>Guenon is fucking retarded and believes in the existence of a Self and a ground for reality on the basis of revealed noesis, this is incompatible with every single non-heterodox sect of buddhism

No it's not you pseud, every description of Nirvana Buddha gave in the authentic discourses also applies to Nirguna Brahman, Buddha quite obviously took most of his ideas from the Upanishads which predated him, either directly or indirectly from hearing various teachers discuss the ideas contained in them. Buddha never denied Atma but everything he denied describing the contingent aspects of being, the non-Atma, the Hindu figures he argues against never stated non-dualism but always argued for the continuation of the personality (non-Atma) which Buddha rightfully denied. Noesis is the wrong world since it implies activity and Brahman is unchanging and without activity but even going on the meaning you suggest many of the most important Chinese and Tibetan Mahayana texts have all sorts of ideas they expound which involve the same thing.
