Intimations of the Beauty and Power of the Divine
by Camille Hamilton Adams Helminski
We offer these reflections on the “Ninety-Nine Names of God,” traditional to Islam and the Quranic revelation, to support the increased opening of our awareness to all the Generosity and Loving-kindness of the Divine Bestowal. The Divine is so generous with the qualities of Being that in any moment they may be perceived in new ways, in varied intermingled resonances, with different hues, to touch our hearts and minds and souls and bodies, and awaken us in awe. Intimations of the Names, as they arrived within this heart, are included here in twos or threes or more, in clusters or constellations of Names, that we, dear reader, might be encouraged to look and witness again the dancing and singing of all the Names, even beyond the Ninety-Nine here expressed, in all the realms of our existence.
