For some information about the Sufi mystic, poet and martyr Mansur al Hallaj, see this post.
Your spirit is mingled with mine
as wine is mixed with water;
whatever touches you touches me.
In all the stations of the soul you are I.
Translation Bernard Lewis

Thank you, Pir Nawab for sharing this additional glimmer of Hallaj’s account of his experience. It seems only a small step from this point to where he spoke the variation that sealed his fate as a martyr.
Thank you also for the link you shared to the beautiful from 2017 of Hallaj’s writing.
Much joy and appreciation for your guidance.
Thank you for your deep appreciation, dear Howard. The words of the truly inspired inspire us because the same Truth lives in all.
