World Assembly, who explained the characteristics, different aspects and fruits of materialistic, afterlife-seeking and monotheistic ethical schools.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">About the results of these three moral schools he stated, \u201cThe materialistic ethical school, followed by the Greek philosophers, seeks worldly achievements; the afterlife-seeking school strives to reach heaven and afterlife benefits; while the foundation of the monotheistic ethical school is in achieving the absolute truth and ultimate perfection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cIn the first school, the wisdom of livelihood is developed. That is, by following it, people will have a good life. In the second school, the resurrection wisdom is developed, in which the prophets play a central role. In the third school, love of God is central, and according to it, man does not consider anything other than God,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani continued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe basis of Allameh Tabatabai\u2019s thought was the third school &#8211; that is, monotheistic ethics,\u201d Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly added, \u201cThis basis was derived from the mystical ontology of Allameh which he took from the Holy Quran.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cMonotheistic ethics is based on divine love. In this knowledge, one should seek help from God and see only God in everything, and recognize the will of everything in God\u2019s will,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cAllameh Tabatabai had multidimensional character with \u201cSharia\u201d, \u201cPath\u201d and \u201cTruth\u201d dimensions,\u201d Ayatollah Ramazani added, \u201cHe was a great person with a path, who reached the stage of truth with Sharia. He was a rationalist personality who cultivated his ego to reach the intuition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cAll Allameh\u2019s effort was to adorn himself with divine attributes and to reach the goal of creation, that is, to become the most honored and best of the creatures. In monotheistic ethics, man achieves a deep peace and tranquility in all matters, the thing that human societies need today,\u201d emphasized the Secretary-General of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe most important fruit of monotheistic ethics is peace. The present era is the era of death of the souls. Today, unfortunately, many people are in sulk with themselves, with others, and with God. Reconciliation must begin with oneself, and the late Allameh Tabatabai emphasized this reconciliation with oneself and God,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cEveryone can follow Allameh\u2019s mystical school, and in this world drowned in material things, this school can be a beacon of spirituality in the path to reach God Almighty,\u201d stated Ayatollah Ramazani.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">Also, citing examples of Allameh Tabatabai\u2019s simple life without luxuries, Ayatollah Ramazani considered the life of Allameh a worthy example for those who are seeking for the truth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\"><strong>All religions in India have a spiritual and mystical orientation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">Hojat al-Islam Mahdi Mahdavipour, the representative of Supreme Leader of the Revolution in India, was another speaker of this international conference.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cAll religions in India have spiritual and mystical orientation. India is the land of friends of Allah. All tribes in India are seeking for an ascetic and mystical life. Therefore, it was necessary to study Allameh Tabatabai and his thoughts in this country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\u201cIn India as a \u201cmystic friendly\u201d country, various schools of mysticism are flourishing,\u201d Hojat al-Islam Mahdavipour emphasized.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">By describing the stages of life, and the mystical characteristics of Ayatollah Tabatabai, he considered \u201cthe comprehensiveness of Allamah\u201d important for Indian intellectuals from Muslims, Hindus, to followers of other religions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\"><strong>Presentation of articles and unveiling of books about Allameh Tabatabai<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">At the beginning of this meeting, Mr. Eghtedar Muhammad Khan, the head of the Islamic Studies Department of the National Islamic University of New Delhi, while thanking all those present at the conference, considered the presence of Ayatollah Ramazani and Hojat al-Islam Mahdavipour as an honor for him and the university.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">Also in the conference, a number of Indian professors and scientific figures presented their articles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">At the end of this one-day conference, the books that have been published in recent years with the cooperation of AhlulBayt (a.s.)
