Human being has always wanted to know where he has come from and where he is heading to since he came to know himself. 17le idea of passing through this world like the changing of days and nights or seasons has cast a dark shadow on his heart and soul. 17lis has left him neither a way to stay nor a way to escape.
To gnostic poets, the eternal life means human perfection and development from soil to the heavens. 17lis is why Sanaei, and later on Mawlavi, has got lovingly engaged in describing the eternal resting place considering the day of resurrection as the de vine meeting, the heaven as the time of joinig the sweetheart, and the hell as the departure from Him.
