Abstract

When one moves away from the tangible things and becomes more attentive to himself, he becomes overwhelmed by loneliness and dilemma. Man descended from the universe and set foot on the earth with which he was unfamiliar. The necessity of being present in this world is linked to suffering and loneliness. Nonetheless, will the aftermath of this inner feeling and religious view not lead to nihilism, pessimism and depression? Qazi Sa’id Qomi, with his philosophical and mystical style that is based on the Shiite religious view and narrative, seeks to show us the path to liberation and excellence by focusing on the pragmatic solutions and ethical approaches. He emphasizes the role of ethics and religious worship for the human upbringing and for liberating him from loneliness and the transcendence of the soul. All the apparent actions of man have a supernatural truth that connects us to the higher worlds of matter and brings us to light and spirituality.
