analytic study of corporeality of soul from mulla sadra’s viewpoint

Abstract

the expression “corporeality of soul” in sadra’s works can be interpreted on the basis of two different views: that of corporeality origination of soul according to which the soul in its initial stages of existence is “imprinted’’ and immanent in matter. in the second view, however, the soul is of “essential relatedness” in virtue of which it has a relative being and thus is existentially related to matter. it seems that without distinguishing between these two views one cannot have a clear understanding of the term “corporeality” as it is used in mulla sadra. moreover, with this distinction one can reach two different interpretations of corporeal origination and spiritual immortality of soul of sadra both of which seem to have been emphasized by him.
