 | | For Professor Seyyed Hossein Nasr, the quest for knowledge, specifically knowledge which enables man to understand the true nature of things and which furthermore, "liberates and delivers him from the fetters and limitations of earthly existence," has been and continues to be the central concern and determinant of his intellectual life. |
 | | Professor Nasr was also a student of Allameh Tabatabaei, a spiritual scholar whose commentary on the Holy Koran Tafsir al-Mizan is widely known as one of the best commnetaries. |
 | | That was when Nasr, Tabatabaei, William Chittick, Kenneth Morgan, Sachiko Murata, Toshihiko Izutsu, and Henry Corbin would meet and hold various philosophical discourses. |
