ABSTRACT

Despite all fundamental divergences, the similarities formed between some interpretations of the later-Wittgenstein’s philosophy of religion and the tradition of Islamic Mysticism (Sufism), can yet be philosophically recognized. These basic analogies are as follows: 1) The inextricability of belief and practice and the priority of practice over knowledge 2) The characterization of the core religious beliefs as the primal ground of man’s perception and understanding, in contrast to the view that considers fundamental religious beliefs as theoretical conclusions derived from purely rational courses of reflection 3) A new practice-laden narrative of religious realism. Given that, one can even shed a new Wittgensteinian light on even the most abstract and metaphysical elements of the mystical worldview. If fundamental religious beliefs are interpreted not as metaphysical doctrines but as a set of descriptions arising from a specific form of practical life, then the ability to see a sort of transcendent and sacred unity in the whole universe will be based on a way of purposive engagement and wayfaring in the natural and social world.

后维特根斯坦宗教哲学与伊斯兰神秘传统的异同

摘要

尽管存在所有根本分歧,但对后期维特根斯坦的宗教哲学和伊斯兰神秘主义(苏菲派)传统的某些解释之间形成的相似之处,仍然可以在哲学上得到承认。这些基本的类比如下: 1) 信仰和实践的不可分割性以及实践优先于知识 2) 将核心宗教信仰描述为人类感知和理解的原始基础,与认为基本宗教信仰不同的观点相反。信仰作为从纯粹理性的反思过程中得出的理论结论 3) 一种新的充满实践的宗教现实主义叙事。鉴于此,人们甚至可以对神​​秘世界观中最抽象和最形而上学的元素提出新的维特根斯坦式的观点。
