Abstract
Virtual networks and communication technologies of the modern era have had a profound impact on human lifestyles. Despite the many benefits of this emerging ecosystem, the sense of anxiety and loneliness, and consequently the senselessness of the results of the wrong way to use this space and not to use it in a meaningful way, is meaningful. One of the factors behind the formation of nonsense and nihilism is the development of science and technology and a mechanical world-view far from spiritual that can negate the end of existence and the global formation of no spiritual aspirations, meaninglessness of life and futility; Virtual can provide the ground for such nonsense. The main question of this paper is whether one can have a meaningful and meaningful exposure to the phenomenon of cyberspace by relying on the views of philosophers such as Mulla Sadra, who have spoken of the rich and meaningful life. The findings of the present study indicate that: Despite the special advantages and disadvantages of cyberspace, this space can cause unusual behavior patterns in humans. The author's inference from the themes of transcendent wisdom is that the best way to deal with such damages is to have a rationalist approach to this man-made atmosphere and to express the function of reason in the mass of information and data.
