Why do you go to the forest in search of God? He lives in all and is yet ever distinct; He abides with you, too, as a fragrance dwells in a flower, and reflection in a mirror; so does God dwell inside everything; seek Him, therefore, in your heart.

“Why do you go to the forest in search of God?
He lives in all and is yet ever distinct;
He abides with you, too,
as a fragrance dwells in a flower,
and reflection in a mirror;
so does God dwell inside everything;
seek Him, therefore, in your heart.”
