The Paradox of Divine Manifestation and Multiplicity in Jami's Haft Awrang (Section 5)
In Section 5 of Jami's Haft Awrang, the poet explores the profound paradoxes of the Divine essence. The supplication describes God as simultaneously manifest (ظهور) and hidden (بطون), and as a singular Unity (احدی/واحدی) that paradoxically serves as the origin of all multiplicity (مرجع اعداد) and the gathering point of opposites (مجمع اضداد). This thematic focus highlights the transcendent and all-encompassing nature of God, who remains perfectly singular while encompassing the diverse and seemingly contradictory phenomena of the created world.
