During the meeting, he highlighted the need to strengthen the foundations of knowledge of students and student associations, saying that young students should study and ponder over knowledge-related issues using the Holy Quran, Nahj al-Balagha and the books of thinkers such as Martyr Motahari, Martyr Beheshti and the late Ayatollah Mesbah-Yazdi.
Describing "justice" as one of the foundations of knowledge, Imam Khamenei said, "An important example of justice is the elimination of inequality, but the wide scope of justice starts from the mind, heart, opinion, and personal judgments, and it leads to the fight against Arrogant Powers for international justice. Unfortunately, however, some chant the slogan of seeking justice but do not regard the fight against global aggressors as an example of seeking justice."
He also referred to "freedom" as another foundation of knowledge and explained that in Islam’s view, "freedom from the material framework and desires" is the most important part of the subject of freedom, which paves the way for progress and excellence as well as freedom from the shackles of rigidity, backwardness, nervousness, reactionism, superpowers, dictators and so on.
