On the Henry Corbin’s Reading of Mulla Sadra’s Eschatology

Adhering to a kind of spiritual interpretation influenced by Ibn-Arabi's mysticism, Sohravardi's wisdom, and Shiite theology on Man and the universe, Henry Corbin employed Heidegger's hermeneutic method as a key in the analysis of Mulla Sadra's eschatology, which is the continuation of his ontology in explaining the transcendental realms of human existence. Corbin, who is deeply influenced by Heidegger's ontology and hermeneutic phenomenology, extends his theory of hermeneutic levels to transcendent levels of existence and higher levels of presence. In the current research, in addition to examining Sadraic content and a concise explanation of the fundamental principles of Heidegger's philosophy, epistemology, and methodology, and the quality of their impact on Corbin's approach in eschatology, his attitude to eschatology is discussed and then his ontological views on the connection and continuity of various modes of presence are discussed.
