vegetable kingdom. He adopts harmlessness, usefulness, the medicinal and healing properties, and self-sacrifice for the purpose of another, all such qualities of the vegetable. He shows in his personality the sweetness of the fruit, the perfume, color, and delicacy of a flower, Then he acquires the quality of the rock when it has no effect upon him for what purpose he may be used, whether to crown a dome, or for the base of a building. Neither climate, nor day nor night can make any difference to him, neither sorrow nor joy can touch him, he becomes free from all affects. Then a mureed arrives to a condition where he sojourns in a star, planet, moon or sun, in other words he himself becomes soul. His star quality brightens him, his planet-quality produces within him a world of his own, his moon-quality becomes the receiver of all Divine Light and his sun-quality produces in his voice, word and glance the power of illumination.
