The quotations of
Iranian poet
1207–1273
8 quotes, most often on God.
Reason is like an officer when the King appears; The officer then loses his power and hides himself. Reason is the shadow cast by God; God is the sun.
If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
If you wish to shine like day, burn up the night of self-existence. Dissolve in the Being who is everything.
God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites, so that you will have two wings to fly, not one.
