Reads evola

>Fascism: 100 questions asked and answered

>In this pre-War book written in convenient Question and Answer form by Oswald Mosley, the Leader of the British Union of Fascists challenges the simplistic nature of the stereotypical image. It acknowledges that if he had been elected to power political party warfare would have been brought to an end. Instead of voting for different party labels General Elections would be based on an occupational franchise. Under this system everybody would vote according to their vocation: miners voting for a choice of mining candidates; farm workers for agricultural candidates; health workers for doctors and nurses; and textile workers for textile worker candidates. There would even have been occupational candidates for housewives and pensioners. In this way, Mosley believed that a government of experts elected by experts would be created: a body far better equipped to provide good government than one based on a multi-party geographical franchise. Other questions and answers covered by Mosley in equal depth include freedom of speech; reform of the banking system; and the roles of trade unions in the modern workplace.

is fascism basically communist nationalism without the internationalism?

no. communism is fascism without the spirituality

...

I read Evolaas an act of post-new sincerity.

Fascism is the application of Universal Truth onto oneself and society at large.
It is the uncompromising subscription to Natural Law.
It isn't a secular, materialistic ideology like Communism or Capitalism.
It is the rebirth of Tradition.

>It is the rebirth of Tradition
It's the bastardization of tradition for the purpose of crude political power play. Why do you think right-wing intellectuals like Junger and Evola rejected fascism?

>reads Evola
Why waste your time on this pseudointellectual’s magic witch doctor philosophy when you could read actual philosophers instead?

Evola would fucking love the internet. It’s sort of the ultimate accelerationist tool. Ride the tiger baby.

Evola is useful in that he demonstrates how to link up streams of ancient philosophy with contemporary existence.

>this post
>calls others pseuds

Excellent propaganda, user!

Ignoring whether you agree with Fascism or not, you have to agree that that was good advertising copy; poetry, really.

>Why do you think right-wing intellectuals like Junger and Evola rejected fascism?

Stop, you're embarrassing yourself.

>MUH CLASSICAL FASCISM IS DIFFERENT FROM GERMAN NATIONAL SOCIALISM

You obviously haven't read or understood Junger or Evola.

>he isn't intent on becoming an aristocratic internet wizard archon to direct the Cathedral of the Tiger from the shadows

wtf does that even mean

>reads evola
>stops reading evola because it's pure garbage

Stop pulling the trash out of the bin

tfw evolanon calls your waifu a shit citing a perennial truth contained within the brahma-sutra upanishad which states that your waifu a shit

For awhile, I thought he was wearing a monocle where his scarred eye is.

You're confusing modernism and technological progression. He was not a primitivist

>I may be a weak, sickened, virginal cripple with a non-functioning dick, but I assure you that my writings are in no way an overcompensation for these facts. I'm actually a highly advanced spiritual patrician who reigns supreme over 99.9% of humanity.

>Stop, you're embarrassing yourself.
They did though. Evola derided the fascists' materialistic world view and populist leanings, while Junger realized the NSDAP were all misguided brainlets.

>>MUH CLASSICAL FASCISM IS DIFFERENT FROM GERMAN NATIONAL SOCIALISM
Where did I even hint at that?

b-but le erudite monocle man lets me clothe my base resentment against a world in which I'm not successful with a veneer of intellectualism! Even though I can't slog through more than 12 pages of any book he's written, deep down I feel it all vindicates my deep desire to call people niggers on the internet. That's what he means by ''revolt against the modern world'', right? And riding the tiger means ignoring females, because in our modern, decadent, materialistic society qt tradwifes simply don't exist, no?

please stop this, it's unbecoming

It's true though. Pic related represents most Ebola fans.

>weak, sickened, virginal cripple with a non-functioning dick,
Implying you didn't just describe the messiab

a true man amongst the ruins
he's just riding the tiger breh

The user in pic related said to start with The Hermetic Tradition as an introduction to Evola. Is he right?

Evola was a NEET, and would've spent a good chunk of his time on the net each day posting on fashy forums, and collecting an ebook collection of esoteric literature.

Evola is the king of virgin NEETs w/ superiority complexes.

Yall know that if Evola was capable of getting an erection he would never have written a single word of that bullshit, right? "Muh inner sexual alchemy" is pretty easy to advocate when you know you're never gonna penetrate a real live woman.

