Travel Meditations | Many questions arise simply because man lets himself be enticed into the domain where questions lie, instead of keeping firmly to the domain of certainty, If a man is confused by something, he should first of all come back to the certainty that it is not this world as such which is important, but the next world, and above all that God is Reality; and he should say to himself: in the face of this truth, which in principle is the solution to all questions, this or that question just does not arise; it is enough if he has the Answer of answers. And then God will give him a light also for what is earthly and particular. | Studies in Comparative Religion - Vol. 14, Nos. 1 & 2 (Winter-Spring, 1978) | English | comparative-religion multiple | |
The Three Dimensions of Sufism | “FEAR” (makhâfah), “Love” (mahabbah), “Knowledge” (tarîqah): In Sufism (tasawwuf ), these are the three dimensions or stations of the way (tarîqah); “dimensions” from the point of view of their vocational separation or from the point of view of their coincidence in every spiritual vocation, and “stations” from the point of view of their succession in spiritual development. | Studies in Comparative Religion, Vol. 10 No. 1. (Winter 1976) | English | comparative-religion multiple sufism |

Patrick Laude summarizes „the main ideas presented by Schuon on the topic of esoterism, both in his published works and in some of his unpublished texts.“ Laude presents a definintion of „esoterism“ as understood by Schuon, how in Schuon’s work esoterism is viewed as connected with the exoteric religions, the religio perennis,“ and esoterism in the spiritual life.
