Abstract
The process of aesthetic experience and models designed in relation to this process are amongst the important discussions in the field of teaching aesthetic experience. Many models are designed on the basis of philosophical theories and observing audience behavior and they are founded in the path of intellectual and theoretical enhancement of the audience. Meanwhile, although Islamic philosophers have not clearly addressed the perception of aesthetics and aesthetic experience, however, among their discussions and theoretical perceptions, fundamentals of aesthetics perception can be found. Mulla Sadra is among those philosophers that somewhat discusses this matter in his belief system. The fundamental question is that: According to Mulla Sadra’s intellectual principles and ideology such as levels of perception, substantial motion, mental mode of existence, love and beauty, and the identity of the knower and the known, can we reach an explanation for a model that is in line with aesthetics experience? The purpose of this study is to investigate the process of aesthetics experience and understanding a work of art in the viewpoint of experts in this arena and also to achieve an aesthetics experience model that is derived from Mulla Sadra’s ideology. For this matter, at first, using the inferential analysis method, this study analyzes the different components of aesthetics models and by benefiting from Mulla Sadra’s principles, the aesthetics experience process and its elements such as emotional perception, attention and knowledge, repetitive observance, remembrance and contemplation, imagination and recreation, and identity, are deducted and are compared with other models. In some cases such as repetitive observance, remembrance and contemplation, the model has similar aspects with other models, however, in some cases such as imagination and recreation it has differences.

Abstract
Movement in space is a requirement of architectural perception. Philosophy also considers the factor of movement as a basis for understanding the material world. Mulla Sadra, the founder of transcendental wisdom, by expressing his theory of essential movement, believes that material existence with its constant movement towards rational and abstract existence, by passing through the three worlds (perceptible, imaginary, and sensible) will achieve the understanding of the world. Became. So, the problem of intrinsic movement and perception of space in architecture will be the main topic of this research. The main goal of the present study is to investigate the levels of space perception in the portico of Allah Vardi Khan based on the concept of the essential movement of Mulla Sadra. For this purpose, the levels of perception of space in the portico of Allahvardi Khan have been examined. This is a qualitative and analytical-descriptive research. The research strategy is a case study with an interpretive approach. This article discusses the comparison of movement and perception in philosophy and architecture by analyzing the perceptual experience of the observer in the portico of Allahvardi Khan. The results show that the spatial hierarchy in the portico of Allahvardi Khan, the lack of variety of materials in the interior of the portico, and the human encounter from the entrance to its center lead to the improvement of the sensory perceptions and the spatial experience of the pilgrims from the portico.
