Excerpt
O Thou who art within and without the soul! Thou art not, and Thou art, all that I say. In Thy court, reason reels; it loses the thread that should guide it on Thy path. I see the whole universe clearly in Thee, and yet I do not see it at all in the world. All beings bear the impress of Thee, but visibly there is no impress of Thee.

✨ To meditate on today
According to Attar, God is both within and outside the soul: everything that exists bears His imprint, yet He Himself remains invisible, beyond what reason can grasp. Today, take a simple object in your hand, a stone, a leaf, a cup, look at it as an imprint left by God, and thank Him for it.
