73 HADRAT MIRZA GHULAM AHMAD AS comes a consequence of the good deeds of man; when he prayers with humility his prayer is accepted, when he works hard to seed his tilth, divine mercy causes it to grow till a large stock of grain is produced from it.

Thus, when it is established that, for the purpose of our development and perfection, two springs of two mercies have been made to flow by the Munificent and All-Powerful and these are two of His attributes which, for the purpose of irrigating the tree of our existence, were manifested in two forms, we should observe how these two springs, having been reflected in the Arabic language, are named.
