“Repentance is the signpost on the path, the leader of the kingdom, the key to the treasure, the intermediary that assists you to become united with God, the condition for being accepted to the divine presence, and the secret of all happiness.”
— Ansari in Sâd Maydân

Tawba توبة means “repentance”, but doesn’t here refer to contrition in the religious sense; rather, an awakening to one’s imperfections that marks the beginning of a spiritual journey. In psychological terms, it is the work on one’s shadow. The pale hues reflect the humility of this state.
