Essence

Humility

So many mirrors scattered here & there.
A mirror is what Beauty busies itself with.
Since not-being is the mirror of Being.
Blessed people choose becoming not-being.
Being gets displayed in that not-being.
Liberality of wealthy gets mirrored through poor.
Hungered is the clear mirror of bread.
The tinder is the mirror of the flint & steel.
A saint is the mirror of the autocratic fool.
Not-being is a clear filtered essence,
wherein all these beings are infused.
Defects are the mirrors of attributes of Beauty.
The base is the mirror of the High & Glorious one.
Whoso recognizes and confesses his defects,
Is hastening in the way that leads to perfection.
Thus a being becomes perfect & not-being in humility
