Human beings possess a fluid existence within which they attain the stages of natural, mineral, vegetative, animal, and human existence, thereby gradually shaping their inner self and essence, based on which they will stand before their Lord in the hereafter. In the science of spiritual wayfaring, the path that a person traverses under divine lordship to actualize his innate potentials is called the ontological straight path. Whereas, the path that one undertakes through free will and volition, whereby advancing through successive spiritual stations under the special lordship, specific mercy and particular guidance of God and actualizing the subtleties of oneself, is called the gnostic straight path. Based on the fluid nature of the self (nafs), the ontological path that a person traverses under divine lordship to realize their innate potentials is none other than their ever-renewing reality. Moreover, if one possesses the capacity for spiritual wayfaring toward God and attaining monotheistic knowledge, it is within this fluid identity that the subtleties of nature, self (nafs), and intellect gradually align with the spiritual path, while the subtleties of the soul (rūḥ), secret, hidden, and most hidden become actualized. Thus, the gnostic straight path unfolds within the framework of the ontological straight path, and the vessel for both is the mode of human existence.
