What are the different types of pleasure? How can we reach the higher and greater pleasure? Concise answer Man has always lived with both pleasure and pain; he has invariably rejoiced one thing while suffering from another. Still ethics play a great role in moderating these feelings. It is within an ethical criteria that these feelings can be controlled by distinguishing which pleasure is moral and which is immoral and avoiding the immoral pleasures. There are many types and groups of pleasures, but in a particular categorization, we can divide pleasure into the following types: 1- sensual pleasure 2- illusionary pleasure 3- intellectual pleasure 4- mystical (spiritual) pleasure. The rank of different pleasures in one’s eyes differ from person to person contingent upon his world-view. A mumin (believer) conceives the greatest pleasure to be acquiring God’s absolute satisfaction even if he has to endure harsh and severe physical conditions along the way. This level of sheer pleasure can be achieved by allowing the soul to govern the body and the physical side of our entity. Detailed Answer shiastudies.net/portal/en/faq/post/2487
