The Remembrance of God, Time and Memory and its Relation with the Symbol of Calmative (delârâm) in Molana's Shams Poems

Molana is one of the mystics who particularly cared about the remembrance of God and its symbols. Remembrance of God is the most important reason of connection with the metaphysic world, about which numerous symbols can be found in the poems of Molana. One of these symbols is calmative (delârâm) which is in connection with serenity (sekineh) obtained by isolation, worship, continuous remembrance of God and numinous notions. Numinous notion is the opposite point of memory in psychological and philosophical sense. In philosophy, thinking about what happened in the past is due to pondering and understanding the meaning of time and existence. Philosophers have posed the memory in proportion to the human’s phenomena, which forms his identity and characters. The meaning of numinous notion and its formation process in Islamic mysticism has been studied in this paper.
