In Chapter 17, Poem 3 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet outlines a spiritual method centered on detachment and quiet endurance. The seeker is instructed to withdraw from worldly society ('withdraw from the people of the world') as a necessary remedy for the soul. This physical isolation is paired with a profound internal discipline of silence: enduring inner suffering ('a heart full of blood') without complaint, keeping the lips sealed, and adopting the stance of a detached, silent observer. This quatrain highlights the Sufi emphasis on introspection, enduring spiritual trials privately, and disconnecting from external worldly distractions.
