Reading The Conference of the Birds | Alexandria
Read The Conference of the Birds by Farid ud-din Attar. Pursuing enlightenment, thirty birds embark on a mystical quest only to discover they themselves are the divine—an 800-year-old Sufi allegory that eerily foreshadows modern psychology's insights about self-actualization. Through their journey, Attar reveals how the search for meaning paradoxically leads back to our own nature.
