In this poem from Chapter 23 of Mokhtar Nameh, Attar uses the metaphor of the 'six-sided trap of the face of the earth' (ششدرهٔ روی زمین) to describe the material world. The 'six sides' refer to the six spatial directions (up, down, front, back, right, left), representing the physical constraints and confinement of earthly existence. The poem reflects on the profound ordeal and inevitability of spiritual 'falling' when trapped in this worldly ambush, warning the heart that any worldly elevation or rising within this trap is ultimately the lowest fall.
