THE UNIVERSE IN MIRROR
Ahmed Baki
(translation in progress)
 Bad
things to good, Allah modifies
Think not He does otherwise
Always watched on by the wise–
What Allah will ordain, let us see
Whatever He does, well does He.
In Allah you should put your trust
Surrender yourself, find rest at lastt
With everything He does, be patient and pleased
What Allah will ordain, let us see
Whatever He does, well does He.
–Ibrahim Hakki Erzurumî
If you could get rid
of yourself just once,
The secret of secrets
Would open to you.
The face of the unknown,
Hidden beyond the universe
Would appear on the
Mirror of your perception.
–Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi
Far before the invention of hologram and
the Quantum Physics, numerous perceivers of reality known
as Sufi thinkers had already glimpsed the nonlocal organization
of the universe and had shared their experiences in their
own unique ways of expressing their insight through saying
“the universe is a MIRROR that ALLAH observes His own beauty
at”..
Have you ever thought about how much space
and weight your body occupy in space behind a silvered glass
of mirror when you look at it?
What if you realized that your body and everything you see
and know are just illusions that your consciousness observes
similarly but in a nonlocal mirror?