>hating technology
>missing the point

because actual philosophers have only been irrelevant or made things degenerate faster

Frithjof Schuon was a literal child molester. The whole 'Traditionalist' thing was a scam, don't bother.

The Hermetic Tradition (as in the Corpus Hermetica, Smagardine Tablet, etc., not Evola's book) however is worth your time. Either jump into the primary sources, or start with Frances Yates.

not sure why would you do that, unless you are interested in the hermetic tradition, if you are interested in buddhism read the doctrine of awakening, or if you are interested in tantrism read the yoga of power, the doctrine of awakening i'd say is the most straightforward to read for us western normies, we are totally disconnected from our western esoteric traditions, so something that builds up from a smaller core like buddhism will be easier to follow

or read Guenon, you should read Guenon at some point anyway to see that Evola was too edgy and still too modern in his faith in the power of an individual disconnected from a true unbroken chain of tradition

My advice to anyone looking to explore this edgy cryptofascist aesthetic is to spare yourself the trouble of reading Guenon/Evola/Schuon and just listen to a few Death In June albums instead. If you aren't a total retard your fascination with this meme will be gone in about six months anyway.

never post here again

SURF THE KALI YUGA PLEB

...

Geez someone got their panties on a twist. Is bringing up Evola the ultimate trigger?

Didn't that retard literally believe Hyperborea existed?

Hyperborea literally does exist

lol this guy thought he was a wizard, what a retard

Hyperborea is real you absolute brainlet, I went there yesterday, as a matter of fact

>MUH MAGICKEH

>Frithjof Schuon was a literal child molester.

I call bullshit.

>The vedas describe solar/lunar movements that would only be seen by someone at the the north pole and within the arctic circle
>vedas mention the day and night of the gods are six months long, i.e. the 6 month long day and night or the polar north
>vedas mentions incredibly long lasting dawns, at one point instructs that it's recommended to ceremonially recite the entire rig veda during dawn (dawns in the polar north take many days)
>the arkhaim ceremonial site in northern Russia to the east of the Urals is thousands of years old and is arranged in the same arrangement of the palace of a king deacribed in the vedas

Hyperborea absolutely existed and the proto-indo-europeans were hyperboreans.

Schuon performed sexual acts with underage girls at his cult compound in Bloomington, IN. The "Controversy" section of his Wiki page has been scrubbed, but google "Frithjof Schuon scandal" and there are tons of results.

No, it's just gotten boring. As evidenced by the OP and numerous other posts lately, people don't actually read him, see the word "traditionalism", and somehow come to the conclusion that Evola was writing a proto Unabomber Manifesto.

yes, retards that think that Evola was a fascist or that he wanted to "go back to the 50s", even though he lived before the actual 50s and despised everything after the french revolution

not saying that Evola was that very consequent about his ideas, he talks about we living in the Kali Yuga but if you truly believe that like Guenon does, the Kali Yuga started about 6,000 years ago, so classical greece and rome were already degenerated if you swallow that kind of pill

>already degenerated if you swallow that kind of pill
SOCRATES

NIGGER

traditionalists don't usually fall for the DNA meme

>the arkhaim ceremonial site in northern Russia to the east of the Urals is thousands of years old and is arranged in the same arrangement of the palace of a king deacribed in the vedas

Substantiate your claims

wow what an original insight, a Pelasgian Greek is a nigger from the people who don’t take population genetics seriously but LARP about it on their secret rw social club. Anyone whose not from the PONTIC STEPPE home of the BLONDE BEAST is a nigger. Oh and that refutes Soc’s critiques too rite guys?

There is no substantial evidence which points that he did. It's all slander and hearsay. You probably believe Roy Moore is a child molester too despite there not being any proof, don't you?

OP here. I made this post two days ago in a bout of apathy. Didn't expect people to actujally respond.

I've taken a break from Evola in order to read the saints, but he was the first author to really introduce the spirit of tradition as he calls it in a way that spoke to my dilapidated modern mindset.

There is a plague, here on these boards, where everything straightforward and sober is ridiculed and nothing is taken seriously, and everyone just regurgitates memes out of some latent anxiety still abiding in them from their upbringing . That is the bug which stirred me to publish this meaningless OP, so I wouldn't get to distraught over it if I were you

In good faith, I will approach Evola's works anew, something which might benefit me now that I have gained a better idea of the traditional spirt and the inner work.

