In Chapter 27, Poem 37 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet highlights the paradox of the infinite spiritual journey. He asserts that gaining access to divine mysteries must be accompanied by the "foot of supplication" (humility and need). Because the path toward the divine has no end and cannot be traversed entirely through human effort, the wayfarer is ultimately compelled to turn back, recognizing their own limitations and the necessity of submitting to the infinite nature of the journey.
