Das Weltrad 6, 7
As such, in their simplicity and directness, these poems may seem like a final mercy, a bit like a last lifeline thrown to us; mercy of a sage whose life and work can only be understood in the sign of giving, of conveying a core of certainty that is the key to happiness in this world and the next.

Frithjof Schuon And The Perennialist School
Foreword to “The Eye of the Heart”
Professor Huston Smith wrote the “Foreword” to the 1997 edition of Frithjof Schuon’s “The Eye of the Heart.” In it, Smith states unequivocally that he considers Schuon to be “the most important religious thinker of our century.” He explains this by pointing to Schuon’s solution to the thorniest issue facing those who believe in absolute Truth: Must there be only one valid Truth embodied in one religious tradition, thus excluding all others, or can there be another way in which absolute Truth can take on relative shadings, and still remain the Truth? Although Smith gives only brief attention to the specific contents of the book, he does summarize his thoughts with this: “Again in this book, as everywhere in Schuon’s writing, one is struck by the hierarchical, vertical character of his thinking — his depiction of an absolute and transcendent Reality that deploys itself through All-Possibility and ultimately returns to Itself through human beings ‘made in the image of God.'”
