Some symbols such as the "Bardekel" have a special place in Bakhtiari culture as a spiritual symbol which is analyzed based on the views of Mircea Eliade in this article. The research method is field-library and qualitative content analysis. According to studies, the "Bardekel" symbolizes oath, fertility, rain, need, guardianship, and resurrection. By examining various sources and analyzing mythological symbols, "Bardekel" has religious and spiritual roots in the Bakhtiari people in ancient and post-ancient Iran. Research shows that the people of this land, who are mainly nomads, seek to instill meanings that are very effective in their lives by stoning the hills overlooking the Imamzadehs. Eliade believes that when the symbols of the sacred appear in the form of worldly affairs, they establish a dialectical relationship between the sacred and the worldly, and that there is a transformation of the worldly into the sacred in the subconscious mind of man who is fully aware of it. Therefore, in this research, based on the relationship between the sacred and the worldly affairs, we seek to induce the meanings and effectiveness of this symbol in people's lives.
