It is great to speak and meditate upon the master.
Guénon advocated for capital-T Tradition. He maintained that all authentic world religions, despite their exterior differences, had a common metaphysical core (Introduction to the Study of Hindu Doctrines), excluding pseudo-spiritual and new age cults (Theosophy: History of a Pseudo-Religion, The Spiritist Fallacy). In traditional societies, you could gain access to this knowledge as well as access to higher states of being (Multiple States of the Being, Man and His Becoming According to the Vedanta) through initiation (Perspectives on Initiation). But Western Society had been undergoing a long process of degeneration and had all but lost contact with the Tradition (The Crisis of the Modern World, Reign of Quantity and the Signs of Times). Only the East had retained it (East and West). He eventually converted to Islam where he got initiated into Sufism.
