Positive psychology focuses on human’s abilities and shows the way to peace in human societies. Seligman, the founder of this science, tries to express what Aristotle called the "good life" by explaining the emotions of the time (present, past, future). Therefore, according to Seligman, the nature of lasting happiness in the past is to get "satisfaction". But in the past he believed in how to: change your mind, increase gratitude and learn to forgive. Satisfaction is achievable. Consequently, satisfaction with life is based on the cognitive components of the individual. On the other hand, one of the transcendent concepts of Islamic mysticism is "satisfaction", which can be achieved through self-awareness and explanation of positivist teachings. Rumi also pays special attention to moral teachings with a positive attitude and a focus on the perfect person. Investigating such a precious heritage with a new approach shows that theoretical issues are not separate from the worldview and cultural heritage. In this research, the components of positive psychology in Masnavi were identified and adapted using descriptive analytical methods to achieve satisfaction. The main question of this article in Masnavi's text is “To what extent does the acquisition of satisfaction as a basic need of modern man correspond to the components proposed by Seligman?”. In conclusion the joint achievements of both thinkers are the result of a deep connection with "faith". But Rumi's vision is bolder in this regard; Because relying on divine spiritual values and Islamic mysticism makes him a guide to eternal happiness.

In this article, the two main characters of Souvashun's novel (Yousef and Zari) are psychoanalyzed by Karen Horney's theory of neurosis. Karen Horneydescribes different types of neurotic behavior as a result of overusing coping strategies to deal with basic anxiety caused by interpersonal relationships. She identified three broad categories of three neurotic needs in her theory: needs for power, prestige and affection. Horney considers the presence of anxiety as the main sign of nervous conflict in personality. Psychoanalytic analysis showed that the male character of the novel (Joseph) reflects all kinds of natural desires, feelings, and behaviors without anxiety, and that his behavioral contradictions are the kind of natural contradictions seen in ordinary human beings. But the character of the female one (Zari) is very anxious. The fundamental contradiction in his behavior reflects the symptoms of a benevolent nervous personality. Severe anxiety in Zari's character breaks down his character's defense structure. Eventually the fear of madness comes. Here, the neurotic character prepares to heal and undergo treatment. In Souvashun's novel, Dr. Abdullah Khan, by referring Zarito her real self, helps her overcome the gap between her imaginary self and his real self and regain her lost courage.
