Philip Sherrard absolutely BTFOed guénonian and schuonian circular rationalist metaphysics.

For the critique of guénonian metaphysics check the essay named Christianity and the Metaphysics of Logic from here: https://mikrotheos.blogspot.com/2011/09/blog-post_25.html?m=1

For the critique of Schuon's false understanding of the Trinity (I am assuming this was the reason for the essay) check out this one: http://www.studiesincomparativereligion.com/public/articles/Logic_and_the_Absolute_Platonic_and_Christian_Views-by_Philip_Sherrard.aspx

Sherrard is based.
Few people know him though, although they should.

Orthodoxy is a de facto ethnoreligion. These guys put in a ton of legwork to defend their tradition, but the patriarchs will never respect them because they aren't from the right ethnic group.

nothing much it's exactly what you expect to hear from a western academic, his job is to lose his sleep for 40-50 lives over differences and autistic minutiae because that's his life, his humanistic hyperspecialized point of view requires him to think this way otherwise he'd have nothing to talk about, there's not even a metaphysical basis for the two points of view to even communicate

tl; dr focusing on the similarities is not the fun or easy part, perennialism bad because they are "superficial"

>For the doctrinal masters of this tradition, the supreme principle of the metaphysical order is not the undetermined and the personal infinite, as it is for Guénon. The supreme principle is the Trinity.

I went through a Guenon phase in my late teens.
