Abstract
Ideal human being is the most important anthropological teaching that has been the focus of opinions and thoughts of different religions and schools. In Islam, the great mystic of the 6th lunar century, Jalaluddin Muhammad Balkhi, known as Maulvi, considers the ideal human being to have characteristics that were extended in later periods among many spiritual movements. Molavi considers the ideal man to be a rare alchemy that mediates truth and creation; He is the embodiment of complete truth, has a wide heart, is generous, thinks about the future, has the capacity to accept hidden secrets, love the truth, the shadow of Yazdan, the secret of secrets and is free from worldly ties. At the same time, Arana Castaneda, known as Castanda, as one of the elements of spirituality discourse in the world, with mixed attitudes of different religions, an ideal man, possessing characteristics such as: anti-rationalism, belligerence and the use of psychoactive substances and Considering everything as unimportant, he knows that the result is a human being without worshiping the commands of God and His Messengers; Castaneda's ideal man is a nature-oriented person with red-skinned characteristics, whose most important features are autocracy, union with the spirit of the world, absurdity, etc., but Molavi's ideal man is a person who has a royal color, a mediator of grace. He considers reason important, he is right-oriented, he loves the supreme truth.



در اسلام ، عارف بزرگ قرن ششم قمری ، جلال الدین محمد بلختی ، معروف به مولوی ، انسان ایده آل را به عنوان ویژگی هایی که در دوره های بعدی در بین بسیاری از جنبش های معنوی گسترش یافته است ، می داند.
