Self-education is: addressing oneself, shaping and directing vital activities, correcting the motivations, and considering the ultimate destination and orientation of activities for God. Accordingly, in this article, by following the language of revelation and sacred religious law, the grace and mercy of God is introduced as the most important element of cultivation and education; but the main responsible in self-purification and soul-education is the human being himself. Man hears the spiritual diseases and illnesses from the language of the revelation and the sacred religious law, but the one who ultimately has to find out his illness and take special medicine is man himself. In this regard, we have examined the elements of individual responsibility, the ability to sustain and the faith in the liberty of people, the areas of jihad, and the self-purification and of tools such as repentance, believing in God as the observer and shortening the dreams that helps people to educate themselves. We have used the library and documentary method in this research.
