Akla's written admonitions; her response was to try to talk some sense into their inexperienced minds.
The Corporate Leadership Council on Anga-Param had a constantly changing membership which, in its increasingly inept members, mirrored the decaying conditions planet-wide.

Velu sat with Zena in their home in the Unholy Lands. No one knew they'd been married by Akla. No one questioned their living together because no one but Akla knew where they lived. Their home was a simple cottage in the mountain fastness near Akla's residence. He often made the climb to visit them. They were waiting for him now.
"Zena, I feel Him coming."
"Yes, he's near."
"Will you tell Him?"
"I might."
"Isn't it important to let Him know?"
"I'll ask him."
"He isn't just a man, Zena."
"So you truly believe, Velu."
"So I truly believe..."
They both rose to open the door as Akla was rounding the bend in the mountain path. His smile greeted them. When they were seated in the cottage, Akla said:
"You are both so quiet. Shall I tell you why?"
They nodded.
"Zena needs to tell me that he finds no way to recognize my Station and I laud him for his honesty and his vast rational explorations to attempt to find a way to come to the same heart-felt conclusions you have reached, Velu."
Neither was surprised at Akla's precise verbalization of Zena's inner state. Velu said:
"My acceptance of Your spiritual Station and Zena's inability to find a similar rest from doubts might seem to compromise our relationship..."
"No. It makes your relationship a mirror of the conditions prevailing in the Worlds of this system. There are believers and non-believers. There are believers who don't know why they believe and non-believers who mistakenly think they know exactly why they don't believe. You, Velu, are a believer who knows exactly why she believes. And, you, Zena, are a non-believer who is honest enough to admit he doesn't quite know why he doesn't believe."
Zena looked to Velu, then Akla, and said:
"You are an unbelievable person, Akla. Yet I know you are sincere and I have no quarrel with the things you say or write. It's all extremely clear and blindingly true. I say you're unbelievable because I don't feel you speak for God. Velu does believe this. Yet I feel that we can work together to further your program for the unity of the Worlds."
"Yes, you will, Zena. You and Velu will make the Political Peace come about. People will see the power of unity displayed before their eyes by a man and woman, non-believer and believer, who are able to rise above differences and devote themselves to the most important task the Worlds have ever faced."
"May I ask you a question, Akla?"
"You mean the one that wonders why I, a person who claims to speak for God, could accept you, a person who can't find a way to account for a person like me?"
"Yes..."
"It is simple. God loves you and because of that love I can accept you as you are. You love Velu for the right reasons. You honor my Writings even though you can't see God in them. You are the blind mirror and I am happy that you keep Velu on her mental toes."
"Blind mirror...."
Velu hugged Zena and said: "This is so utterly delightful! You are Akla's blind mirror, you reflect His mission as a rational solution for the Worlds' troubles. You are my love and my challenge. You are the second most important being in my life..."
Zena kissed Velu on her forehead, turned to Akla, and said:
"I honor you and I'm glad my wife prefers you before me."
Akla said nothing but smiled and included both of them in His warm embrace.
