In Poem 78 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Attar explores the nature of Sufi devotion and the boundless accessibility of the divine path:

• Exclusive Devotion: Adopting the 'religion of love' requires complete detachment from anything other than the Beloved, symbolized by keeping one's hands short from all else.
• Boundless Spiritual Gateways: Although obstacles may arise and block a specific path of love, the lover is never truly barred. The spiritual universe offers infinite alternatives, providing 'a thousand gateways' at every step, illustrating the omnipresence of divine grace and the resilience of the seeker.
