Abstract

According to the findings of psychology, human identity is founded on his cognitions and values, despite the interactive relationship between behavioral, attitudinal, and cognitive dimensions, the strength of cognitive domain's influence on other domains is such that human beliefs form the essence of their personality. The philosophical basis of this approach can be found in Sadrian philosophy in the principle of "union between the knower and the known and the act of knowing ", which considers human soul to be united with collection of his knowns. In this way, the states and characteristics of the cognitive domain flow in other dimentions. Consequently, the stability and tranquility of the cognitive domain will lead to formation of identity as well as psychological health and well-being. From view of Islamic philosophy, The organize of the cognitive system is through the rationality and following the reasoning. Where as Mulla Sadra considers certain knowledge to be a gift and exclusive to elects, he believes that a level of rationality, which is following conventional rational arguments, is possible for all human beings. The philosophical rationality and its role in identifying is the subject of this article. The hypothesis of this study is that the organizing of epistemic system, including religious worldview, based on philosophical rationality, can play an effective role in identifying and, as a result, mental health and meaningfulness of life.
