THE
Divine Image
William Blake
wrote a very lovely poem titled "The Divine Image." In
this poem, Blake is lecturing us and teaching us a lesson about how to emulate
God's qualities of mercy, pity, peace, and love. Because the
heart of someone who possesses these qualities is where Allah resides. And in
reality, God endowed humans with these qualities. This poem has a message or a
lesson. Humans ought to be loving, peaceful, and pitiful.
The poem's very
first lines list attributes of God, including mercy,
pity, peace, and love. In times of difficulty, people pray to God, who
possesses the qualities of mercy, pity, peace, and love. God is kind and helps
people in overcoming their difficulties.
God is a loving creator. By getting them into problems, he puts people
to the test. People turn to God and pray to Him for help in their times of
difficulty, hardship, or sadness in order to find relief from their wretched
circumstances. And he helps them out of their issues when they pray to him. Then,
humans express their thanks or gratitude to Him for His kindness.
God is
merciful, sympathetic, peaceful, and full of love, and He endowed humans with
these qualities. God infused the human heart with mercy when He
created it. A newborn's face is pitiful when he is born. The
divine image is reflected in the human body as mercy, pity,
peace, and love. Humanity is dressed in peace. We cover or are protected by our
"dress." People ought to foster peacefulness in their surroundings.
Humans are the embodiments of pity, mercy, peace, and love. Humans are a product
of God's creation in his glorious form. Human bodies can experience love.
Where mercy, pity, peace, and love dwell,
Allah also dwells. These characteristics are present at birth in humans.
But only few people continue to exhibit these traits. Most people start to
resemble devilish pictures. The clearest illustration of this is "A
Divine Image," a poem by Blake. When ‘’Songs of Innocence’’
are replaced by the ‘’Songs of Experience’’, the same man who is
innocence by birth becomes Satan and preaches jealousy, terror,
hypocrisy, and cruelty because of these four deadly sins.
