Pure Being is too bright to behold, yet it can be seen reflected in the mirror of this world
Every particle of the world is a mirror

In an insect's wing is an ocean of life.
A heaven is concealed in the pupil of an eye.
The core in the center of the heart is small,
yet the lord of both worlds will enter there."

Make it ready to be the dwelling of the Beloved.

In you, void of yourself, God will display His beauty.
