Abstract
According to Norman Holland, the reader goes to the text in order to "get pleasure"; Because he sees his desires in it in a different way. For the analysis of mystical states, the knowledge of psychoanalysis as a practical and progressive knowledge has always played a decisive role. Based on this, we can conclude that psychoanalytic criticism of mystical readings is one of the needs and necessities of literary criticism in the present era. With such a view and considering the importance of the subject, 10 scientific-research articles in which the researchers had presented mystical readings of the sustainability poems of contemporary Iranian poets were selected and analyzed. The results showed that if the reader uses the psychoanalysis facilities correctly during the reading, he can gain more success in discovering the true meaning of the text; But if he cannot control these facilities, it will lead to reading distortion. For example, the defense mechanism of "idealization" causes exaggerated reading of the text and not seeing or underestimating its weak points; or the activation of expansion in the process of reading the text, if it is not under the control of the reader, it causes the path of interpretation to change and as a result, the reader, without delay in the lower layers of meaning, fills only the gaps of the surface layer of meaning; However, if the readers use the "foreigner" approach consciously in the reading process, the value, effectiveness and attractiveness of the reading will be increased.
