| description | “Path of perfection”, one of the most famous concepts and terms in mysticism, has been derived from a conceptual domain formed in relation to the meaning of walking or passing. As if they really thought of this process as a path that exists. Also, the word "camino" in Spanish means road, and that is the beginning of the subscriptions between these two literary styles. In this context, there is a metaphorical notion around the concept which is consistent with the notion of mystical conduct. Eventually, they both refer to the concept of the “creed”. Other terms including “moradas” have the same structure. "Morada" literally means residence and refers to the place where we choose to stay. But in mystical terms, it means the stage that the mystics choose: a way to “transcendency”. Hence, it is quite compatible with the concept of “Manzel” which means residences “on the way”. Three major grades of Spanish mysticism that are known as “Path of Perfection” can be a departure point in a comparative approach to Mystic studies in Iran and Spain and further investigations of these concepts and senses. Accordingly, this paper gives examples from the biography of Santa Teresa de Jesus and Abu-Saeed Abulkhair. From this point of view, due to the subscription in their lifetime, mortifications, thoughts, doctrines, creed, and their unique incorporations between poetry and ascetics, this paper aims to characterize an aspect in resemblance of these mystical methods. |
