In Chapter 8, Poem 34 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet underscores the importance of self-effacement (fana) and the complete relinquishment of personal agency in the spiritual path. By advising the seeker to "be nothing," "seek silence," and "do nothing," Attar highlights that the ego's persistent questioning of its own actions (asking "What am I going to do?") is an illusion. True spiritual realization requires abandoning the illusion of selfhood, speech, and independent action, embracing absolute nothingness instead.
