Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

The interpretation and analysis of destiny or divine decree in all beings' nature as it is existed and also as one of the permanent current cases of beings is a widespread subject that has had various and varied reflexes in the thoughts and beliefs of different religious theorists, sages and philosophers during previous ages and centuries. This philosophic- religious category, on the one hand, has been proposed in Gnostic and philosophical issues of the nations and, on the other hand, it has been integrated with social, psychological and philosophical matters such as determinism and choice. Since the specified limitation has not been proposed for such arguments, explaining these kinds of problems are always along with integrations, variations, and also dualities. Among the current differences between theorists' points of view, the authors of this study try to present descriptive and critical reflex from the Molana Jalal-al-din Mohammad Balkhi's view as the essence of Islamic mysticism and selection of the best cases of this technique in comparison with "Carlos Castaneda", the famous theorist of mysticism integrated with alchemy, and Indian mystic; in a way that an analytic image of beliefs of these two great thinkers be proposed in the present world. This study is away to access to more extensive studies in this field and an effort to find common points of nations and different fields of mystical and quasi-mystical thoughts.
