Background
A description of the experience
Garden of Mystery – The Gulsham-i raz of Mahmud Shabistari
Know that the world from end to end is a mirror
In each atom blaze one hundred shining suns
If you cleave the heart of a drop of water
a hundred pure oceans will flow from it
Each speck of dust, carefully examined
reveals thousands of humans teeming within
A gnat's legs are like those of an elephant
A drop of water suggest the great River Nile
From the core of a seed springs a hundred harvests
A whole world comes out of a seed of grass
Spirit dwells in a mosquito's wing
Heaven's sphere is the point of its eye
