In Chapter 29, Poem 42 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet expresses an intense, ecstatic desire to sacrifice his very existence for the Divine Beloved. The imagery of needing a 'thousand souls' to sacrifice while 'dancing' before the Beloved's face illustrates the profound spiritual intoxication and absolute surrender inherent in the mystical path. It highlights a state where physical existence and individual identity are gladly forfeited for the sake of divine proximity and overwhelming love.
