A Contrastive Study of Superficial Education and Spiritual Education in the Words of Saadi and Molana

Mowlavi's  Mathnavi and Saadi's  Bustan and  Golestan are among the instructional works of the Persian Language and  Mystic Instruction is one of the common aspect  of Mowlana's and Saadi's teachings. The principal objective of religious and mystic instructional schools is paving the way  for the spiritual transformation of human beings, getting to know the pollutions and sensual maladies, and eradicating them. Such pollutions having been eradicated, the repercussion of their teachings which is the reflection of the divine light and enlightenment of very human being in the light of the truth sun shall be materialized. However, such instruction are not only simple and superficial; they embody all aspects of human being and require an all embracing movement and transformation. Consequently, in mystic instruction, in addition to the surface and superficial behavior, the interior and its hidden angles are brought under consideration. For this reason, acting like an  experienced educator and skillful  psychologist, mystics ,such as Mowlana attempts to heal the maladies affecting  the lower strata of human interior through  their instructions, and a Muslim such as Saadi, with mystic tendencies, depicts the hidden influence of such teachings in the human ethics and conduct.
