Abstract: Rasaeel Farsi, by the use of an especial form of Persian literature which was written by Khawjeh Abdolah Ansari, is accounted as one of the significant literary works that must be studied in depth for finding its hidden implications for its apparent features do not show its accurate meanings; however, they are along with each other. So what was mentioned as the attitudes of this poet are being discovered through these hidden layers which are the reflected in this literary language. This work was organized into 18 chapters (in 149 pages) as an organized and a simple prose which consists of Ayats, Holy Verses, Narrations, Secrets, Hadiths, etc. as well as the other rhetorical devices. Therefore, the present paper aimed to study the implications and contents of this work by considering these two concepts "love and kindness" as the spiritual and divine points, the "place of a perfected human" and his existence as the final divine aim of creation. In addition, a comparative study with the other Gnostic works will be considered in this paper. Therefore, the results of this paper are indicative of the relationship of these implications with the conclusions of the other Gnostic works toward the perfection of love, knowledge and the place of human as the Spirit of the World (Great Human).
