Symbolism of Cave in the Works of Mowlana Jalal-al Din Balkhi

A psychological study of Mowlana Jalal-al Din Balkhiʹs Ghazals (Odes) reveals the fact that some of these odes indicate the poetʹs great understanding of Conscious- and unconsciousness. Mowlanaʹs "Superego" gains life upon his visit with Shams-e Tabrizi. This visit is the ignition for a series of poetic experiences. Using the psychological approach and the concept of "supergo", in the present article an attempt is made to show the symbol of cave in the works of Mowlana Jalal-al Din Balkhi, Persian poet and mystic.
