Anthropomorphism: Scientific Analysis and Correction of Common Misconceptions
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article provides a multidisciplinary exploration of anthropomorphism—the attribution of human traits to non-human entities—across Eastern and Western traditions. It examines cultural, literary, and philosophical dimensions, comparing the metaphorical use of animal characteristics in Iranian literature with the reverse approach often seen in Western media. Central to the analysis is the ancient text Kalila wa Dimna, its possible authorship by Burzoe, and its cross-cultural legacy. The article introduces novel scientific perspectives based on the teachings of Ostad Elahi, including the hypothesis of “Quantomagnetics” traits, suggesting that human instincts may originate from animal characteristics through a quantum-biological process. Additionally, the concept of Integrated Sciences, coined by the article’s author, Faramarz Tabesh, is introduced as a new framework aiming to unify science, philosophy, and spirituality. The article highlights the potential of these ideas to reshape understanding in fields such as psychology, medicine, and ethics.
