"I saw my Lord with the eye of my heart. He said, "Who are you?" I said, "I am You." You are He Who fills all place But place does not know where You are. In my subsistence is my annihilation; In my annihilation, I remain You."
— Mansur Al-Hallaj

I saw my Lord with the Eye of my heart, And I said: Truly there is no doubt that it is You. It is You that I see in everything; And I do not see You through anything (but You). — As quoted in "Husayn ibn Mansur al-Hallaj" at Sidi Muhammad Press
