सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

Mothers in Iran are famous for having 'delshooreh' for their children, even if they are adults. It's considered a sign of 'Madaraneh' (motherly) love. Some Iranians believe that if you get a sudden 'delshooreh', you should say a prayer or give a small amount of money to the poor to prevent a bad event. If a guest is late to a dinner party, the host might say 'delshooreh gereftim' to show how much they care about the guest's safety. In Persian poetry, the 'Del' is the center of the universe. Agitation in the 'Del' reflects a cosmic imbalance for the individual.

Use with 'Daram'
