Teachings
Sultan Sahak revealed several principles that constitute the core belief of the Ahl-e Haqq mystical sect:
- The four pillars of the fourth stage (the stage of the Truth or Haqqiqat): purity (pāki), rectitude (rāsti), self-effacement (nisti), and self-abnegation (redā).
- The partial or total manifestation of the divine essence in human form.
- The guidance from the arch-angels of Gabriel for all those who want to reach the truth
- The seven arch-angels, who were the first creations of the highest rank and who perform missions to guide humanity.
- The divine hierarchy, which constitutes the saviours, who manifest themselves on earth and other planes
- The principle of ascending successive lives for the process of perfection

Famous quotes containing the word teachings:
“... there are no chains so galling as the chains of ignorance—no fetters so binding as those that bind the soul, and exclude it from the vast field of useful and scientific knowledge. O, had I received the advantages of early education, my ideas would, ere now, have expanded far and wide; but, alas! I possess nothing but moral capability—no teachings but the teachings of the Holy Spirit.”
—Maria Stewart (1803–1879)
“We denote this primary wisdom as Intuition, whilst all later teachings are tuitions.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
