(Jagbir, the verse sounds 'innocent enough'. How can you deduct from that verse, that it was left out 'deliberately'. i am curious about that statement. Are you saying that the 'Book of Enlightenment' was a part of the Qur'n originally, and got separated from it? Do you know who wrote it? i am really surprised that the Shri Lalita Sahasranama, comes from the Qur'n, did you say?! i thought it was of a 'Hindu Source'.)

Violet, even today it is next to impossible, due to the vastness of exoteric breadth and esoteric depth, to comprehend the Devi/Shekinah/ Holy Spirit/Ruh/Tao/Aykaa Mayee. There was absolutely no way illiterate, stone-worshipping and child-sacrificing desert-dwellers 1400 years ago could have been enlightened of His Spirit. Prophet Muhammad was spreading the revelations of God to these backward tribes and ridding them of their false beliefs and rituals. It would have served no purpose to try instilling the far more difficult aspect of His Ruh. So little was communicated to them.

The"Book of Enlightenment"Was never part of the Qu'ran and that is why Muslims never bothered about it. Try googling"Kitab Al Munir" and other than my explanation you will not find a single mention. i believe it has been erased/misinterpreted out of the collective Muslim memory.

The Kitab Al Munir or Shri Lalita Sahasranama is the only scripture that reveals the esoteric aspect of His Spirit. There is nothing else worth comparing. This Book of Enlightenment is matchless in revealing the Divine Mother within who by giving Self-realization leads the devotee towards God-realization. You cannot know God-Almighty/Brahman otherwise until and unless you know His indwelling feminine aspect.

The Devi/Shekinah/Holy Spirit/Ruh/Tao/Aykaa Mayee is the indwelling feminine aspect of Brahman - your Self. The Shri Lalita Sahasranama is the Book of Enlightenment whose 1000 names bestow unsurpassable supreme knowledge and guidance to know God Almighty.
