Happy Christmas and New Year one and all
Know the world is a mirror from head to foot. In every atom are a hundred blazing suns. If you cleave the heart of one drop of water, a hundred pure oceans emerge from it. If you examine closely each grain of sand, a thousand atoms may be seen in it. In its members a gnat is like an elephant. In its qualities a drop of rain is like the nile. The heart of a barley-corn equals a hundred harvests A world dwells in the heart of a millet seed. In the wing of a gnat is the ocean of life.
Mahmud Shabistari 13th century, Gulshan-I-Raz
