In Chapter 6, Poem 71 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Farid al-Din al-Attar explores the ultimate stage of spiritual annihilation (fana). The poem describes a state of multiple spiritual deaths, culminating in dying to the cosmic soul—the very animating principle that gives life to the created world. By dying to this universal soul, the mystic transcends all created existence, both manifest and hidden, to achieve complete dissolution in the absolute Divine Essence.
