Beyond Duality.
There is no reality but the Real.
Since "I-ness" is a reality, man's I-ness is unreal.
In truth " There is no I but I".
" But here it is no longer man's "I," it is God's "I."

As long as man's
ego and selfhood subsists,
he continues to practice that there are two real existents, two "I's."

With God, two I's cannot find room.
You say "I" and He says "I."
Either you die before Him,
or let Him die before you;
then duality will not remain.

Since He is the Living God, the Undying,
you die,
so that He may manifest Himself to you
and duality may vanish.

This I will only be unveiled after annihilation.
Do not hurry, first become nonexistent!

When you have set in the west,
then your light will rise from the east.

When Hallaj's love for God reached its utmost limit, He said, "I am God,"

(Mansoor Al Hallaj was a Sufi saint, who was martyred almost 1,100 years ago, on March 26, 922, allegedly for his ecstatic utterance
" An al haq" I am God.)

that is, "I have been annihilated; God remains, nothing else."

His spirit became joyful
through the I-less I;
it fled from the " I " of the world.

When annihilation adorns a man,
he becomes shadowless, like Muhammad.

Hallaj had been annihilated, So those were the words of God.

Like the red gold of the minethat has gained honor through the color and nature of the fire, it exults without tongue:
"I am the fire"
"I am the fire"
If you are doubtful or suspicious,
test me! Touch me with your hand! . . ."

Light appears as fire and fire as light
were this not so,
why is this world
the "Abode of Delusion"?

If you have an eye, open it and look!
After no God,
why, what else remains?
