>leave blavatsky to me

why does he think the esoteric metaphysics of judaism, christianity, islam, mahayana buddhism, hinduism, daoism, etc. have all remained unchanged, are identical to each other, and can only be taught through initiation?
before you tell me to go read his books, i already have but can't answer these questions. maybe im a brainlet, but help out if you can

>psychedelic literature

You're a cool dude, op

>metaphysics are timeless
>metaphysics stand outside of discursive thought
>traditional societies are rooted in metaphysics
>???
>you have to be initiated in a traditional society to be enlightened

why does guenon feel initiation is required and that the metaphysics of all traditional societies are equivalent?

Who's stronger : Evola or Guenon?

>initiation

hello, im max stirner

what a retard, how can you mix Guenon with anybody else in that list, he literally wrote a book called "Theosophy: History of a Pseudo-Religion"

look at his beautiful elongated face and repent

>>10312033
Guenon said the Egyptians were pretty cool, and classical greece was "part of the problem". and look at his fucking beautiful elongated lion face, how could you say no to him?

>>10293163
how is not guenon and his elongated cat face a meme instead of evola? also what do when only meme iniatiatic organizations remain in the west?

wait, guenon became a sufi? lol

Why wasn't I warned that he was muslim?

Fortunately for Right-wingers they've got a back up plan.

Tell me more about rene guenon

Jesus Christ. Why are Rene Guénon and Evola such windbags?
They aren't even trying to be poetic, they just draw out their damn points for pages.
I could sum up the entirity of The Reign of Quantity, look
"By Quality and Quantity, I basically mean immaterial and material. Modern society, with it's Scientism and Social Progressivism has put such an amount of emphasis on the material that it's almost the apocalypse. We need to focus on Metaphysical Concepts nao."

I would understand if they were trying to be poetic. I would understand if they're trying to tell a story along with it. But they're just drawing out their sentences like a lazy college student trying to write an essay.

Hey /lit/, recommend me some other authors like Guénon, Evola, Commaraswamy, etc.
