In Poem 51 of Chapter 29 in Mokhtar Nameh, Attar of Nishapur explores the themes of continuous divine presence and the nature of spiritual sorrow. The speaker experiences an ever-increasing, profound sorrow within a "blood-filled heart," which originates from the Divine. However, this sorrow does not signify true separation. The speaker asserts a perpetual, unbroken connection with the Beloved, claiming never to be absent for even a single breath. The poem resolves the paradox of feeling sorrow while being intimately connected by redefining absence: any aspect of existence that is "absent" from the Divine is declared to be external to the speaker's true self. Thus, the authentic self remains in constant union with the Divine, while separation is relegated to the external, superficial aspects of being.
