Great post, lots of info here. I wish I knew enough to even have a dialog.

The idea of emanations, a hierarchy of being on into the absolute, virtues as forms beyond nature, plus its relation to the prototypical figure of western philosophy, Plato, makes it appear very fruitful.

Guenon approved of it. It had a massive impact on the Christian tradition, which I also enjoy. I've been wanting to dig into Borella once I've a better grasp of Guenon.

The whole Orphic, Pythagorean, Platonic, Neoplatonic chain is also fantastically evocative. Plus it's a nice counter to the heavily eastern aspects of traditionalism that turn some away.

The platonic virtues, along with stoicism, also gives my resolve against weakness.

Vigilance against syncretism, trad approved.

Rene Guenon provided many valuable writings in regards to Christian esotericism with this book and the Esotericism of Dante
