The primary profession of the Islamic faith *La ilaha ill'Allah*
- No divinity by *The* divinity, no God but *The* God - taken
esoterically, is a suggestion that there is no reality but The
Reality; i.e., nothing in manifest or non-manifest existence but
the Divine Itselfness, and all subsequent individuation therefore
an itemized declension, or, to cut to the chase, there was only
One Unique Being, period, for Whom everything apparently other than
He is His particularized self-expression, which does not constitute
an actual Otherness.
