>Rene Guenon - Man and his Becoming according to the Vedanta

How are you finding that? I've heard it's one of his more difficult works. What did you read before hand? I'm 2/3 of the way through the Bhagavad Gita atm and I plan on reading Studies in Hinduism by Guenon next.

take the traditionalist/metaphyiscal pill

metaphysics will give you a sense of certainty you never knew before

>"It is also an important consideration for these philosophers to be able to put their name to a ‘system’, that is, to a strictly limited and circumscribed set of theories, which shall belong to them and be exclusively their creation; hence the desire to be original at all costs, even if truth should have to be sacrificed to this ‘originality’: a philosopher’s renown is increased more by inventing a new error than by repeating a truth that has already been expressed by others. This form of individualism, the begetter of so many ‘systems’ that contradict one another even when they are not contradictory in themselves, is to be found also among modern scholars and artists; but it is perhaps in philosophy that the intellectual anarchy to which it inevitably gives rise is most apparent."

Unironically this. To cure atheism one should read Guenon, Evola and Eliade. Optionally, he may read Titus Burckhardt, Schuon, Coomaraswamy, Mark Sedgwick and Dugin.
