Abstract—The human being’s mission is to seek Kamal
(spiritual completeness), and illness is one of the obstacles that
make it difficult. A patient is so engaged in his illness and its
related issues that he thinks less about God and divine
ambitions, whereas in health, the individual enjoys a better
state in which to deliberate on God and self-awareness.
Mysticism is in itself effective for healing. At times, the
therapeutic intervention is quantitative and involves physicians,
medicine, check-ups, and the like, and at times it is qualitative
with no check-ups or medication. For example, when we pray
for God to heal someone, we are moving towards their
treatment, and if our prayer is granted without quantitative
intervention, we have been engaged in their treatment. This
intervention is not quantitative, and although the process’s
effect may be scientifically studied and observed, it is
considered a qualitative intervention that is extremely effectual
for achieving self-awareness. In a treatment like Faradarmani,
an Iranian complementary and alternative medicine founded by
Mohammad Ali Taheri, the individual becomes pragmatically
familiar with Interuniversal Consciousness, and this experience
is a turning-point that moves him towards the source of this
consciousness. Thus, Faradarmani can mark the beginning of
mysticism.
Index Terms—Faradarmani, halqeh mysticism, healing,
inspiration, interuniversal consciousness.
