Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Self Building Nourishment and Perfection of Self (Tahliyeh) Having cleaned and refined the self a wayfarer is ready for the next stage known as training and perfection of self ( Tahliyeh ). The logical sciences have confirmed that the human self is in the state of motion and growth gradually manifesting his hidden potentials. In the beginning the self is not complete and perfect, rather gradually develops his essence.

If, he travels on the straight path gradually becomes perfect, eventually attaining his ultimate-perfection. But if deviates and selects the wrong course gradually takes distance from the ultimate human perfection, thus, eventually crashing into dark valleys of ignorance and brutality. God's Nearness It should be understood that human movement is a real one and is not a figurative thing; this movement is related to his Celestial Spirit and not to his body.

Also, this movement takes place within his inner essence and is not an external phenomenon. In this movement his precious jewel of human essence moves and becomes metamorphosed. Therefore, the axis of human movement is also a real axis and is not something metaphorical, but the axis of movement is not separate from the mover’s essence, rather the mover moves within his inner essence carrying the axis of movement along with him. Now the question arises that every movement carries some goal.

Therefore, the human beings in the world are moving towards which objective and what is going to be their eventual fate? The traditions and Qur’anic verses reveal that the ultimate objective or goal destined for human beings is God's Nearness, but all human beings do not travel on the straight path and do not attain the exalted position of God's-Nearness.

And the foremost in the race, the foremost in the race: Those are they who will be brought nigh, in gardens of delight.
