In Chapter 32, Poem 6 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet utilizes the classic Sufi motif of the moth (پروانه) and the candle (شمع) to depict the consuming, transformative nature of divine love. The lover learns impatience and ultimate self-sacrifice from the fire of love, leading to a state of spiritual annihilation where the self is willingly consumed by the beloved's passion.
