The Perfumer of Souls: The Hidden Life of Attar of Nishapur and the Seven Valleys of the Soul - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
In twelfth-century Persia, in a city that smelled of roses, a pharmacist named Farid al-Din Attar served five hundred patients a day, wrote thirty thousand couplets of poetry, and mapped the interior life with a precision that nine centuries have not diminished.
He called the hollow in your chest the first valley. He had a name for it. He had a map of where it leads.
The Perfumer of Souls is the story of Attar's life — his pharmacy, his road, his poems, and his death — and of the teaching embedded in that life: that the seeking, the burning, the bewilderment, and the loss are not problems to be solved. They are valleys to be crossed. Seven of them, each one transforming what you carry into something lighter and more essential, until you arrive at the mirror at the mountain's summit and find there the face that has been waiting.
This is the book about the man who inspired Rumi. The teacher who handed a young Rumi a book on a road outside Nishapur and said: here comes an ocean. The pharmacist who understood that attending to the body and attending to the soul were the same act, performed with the same quality of attention.
In these pages, you will find:
- The seven valleys of the soul — mapped for modern readers through the lens of Attar's own life
- The dervish who died on Attar's pharmacy floor and opened everything
- The Conference of the Birds — its thirty birds, its Simurgh, its pun that contains the entire teaching
- What it means to love something enough to follow the love all the way to the mountain
- A reading of the hollow in your chest as a door, not a wound
The pharmacist's door is open. Come in.
