The Ontology of Tajalli: Henry Corbin and Ibn ‘Arabi on the Reality of Being (Henry Corbin Studies Book 6) Kindle Edition

The Ontology of Tajalli: Henry Corbin and Ibn ‘Arabi on the Reality of BeingUnlock a transformative journey through the deepest questions of reality, Being, and consciousness with The Ontology of Tajalli. In this groundbreaking philosophical work, Kamaruzzaman Bustamam Ahmad bridges the thought-worlds of Henry Corbin and Ibn ‘Arabi to unravel a vision of existence that challenges the very foundations of modern ontology.Modern philosophy, with its focus on objects, language, and abstract principles, often loses touch with the living depth of Being—the mystery behind all manifestation. The Ontology of Tajalli reopens this primordial question, inviting readers to explore the dynamic interplay between unity and multiplicity, substance and relation, transcendence and immanence. Through an illuminating engagement with the Sufi metaphysics of Ibn ‘Arabi and Corbin’s concept of the imaginal realm, this book proposes an ontology of self-disclosure (tajalli) where reality is not a fixed structure, but a continual, inexhaustible event.Discover:Why the question of Being is central to philosophical renewal—and how it has been forgotten in modern thought.How Ibn ‘Arabi’s doctrine of tajalli offers an alternative to substance-based metaphysics, revealing Being as infinite self-manifestation.How the imaginal (mundus imaginalis) becomes a real ontological bridge between the sensible and the intelligible, reshaping our understanding of symbol, imagination, and meaning.The limitations of monism and dualism, and a new grammar for thinking unity and multiplicity as co-original, not opposed.The pivotal role of the human as the mirror and axis of manifestation, grounding a participatory vision of knowledge, selfhood, and the cosmos.Why Corbin’s reading of Ibn ‘Arabi is both revolutionary and open to philosophical deepening—offering new horizons for metaphysics, spirituality, and comparative philosophy.Written with academic rigor yet accessible to non-specialists, The Ontology of Tajalli is essential reading for philosophers, theologians, mystics, and seekers who wish to move beyond the confines of substance and abstraction. It is a dynamic invitation to see reality not as a closed system, but as a living field of disclosure—where thought, Being, and vision meet. Join the dialogue that is reshaping how we understand the deepest structure of existence itself. Read more
