Given the change in our approach to the West and the condition of the contemporary world, it is necessary to take an appropriate stance concomitant with the Islamic values and Iranian-Islamic identity. As the leader, founder and ideologist of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini advanced an approach, which was more or less congruent with our culture. This approach rejects the West on the basis of its main features and such theoretical principles as humanism, materialism, secularism, nationalism, individualism and power-centeredness and in lieu of that introduces the idea of revival of the East and uprising of its peoples against the West by trusting in God and themselves. On the basis of this plan, the West is the sunset of sacred truth and the East the sunrise of truth and manifestation of the divine light. In this plan man returns to his true self, which is divinely and Godly and thus moves towards true perfection and felicity.
