Promišljanje o filozofiji i teozofiji svjetlosti
Thinking about the philosophy and the theosophy of light

Summary/Abstract: Sheikh Shihabddin Suhrawadi, a notable Iranian Muslim theosophist and philosopher and the founder of the philosophy and theosophy of light, holds a special place in the history of thought, beyond comparison with others in terms of maturity, contemplation, intellectual depth, versatility of knowledge and action, creative innovativeness, force of expression of different positions and ideas, views of the world, as well as his superb knowledge of both Arabic and Persian language. Despite all this, a lot remains unknown about his life, thought, study and work. This paper presents the author’s ”contemplative journey” through the life and spiritual outlooks of Sheikh Ishraq, trying to present his literary oeuvre and offer a brief overview of his philosophy of light and its methods, sources, principles and foundations, thus raising certain issues in order to motivate a more serious and profound examination that would threat Suhrawadi in the way he truly deserves.
