عدم آیینهٔ هستی است مطلق
کز او پیداست عکس تابش حق
Non-being is the mirror of absolute being; in it appears the reflection of the Real's shining.
Gulshan-i Rāz, section 8. Text as given on Ganjoor (ganjoor.net), not yet checked against a printed edition.
- Stand before a mirror in a completely dark room. Do you see nothing, or do you see black?
- Can nothing show anything?
- If the world is the reflection, who is standing in front of the mirror?
Pick one. That is the first session.
