Abstract

The present paper is a research conducted on two verses of Hafiz on the basis of Jungian school of psychoanalysis. Jung was the first one to reveal the hidden universal aspect of the man, "the Collective Unconscious", indicating how this nature of man influence his thoughts and deeds. This paper is intended to show how the collective unconscious, as well as the well know Anima and animus and Mandala, the ancient patterns of creation, are manifested in the complicated mysterious language of Hafiz. In these verses, Anima is the ethereal beloved one, and in order for the poet to understand the true nature of existence, he will have no way but to unite with his beloved one in the most magical manner.
