/lit/ - Literature

>>14724509
Of course essays are accepted, but they must strictly be Guenon oriented and a serious effort. We have to be strict with this.

Post what other magazines you've worked on, under which publishers and distributors

>>14724509
Stop saying pbuh

If you are serious about this you should know pbuh is only for prophets names.

A holy person has "ra" after their name, for radi Allahu anhu, meaning may Allah be pleased with him

>>14724650
Guenon (pbuh) is just as worthy

>>14724650
>A holy person has "ra" after their name
pretty sure that's only for sahabi

>>14724650
Are you an actual sandnigger? Get the fuck out of here

>>14724650
>> only for prophets
> Guenon

Exactly, so what's your point? Are you arguing that he's a saint or more?

>>14724654
You can say that or rahmatullahi alayh, may Allah mercy him

>>14724665
You really think guenon would like you putting pbuh after his name? He isn't a prophet

The fact you do this as if it's some big joke shows you are all too immature to be reading this stuff.

>>14724653
You are reading traditionalism but disrespect the tradition by your behaviour. Just another larping white idiot.

>>14724697
you've disrespected me by assuming that I'm some inbred A*glo

>>14724697
I'm blacker than you, anon.

>>14724650
He's not serious about it; he's desperate about tarnishing Guénon's name. That's how all this memery started; he posted threads to bait his paranoid delusion boogeyman into his threads to insult him; but he is so deranged he started to fall for his own ploy. I don't feel an ounce of sympathy for this madman.

If he had read Guénon he would know he was totally against proselytism, organizations etc.. Yet this demon possessed lunatic is here 24/7 spamming and the useless jannies do nothing.

>>14724721
this, the guy has been here for years shitting up guenon threads and giving him a bad name.

>>14724721
>>14724723
You shall eat your words on the 17th.

>>14724729
I sincerely hope you're right.

>>14724721
we must update with the times, anon. like an iphone.

>>14724729
What happens on the 17th??

>>14724763
We spread based Guenon's good word to the internet

>>14724767
This. But nobody cares, so business as usual

>>14724771

Who cares? Genuinely? A few autists that shitpost here.

>>14724837
Cringe. Guenon has been /lit/'s top ranked philosopher for years.

“René Guénon (pbuh) defies classification. . . . Were he anything less than a consummate master of lucid argument and forceful expression, his work would certainly be unknown to all but a small, private circle of admirers.”
—Gai Eaton, author of The Richest Vein

“Guénon (pbuh) established the language of sacred metaphysics with a rigor, a breadth, and an intrinsic certainty such that he compels recognition as a standard of comparison for the twentieth century.”
—Jean Borella, author of Guénonian Esoterism and Christian Mystery

“To a materialistic society enthralled with the phenomenal universe exclusively, Guénon (pbuh), taking the Vedanta as point of departure, revealed a metaphysical and cosmological teaching both macrocosmic and microcosmic about the hierarchized degrees of being or states of existence, starting with the Absolute . . . and terminating with our sphere of gross manifestation.”
—Whitall N. Perry, editor of A Treasury of Traditional Wisdom

“René Guénon (pbuh) was the chief influence in the formation of my own intellectual outlook (quite apart from the question of Orthodox Christianity). . . . It was René Guénon (pbuh) who taught me to seek and love the truth above all else, and to be unsatisfied with anything else.”
—Fr. Seraphim Rose, author of The Soul After Death

“His mixture of arcane learning, metaphysics, and scathing cultural commentary is a continent in itself, untouched by the polluted tides of modernity. . . . Guénon’s (pbuh) work will not save the world—it is too late for that—but it leaves no reader unchanged.”
—Jocelyn Godwin, author of Mystery Religions in the Ancient World

“René Guénon (pbuh) is one of the few writers of our time whose work is really of importance. . . . He stands for the primacy of pure metaphysics over all other forms of knowledge, and presents himself as the exponent of a major tradition of thought, predominantly Eastern, but shared in the Middle Ages by the . . . West.”
—Walter Shewring, translator of Homer’s Odyssey

