Basic purpose of this thesis is understand of ultimate image from goal of human’s life in the realm of Mulla sadra’s mystical wisdom.So at beginning the thesis it is attempted to understand exactly goal, life and mystical wisdom.Some of the most important components of mystical wisdom are: acceptance of unity of existence, acceptance of the inward and outward state to the world, the emphasis on action, believing in austerity and self-mortification, belief in knowledge by presence, emphasis on great impact of ecstasy and love supreme origin in mystical journey and viewing the arriving, unity and annihilation in unique reality of existence.To Search these components in the form of “mystical ontology and mystical theology, mystical cosmology, mystical anthropology and mystical epistemology” provides mystical capacity of Mulla Sadra’s transcendent wisdom. Then it can be possible to have logical and coherent assessment of Sadra’s mystical wisdom and the ability of mystical definition of human and his goal.By accepting the argument of personal unity of existence, Mulla Sadra fulfills his transcendental wisdom to accept the results of its derivatives. Based on mystical theology and his knowledge of names and in addition to the three degrees named natural, imaginary and rational ones, Mulla Sadra believes the divine degree for humans and the world that it changes his image of the man and the world and provides the possibility to upgrade the definition of human to a theosophist.Accepting living, awareness and love as a factor of divine manifestation and their currency to the world, he does not limit human in specific degree and level that is called as the station of without stopping and above intellectual celibacy.He also defines the knowledge of self as a necessary discussion for the human satisfaction and real mystics in this path can be succeed. In epistemology, emphasizing on knowledge by presence, he provides a capacity of present and intuitive knowledge of Allah in transcendental wisdom. Accordingly he insists on divine journey and its requisite. So he put the factors and obstacles of the mystical journey in front of mystic disciple. In the discussion of the goal and ultimacy, Mulla Sadra explains along with arguing Allah and life and ecstasy and divine love toward his manifestations, he offers the ultimate image from goal of life being presumably in his works, in three steps “relation to active intellect, unity to active intellect and annihilation in Allah.the path can be continuous after the annihilation and reaching “subsistence with Allah” and during four mythic journeys. Considering these mystical elements in transcendental wisdom proves Mulla Sadra’s mystical system and his succeeded in theosophical transcendence. A success that can be promoted.Accordingly the writer has attempted to provide a rational and discursive way to understand the purpose of a structure,in addition to study the wisdom in the system of personal unity of existence and offering another image of human realms and in accordance with ultimate image of goal of life and foundationalism based on knowledge by presence as an effective usage of capacities knowledge by presence are emphasized by the writer.this thesis is come to an end by study of influence of ultimate and Mystical image from goal of life on meaning of life and providing a strategic plan for arriving to goal and meaning that be mentioned.
