"The process of individuality" is of Carl Gostav Jun’s idioms and illustrates the man’s attempt to reach the independence and the individual’s identity. The attempt starts from childhood and man fights with the internal forces to reach the homogeneity and sameness. The important subject is that the form and the process of stories, which contain many archetypes, have much similarity to the archetype in process of individuality. In Firouz Shah’s Darab Nameh the hero of the story went on a long trip following the daughter of the king of Yaman. He encountered lots of obstacles both natural and supernatural such as the monsters and witches. Accordingly, we study Firuz Shah and his fights to gain the Yaman princess.The Iranian prince’s trips can be a generalization of an internal trip for self-developpment. The purpose and the obstacles of the way can support this theory.
