What did Schuon uphold about all divine revelations?

  • They are all false

  • They possess a common essence: one and the same Truth

  • They are all unique revelations

  • Only one is true

Answer

Frithjof Schuon held that all divine revelations possess a common essence: one and the same Truth. This means that they all share a fundamental core of meaning, even if they may express this meaning in different ways. For example, the Christian revelation may speak of God as a loving father, while the Islamic revelation may speak of God as a just and merciful judge.
