In Chapter 15, Poem 14 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the theme of existential uselessness combined with helplessness before the forces of destiny. The speaker describes being bewildered by the 'restless celestial sphere' and helpless before the times, framing human existence as subject to cosmic forces beyond personal control. This profound sense of lacking agency leads to a fundamental questioning of purpose: since the speaker feels they have never been of practical use for any task, they question why they were brought into the world at all. This highlights a prominent philosophical and mystical theme in Attar's poetry, emphasizing human insignificance and the search for meaning in the grand cosmic order.
