Just got this wonderful book of interview reminiscences by Daryush Shayegan (1935-2018) with #RaminJahanbegloo 1/ 
#Shayegan was sent to school in #England after WW2 and then read philosophy, Sanskrit and literature at #Geneva 2/
#Shayegan was close to #Corbin and his life’s account is a wonderful journey in the #intellectual_history of #Iran and its encounter with #Europe 3/
A thread on #IbnArabi in #SouthAsia people consider the main conduit to be the #Chishti Sufis and their ethical principle of #sulh_e_kull which is assumed to be an expression of #wahdatalwujud 1/
first link is the famous poet Fakhr al-Din Iraqi (d. 1289 in Damascus), a disciple and son in law of #BahauddinZakariyya in #Multan later moved to study with Qunawi and was present at Rumi’s funeral in Konya - later commentators on the #Lamaat linked his verses with #IbnArabi 2/
Persian verse was a major conduit for the dissemination of the metaphysics and hermeneutics of #IbnArabi and for the later tradition two key works were prominent 3/
