The principle of "substantial movement" in transcendental theosophy and the discussion of "renewal of essences" in theoretical mysticism are two important philosophical and mystical ontological doctrines. Based on these two principles, beings are constantly evolving and changing; the world does not stand still for a moment and is constantly changing. According to mystical renewal essences, even though the existence has an intrinsic unity, it changes every moment and no creature or phenomenon is repeated. The discovery of this problem for the mystic is through conscientious findings and intuitive knowledge. Based on Sadra's philosophy, the substantial movement which is proved through theory and arguments, is limited to the material world and indicates its essence and movement, which ends in the world of fixed abstractions. Of course, according on another viewpoint, which is based on a certain image of the originality and the gradation of being, the movement outlined in transcendental theosophy corresponds to the mystical findings and explains it in the field of theoretical understanding. In this article, "substantial movement" and "renewal of essences" are compared and an attempt has been made to express their similarities and differences. The true understanding of these two important philosophical and mystical rules opens the way for important issues in ontology, origin and resurrection, cosmology and psychology.
