THE PARABLE OF THE LOVER AND THE WHORE
THE PARABLE OF THE LOVER AND THE WHORE
In the Name of God the Unveiler of Truth!
There was once an obsessed lover who married their beloved, but unbeknownst to them, this beloved was a lifelong whore without telling them. Although friends, family and acquaintances tried telling this obsessed lover the true predilections of their lover and that this beloved continued being a professional whore into their marriage; this lover never believed them and instead always projected an image of spotless, irreproachable purity, integrity and innocence upon their beloved which this whore beloved thrived upon like a parasite upon the gullibility of their lover whilst easily concealing their true nature from their lover due to the lover's obsession.
This parable of the lover and the whore is a parable descriptive of 99% of Bahais of all denominations (or adherents to any other manipulative cult). They are obsessed with a figure and a doctrine that is the essence of all impurity and whoredom. Yet they see it not because they are blinded in their obsessive love by what in truth is an impure, dishonest whore which nothing can dissuade them from relinquishing and seeing the truth and so this whore's real nature as a whore.
While the essence of love is pure whatever its object and whoever its subject, nevertheless a love that thrives upon dishonesty and concealment of truth is not real love but obsession on the part of the lover and manipulation on the part of the beloved, an obsessive-compulsive relationship that ultimately damages both (whether in this world or the hereafter), and which in quintessence negates the nature of true love in both the subject and its object, eventually inverting both souls, so understand!
DISCLAIMER: This is not a slut-shaming post. It is using certain imagery and tropes to make a point about larger questions in the same fashion that the Bible does or Rumi does in his masnavī (like in the story of the mistress, the handmaiden, the donkey and the pumpkin, etc).
There is no power and no strength but in God the High, the Mighty!
