The purpose of this research is to propose a model for the interpretation of mystical paradoxes from an epistemological perspective. The basis of this model is founded upon the mystics' teleological and transcendental views about man and his existential truth. Based on this, by examining the categories of identity/ becoming, and attainment/ telos, we have explained and analyzed the ability to interpret the mystical paradoxes based on the model of dynamic discourse. The mystic's specific outlooks at the gem of man’s existence and knowing its value has caused his words to take on a kind of abnormality in the eyes of superficial thinkers. However, his passionate paradoxical words and actions are the result of mystic’s belief in the fluid and dynamic nature of his identity, which does not stop going on despite of reaching a certain destination, Indeed, the constant dynamism, becoming and transformation are a part of the nature and truth of his being.
