Traditionalism with a capital T
so, LARPing?
It's more common than you'd think. A lot of French people have been fascinated by Islam the same way a lot of Americans have been fascinated by American Indian spirituality.
So he was just informed by his country's orientalism? Got it.
No dumbass, he was informed by studying primary sources in their own language while also being personally initiated into Taoism and two different Sufi lineages.
>he was informed by studying primary sources
Like that fat chick that goes on a couple of sub1000m day hikes so hiking is now her passion and gets a copywriter job advising you on which boots to buy.
You are deranged. Genuinely.

Correction. You are NOT deranged. This guy is:
>René Guénon died on Sunday, 7 January 1951 at the age of 64: his final word was "Allah".
You know this is baloney 'cause no Frenchie can pronounce the letter H. Much less in that deep, guttural Arabic way.
Don't you have some whining about Anglos and Atlanticists to do?
What
actually means is he can't succinctly explain it because it's all baffle-gab that requires properly setting the stage with more complex prior baffle-gab until you're soft and tender and ready to concede to anything just to get it over with.
Yup. Should be enough to refute his shite.
Lol, so the way AWFLs worship the nearest brown person?
Heya heya heya heya! I love native American religion bros.
>the same way a lot of Americans have been fascinated by American Indian spirituality.
Lol no
Rene Guenon is the most correct, smartest and most important person of the twentieth century. There was no smarter, deeper, clearer, absolute Guenon and probably could not be. It is no coincidence that the French traditionalist René Allé in one collection dedicated to R. Guenon compared Guenon with Marx. It would seem that there are completely different, opposite figures. Guenon is a conservative hyper-traditionalist. Marx is a revolutionary innovator, a radical overthrower of traditions. But Rene Halle rightly guessed the revolutionary message of each of Guenon's statements, the extreme, cruel noncomformity of his position, which turns everything and everything upside down, the radical nature of his thought.
The fact is that René Guenon is the only author, the only thinker of the twentieth century, and maybe many, many centuries before that, who not only identified and confronted with each other secondary language paradigms, but also put into question the very essence of language. The language of Marxism was methodologically very interesting, subtly reducing the historical existence of mankind to a clear and convincing formula for confronting labor and capital. Being a great paradigmatic success, Marxism was so popular and won the minds of the best intellectuals of the twentieth century. But R. Guenon is an even more fundamental generalization, an even more radical removal of masks, an even broader worldview contestation, putting everything into question.

Well that settles it, I suppose.
Frick off, thuletide.
Also, all but one of these quotes is 20 years old.
The 8-year-old one is pretty damning, though.
There are better people to take your chud spiritual advice from.
>implying last year's supply alone won't give you a black lung
guy complains about the "genocide of the israelites and the slavs" but is in favor of a much greater genocide, which is the annihilation of the west and the people that currently live in it. makes perfect sense.
>Dugin
Into the trash it goes.

It's funny to me when I think that there are a bunch of terminally online morons mind rotted by contemporary political memes and rhetoric that tried to read Guenon thinking his traditionalism meant conervative traditionalism.
i've never read and have no interest in reading guenon. how does his traditionalism differ from conservative traditionalism?
If you have no interest in ever reading him, why should anyone spoonfeed you? Weirdo.
