AN ANALYSIS OF ÂSIK VEYSEL’S POEM “GOKLERDEN SUZULDUM TERTEMIZ INDIM” IN TERMS OF DEVIR NAZARIYESI (THE THEORY OF TURNING BACK TO GOD)
description Sufism is a significant thought system on which the Islamic world point of view is shaped. Thus, it has mostly influenced the philosophers and artists that have existed in the common Islam civilization. The belief of returning to God that is a significant theory of Sufi system means the leaving of the being from the Absolute Being and lowering on earth and then returning to It. The movement of lowering that holds a significant mission in this system is called kavs-i nüzul, and the returning kavs-i uruç. As the divine light –which experiences this journey forming various levels of being such as cemadat, botanic, fauna and human and playing the role of different natures– includes a circular characteristic, it is named the theory of turning back to God. There is a strict similarity between Sufism, Joseph Campbell’s mythological cycle consisting of threshold, the path of tests and level topics which is mentioned in his work The Hero’s Journey, and Jung’s Archetypal Literary Criticism. Those processes that form a circular characteristic mention the danger of dissolution of human’s conscious, subconscious and unconscious, and the importance of harmony between them. However, those psychic and spiritual processes mean wholeness that is obtained as a result of the struggles of human’s inner and outer powers rather than being essential. We can examine the metaphors of the universal harmony and balance that are observed at the end of the literary works emanating from Sufism and Archetypal Criticism properly to the reality of human being.
