Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
Quoted in Idries Shah's Perfumed Scorpion
A description of the experience
'Qaume mutaffakar and dar mazhab wa din
Jama'e mutahayyarand dar shakk wa yaqin
Nagah manadi bar ayad zi kamin:
Ki'eay be-khabaran - rah na an ast na in!'
'People are thinking about creed and belief
All confused between doubt and certainty.
Suddenly a call comes from the Beyond:
"O uninformed ones: the road is neither this nor that!"
