history has no meaning
only life has meaning

How do I know where I stand on philosophy of mind? I've read Descartes, Leibniz, Kant and still have no clue

Yes.
Read it as poetry (as Spengler intended)

>"If... nothing else, it would still be one of the world's great Romantic poems"
-Frye

Reading it like this completely changed my way of understanding it. There are sections of it that I go back and re-read because they are so poetic and have a lyrical quality. I'm not a Christian but Spengler's section on the figure of Jesus is beautiful.

Don't read it as "hard history" or something objective. As other anon said, some of Spengler's claims are based on: "Source? its just true bro" logic
