A Knowledge That Wounds Our Nature: The Message of Frithjof Schuon
This essay’s objective is to “enter … into Schuon’s own perspective, to understand him on his own terms, and to see how he envisions certain crucial ideas” and to explore why Schuon’s work is at once both provocative and inviting to so many readers.
The ‘Preface’ by Seyyed Hossein Nasr to “Dimensions of Islam”
Dr. Seyyed Hossein Nasr uses this “Preface” to explain that Frithjof Schuon’s writings on Islam, in this book as well as in others, is noteworthy for its focus on the “integral message” of the Islamic tradition. Schuon’s analyses are, here as elsewhere, free of academic superficialities, bring to light “the most inward aspect of the Islamic message.”
Signs of the Supra-Sensible: Frithjof Schuon on the Natural Order
Author Prof. Harry Oldmeadow states that the goal of this essay is to “provide a sketch, largely through direct quotation, of a few of the key principles and doctrines which govern Schuon’s understanding of the natural order.” This can assist us, because today we “witness a plethora of writings on the ‘ecological crisis,’ often well-intentioned and sometimes enlivened by partial insights, but fundamentally confused because of an ignorance of timeless metaphysical and cosmological principles. It has been the task of figures such as René Guénon, Ananda Coomaraswamy and Frithjof Schuon, authoritative expositors of the sophia perennis, to remind the modern world of those principles.”
