Abstract

Due to the fact that most of the works written in the field of "farr" are focused on its literal meaning, its derivatives and mythological manifestations, and also because the concept of "Farr" in our time is the basis of many topics of modern physics, including luminous aura, energy chakras and it is energy therapy, in the review of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, the historical roots of "Farr" and its various forms are less mentioned in connection with the manifestations of cosmic energy. The authors, looking at the concept of "Farr" and its characteristics, with a descriptive-analytical method and a library approach They have investigated the metamorphosis of "Farr" and its connection with cosmic energies, how it has appeared in today's world issues and what are its main sources? What are the types and interpretations of "Farr" and today's manifestations, and what is the reflection of "Farr" in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh. This article aims to investigate the material and spiritual forms and incarnations of "farr" and its connection with cosmic energy, and to analyze and investigate its transfer from the Mehri religion to the Avesta and then from Ferdowsi's Shahnameh to the present age. Some of the researches that have been written in connection with the theoretical foundations of this article in the field of cosmic energy include books on traditional cosmology and modern science, the quantum ideas of Rumi, the quantum world, research in Iranian mythology, Yashta, Farrah Ezadi in the ancient Iranian monarchy. and the article "Farah, this magical and heavenly force". The conducted research shows that human beings are surrounded by a subtle energy called aura of energy. In the past, this subtle energy, especially in the area of the head chakra, was known as "farr", and it is the most important discipline that connects humans to the beyond; At first, the donors of the "farr" were Mehr and Apam Nepat, and "farr" belonged to the sun and water, but after Zoroastrianism came into use, Ahura Mazda became the donors of the "farr" and fire became its main element. In the Shahnameh, "farr" is the main pillar and the fundamental element and in its incarnations it is transformed into an alive creature or objects and manifests itself in the form of strength and talent in the form of beauty, wisdom and power or mysterious objects. The appearance of the "farr" in Mehri religion, Avesta and Shahnameh is a luminous aura, and the appearance of the "farr"  has been attributed to tangible signs and forms, for example, in the Avesta, it is the bird of Verghan and Ghorm, and... after that in the Shahnameh, it is called Simorgh, Homa, A deer, a horse, a Jahanbin Cup, a ring, etc., and also the effect that this energy had on the head chakra and made the aura of energy  around the head brighter, they called Shamse, Crown, Dastar, Dihim, etc. as well as the effect that this energy had on the head chakra and made the aura of energy around the head more luminous, were like Shamse, Taj, Dastar, Dihim, etc., of course, in the Shahnameh, "Farr" is a divine gift, and sometimes it shines in the form of light from the faces of kings, etc., and sometimes it is manifested in the form of a divine thought in finding secrets and breaking magic.