Adieu my friend

You dropped your fedora on your way out

>Defending an obscure dead pedophile because you agree with his puerile power fantasies and metaphysical garbledygook passed off as "philosophy"

Find better hobbies friend.

What? See, this is what I'm talking about. People here don't speak in sober fashion, they just regurgitate modern memes and slang.

>Defending an obscure dead pedophile
Allegedly, and there is no evidence. If the glove don't fit you must acquit.
>because you agree with his puerile power fantasies and metaphysical garbledygook passed off as "philosophy"
Perennialism has roots in Neo-Platonism, and has been further expanded upon in the Renaissance. Nice try.

Well at least you realized how terrible your half-baked premise of a thread was, but I agree that Veeky Forums has pretty much become "/b/ with books". There are only a handful of good threads a week.

>only a few good threads a week
>only

That's your modern mindset talking.

Let them use their memes, that way you know who not to take seriously

>underage girls
What does that even mean? I hate this meme

Actually, Evola is just not good, period. Can't write, can't think.

>Defending a dead pedophile because you agree with his puerile power fantasies and metaphysical garbledygook passed off as "philosophy"

U WOT

>Perennialism has roots in Neo-Platonism, and has been further expanded upon in the Renaissance
It this supposed to be a defense? Lmao

What are YOU doing to accelerate the Kali Yuga today?

A few months ago I was chatting with a stranger on omegle. They asked me for help and I thought they were fucking around like 99+% of people there. They produced an image of themselves in makeup with hair done and breasts. Arguably pretty, clearly a natural male, though.

It was apparently a young dude who had been convinced to take hormones and effectively become a woman. He seemed legitimately disturbed and desperate. It's possible they were yanking my chain but that made me realize that shit like that is real.

these fetishists are some real retardeds
I just want to erase them all

Has there actually ever been an Evola criticism that wasn't just
>don't be mean to jews >:(
or
>don't judge my lifestyle, I can be fap to cartoons in my basement as much as I want!
around here? The brahmin vs kshatriya debate would be a possible angle of criticism, but we never get even that far.

Unfortunately not. There was an entire dossier of evidence compiled and available online until his cult's legal team had it disappeared from the net. But fret not, it will be available soon once more, complete with Schuon's n00ds, I am told. (have seen them, a bit scary tbqfh with you.)

>The brahmin vs kshatriya debate would be a possible angle of criticism, but we never get even that far.
Search for the thompkins_cariou Evola website on the Internet Archive and find the article entitled A Controversy on the Vedanta for more on that subject.

pure evil

i agree with evola on a lot of things but not his concept of knowledge that "shouldn't be known". how does he defend that position?

it shouldn't be known because it cannot be known outside of a secret inner act. To share it is to make it a shadow of itself

wtf...

can't find it can u link?

>Dude, he is totally a child molester. I have seen the nudes. You just gotta believe me, man.
Post link or gtfo

not the first user, but since your search skills are dismal, you might try looking for Mark Koslow's old blog (probably taken down so make use of internet archive and cached versions).
Also, you're an awful knob, you know that?
ia601301.us.archive.org/1/items/2011DOSSIERAFFAIRESCHUON/2011_DOSSIER_AFFAIRE_SCHUON.pdf

on the wikipedia page for the site in the first two sentances there are references to studies done on the site by scholars where they concluded that it related to the vedas.

updated version plus some pics here too:

You are being obtuse dickhead. Listen, if that user is making a claim, (and a serious accusation, might I add) then the burden of proof lies on him. Telling the opposition to "look it up" and shoving the burden of research on them, instead of laying out the evidence for all to see once proof is demanded from you is intellectually disingenuous.

I looked up what you mentioned and I think there is something to it but it seems overblown. I think the bigger issue is cult-like and seemingly megolomaniac behavior by Schuon.

Based on what I read Schuon in his 80's started his own Virgin Mary-based heterodox sufi sect and incorporated 'ceremonies' based on native american rituals where women and some teenage girl would dance around while they were all naked and then some would approach him and hug him. There isn't any description of anything else, the author of the peice I noted notes that he was so old he couldn't even get erections anymore. While he should have known better, keep in kind that Muhammad himself had penetrative sex with pre-pubescent girls (not to say that either of those are okay but objecting to nude women/girls hugging a nude 80-year man as a super bad thing seems like anglo puritan moralizing).

