Omar Khayyam in 900 years ago offered this idea about Creation: 

 این بحرِ وجود آمده بیرون ز نهفت

کس نیست که این گوهرِ تحقیق بِسُفْت؛

هرکس سخنی از سَرِ سودا گفته‌است،

زان روی که هست، کس نمی‌داند گفت

 This rubai (quatrain) from Omar Khayyam provides an insightful perspective on the limitations of human knowledge and understanding when grappling with profound existential questions. Here is my analysis:

• Khayyam uses the metaphor of an ocean to represent the vastness and obscurity of the origins of our existence and reality. He suggests these origins are shrouded in mystery.
• The "jewel of reality" seems to imply an ultimate truth or enlightened understanding that so far no one has been able to fully uncover or "pierce".
• Each person can only interpret things through their own incomplete, subjective lens ("according to his humour").
• Given the inherent limitations of the human mind and perspective, no one is able to definitively "define the face of things" - that is, comprehend the true essence and nature of existence.
• There is a humility and scepticism towards human knowledge and understanding in the face of existential questions about origins and reality.
• Overall, Khayyam appears to be arguing against dogmatic claims of revealed truth, and advocating for epistemological humility regarding life's greatest mysteries that have historically eluded complete understanding through reason and the senses. The wise position is to accept the unclear nature of our origins and reality.

In summary, this rubai points to the theory that due to constraints on human faculties, there are limits on our capacity to fully know and define the ultimate truths of existence. It advocates intellectual humility in the face of life's biggest questions.
