Transcending Intellect and Annihilation in Love in Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (Poem 70)
In Poem 70 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the profound effects of mystical love, emphasizing the annihilation (fana) of the ego and the transcendence of human intellect. By becoming 'naught' in the realm of love, the seeker rises above ordinary discernment and worldly attachments, leaving behind the material universe to inhabit a new, elevated spiritual reality.
