description God has created human in his own image. Since he is the main subject of creation, scholars of different religions discussed about him and mentioned some of his dimensions. The understanding of these dimensions is essential for the purpose of his creation, namely the perfection. The article studied the viewpoints of two outstanding thinkers of Islam and Hinduism, Ibn Arabi and Shankara, concerning the existential dimensions of human. Both thinkers consider the two physical and spiritual dimensions for human. His spirit is identified with the absolute One and then reaches perfection by removing the veil of material. They believe that the existential dimensions of human are only different in characteristics, but not in the origin of being.
