THE MAIN DIRECTIONS OF SPIRITUAL PERFECTION IN EASTERN PHILOSOPHY
Mahmudjon Negmatjanovich Shadimetov ,Abstract
This article provides a philosophical and scholarly analysis of the main directions in the formation and development of the concept of spiritual perfection in Eastern philosophy. The study examines Sufism, Islamic philosophy, the philosophical heritage of Eastern thinkers, and their views on spiritual perfection through the concept of the Perfect Human (al-Insān al-Kāmil). The findings demonstrate that the theoretical foundations of spiritual perfection developed within the Eastern philosophical tradition possess significant methodological value for contemporary spiritual and moral development and for the formation of a harmoniously developed personality.
