In Section 21 of the Mosibat Nameh, Farid al-Din Attar provides poetic definitions for a series of fundamental Sufi spiritual attributes and stations. Through a structured sequence of rhetorical questions ('What is...?') and paradoxical answers, Attar defines concepts such as love (eshq), thought (fekr), spiritual taste (dhawq), sobriety (sahw), effacement (mahv), and ecstasy (vajd). For example, he characterizes love as the capacity to 'make a sea out of a drop' and to sacrifice conventional intellect. These definitions collectively emphasize the transformative nature of the spiritual path, illustrating that attaining these states requires transcending ordinary reason, selfhood, and material constraints.
