I persevered and strove in search of the soul, and found at last that I myself was the cover over my own soul.

Since then, I have seen all souls as my soul, and realized my soul as the soul of all. And what bewilderment it was when I realized that I alone was, if there were anyone, that I am whatever and whoever exists, and that I shall be whoever there will be in the future. ↗