The bigger issue is the evidence Schuon went on an ego trip and started to refer
to himself in prophetic terms and talked about himself like he was an avatar or superhuman. That fundamentally goes against the traditional eastern mystical doctrines which overwhelmingly emphasize the unity of all beings and proscribe egotistical behavior.

And that's not to say that people who commit wrong doing are automatically disqualified as spiritual teachers. Gurdjieff and certain Tibetian lamas were known for eccentrice behavior and debauchery but still had very profound impacts as teachers. People are complicated beings and one can transmit spiritual knowledge without according in perfect accordance with it at all time.

With all that being said though based on what I read I get the impression that Schuon was a brillant man who as he got very old his mind weakened and his judgement worsened and he didn't realize he was acting in ways that were unwholesome.

>The whole 'Traditionalist' thing was a scam, don't bother.

The Traditionalist school of thought was and still is massively influential, is intellectually compelling and is above all interesting; individual failings by certain members of it notwithstanding. You can for the most part stick with Guenon and Coomarasay as they offer pretty much all you need to know insofar as traditionalism and after them there is really just the actual eastern texts themselves. The trads are not an end in themselves but just complement studying the actual texts and participating in religious groups and practices like meditation/yoga/prayer etc.

>The Traditionalist school of thought was and still is massively influential

Guenon alone influenced a huge range of people including many leftist/socialist authora and surrealists, many far-right authors and thinkers including Carl Schmitt, and also influenced many of the most famous religious scholars like Huston Smith and Mercea Eliade among others. He is credited as being one of the first Europeans who wrote about the eastern doctrines accurately and many eastern figures praised him and referred to him as such.

And that's just Guenon, when you include Schuon, Lings, Commaraswamy, Evola, Buckheart, Dugin they were a huge influence on society. The media doesn't fawn over them and promote because they go against everything the liberal elite Atlanticist faux-egalitarian establishment stands for but that doesn't change that they were a huge influence on society.

In addition to influencing many important thinkers and authors in the west, they also influenced many authors and thinkers in the east. Guenon is well-regarded and relatively well-known in India and the middle east.

The traditionalist school as laid much of the groundwork for the new age movement in the 60's and neo-vedanta.

They influenced people of all political types from far-right to far-left and also had a significant impact on the study of religion.

The increasing popularity of them in the past decade as more and more people rediscover them only reinforces the point.

>neo-vedanta
Unfortunately, the only things the West got out of that were contortionist exercises, and new agey manuals on how to improve your sex life.

See, this is the exact kind of reply that brings down Veeky Forums's overall credibility.

Thank you user for your valuable replies This is a very interesting topic to discuss, I hope more well informed people show up, and not some edgy retards.
Btw, for those of you well versed in Traditionalism, is it worth it learning Italian to read Evola in the original? I'm a native portuguese speaker, so learning Italian isn't that hard. I'm also learning German and French, which might be useful to read Guenon and Schuon in the original. Is it worth it to do so or should I jump straight to English translations?

Over the years I've avoided learning yoga and related practices exactly because of the public its classes normally attract. But I guess we shouldn't be surprised an important field of study has been reduced to fit modern degeneracy, that has happened with so many other areas, most obviously the arts.

you need to get out more often before getting up on your legalistic, overly logical, high horse, mate.
Schuon's antics are hardly news, the stories, pictures and credible reports have been knocking about online for years at this stage (only to be scrubbed every now and again) - only a truly disingenuous muppet, or paid-up member of the cult, would attempt to wash away the accusations with an appeal to due process or whatever the hell it is you want to call your little rant.

>overly logical high horse
>paid-up member of the cult
Wew, so threads on traditionalism INDEED trigger some folks. I'm not even the user your comment is directed to, but you're being ridiculous. He is right in pointing out the burden of proof lies with you, you like his vocabulary or not.
>credible reports are out there all the time, the only reason you can't find them is because they're scrubbed!
Yeah anyone can say that about anything bud. As long as you don't come up with something of substance there's no reason to condemn the man. Unlike you, the other user produced a detailed reply in . Given what we've seen so far it would seem you are the "truly disingenuous muppet" here. Unless you have some very suspicious pics of him a la Joe Biden.
Oh noes, I disagreed with you, does that make me Schuon's JIDF? Veeky Forums sure is a place to keep an eye on uh
