The profoundly beautiful poem was written by Ibn Arabi (1165 - 1240 AD). In translation by Michael Sells the poem reads: Marvel a garden among the flames. My heart has become receptive of every form. It is a meadow for gazelles, a monastary for [Christian] monks, An abode of idols, the Ka'aba of the pilgrim, The tables of the Torah, the Qur'an. My religion is love--wherever its camels turn. Love is my belief, my faith.

~Ibn Arabi's Chart of Creation~ "draws on the correspondences between twenty-eight if the Divine Names and the twenty-eight stations of the moon, each of which corresponds to a letter of the Arabic alphabet. Each letter is a symbol of a particular manifestation, and the entire alphabet sets out the order in which the world was created. All this revolves within the zodiac, by which the sun's motion is measured." (Laleh Bakhtiar)

Ibn Arabi Quote: There was a time, when I blamed my companion if his religion did not resemble mine. Now, however, my heart accepts every form....Love alone is my religion.
