“ The truth cannot be deceptive, and one who sees it cannot be deceived. ”
All true happiness, pure joy, sweet bounties, and unclouded pleasure are contained within the knowledge and love of God.
~ Said Nursi

The beauty of a finely worked object points to the beauty of the craftsmanship. The beauty of the craftsmanship points to the beauty of the name which was the source of the craftsmanship. The beauty of the name of the craftsman's art points to the beauty of the craftsman's attributes manifested in that art.
