For me? It’s Guenon (Pbuh)

I had a dream last night where I was reading Guenon and pondering his teachings. Whilst this was happening, a great tsunami, 10,000 feet high, rose from the ocean and began to demolish everything in its path. I however, was protected. I sat upon a large stone statue head of Shankaracharya, and an orb of energy shielded me. After the destruction, I moved around to survey the damage, in a serpentine manner, akin to the snake who gave Gnosis to Adam and Eve. Several minutes had gone by, I suddenly was struck to the ground and a swarm of bees attacked me. Great Mother Gaia had assaulted me with hundreds of bee stings. I felt intense pain, and slowly, my body began to numb, and right before my death I awoke.

I believe this dream was my intuition, my spirt, speaking to me. It was alerting me that Guenon is only the beginning; it is Evola, rather, who completed the Perennial Philosophy.

René-Jean-Marie-Joseph Guénon (French: [ʁəne ʒan maʁi ʒozɛf ɡenɔ̃]; 15 November 1886 – 7 January 1951), also known as ʿAbd al-Wāḥid Yaḥyá (Arabic: عبد الواحد يحيى) after his conversion to Islam, was a French author and intellectual who remains an influential figure in the domain of metaphysics, having written on topics ranging from sacred science and traditional studies, to symbolism and initiation.

He wrote and published in French, and his works have been translated into more than twenty languages. He is considered to be an important writer in the Traditionalist School of philosophy. Guénon's philosophy had a "charismatic impact" on Traditionalist authors.

Guénon: Retroactive Refutation against the World

Shouldnt i read the hindu doctrines straight from the source, not his interpretation?

Just look at this man, it's very obvious that he stinks like shit. There is no way you can have this physiognomy and not stink like a festering asshole.
This one simple experiment leaves Guenon utterly BTFO.
>Imagine the smell.

What would Guenon have said about the ritual murder of Chistian children by Jews throughout the medieval and early-modern era as documented by the Isreali historian Ariel Toaff in his ground-breaking book, 'Bloody Passover'?

What did Rene Guenon say about Gnosticism, Neoplatonism and Hermeticism? Ive recently started reading Guenon and really like his work, he's basically saying everything I have been thinking for ages.

Although he shills eastern esoterism pretty hard, Western Neoplatonism and Gnosticism seem strangely absent from his work.
I have heard someone here say that he was critical both of Neoplatonism and Gnosticism, although Guenon himself had never read the Enneads and the Nag Hammadi texts hadn't been translated during his lifetime.

What specifically did he say about these esoteric schools of thought? are they reconcilable with the Guenonian worldview?

Who else here is a Guenonian Muslim Traditionalist spiritual racist carnivore primative Fascist?

Is there value in reading Guenon from a Christian perspective? He is supportive of Christianity but only from an esoteric traditionalist perspective

Is Guenon inherently heretical and dangerous in terms of perverting the readers biblical theology?

>Besides abusive parents at the one end of the parent-child sexual relations continuum, parents at the other end of the continuum who think that withholding sexual expression is damaging sometimes exhibit a passion to instruct. Among them are persons who claim to practice family sexual expression in a highly educated, sophisticated, and carefully responsible manner. Such persons receive impetus from the writings of Rene Guyon (The Ethics of Sexual Acts, 1934) and others. The following cases are characteristic of such families.


>Their daughter was disturbed by her mother's agitation and breathing during intercourse. She otherwise seemed happy with being with her parents as they made love. Her mother explained the whole thing very carefully one day. Her daughter then said "I want to make love with you, mommy." At first her mother didn't know what to do and then decided to go along as long as her daughter seemed OK. She put her hand on her daughter's genitals and suggested that her daughter put hers on top, showing her mother how it felt best. Her daughter started moving rhythmically and breathing heavily, exactly as she had seen her mother do. Her motion and breathing gradually built up to a climax and she relaxed. Whether she actually reached orgasm or mimicked it is uncertain. She was happy and thanked her mother. (Personal correspondence)

>Daughter was about 3 years old. One morning she came in on her parents having intercourse. This was her first exposure to it and her parents could see she was confused and disturbed. As they described it, they "sent out good vibrations" making their enjoyment obvious. They included her in their lovemaking by holding her and talking with her. She responded positively and showed no further negative reactions then or later to her parents' lovemaking. (Personal correspondence)

>A number of advocacy groups had some degree of notoriety in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s when there was interest in what was called child liberation. The Sexual Freedom League advocated sexual activity between children, but not transgenerational sex. The Rene Guyon Society advocated both child-child and child-adult sexual intimacy
