Al-Hikma al-muta‘aliya fi-l-asfar al-arba‘a: Intro

The Incredible Sadra Said:

I was seeking a concept that I couldn't find. if there exist a truth in all these new sebjects I've discovered and other scientific brankas such as mysticism an

d traditionalism, then all of the fact that I've found in the field of phylosophy most be confirmed by other religious subjects.

when I persisted and purified my soul by asceticism, then I was engulfed with light from the Devine omnipotence and kingdom, I unravelled mysteries and there were secrets revealed to me that reasoning and theorems couldn't do.

I saw my self, what Divine secrets i knew.

he massanger angel-told to me give to the thirsty a sip of the wine I'd drunk so they'd revive and their hearts get enlightened by knowledge because the time for a waiting is over and it's now tam to talk. The silent willpower was moved. the closed bud blossomed. The winter of dejection turned into the spring of rain.

I told my self it was time to commence works and effort. To provide principles by wich other points are clarified. A skeleton key that opens all doors. so I started writing Four Journeys on thanscedental wisdom. I dug a brook and mode water flowing in it so the posterities drink from it turn.

I'm proud to announce thet the phylosophy of Sadra is an intellectual, taste-related, and relegious subject. althought they are seem incompatible, this humble subject stepped on a path by the help of The Holly Spirit and the heart in wich phylosophy was freed from sarcasm, and the qur'an, mysticism, and reason would be considered in separarable from each other.

In Four Journeys, which is my greatest work, the importaint theosophycal subjects such asa the authenticity and doubt in existence that essencial movement the unity of the wise, wisdom, and rational, the chronological origination of universe, the relation between body and soul Resurrection and the way people re raised on Doomsday have been dealth with and proven according to intellectual, teste-related and transmitted teachings based on the Sealing Religion.

And what I have called trancedental wisdom has been appeared in an integrated way. And I've been bestowed the Devine honour of proving my phylosophycal understanding of the theosophycal issues of existance according to religious law, intuition, transmitted, and intellectual sciences.
