page 305 note 1 Cf. the Ṣūfī mystic Junayd, “Perishability is ended and subsistence is made perfect. Weariness and care cease, the elements perish, and there remains what will not cease, as time that is timeless ceases not.” This is the “eternal present” of the Upaniṣads, the perfect freedom of attainment.
