Strive to discover the mystery - Farīd ud-Dīn ʿAṭṭār

Strive to discover the mystery before life is taken from you.
If while living you fail to find yourself, to know yourself,
how will you be able to understand
the secret of your existence when you die?

Farīd ud-Dīn ʿAṭṭār (full name: Abū Ḥamīd bin Abū Bakr Ibrāhīm)  (c. 1145–c. 1221) Persia (ancient Iran)
