Chapter 7 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (On the Soul, Spirit, and Body)

Chapter 7 of Farid al-Din Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (مختارنامه) is titled 'On the Soul, Spirit, and Body' (در صفت روح و جان و صفت تن). In this chapter, Attar's quatrains contrast the fleeting, meager nature of physical existence with the eternal reality, existential fear, and ultimate non-existence (fana) of the soul.
