Comparative Study of Manifestation in Rumi's and Shabestari's Monistic Thoughts pertaining Masnavi and Golshan-e-raaz

As we know, Rumi's worldview is based on monism; the fact that the nature of the almighty has manifested in various forms in objects and creatures, has made them the overall mirror of the almighty. Because of the impression of Rumi's school of thought on Shabestari, this concept has entered in his mystical ideology as well. This paper tries to make a comparative study on the concept of 'manifestation', one of the basic concepts on the issue of absolute unity. Our major goal at present and in general is the study of the comparative and contrastive ideas of Rumi and Shabestari against the manifestation of the almighty in objects and creatures.
