In Islamic philosophy, the doctrine of mental existence (al-wujūd al-dhihnī) occupies a fundamental position in metaphysical discourse. Sayyid Ṣadr al-Dīn Muḥammad Dashtakī, a prominent philosopher of the Shiraz school, advanced original perspectives on this subject . Although best known for his theory of the Transformation of Essence (inqilāb al-dhāt), he also proposed significant but less-studied ideas, including a distinctive interpretation of the division of existence (taqsīm al-wujūd) and a denial of mental existence as traditionally conceived, while simultaneously endorsing mental forms (al-taṣawwurāt al-dhihniyya). Beyond its historical significance, analysis of these views elucidates the Transformation of Essence within Dashtakī’s philosophy.
This study employs an analytical-critical method, with special reference to Dashtakī’s glosses on Qūshjī’s Sharḥ al-Tajrīd, to critically examine his position. The findings demonstrate that he rejects mental existence conceived as “the representational being of mental form” a position coherent with his theory of Transformation. For Dashtakī, mental existence is devoid of the essential attributes, concomitants, and causal effects of extra-mental reality. yet, non-representational mental forms may retain their own distinctive quiddities or features.
