Sufi poet, Hakim Sanai, best known for The Walled Garden of Truth, is revered as one of the 3 great Sufi teachers, along with Attar and Rumi. He says a lot in these few choice words:
Belief brings me close to You
but only to the door.
It is only by disappearing into
Your mystery
that I will come in.
See What Turkish Sufi poet Yunus Emre realized — everything was found within his cosmic body and Yunus Emre says Wisdom comes from Knowing Oneself — a Singularity that contains the Whole.

disappearing into Your mystery sounds like the small self losing its boundaries to the Big Self
