Online lecture series by Schuonians

A new lecture series entitled the “Schuon Lectures” is available online.

In 2025 they will be delivered by Harry Oldmeadow, formerly of La Trobe University Bendigo, Australia, author of Traditionalism: Religion in the light of the Perennial Philosophy (2000) and Journeys East: 20th Century Western Encounters with Eastern Religious Traditions (2004). Other Schuonian speakers are planned for later years: M. Ali Lakhani (2026), Michael Oren Fitzgerald (2027), and Patrick D. Laude (2028).

Oldmeadow’s lectures will be on:

  • The Rhythms of Time and Traces of Primordiality (Primordial Worlds) 
  • Revealed Tradition as Mediator between Time and Eternity (Traditional Worlds) 
  • Signs of the Times: The Reign of Scientism, Evolutionism and ‘Progress’ (The Modern World) 
  • Metaphysics and the Spiritual Life (The Eternal Present) 
As well as the lectures, the website offers networking: “Expand your professional network and connect with leading scholars and thinkers in philosophy and theology. Schuon Lecture series provides a platform for networking and collaboration, allowing you to engage with experts from different backgrounds and disciplines.”
