A timeless mystical poem declares, "Come back, come back, whoever you are... this court is not a court of despair." This radical invitation is open to everyone—infidels, idol-worshippers, and sinners who have broken their repentance a hundred times. But there is one exception. This episode of RESTART explains who is excluded from this grace: the knowing, conscious enemies of the Perfect Human. We explore why the mystics offer a path of return to all but those who actively fight against the living truth of their era.
The core of this understanding lies in Attar's "Valley of Unity," a state of consciousness where all separation collapses. To illustrate this profound reality, we use Rumi's powerful parable of the "two jugs." A disciple sees two distinct realities, but the master knows there is only one. The spiritual journey requires metaphorically "breaking" the second jug—the illusion of duality—to perceive the single, unified truth that remains. This is the valley that invalidates all religious clergy who operate in a world of separation and proves that the only path is to realize the Oneness that exists beyond all books, rituals, and dogma.
