You can bring two authors with to the afterlife. Who are they and why is it Evola & Guénon.

The problem with just reading Marxist analysis is that they're obviously biased and they're obviously going to mostly analyze it from the materialist and economic position. This is overly simplistic.

Neoliberalism has transmitted itself into being a cultural project too. The extreme deregulation and deconstruction of community, identity and nature is clearly a socio-political system now - Marxists mostly only analyze from an economic pov.

Also MOST IMPORTANTLY, I said I want to read their actual writings themselves. I want to read what Epstein and Maxwell, or Soros and Janet Jellen and Paul Singer are actually reading philosophy wise.

I don't want to just have my analysis, material and views just handed to me on a plate like a passive Marxist consoomer as you do.

I'm really interested in a lot of this stuff, particularly the sofia perennis in general. I'm yet to read Guénon or Plotinus unfortunately.


Here's a few questions to get the thread started:
> 1. Is it legitimate to say that Neoplatonism and Advaita Vedanta generally share the same theological framework or are their similarities exaggerated?

> 2. How important is it to read the Vedas before I read the Upanishads?

> 3. Is there any justification for vegetarianism (or animal welfare) in advaita or Neoplatonism?

> 4. What would be the political / sociologist implications of AV and Neoplatonism? Reactionary Traditionalism?

5. Why would I want to be released from the eternal rebirth and metempsychosis? Is that not just longing death?
