In Section 30 of Jami's Haft Awrang, the poet emphasizes the transformative power of a spiritual guide (Pir). Jami warns the seeker to avoid companions who disrupt their inner peace and worldly detachment. Instead, he describes the presence of a true Pir as an 'elixir' (اکسیر) that can transmute the 'copper' (مس) of the seeker's heart into gold. Achieving this spiritual alchemy requires the seeker to abandon their ego, remain faithfully at the guide's threshold, and continuously learn the profound lessons of spiritual poverty (Faqr) and divine love.
