Abstract
This article on Mulla Sadra's philosophy seeks to answer the question: Where is the place of God in human life according to the theory of existential expansion? According to Mulla Sadra, the foundation of creation is the manifestation and existential vastness of a single and absolute existence. Caused (Ma'alool) is abstracted from existential expanded ranks and has no independence. According to Sadra, the life of any creature is how it exists; Because life is the existence of an object in such a way that actions are issued from it. In other words, the stronger his perception, the stronger his life, and the higher his level of existence. Existence is one and non-existence is non-existence, and all beings exist in the existential circle of expanded existence; Therefore, by analyzing Mulla Sadra's view, it can be concluded that God is present in every moment of human life, and because human perceptions are different, the manifestation of God in their existence is also different. In this view, God's activity is not longitudinal but vast action. The present article, with a descriptive-analytical view, seeks to examine the position of God with the view of the expansion existential in human life.
