In Poem 36 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Attar explores the profound limitations of human gnosis (ma'rifat) in comprehending the Divine. The verses express that on the spiritual path, what humans typically consider to be spiritual knowledge is ultimately revealed as an error or illusion. True realization of the Divine transcends worldly understanding and concepts, completely overturning the seeker's previous assumptions about knowing God and rendering human intellect inadequate.
