The reflection of the mythical effects of Vispōbish tree in Mowlavi's thought about wisdom

In this article with a descriptive and analytical method have been examined and by comparing the similarities of the story of sending someone to India to find a tree that drives away death and old age with Vispōbish tree and The actions of Simorgh in the national epic, examples of the connection of Mowlavi's thought with mythological intellectual contexts have been shown. What was obtained from this study is that although the story of sending someone to India to find a special and healing plant or tree was told before Masnavi in other works, especially Shahnameh, Kelileh and Demneh, the characteristics that Mowlavi described for the tree The healer recounts the nature and abilities of wisdom, it is reminiscent of the story and character of Simorgh, which is located on top of a tree in the Farakhkard Sea. Just as that particular tree in the myth is a healer of pain and warding off death, the tree that is spoken of in Mowlavi's speech is a warding off of lack of knowledge and ignorance, which are another form of death. Just as the king's envoy goes to India to find a tree, the mythical tree is also in India. In Mowlavi's speech, the Mohit Sea can be a reflection of the mythical Farakhkard Sea, and in addition, Mowlavi has also given characteristics of the mythical Simorgh to Gebraiel in his mystical speech.
