The Value of Perispirit
We explained about perispirit in pages 402 to 412 and the book of “Dynamism of Creation” (notion 11, in response to the question by Mr. Mahmoodi). In short, we denoted the perispirit as the third force or the intermediary of body and spirit. The Perispirit is neither as dense as the body or as delicate as the spirit. Instead, it consists of very delicate and ethereal substances, more ethereal than the air.
After explanations of creatures of creation, it is necessary to explain the perispirit and its value. Also, the fact that all creatures and objects in this world have a perispirit.
However, since one cannot touch sense or see the perispirit and spirit, they should be described through a parable so that it can become understandable to a degree, just as one cannot describe the notion of color to a congenital blind by any means.
Any object that one sees in the universe possesses a reflection or shadow. In other words, its image reflects in the universe, just like a picture of an object seen in a mirror. Whatever there is in the universe, has a shadow, an image, or a reflection, and it occupies somewhere in space. That occupied space and reflection in the universe is called the perispirit, and therefore it is called a “mold” because it is a similar body figure.
