All numbers are binary, so the mysticism is different. All about relations of zeros and ones. About the difference between zero and one. In a sense, one stands for all other non-zero numbers, for something instead of nothing.
Image of a zero next to a one. The one spins, faster and faster, representing all the possibilities of something. The radius of the one overlaps or just touches the zero, making a lop-sided figure eight. Then the one spins so fast that nothing of it can be seen by the circumference of its rotational area. It forms another zero. At the same moment, the zero begans to show a blurring, and finally a it slows enough until it's clear that it too is a one, until it stops spinning altogether, and the initial zero and one are reversed.
"This cabala must work the same as the other. All truth is number, all truth is one," he cried.
"Is it?" she rasped. "All truth is numbers, and not all numbers are one."
What is truth zero?

hmmm
Indeed! Quite creative.
