چکیده:
Mystical text is an area of psychological exploration that provides a cognition, albeit a small one, of the position of nearness to God; it also reveals the hidden aspects of its author spiritual dimensions and shows how he/she understands his/her Lord and how he/she approaches to God. In Jung’s school of analytical psychology, “the process of individuation” is an unconscious effort to achieve mental development; it explains that human beings can never achieve the full psychological development, but can only achieve individual, comprehensive and inner experiences by recognizing the "superego". Tamhīdāt (The Preludes) a treatise written by Ayn al-Quzat Hamadani, the prominent mystic of the fifth and sixth centuries AH, reflects a psychological development. The purpose of the present study is to investigate this development in the unconscious of the author of Tamhīdāt. The research has been done by descriptive-analytical method. The results indicate that the author, in his magnum opus, unconsciously shows the psychological development using the mystical teachings and exploring the unconscious. The unconscious influence of the archetypes, such as "Christ", "Wise old man" which eventually merge with the archetype of "shadow" and guide to light, is evident in the book; Ayn al-Quzat tries to achieve the process of individuation and to reach "the superego" in a pure and original way.
خلاصه ماشینی:
The unconscious influence of prominent archetypes such as "Christ," the "Wise Old Man," and finally their integration with the "Shadow" archetype and guidance toward light and illumination, represents Ayn al-Quzat's effort to achieve the individuation process and reach a pure and unmediated access to the "Self," which serves as indicators of his unconscious mental exploration.
Therefore, the present research using a descriptive-analytical method, strives to answer these questions: Can it be said that the Tamhidat of Ayn al-Quzat Hamadani, while possessing innovative mystical, is a work resulting from the author's unconscious psychological processes?
Considering the clues present in the work, the highest form of the "Christ" or "Over-self" archetype, as a symbol of psychological evolution and intellect, and a transcendent and flawless soul that has reached the peak of the "individuation process," is His Eminence, the Seal of the Prophets, the Holy Prophet (PBUH), whose existence is free from any deficiency and who is himself the absolute light.
Of course, after these quotations, a specific interpretation is often not mentioned, but implicit and allusive concepts are hidden behind them, which Ayn al-Quzat uses to seek closeness to those signs of light and brings his own psychological evolutionary journey to perfection through this path; by relying on the absolute light and the inspirations of his own personal mind from the sayings and thoughts of that Prophet of light and perfection, he attains full individuality; but as was said, this evolution or station that Jung, in one expression, calls the archetype of Christ, belongs only to that great Prophet of Islam (PBUH) and no one else.
