Abstract

Research Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the discovery and intuition in Islamic and Indian mysticism. From the perspective of Islamic mystics, the best way to know God and to believe in him is intuitive knowledge. Research method: The research method in this dissseration is of a type of library and content analysis. Findings: For Islamic mystics, the type of discovery and intuition, and consequently its epistemic value, is the regular existential function of the recipient and the revelation, and its proportion depends on its causal agent. With regard to the different schools of Hindu mysticism from "Hindu", "Brahma", "Vedantism", "Buddhism", "Yoga" and so on, the different branches and tendencies of each are not ultimately the same. For example, in Buddhist mysticism, the status of "bodhi" and "nirvana" or the achievement of discovery, which is non-revelation; In the Universe, the population of the people and some news are absent. Both Islamic and Hindu mystics believe that the mystic reaches a place where his spiritual eye is opened and he is visited by witnesses. Meeting this meaning is what Hindus (Hindu mystics) call Diana, attaining witness. In both Hindu and Islamic mysticism, those who overcome their selfish tendencies and despair of their desires achieve the discovery and intuition of the truth. In Upanishads it is emphasized that those who can overcome their senses and sensual desires attain the intuition of the Truth. Conclusion: Unlike the discovery and intuition of Hindu mysticism, there is no degree of correctness and error, in contrast to Islamic mysticism, which has a methodological, methodological and standard of identification and deals with the privilege of true discovery of false discovery or the discovery of right from wrong.
