One side of the world is the finite world, full of contradictions and changes; the other side is the world of infinity and the Over-Soul. Rumi and Emerson shared in their understanding of existence, truth, and human, and have benefited from similar mystical concepts and motifs. These similarities could be the result of either a kind of unity in the intellectual system of human beings in illuminated thoughts, or the calque of opinions of the Eastern thinkers, especially Persian mystic poets, such as Hafiz and Rumi, since Emerson has repeatedly acknowledged in his essays and lectures that he had read their works. In spite of the similarity in their thoughts about the path of human emancipation and perfection, the attitude and epistemology of the transcendental concepts, and the common ontology in the path and the destination of this knowledge, there are differences to observe which their dissimilar results should be mentioned. In this regard, in Rumi&#8217;s epistemology, we need to pay much attention to love, because love is the cause of unity. From this point of view, this Absolute Infinite (God) is distinct from the universe of the creatures and is primordial and eternal; he was before the creation and will be afterwards. In Emerson&#8217;s view, God and Being are not separate from one another.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="es"><p><![CDATA[RESUMEN Existe la esencia única, perfecta, informada e infinita detrás de todos los fenómenos del mundo. Un lado del mundo es el mundo finito, lleno de contradicciones y cambios; El otro lado es el mundo del infinito y el Alma Suprema. Rumi y Emerson compartieron su comprensión de la existencia, la verdad y lo humano, y se han beneficiado de conceptos y motivos místicos similares. Estas similitudes podrían ser el resultado de una especie de unidad en el sistema intelectual de los seres humanos en pensamientos iluminados, o el calco de opiniones de los pensadores orientales, especialmente los poetas místicos persas, como Hafiz y Rumi, ya que Emerson ha reconocido repetidamente en sus ensayos y conferencias de que había leído sus obras. A pesar de la similitud en sus pensamientos sobre el camino de la emancipación y perfección humana, la actitud y la epistemología de los conceptos trascendentales, y la ontología común en el camino y el destino de este conocimiento, existen diferencias para observar cuáles deberían ser sus resultados diferentes. En este sentido, en la epistemología de Rumi, debemos prestar mucha atención al amor, porque el amor es la causa de la unidad. Desde este punto de vista, este Infinito Absoluto (Dios) es distinto del universo de las criaturas y es primordial y eterno; él estuvo antes de la creación y lo estará después. En opinión de Emerson, Dios y el Ser no están separados el uno del otro. Dios, el espíritu del universo, fluye en la naturaleza. La naturaleza es la base de la filosofía de Emerson.]]></p></abstract>
