According to the transcendent philosophy, man`s spirit habits origin in the body, the spirit is joined to the body and the body is lower to the rank than the spirit. The physical body- that is one of the ranks of man`s degree of existence- and material world- that embraces man`s existence- have prepared the grounds for the corporeality and materiality of man`s existence. Therefore; unless human develops his capacities in line with theoretical intellect and experimental intellect by working hard and holding on to the divine religion. His or her pursuit of perfection will end in the stage of sensation and imagination. According to Mulla Sadra only a few people will reach the stage of intellectual revolution. Sensation and imagination are the standpoint of most people`s perfection. Using an analytical-descriptive method and an ontological approach, the present paper aims at analyzing the process of greatness or secularism of the human by an ontological approach. Philosophical research works, Quranic verses, Infallibles` narrations, earlier studies and historical experiences show that exalted and heavenly people are in majority and secularists and worldly people are in minority.
