Hewas the author of more than twenty works in French on metaphysics,spirituality, the religious phenomenon, anthropology andart, which have been translated into English and many other languages. He wasalso a painter and a poet.With René Guénon and Ananda Coomaraswamy, Schuon is recognized asone of the major 20th-century representatives of the philosophia perennis. Like them, heaffirmed the reality of an absolute Principle – God – from which the universeemanates, and maintained that all divine revelations, despite theirdifferences, possess a common essence: one and the same Truth. He also sharedwith them the certitude that man is potentially capable of supra-rationalknowledge, and undertook a sustained critique of the modern mentality severedfrom its traditional roots. Following Plato, Plotinus, Adi Shankara, MeisterEckhart, Ibn Arabī and other metaphysicians, Schuonsought to affirm the metaphysical unity between the Principle and itsmanifestation.
