Analyzing the theory of the unity of existence in the Manifestation religion from the point of view of Attar and Sheikh Shabastri

In the worldview of the unity of existence, all possibilities are composed of hierarchies that start from the first matter and lead to the total existence, and all beings reflect their only center, which is existence, like concentric circles. In this worldview, man is manifested through the manifestation of names and attributes, the truth and the world through the manifestation of his actions, and the eternal beloved has caused the appearance of all these characters and images with his holy and holy graces. Persian mystical poetry shows the thought of the unity of mystical existence and reflects the deep concepts of mystic and lover poets who expressed it with their mystical experience. Therefore, the explanation and analysis of Attar and Sheikh Shabastri's poems shows that they They have discussed the same about the manifestation of unity; Because both of them agree that the creation has emerged from the manifestation of names, attributes and actions of the one God and all possibilities are like multiple mirrors which, according to their characteristics, are the manifestation of that absolute essence. The metaphor of the mirror is the most obvious metaphor that the two mystics use in this case to show the relationship between possibilities and the manifestation of truth. The only difference between them is that Attar pays attention to the appearance of truth in the mirror of possibilities with a more romantic look than Shabestri; And Shabestri with more veil and modesty and with a sharper submissiveness kills me. With a comparative approach and citing the works of these two great writers, this article tries to show their intellectual similarities and commonalities, such as; The uniformity of form and meaning, the series of degrees of existence, unity in the same multiplicity and multiplicity in the same unity, seeing creation as a magazine of the manifestation of unity, creation in the sense of imagining the possibility of emergence, the nothingness of possibilities and the existence of the existence of God Almighty and... about manifestation explain and examine the unity of existence. Attar's ghazals and Shabastri's Golshan Raz, which express their mystical thoughts in the best way, form the basis of this comparison.
