Sustainable Spiritual Development and Education through Wisdom

Povzetek

Our research aims to activate spiritual education and teaching based on the principle of wisdom, in order to restore humanity’s primordial state in which the worldly environment is sacred and where the material and the spiritual are balanced. This entails moving from the truncated human being (disconnected from the Truth), as described by the philosopher Taha Abderrahmane, toward what Islamic Sufism calls the “Perfect Human” (al-insān al-kāmil), who preserves the cosmic and human equilibrium by means of a sustainable temporality of spiritual education, transmitted across generations through the perennial wisdom inherited from the ancients and still preserved in the hearts of the friends of the Merciful and the people of remembrance firmly grounded in divine knowledge. The motivation behind this topic stems from the ossification of modern educational curricula, which cultivate only archival memory and repetitive reasoning without either a definitive divine sign or a creative wisdom. Thus, education has lost not only its ascensional function (connection with higher spiritual stations) but also, almost entirely, its cognitive and formative function—especially today, in the face of the wave of artificial intelligence. If not guided by wisdom, AI may generate what could be called a “delegated mind” or “proxy intellect.”
