In Poem 93 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Attar argues that our perception of external reality and others is a reflection of our own inner state. He describes the spiritual error of seeing multiplicity (seeing one as a hundred) as a form of vision far worse than physical double-vision (seeing one as two), emphasizing that true spiritual vision recognizes everything as coming from the self.

<p>چندین که روی و نیک یا بد بینی<br />
گر دیدهوری آن همه از خود بینی</p>
<p>احول که یکی دو دید اگر آن بد دید<br />
تو زو بتری زانک یکی صد بینی</p>

## English translation
As much as you see faces, whether good or bad,
If you possess vision, you see all of that from yourself.
The squint-eyed who saw one as two, if he saw badly,
You are worse than him, because you see one as a hundred.
