Asrārnāma frequently mentions master (murād), oldster (pīr), senior (mihtar) and the like, and it talks about their advice to the novice. In this paper, we have examined the type of relation between master and disciple in Aṭṭār al-Nayshābūrī's Asrārnāma, showing that in some cases, the disciple is not a human person, but it nevertheless respects the master.
