" Guidance is that man is guided to bewilderment (hayra). He knows that the business is
bewilderment. Bewilderment is being unsettled and movement. Movement is life. There is no
non-movement nor death. There is existence and not non-existence. It is the same with the
water which gives life to the earth. Its movement is His word, "so it quivers" and conceives,
"and swells" with pregnancy, "and sprouts plants in beautiful pairs." (7) It only gives birth to
what resembles it, i.e. has a nature like it. It has being linked in pairs (zawjiya) which is the
state of being doubled by what is born from it and what appears from it. "
