Mysticism, and the observed and the observer, the man come to the unity and oneness of the flame of love, the two true lovers to join eternity and forever. Mirror in the mystical literature, the secrets inside of you, in love, in centuries gone by, has revealed that perhaps one of the most profound, is a manifestation of the unity of the two.

To prevent the cultures and religions conflicts, western societies have raised religious pluralism and political liberalism in global village whereas in mystical texts with "love" entering the Islamic mysticism, the discussion of peace and love of people is raised. And also, contradictory phenomena of the developing world are prone to the peace and hospitality; also, the Holly Qur'an recommends peace among believers. The reason for the Tolerance of Mystics is the magnitude of the creation and the diminutiveness of the human thinking against it. This tolerance does not mean disorganization against Sharia; Rather, it is a trust for divine forgiveness and covering protection that after building the absorption capacity for guilty Muslims, He turns to other religious disciples such as Jews and Christians and provides the capacity for their reception in society so that the geographic, skin color and racial boundaries are not considered and the sufferings and pain of humanity are healed, and there comes a concern over public affairs and an exodus for other religious disciples are kept open, and thus, such a compassion for public and hospitality to becomes a reason for peace and calmness and the development of Islam in other countries like India and Africa.

.An analytic Study through the Divan-e- Salman-e- Saveji reveals the fact that in love mysticism, he is greetely influenced by the distinguished figures such as Ibn-e- Arabi, Moulavi and Hafez. Going through his poems, the presence of mysticism in various forms is vividly understood. Like his sonnets, the odes, written to give his compliments to those who have been admired by him however, is full of mystical lessons.

His poems are characterized to be against hypocritical asceticism, but in favor of roguishness. Love and pantheism have been known to be the main themes of his poems and the core of his allusions. From his joyful point of view, the reality of life can be found in true love. In the appraisal sonnets and odes, a mixture of romantic deep feelings and a mystical look upon the universe, forms Salman’s attitude and life style. From this aspect, Salman has inherited his ancestors’ mystical tradition and pantheism. Manuscript profile

The purpose of this paper is an analysis of "Detachment" from the perspective of Eckhart and Rumi, the great Sufi, Christian and Muslim, which uses library resources to study the concept and characteristics of "Detachment". One of the pivotal teachings of Gnostic philosophy among all mystics and mystical schools is "Detachment". Its dignity is so that Eckhart and the Rumi intends to invite everyone to gain it. From the perspective of Eckhart and Rumi, "Detachment" is the lack of belonging, freedom and leave; in this state, the mystic leaves the whole of his person and everything and achieves into the union with God is. From Eckhart’s view, without knowing, without possession and without desiring, one achieves "Detachment".

6 - Truth Of Torment in Mysticism (Based on Ibn Arabi Viewpoint)

In Spiritual wayfaring toward The Great Lord, any sin and disobedience from the order of the dearest -The Lord- in itself will be deemed a sin that will be followed by torment. The veil of divine revelation and closeness to God, in the mystics’ point of view, is the evidence of torment and so is hell with the same level and deprivation of divine closeness. Any kinds of sin include stages of the same dimension which per se is torment so that the punishment of hypocrites and infidels and the rest will be different according to their levels. In fact, Hell and Naar are general concepts which cover all different aspects of punishment by themselves. Ibn-Arabi believes that the nature of torment is changeable and unstable, therefore it is a relative issue that fits with talent and taste in different recipients. In fact, in Ibn-Arabi’s point of view it is the understanding, impression and knowledge of the suffering man that would evolve towards to the issue of torment and thereby feels no pain and agony, and his torment finally ends up. What comes out of mystical texts would be that the punishment is in fact a manifestation of divine mercy indeed, which is used by God to reduce the burden of his sin by tormenting the guilty ones by means of which this mercy clears the nature of the guilty ones from turpitude and vice. This study attempts to use the verses and the words of mystics in a descriptive and analytical way to make clear the different aspects of the idea of torment, its reality and different kinds.

Is the appearance of Sufism in its modern meaning and in turn Sufism literature an abrupt event or a result of historical processes and evolution of social trends which led to such an extensive phenomenon? Though it is true that gnostic thoughts and also Sufism in its general meaning date back to the beginning of the human history, but except for a few ambiguous images on the cave walls and/or myth stories attributed to the ancient people after invention of writing systems, nothing has remained from the vast sea of the ancient people thoughts and ideas. Identification of Sufism phenomenon and its effects on the Islamic societies and also on the non-Islamic ones in later times is subject to the same above-mentioned constraints and limitations. Acknowledging the inevitable deficiencies, the author tries to present a picture of the appearance of Sufism and some examples of its various influences on the society based on the remaining relevant books and literature as accurate as possible Manuscript profile

Mystically, time is something holy and lahooti and a sort of everlasting concept, which regardless the length and shortness of time passing by, the truth of intuition and achieving a pleasing spiritual situation during intuition and revelation of mystics take place in an absolutely timeless situation. The situation in which the past and future time are annihilated and worn out. For the mystic, the moments of absorption and intuition and connection to the spiritual world, beyond the normal and sensual time, are the moments of discovering the horizons from invisible truths in the realm of eternity. While floating at the pleasing time of intoxication, the doorlets of invisible truths are opened to the mystic and makes him so much joyful that the rest of his life is deemed as lacking such a moment, unproductive and barren. At the moments of intuition and revelation, the mystic is standing across from the time boundary, released from the spiral of time and is free from any bonds. The mystics make their comments and reflections on the Koranic verses on the primary agreements of the creation, and by recalling such an eternal agreement it appears as if the sounds of lahooti music is whispered in their ears from the eternal heaven so that they are inflicted with an inexplicable intoxication and infatuation and are thrilled wholeheartedly. Listening to the oration on agreement in an eternal time looks like drinking wine from the divine cup of affection by mystics in a way that their lives are filled with passion and restlessness. The intoxication and passion of mystics comes from the fact that in His words the Almighty has addressed them directly. Manuscript profile
