30 BIRDS (Simorgh)

Only one bird in a hundred thousand may reach the goal, to see the Simorgh (Phoenix).
Some lose focus; some ignore the lessons of their journey, some die along the way.
Only thirty birds pass through the seven valleys of mystic knowledge, and together, they become the Simorgh.

A spiritual masterpiece
a symbolic journey of birds seeking the Simorgh (which represents Truth / God / the Perfect Self).

Farid ud-Din Attar of Nishapur
