In Chapter 12, Poem 32 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet reflects on the deceptive nature of spiritual pride and the illusion of personal achievement. He realizes that what he believed to be spiritual progress was merely vanity ('pride and multiplicity'). The striking imagery stating that 'every single hair of mine was an idol and a zunnar' illustrates how deeply ingrained the ego is. It suggests that even the most minute aspects of selfhood can become barriers to realizing divine unity, acting as objects of false worship (idols) or symbols of spiritual infidelity (zunnar).
