In Your Name All Eyes see what they see

Masnavi Rumi, Leiden manuscript
The tale of the Jewish king
http://www.untiredwithloving.org/masnavi_vol1_324_335.html  

By a request from the Cleveland Rumi Circle, the introduction of the
Masnavi tale of the Jewish king (vol. 1, v. 325-335) was researched
based upon the seminal work of the late Dr. Frouzanfar, may Allah rest
his soul in peace and ease his journey. 

Rumi eloquently narrates the human condition of Diplopia, where the
person sees duplicates of one object i.e. we see many different
prophets and religions because we suffer from spiritual Diplopia. And
he diagnoses this illness of the Nafs (Self) and recommends a cure:
Avoiding anger and false-love.
