Abstract:
Meaning therapy is a method that helps a person find meaning in his life behind difficulties and problems and answer to his fundamental questions. The main hypothesis of this paper is that the principles of semantic therapy can be found in Farabi's philosophical and political theories that are compatible with the views of Victor Frankl, the founder of the semantic therapy school, and these principles can be explained based his thought. Examining Farabi's system of thought in a descriptive, comparative, and inferential way, we find that he is not only a philosopher and political thinker but also a doctor who, by identifying the suffering of the people of his time, tries to cure the disease of his society by teaching philosophical and political principles to provide meaning. His method of meaning therapy to achieve a meaningful pattern of life, i.e. understanding happiness can be found in 1. doing valuable work, 2. creating empirical values 3. Value of high experiences, and its components: recognizing individual responsibility, creating moral virtues, forming a community, and Lovemaking, mentioned.
