Our Philosophy
The subject discussed by this book, has touched on the
main and fundamental concepts of the world and the
method of thinking about it. So, the research in this book on
two parts go like this:
First, The philosophical concept of the world.
Second, the theory of cognition or knowledge.
In the first one, the research summed up as follows:
A, studing the basic sources of cognition which are vision
and sanction.
In the first one (vision) the writer (Shahid Sadr),
discussec some theories about this regard. These theories
are: The theory of "Plato Exemplary", "rational theory" and
"sensualia theory". after the full pondering about these
theories, the writer prefers the fourth one which is
"Abstraction theory". This is a theory which Moslem
philosophers rely on it.
The summary of this theory is:
Notions ae divided in two kinds:
1 - Primary notions which are the main ones of man's
mind and are developed by sense. These sensate meanings
developed the first rational priciple. Then on the basis of it,
the mind, develops secondary notions, and as a result
initiates the role of innovation and development. According
to this theory it is called "abstraction". The mind as a result
of these primary meaning, achieves new meanings which are
out of the frame of sense.
This theory is harmonized with reasoning and experience
and can categorically and firmly interpret all notional
details.
The second kind (aknowlegement) discusses about two
rational and empirical theories. Shahid Sadr (the writer)
rejects the second theory (empirical) and explains the weak
pionts of schools adopted marxism and positivism which
proved the right of the mental logic that bases upon the
mental method in thinking and taking into consideration.
Mind is the most superior criterion for man's thinking,
and there is no philosophical or scientific idea without
submitting it to this rife criterion. Even the experience, the
more superior criterion from the expirimental person, point
of view, the first criterion is not a mean but for using the
intellect criterion, and empirical theory always needs to
intellect logic.
From the rationalists piont of view, mankind sciences are
divided in two kinds. The first one is "necessary or
self-evident science". According to this science, ego, accepts
this science without any reason. like the principle of
causation and principle of the imposibility of conjuction two
contradictories. These issues are the root of all sciences. The
second one is "speculative" sciences which the ego, for being
confident about thier truth, needs to be sure about them
before, and there is a necessity of thiking and reasoning
mechanism to judge about accepting or rejecting them. like
the globosity of ground or the impasibility of vicious circle.
Rationalists believe the intellct is deductive.
Studying the Value of the Human Understanding and to
what Extent that the Huminity may find its way to the
Objective Reality.
In the beginnig of his research the author (May God rest
his soul in Peace) starts explaining the ancient Greek
philosophers' viewpoints and their various inclinations
together with sophistic one.
Then he has shifted the theme to speak about the leaders
of the philosophical ranaissance in Europe, for instance,
RenÅ Descartes and John Locke.
Next he went farther in his discussion to review the ideal
doctrine with its modern inclinalions that is to say the
philosophical , physical and physiological idealism.
There upon he moved to argue convincingly the modern
suspicion supporters' perspectives.
He has reviewed in details the relativity theory and
affirmed its ignorance to the absolute fact and with regard
to the objective and individual aspect it is no more than a
mixture only.
Among a group of inclinations he has dealt with the
scientific suspicion and its theories in the fields of manner,
psychologicla analysis and historical materalism doctrine.
Somewhere of his research the author had stopped a
while to throw lights on the submission of the historical
materialism to the individual relativity through making full
confession to the caste individuality system and he defuted
its claims to not do so.
For your information, we would like to tell you that all
mentioned inclinations have been argued and defuted
scientifically by the author himself and we leave judgement
for you honourable reader.
For you the summed up headlines of the most rightest
doctrine from the pointview of the author are as follows:
1 - Dividing the perception into two parts:
a/ Valueless objective vision which means thing seen
vividly in our imagination.
b/ Sanction that finds out an objective reality for vision.
2- All sanctioning understandings can bear traits due to
their background of basic ones, such as, the
non-contradiction and causation principles which other
theoretical knowledges and sanctions should be built on, for
the value and power of such knowledges depend on that
foundation.
3 - The relationship between the mental image and the
objective reality shows on two aspects are as follows:
a/ The mental picture should embody all thing features
else it does not have any kind of image to be formed.
b/ This mental image at the same time is different
completely from the objective reality, since it neither
possesses the exact traits that the objective reality does so
for that, nor be provided with what has found in the reality
ifself of patchword activities and energies whatever so that
mental image be on a strict and detailed degree of clearness,
So the image for sun and heat is unable to stand for the
active roles that may be played by the objective reality for
that image outside.
And we can say, due to the philosophical language that
the difference between the thought and reality is the same
as it is between the existence and causation.
