Abstract

The aim of this paper is to re-introduce the principles of a socially trained human in a rational life in the views held by the great scholar, Mohammad Taghi Jafari. In this study, we applied a descriptive-analytical method with an approach of qualitative. Following the review of the accessible sources, the results showed that a socially trained human in a rational life must have the following characteristics: sublimated emotions due to the training of the mind, genuine and rational expressions of affection, stimulating hopes, efforts in achieving perfection and good, harmony between a sensible intelligence and a realistic conscientious, a sublimed freedom, an understanding of lofty unity of humanity, equality of humans (egalitarianism) in being the aim or the means, in their thoughts and in avoiding any blind imitation. Based on these characteristics in educating humans, we must consider the following principles: the principle of cooperation, principle of freedom, principle of rationalism, principle of balance between rationalities and emotions, principle of non-materialism, principle of affection and finally principle of fairness.
