repository of mysteries

Junun was the pen name of my dear grandfather, Jinab-i-Mirza Faraj&rsquo,u&rsquo,llah Fanaian who, in his early adolescence, set out upon the path followed by the unsung heroes and heroines of a heroic age. This was a time of great turmoil in Persia when the brilliant sun of a new Divine Revelation was breaking through the dense and darksome clouds of corruption, degradation and fanaticism. This was a time of great sacriice&mdash,willing sacriice even unto death&mdash,for the Cause of God.From his obscure beginnings in Sangsar, a small town in the Persian Province of Semnan, and having only been taught the Persian alphabet as a child, Junun developed into a mystic of profound insight, and a poet of superlative skill.Within the pages of this book is my humble rendering into English of my beloved grandfather&rsquo,s majestic, mystical poem,&nbsp,The Repository of Mysteries, the verses of which are overlowing with Junun&#39,s feeling of wonderment at the visions of unearthly realms that were unveiled before his inner eye through the grace of God. The epicde picts the stages of man&#39,s spiritual journey to God, and tells of the Prophets through Whom the loving Creator has communicated with humankind through the ages.Junun&rsquo,s rhyming couplets ring out with his overpowering yearning and love for the Beauty of God revealed in the inner essence of Bahá &rsquo,u&rsquo,lláh, Who is the Promised One of all Ages, and the Supreme Manifestation of God for this glorious new Era in the history of humanity._,
