>I despise the phenomena and conditioned world in some ways, an absolute searing hatred depending on the object/concept, but I wouldn't wish to cease experiencing it at least in part.
Then don't. Just know that life is shit for most people, more than not. To stick around and help the rest of the world up - this we call the Bodhisattva path. And if that's what you decide to do, it will be embraced.

Perennialists such as Coomaraswamy and Schuon have stated (in books) that Buddhism is compatable with the perennial truth, but are there many perennialists who have themselves become Buddhists?
I have come to the conclusion that the doctrine of anatta is mere apophatism, not a metaphysical doctrine of no-self. With this understanding, is it worthwhile still becoming a Buddhist, seeing as many schools would reject such a statement, or would it be better to join another tradition? I was thinking of adopting a Zen and possibly Pure Land practice, but wonder if my views on core buddhist doctrine would make this not worth my while. I think I may resonate with Buddhism, but is this reconcilable with my views on anatta? I can't get on board with the categorical denial of the self (in whatever form that may be).

Would a Buddhist teacher and community accept a student with these views?

Any good recs for books or material from buddhists/ buddhist perennialists with this view?
