I–II 396.2 - **Language:** English ### [396.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.396.2) From the sun’s bounteous entry and blissful enthronement the physical and spiritual world received special prosperity, and things outward harmonized with things inward. The youth of wisdom and wakefulness received discipline, and the year Mihr, the 7th of the Ilahi era began. The hand of Divine power withdrew the veil from fortune’s countenance. The hope of the right-seeing, right-acting members of creation’s workshop is that the most high God will make the Shahinshah’s holy personality, prosperous outwardly and inwardly for a length of time and will year by year grant him a fund of increased life and fortune so that the world may remain protected from the animosities and conflicts of a variety of rulers, and may be illuminated by the justice and equity of this unique one of horizons who is worthy of universal empire. So may the true arrangement of the links in the chain of things human and Divine be revealed, and the great religion, which consists in binding the multitudes of the inhabited world on the thread of unity, be advanced! May dominions grow and knowledge increase, concord be established, sincerity become current, the dust-stained ones of the plains of heedlessness who are throughout the world under an obscuring veil come forth into the fields of discrimination, so that aptitude have an open market and the seekers after things pure and genuine receive into their hands the coin of their desire! - [Previous: 396.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.396.1) - [Next: 396.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.396.3) - [Up: 396](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.396) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.396.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.akbar.akbarnama~en-beveridge.396.2) · Pramāṇa
