The Two Wahids
1. The Two Wahids
Of the two Wahids, referred to in the communication, the Primal Point speaks of Sayyid Yahya of Darab as "Al-Akbar وحید اکبر", and Mirza Yahya Subh-i Azal as "the Fruit (Al-Thamara)ثمره بیان", "the Mirror (Al-Mirat)", "the Mirror of God (Mirat-allah)مرآت الله", and "the Mirror of Eternity" (Mirat-al-Azal)مرآت الأزل.
Sayyid Yahya of Darab held the station of John the Baptist, and Mirza Yahya Subh-i Azal that of the Imam Husayn, the station of 'Radiance' (Nuriyyat) and 'Husayniyyat' which station is merged in the same titles And rank which the Primal Point gave to Mirza Yahya Subh-i Azal as to himself. See "Subh-i Azal's Specific Nomination".
All the persons referred to by Mirza Jani as ‘claimants’ as well as all those who came forward and advanced vain claims after the execution of Mirza Jani were pretenders. The Shi'as expect the reappearance of the Absent Twelfth Imam from his mysterious retreat as the Mahdi or the Qaim. They also await the return of the Imam Husayn after the Absent Twelfth Imam.
Deliberately and purposely, all these pretenders without exception, relegated the Primal Point, a major manifestation according to him, to the station of absent Imam and asserted identity with 'the Imam Husayn', whom they identified with Him-Whom-God-Will-Make-Manifest, the Promised One of the Bayan. On the strength of the Point's theory of theophanies enunciated in the Persian Bayan, the Twelfth Imam and the Imam Husayn, were merely mirrors, who revolved around the Sun of Truth, the Primal Point, according to him, and were dependent on, and not independent of, the Primal Point while He-Whom-God-Will-Make-Manifest, as meant by the Primal Point, is a major manifestation like the Primal Point and independent of him.
