Abstract (1071 Views)
The theory of Jismāniyyat al-Ḥudūth wa Rūḥāniyyat al-Baqā’ (corporeal origination and spiritual subsistence) in Mulla Sadra’s philosophy is one of the most fundamental perspectives in explaining the nature and evolution of the soul. This theory dynamically explains the relationship between matter and form, holding that the human soul originates as a material phenomenon but ascends to a spiritual, immaterial level in its developmental process. In contrast, emergentism in contemporary philosophy of mind and science argues that new qualitative properties, such as mind and consciousness, emerge from the complex interactions of material components and possess causal efficacy irreducible to their physical bases. The present article provides a comparative analysis of Mulla Sadra’s theory within the framework of emergentism, identifying key similarities and differences. It further examines the metaphysical and epistemological foundations of both views, assessing their relevance to contemporary debates in philosophy of mind and artificial intelligence. Additionally, the present article offers a distinction between physical and immaterial consciousness in line with Sadra’s view.
