The Invaluable Spiritual Endeavor and Worthiness in Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (Chapter 20, Poem 7)
In Chapter 20, Poem 7 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the immense value of the spiritual endeavor on the mystic path. He emphasizes that this pursuit is worth more than 'a hundred hidden worlds' but is exclusively revealed to those who are inherently worthy of it. Furthermore, Attar asserts that this profound spiritual realization cannot be attained merely through formal training or instruction; rather, its true transformative worth—equated to 'a hundred souls'—is realized only when it genuinely touches and awakens the heart.
