Ch1. E9. Ibn ʿArabī’s Fuṣūṣ al-Ḥikam (Seals of Wisdom), Wisdom of Adam

Rasoul Rahbari-Ghazani Music: Amirmohammad Monjezi: https://www.youtube.com/@amirmohamdmonjezi The following guiding questions will help you navigate the episode: Ibn Arabi says, "The Real has permeated existence, and is present in every being to the degree that the reality of that being requires." What implications does this have in our social, religious, (political?!), and environmental life? If the human being is, as Ibn Arabi puts it, "both the Real and created," well, you know the question: implications?! How does Ibn Arabi's account of God's permeation differ from pantheism, deism, and panentheism? Does permeation indicate a static or dynamic relationship between God and the cosmos? Why does Ibn Arabi say we should attribute negative things to ourselves and positive ones to God? Ibn Arabi asserts that the book was dictated to him. What implications does this claim have?   My latest book: Sarayān: The Real’s Permeation: Ibn ʿArabi on the Divine Presence in the Cosmos with Neoplatonic Insights (available in both digital and print formats): https://immortalechoes.org/pages/our-press Visit our ⁠Academy of Mystic Poetics and Philosophy⁠, and check out our courses: https://immortalechoes.org/pages/courses If you enjoy the content and wish to ⁠support our work⁠, your generosity helps us continue creating: https://immortalechoes.org/pages/donations Watch more from our Ibn Arabi Podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqkz7b_183HG0qkYvbH9dyTAWnncKZGLp&si=sCNGBNjB7RRRIZat My recent publications: https://istanbul.academia.edu/RasoulRahbariGhazani #IbnArabi #Sufism #IslamicMysticism #SpiritualWisdom #UnityofExistence #onenessofbeing #wahdat_alwujud
