In Chapter 11, Poem 16 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet illustrates the epistemological limit of the human heart in its quest for the divine secret of love. The poem emphasizes that the ultimate truth remains hidden 'behind the veil' despite the seeker's intense yearning and pursuit. Furthermore, it highlights the futility of human contrivances and intellectual measures; all calculated efforts break down, leaving the spiritual task undone. This underscores the recurring Sufi theme that divine mysteries cannot be unraveled through self-directed effort or logic, but rather remain fundamentally inaccessible to the unguided intellect.
