Attention to the types and levels of intellect as different tools of cognition in philosophy and mysticism has been proposed for centuries. In the meantime, Rumi has emphasized the position and importance of intellect and the distinction of its types. Carefully in Masnavi it can be seen that the partial and general intellect bears a striking resemblance to the primary and secondary reflection proposed by the French philosopher Gabriel Marcel. The present study has been done in a descriptive-comparative manner and the And the results show that Rumi and Marcel, through two different perspectives, the first mystical and the second philosophical, have realized that transcendental truths can be obtained through experience and intuition, and these issues are not solvable issues; They have to be confronted and they are ultimately astonishing.
