Maulana Jelaluddin Rumi said:
I tried to find Him on the Christian cross, He was not there;
I went to the Temple of the Hindus and to the old pagodas,
but I could not find a trace of Him anywhere.
I searched on the mountains and in the valleys but neither in the
heights nor in the depths was I able to find Him.
I went to the Kabbah in Makkah, but He was not there either.
I questioned the scholars and philosophers but He was beyond their understanding.
I then looked into my heart and it was there where He dwelled that
I saw Him; He was no where else to be found."