>>14724837
“In a world increasingly rife with heresy and pseudo-religion, Guénon (pbuh) had to remind twentieth century man of the need for orthodoxy, which presupposes firstly a Divine Revelation and secondly a Tradition that has handed down with fidelity what Heaven has revealed. He thus restores to orthodoxy its true meaning, rectitude of opinion which compels the intelligent man not only to reject heresy but also to recognize the validity of faiths other than his own if they also are based on the same two principles, Revelation and Tradition.”
—Martin Lings, author of Ancient Beliefs and Modern Superstitions

“If during the last century or so there has been even some slight revival of awareness in the Western world of what is meant by metaphysics and metaphysical tradition, the credit for it must go above all to Guénon (pbuh). At a time when the confusion into which modern Western thought had fallen was such that it threatened to obliterate the few remaining traces of genuine spiritual knowledge from the minds and hearts of his contemporaries, Guénon (pbuh), virtually single-handed, took it upon himself to reaffirm the values and principles which, he recognized, constitute the only sound basis for the living of a human life with dignity and purpose or for the formation of a civilization worthy of the name.”
—Philip Sherrard, author of Christianity: Lineaments of a Sacred Tradition

“Apart from his amazing flair for expounding pure metaphysical doctrine and his critical acuteness when dealing with the errors of the modern world, Guénon (pbuh) displayed a remarkable insight into things of a cosmological order. . . . He all along stressed the need, side by side with a theoretical grasp of any given doctrine, for its concrete—one can also say its ontological—realization failing which one cannot properly speak of knowledge.”
—Marco Pallis, author of A Buddhist Spectrum

“Guénon’s (pbuh) mission was two-fold: to reveal the metaphysical roots of the ‘crisis of the modern world’ and to explain the ideas behind the authentic and esoteric teachings that still [remain] alive.”
—Harry Oldmeadow, author of Traditionalism: Religion in the Light of the Perennial Philosophy

>>14724509
Based... I'll repost the previous works of art our brothers have crafted in the other thread.


>I

All hail Guenon(pbuh), the rightful roi of France

>II
Guénon - the Truth, the Light never-ending,
All things are known to him,

>We spread based Guenon's good word to the internet
Holy based....

>>14724509
Supra-based... Do you have a name for the magazine already? If not, maybe we can make a strawpoll for the brothers to create a blessed name for his (pbuh) magazine.

>>14724971
What does Nick Land think about Guénon (pbuh) who retroactively preempted and then refuted accelerationism by centuries?

>>14724509
i hope you guys spammed his email with garbage just like he spams our board. Don't disappoint me please /lit/

>>14724837
>>14724846

>>14725049
>with garbage
Even a piece of garbage can be transmuted into pure gold with the power of the Great Alchemist Rene Guenon (pbuh).

>>14725129
so you're admitting you're one schizo with multiple fake personalities. Good, that's a step in the right direction. Now go take your meds. And stop acting like this is all an epic troll when you've been obsessed with this for more than half a decade, this is clearly a severe mental illness

>>14725033
We don't know. We have to compare notes. His twitter account is actually a soft IA. Nobody knows where NL actually is.

>>14725138
What's your problem anon? Why is it so hard to accept that Neo-Guenonianism has been steadily gaining steam?

>>14725138
>so you're admitting you're one schizo with multiple fake personalities
We're all but many masks of the one non-dual all-pervading Atma aftern all, as Rene Guenon (pbuh) and Shankaracharya (pbuh) explain with such clarity in their works

Guenon, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Gue-----non: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Gue. Non. Pip pip pip. He was One, plain One, in the morning, standing four feet ten before his two foot face. He was Tao in robes. He was Parmenides at life. He was Zeno on the dotted line. But in my mind he was always Guenon. Did he have a precursor? He did, indeed he did. In point of fact, there might have been no Guenon at all had I not initiated, one summer, an initial retroactive initiation. In a doctrine by the sea. Oh when? About as many years before Guenon was born as my age was that summer. You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, exhibit number one is what the seraphs, the misinformed, simple, noble-winged seraphs, the Whiteheadians, envied. Look at this tangle of thorns.

