Guenon's writings are like a crystal that reflect the image of the observer back at them. If you react in a bad way to them, then it simply means that you're a hylic with a stunted spiritual growth. My condolences

How does recover from that? Isn't being a hylic innate and unchangeable? Asking for a friend.

>> No.14456265

>>14456246
Hylic, psychic and pneumatic are really just general states of evolution, and are not hard-coded at all. Each state gradates into the higher.

For example, you even wanting to change you self-declared "hylic" state already suggests you registering higher impulses, so follow them through and see what you'll find.

I suggest reading about the Pythagoreans and the various esoteric traditions like Rinzai Zen that advocate physical hardship. Turns out lifting could help you reach enlightenment.

>Where do you suggest I start?
Iambichus in On the Pythogorean Way of Life describes that the Pythogoreans every day after finishing the lectures and studies in the morning they would turn to physical exercises.
The Rinzai school also apparently forces the monks to do very hard and rigorous exercises such as moving stones or digging and filling the ground. Not sure about other traditions but there seems like a pattern here. Since every genuine esoteric doctrine advocates asceticism and discipline, it makes sense that rigorous physical exercise would also be helpful.

Why would you want your sister to be a pleb? You should try to get her to read good philosophers such as Whitehead, who preemptively refuted Guenon.

Gymcels need to stop spamming the "just lift bro hahah" meme. Lifting slabs or metal off the ground will not solve your deep psychological problems. I am all for self discipline and exercise, but lifting is one of the worst ways to do it. It fosters narcissism and obsession with the transient, ephemeral body. Just look at the average person you see in the gym. Do you honestly think that Gym Bro #13 is some enlightened being? Most people I know that have fallen for the gym meme have become more shallow, debaucherous, and escapist in their lifestyle.
Mountaineering is by far the best physical activity for body and soul, hiking is still very good, and general running is also acceptable. Why someone would go to an industrialized consumerist gym and become another image obsessed zombie is beyond me.

>Most people do X this way, so that means it's bad!
Cringe logic.
Lifting is good for you. Even professional climbers do assistance work at a gym or some form of plyometrics/calisthenics.
Just exercise. Your haranguing is applying to the people, not the act.
