The Concept of Hoosh (intelligence) in "Neynameh

According to the commentaries on Massnavi, especially Naynameh no commentator has ever paid attention to the multiple meanings of Hoosh which goes beyond its literal meaning. In addition to its literal meaning which deals with smartness and intelligence, it can refer to mortality. The researcher believes that according to the text of Naynameh, between its two different meanings, the concept of Hoosh is more the associated with mortality. Hoosh meaning death indicates the mystical idiom of Fana and this is completely applicable to the contextual implication of Naynameh. To provide some evidence the researcher refers the readers to some relevant parts of Naynameh in this study.
