Mystical literature in the Safavid era served as a platform for the reflection of the collective unconscious and a reaction to the prevalent atmosphere of hypocritical asceticism. Drawing upon the heritage of ancient Iran and Illuminationist philosophy (Hikmat al-Ishraq), Razi al-Din Artimani selected the two archetypes of "Light" and "Intoxication" to articulate his mystical experiences. The primary objective of this research is to elucidate the manner of reflection, juxtaposition, and function of these two archetypes within the poet's mental and linguistic structure. With what frequency and quality are the archetypes of "Light" and "Intoxication" reflected in Artimani's Divan, and what relationship exists between these two symbols within his intellectual system? This study was conducted using a descriptive-analytical method with a "quantitative content analysis" approach. The statistical population comprises the entire Divan of Razi al-Din Artimani (including the Saqinama, Ghazals, etc.), from which keywords were extracted via coding techniques and subjected to statistical analysis. The findings indicate that the frequency of vocabulary within the semantic field of "Intoxication" (540 instances) is more than double that of the "Light" field (244 instances). This ratio (2.2 to 1) suggests that in Artimani's Rindana (libertine) theology, "Intoxication"—acting as the "Path" (Tariqa) and a tool for the deconstruction of the "False Self" and hypocrisy—serves as a necessary prerequisite for attaining "Light," which represents the "Truth" (Haqiqa) and the ultimate goal of the spiritual journey. Furthermore, it was determined that through a functional distinction, the poet established the Saqinama as the focal point of Intoxication (selflessness/ecstasy) and the Ghazals as the locus of Light (intuition/witnessing).
