Abstract: (525 Views) |
logotherapy was invented by Viktor Frankl as one of the existentialist psychotherapy schools. The main mission of this school is to emphasize the importance of the meaning of life and its unique role in getting rid of existential emptiness and aimlessness in life. The three main beliefs of this school are: belief in the existence of God, religion and immortality. The present research, which was carried out by descriptive-analytical method and through library sources, after carefully reading the metaphysical beliefs of Frankel's school, evaluates them based on the intellectual foundations of Allameh Tabatabayi (r). The main research question is what are the most important metaphysical beliefs of Frankel's logotherapy school? And what are their similarities and differences with respect to Islamic teaching, based on the opinions of Allameh Tabatabayi? The research findings show: the incorrect and superficial explanation of the concept of God and its degradation from the level of necessary position to the pure level of a meaning-giver, a minimal definition of religion and a pluralistic and instrumentalist view of it, and not paying attention to the reality of happiness and vague interpretations of immortality are the most important points of difference between Frankel and Allameh Tabatabai is in the field of metaphysical beliefs.
Keywords: Belief, Metaphysics, Logotherapy, Viktor Frankl, Allameh Tabatabai.
