Cosmos as Meditation: Sufi and Shi'a Muslim Reflection on the Spiritual Cosmology

the following work is a compilation of studies I have made of the symbolic cosmology of the mystic Muslim schools of Shi'ism and Sufism. In it you will find philosophical explanations of esoteric doctrines of the Shi'a and Sufis. Some of this has been presented at the Hajj Mehdi Arjomand Colloquia on Baha'i Scripture, while part 6 was presented at the World Congress on Mulla Sadra in Tehran in 1999. Part 7 was to be presented at an academic conference in Israel. Parts of this work have already passed academic peer review, such as parts of part 3 and all of part 5.
