Flowing waters and blowing winds

God...showed me a hundred thousand many coloured flowers. Then He open up the parts of the flowers and showed me a hundred thousand green herbs and flowing waters and blowing winds, and He opened up the winds and showed me a hundred thousand freshnesses.
Baha Walad, quoted in Sufism: A Short Introduction by William Chittick (2000)
