Mystical Stations from Viewpoint of Hafiz Shirazi and Shah Nematollah Vali
Journal Title: Journal of Science and today’s world - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
In the present paper, the mystical stations from the point of view of Hafiz Shirazi & Shah Nematollah Vali have been investigated. Khajeh Shamsedin Mohammad, Hafiz Shirazi, the most prominent Persian sonneteer, had some relationship and correspondence with Shah Nematollah Vali. Hafiz has fascinated many theosophists as well as ordinary people all over the world by tremendous attraction of his philosophical and witty poetry. Thanks to the blessing by recitation of Holy Quran, Hafiz was a real theologist; some of the contemporary scholars have recognized him as a full-scale, sterling theosophist and Sufi. Hafiz’s inclination toward Qalandariyeh, especially Malamatiyeh sect (of Sufism) is quite obvious. Shah Nematollah passed the stations on the spiritual path and reached perfection and after that he lied to helping seekers and guiding aspirants. Like other Sufi leaders he expressed his belief in the necessity of guidance and helping and leadership of Murshid (a spiritual guide) in poetry, while Hafiz used his delicate, subtle ironic poetry to express sociopolitical issues. Bothe poets were influenced by the thought of Ibn E Arabi. The application of mystical terms to the poetry of Hafiz is original and culturally-rooted while they are stereotyped and repetitious in the poetry of Shah Nematollah.
