>If we consider German philosophy, we only find in it hypotheses and systems with metaphysical pretensions, deductions from a fanciful starting point, ideas which might seem to be profound when they are simply nebulous; and this pseudo-metaphysics, which is everything that is farthest from true metaphysics, the Germans claim to find in others, whose conceptions they always interpret according to their own.

He claims to love Guenon but supports counter initiation. How is this not a betrayal of Guenon's teachings?

And if it's bad, then why does it still happen? You'd think that after eons of spiritual practice, people would learn their lesson, like a toddler learning not to touch a hot stove. Where's the appeal of counter-initiation?

Why did Guénon never speak of the Rothschild, Adam Weishput or Jacob Frank and John Dee connection...
For example why is theosophy counter tradition but free masonry is not?

Why did Guénon like freemasonry? It seems counter initiation.

How do we reconcile two of the greatest minds of the twentieth century - Rene Guenon and Heidegger

Bataille famously mocked Guenon for not having read Heidegger. So how are we to synthesise the two?

I have come to realise the absolute importance of Plato for the Western Metaphysical Tradition, however i've noticed Guenon and Evola don't really seem to emphasise Plato. Guenon in particular seems to eschew the Greeks not really considering them as all that profound and even a precursor to western rationalism.
I guess in essence I'm curious with regard to your thoughts of where Platonism lies with the Traditionalist world view, it seems underemphasised by Evola and Guenon.

Thoughts?

Going to join the Cistercians would Guénon PBUH approve?

I’m just a pleb so I figured this is the best outlet for me as a degenerate Western European. Catholicism is my vehicle I know it’s not perfect but I figured it’s the best I can get here.

As between all the more or less incoherent things that are today in constant agitation and mutual collision, as between all external 'movements' of whatever kind they may be, there is no occasion to ~take sides', to use the common expression, whether from a traditional or from a merely 'traditionalist' point of view, for to do so is to become a dupe. Since the same influences are really operating behind all these things, it is really playing their game to join in the struggles promoted and directed by them; therefore the mere fact of 'taking sides' under such conditions is necessarily to adopt, however unwittingly, a truly anti-traditional attitude. No particular applications need be specified here, but it must at least be made clear in a general way that in all this agitation principles are always and everywhere lacking, despite the fact that 'principles' have surely never been so much talked about as they are today on all sides, the word being commonly applied more or less regardlessly to things that are least worthy of it, and sometimes even to things that imply the negation of all true principle. This particular misuse of a word is again highly significant of the real trend of the falsification of language already well exemplified by the perversion of the word 'tradition'.
