.love, the Name of Loving One prevails, and in those who follow the path of contemplation and reflection, the Name of All-Wise body {font-family:'Thorndale AMT',serif;font-size:12.0pt} love, the Name of Loving One prevails, and in those who follow the path of contemplation and reflection, the Name of All-Wise.Thus, if someone is both a teacher, and a policeman, and a clerk of the court, and an inspector in the civil service, in each office he has both relations, and duties, and obligations, and salaries, and responsibilities, and promotion, and enemies and rivals who are the cause of his failures.
