The Story of Bozorgmehr - Prelude on the Truth of Dreams
Let no one dismiss the power of dreams as mere vanity, for true visions carry a spark of prophetic grace. When the luminous soul of the King of the World beholds a dream, the heavens align—the stars, the moon, and the high spheres confer to scatter hidden truths along the path of mortal men. Enlightened souls, unburdened by the haze of the sensory world, perceive upcoming events as clearly as fire blazing across the surface of still waters. Thus does a royal dream serve as a harbinger of grand turnings of destiny and the awakening of supreme wisdom in the realm.
