A Comparative Study of Pantheism in Upanishad and Mathnavi

The striking similarity between Islamic mysticism and that of other peoples is undoubtedly noteworthy. Although mystical experiences around the world share some similarity, we should not expect them to be expressed in the same words. However, one is astonished when he sees that senses and experiences used in Upanishad and Mathnavi on different topics are so identical. This article compares the mystical concept of pantheism in Upanishad and Mathnavi. The author tries to present the important points, but identification is not meant at all; proportions are attended to. These proportions reveal strikingly delicate points because the two schools have a closely similar view of the main metaphysical subjects.
