Ontological Approaches of Substantial Movement in View of Professor Ashtiani

Substantial movement is one of the important issues and central foundations of transcendent philosophy. Some philosophers due to the weakness of their philosophical basis have not been able to provide for it a reasonable and justified explanation and answer the objections, so they themselves joined them. Transcendental philosophers in different periods have made their brilliant effort in illuminating of the teachings of transcendent philosophy. The effort of unique contemporary philosopher, Ashtiani, in explaining and bringing out the doctrine from the turmoil of doubters and showing its broad influential application in various fields, is unique. Prevailing on this issue requires a dynamic skill in all transcendental philosophical system in various fields, especially in religious thought so that a great scholar such as Ashtiani can highlight the central unique role of this doctrine for explaining and strengthening the religious and monotheistic worldview and prove that in addition to the deep intelligibilities that regard the institution of the world dynamic and seeker, religious teachings, verses and hadith also clearly inspire this sublime idea. Professor Ashtiani believes in substantial movement like other transcendent philosophers and applies it as a basic principle for philosophical explaining and justification and solving the complex ontological and anthropological issues and foundational beliefs of origin resurrection and bases on it the foundation philosophizing and offers interpretative interests for the religious texts. Using this method and view, he provides the soundest principles leading to this doctrine and approaches based on it particularly in the area of ontology in the tradition of transcendent philosophy.
