Abstract
Esoteric commentary is a more profound look into the universe and can be brought into regulation. This regularity can be divided into ontological, anthropological, epistemological and other categories. The current study has submitted proofs on the regularity of esoteric commentary from an anthropological point of view. A descriptive-analytic method was employed and ten regulations were identified. Esoteric commentary domain of Man, the relationship between esoteric commentary and descent, role of human perfection in knowing the truth, Man’s existential movement in esoteric commentary, referring the world to the hereafter, Man as a sample from universe, and referring science to the existence are amongst these regularities. This study also intended to shed light on the effect of Sadra’s anthropology on his esoteric commentary that in some cases are accompanied by his commentary on the holy Quran.
