Background
A description of the experience
Garden of Mystery – The Gulsham-i raz of Mahmud Shabistari
The elements of water, air, fire and earth
have found their places beneath the firmament
Each acts in its own centre of influence
unable to step this way or that by an atom's span
The four of them are opposed in nature and scope
yet has anyone seen how they join?
