Praise be to God Who hath made being to come forth from nothingness; graven upon the tablet of man a measure of the mysteries of His eternity...
abstract His most important mystical composition, patterned in part after Faríd’u’d-Dín ‘Aṭṭár’s Manṭiqu’l-Ṭayr (‘The Conference of the Birds’), describing seven stages in the path of the spiritual wayfarers—‘search’, ‘love’, ‘knowledge’, ‘unity’, ‘contentment’, ‘wonderment’, and ‘true poverty and absolute nothingness’—and revealing that the source of conflict upon earth can be traced to the wayfarers’ lack of awareness of the relative truths to be found within each of these stages.
