Haram = what I dislike
Halal = what I like
This image is halal, now shut up

You'll go to Hell, murtad.

>>18487238
Hell = where people which I dislike go

>>18487245
You are afraid.

>>18487249
I am not but you should be

>>18487282
You are afraid, murtad.

>>18487307
Allah will crush you murtad

>>18487310
You'll go to Hell, murtad.

>>18487321
Allah will destroy you, Murtad
I am foremost among friends of Allah, He loves me

>>18487334
You are afraid, murtad.
Allah will crush you.

>>18487370
Allah will only crush me with the all-enveloping love of his warm embrace

You, murtad, on the other hand, will be crushed by his wrath and cast into the fiery pits of hell

>>18487379
You are afraid.
You'll go to Hell, murtad.

Brothers.... I coomed onto a picture of Guenon (pbuh)...
I contemplated and an evil force tried to subvert me.... How do I protect myself and repent from this grave sin?..

>>18487414
Allah will obliterate you, Murtad

>Mr. Fawzi Sqali (a Budshishi muqaddam in Maroc) explained23: “Traditionalism is one expression of spiritual truth but is not in any way a spiritual path.” In his view it is confused with a spiritual path “only by those who have insufficient spiritual experience, who have not properly encountered a real spiritual path.” Sqali argues that it is not only the works of Guénon that present the risk of being taken for the definitive spiritual doctrine, that even Ibn al-Arabi can (but should not) be taken in this way. In his view, to take any single corpus as a definitive doctrine is incompatible with Sunni Islam; “the definitive guide is the shaykh.[*]”
>[*] This means that the determining spiritual leader is the shaykh and in reality Prophet Muhammad Mhmd sallAllahu `aleihi wa sallam.

Traditionalism is a philosophy of religion first and foremost, and should be never confused as a spiritual path. Guenonfag perennially BTFO. How will he and his cronies ever recover?

>>18487417
>How do I protect myself and repent from this grave sin?..
Remember and focus on the fact that the non-dual Ātmā, your own consciousness, is what alone is real and that nothing can harm you, for you are the ultimate reality which sustains all things, the only things which can be harmed are the objects appearing within the span of your space-like non-dual eternal and infinite awareness.

Pure and changeless consciousness I am by nature, devoid of objects to illumine…
Beginningless and devoid of attributes, I have neither actions nor their results…
Though in a body, I do not get attached on account of my subtleness, like space
which, though all pervading, does not get tainted.
- Sri Shankaracharya

>>18487418
You are afraid, murtad.

>>18487433
>Guenonfag perennially BTFO
We never said it was a spiritual path to begin with, Guenon is the lighthouse that guides us to take up existing spiritual path

>>18487086
>How many Guenon threads do you want to make at the same time?
>Guenonfaggot: Yes

>>18487455
Allah will poop on your face, murtad. You fear his greasy hot steaming turds.

Currently reading crisis of the modern world. Comfy and insightful, I’m a big fan. What do read next?

Will guenon make a comeback in the mainstream you guys think?

>>18487479
>Comfy and insightful,
based fellow Guenon-appreciator, if only everyone could see the same value and also agree with him, the world would be a better place
>I’m a big fan. What do read next?
Either his first book if you haven't yet, or if you want more of his treatment of modernity and the west, read 'East and West' and 'Reign of Quantity and the Signs of the Times'

or, if you want to get in his metaphysical works that deal with matters of the spirit, read these in the following order

1) Man and His Becoming According to the Vedanta
2) Symbolism of the Cross
3) Multiple States of the Being

>Will guenon make a comeback in the mainstream you guys think?
There seems to be signs of that, he is coming up in articles more and more, he is already pretty well-known in both France and Muslim countries. Evola is already well-known among the right-wing twittersphere of 20-somethings, and its a short jump from there to Guenon

>>18487086

>>18487861
It has a mustache, just like Rene

>>18487086
pbuh

>>18487086
I beliver Guenon is in heaven or purifying in an intermediate state on his way to heaven

>>18487458
So why even say "Guenon pbuh" as if he's a spiritual authority who's on par with the Prophets that delivered God's revelation? It's mockery and caricature that makes it counter-traditional.

>>18488502
we are just joking

>>18488502
Muslims won't be saying pbuh, but Christians and other believers will as a funny running gag, a meme if you will

>>18487086
He retroactively refuted millions...

mods asleep

post your cutest guenons

>>18488509
>>18488518
Spirituality and the fate of your soul are not things that should be joked about.

>>18488502
>>18488509
>>18488518
Rene Guenon (PBUH) must always be respected

>>18488652
The fate of our souls depends on Christ, ultimately, not Guenon or mohammad and their ideas

>>18487086
I've been absent for some time -- when did he emerge as a /lit/ regular? I feel like the zeitgeist is summoning certain figures to our era or maybe it's just that I'm paying attention now.

>>18488691
This x100

>>18488714
>I've been absent for some time
lying new fag. Guenon has been the patron saint of /lit/ for years

>>18488726
No way were there this many threads about him a year ago. No way. It was still DFW and Pynchon.

>>18488733
check the archives newfag, if you even know what those are

>>18488733
>a year ago

>>18488502
He is an autority on spiritual matters, not a definitive one though, and we wish him peace and wish to share his peace.
May he make it rain upon us.

>>18488502
He can be revered as a saint

>>18488502
this post is why sandniggers shouldn't be allowed to use the same internet as the white man

>>18488733
ur a newfag, early 2020 was peak guenonposting

>>18488589
What happened to Guenonposting? It was fun last year when everyone was clowning around with larp contemplation, retroactively refuted, Eleatic school etc. pastas. From what I’ve seen people are taking it more seriously now.

>>18489032
we memed it into reality

Why do I have to see this hideous fucking picture every time I visit this board?

>>18489061
post pic of yourself

>>18489076

>>18487086
What was an average day like for Guenon in Egypt? Do we know how he practiced and what he was like there?

>>18489367

okay guénonposter

What is a murtard?

>>18492647
it means ex-muslim

>>18492647
It means apostate, a Muslim who don't follow the rules of Islam, 100% of Muslims in fact.

Reminder that Sunnism is the true sect of Islam and any deviation from that is degnerate larping, syptomatic of the end times

>>18492937
All flavours of Islam are degenerate. All of them.
Not following Islam is what Muslims do the best, and with so much passion...

>>18492937
>any deviation from
Any deviation from any form of Islam will meet no consequences because Muslims are too busy obeying the Infidels and don't care about Allah anymore.

>>18492647
Its short for "american retard"

>>18488502
Why not wish for peace upon all people? Peace be upon even (You), my brother
