On his journey to Mecca, the Sufi master Bayazid Bastami would first search in every town for a person of true spiritual vision, a guide whose perception was firmly established.
This couplet describes the primary practice of the great Sufi sheikh, Bayazid Bastami, as he travels toward the Kaʿba for the Hajj pilgrimage. His journey is not merely geographical; it is, first and foremost, a quest for spiritual companionship and guidance. Before concerning himself with the logistics of the road, in every city he enters, his first priority is to find a 'Man of God'—someone whose spiritual state is not fleeting or based on opinion, but is solidly founded on the 'pillars of insight' (arkān-i baṣīrat).
The imagery of 'pillars' suggests stability, reliability, and foundational strength. Bayazid is not looking for a charismatic preacher or a scholar of external knowledge, but for a person whose very being is supported by direct, unmediated perception of reality. Rumi uses this story to establish a core principle of the Sufi path: the physical pilgrimage to a holy site like the Kaʿba is secondary to the inner pilgrimage of finding a true spiritual guide. The subsequent verses state this explicitly, arguing that the guide is the 'treasure' and the journey itself is merely a byproduct.