>>14725629
Holy fucking damn shit

>>14725720

>>14724721
thank you for posting this, i dont even have the energy anymore to point how these people go against guenon's positions

Based...

Guenon is third-rate

>>14726856
Stop being so obsessed with insulting Guenon you brain damaged simp. It's clear /lit/ has chosen him as its top philosopher.

>>14726867
Evola (pbuh) is superior in every form

>>14724697
Is this not the traditional (and typical) response contra guenon (pbuh)

>>14724721
>>14724650
actually, unironically, based and quality
the spammers are here to subvert and tarnish the words of Abd' Wahid Al-Yahya

Based thread, bros.

.

>>14724653
All guenon did was show there are correspondences between Islam and other tradtions, while showing kuffar philosophy is worthless and clear away most of the mental and cultural barriers that prevent westerners from converting to islam, opening the way for you to become a muslim. That's all he did. Now humble yourself, you are not enlightened or better than anyone else. You are only a slave.

guido de giorgio is superior to both guenon and evola

.

>>14728869
>>14728813
cringe

>>14729361
You are no better than anyone else for having read guenon. It has only made you arrogant and proud. Submit to Allah SWT

>>14729710
That's where you are wrong. Anybody becomes better for merely having read a word of Guenon's (pbuh) light.

>>14729762
Guenon only repeated what Muslims and Hindus already said.

>>14729792
> t. never read Guenon(pbuh)''s oeuvre.

>>14729816
I've read everyone of his books.

You clearly didn't understand much if you think he was saying something original.

if Guenon (SWT) refuted all of literature, where do i even start?

Answer me this
Why should I read Guenon when I have Jordan B Peterson, Brett Weinstein, Eric Weinstein, Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, and Sam Harris?

>>14731704
cringe and unsophisticated

>>14731714
the truth is the IDW is far superior that the Traditionalist school

>>14731704
>Jordan B Peterson, Brett Weinstein, Eric Weinstein, Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, and Sam Harris
Retroactively refuted by the Ineffable One (pbuh) himself.

What is the core concepts of Guenon? To me he just seemed like he was confused about what religion to join. Gnostic, Christian, Hindu, and Muslim? What exactly is going on here?

>>14731829
>>What is the core concepts of Guenon?

>Those who might be tempted to give way to despair should realize that nothing accomplished in this order can ever be lost, that confusion, error and darkness can win the day only apparently and in a purely ephemeral way, that all partial and transitory disequilibrium must perforce contribute towards the greater equilibrium of the whole, and that nothing can ultimately prevail against the power of truth.

>It is true that the masses have always been led in one manner or another, and it could be said that their part in history consists primarily in allowing themselves to be led, since they represent a merely passive element, a “matter” in the Aristotelian sense of the word. But, to lead them today, it is sufficient to dispose of purely material means, … and this shows clearly to what depths our age has sunk. At the same time the masses are made to believe that they are not being led, but that they are acting spontaneously and governing themselves, and the fact that they believe this is a sign from which the extent of their stupidity may be inferred.

Just read his introduction to hindu doctrines and crisis of the modern world. If you aren't an infra-intellectual hylic, you'll understand his thought pretty quickly.

Can't wait to read this publication. Guenon is the most interesting thinker ever to emerge from the west. I am almost certain much of his knowledge came from some kind of revelation. He knows too much to have learned it only using filthy western methods like books.

Got three bitches, im just following tradition

Greetings, brother. I wrote this for another Guenon (pbuh) thread.

I want to burn, to fly into the skies,
this imperfection of the human crust.
Becoming eternal like Guenon (pbuh),
who in great flames sits amongst the gods.

Already, my poor soul stung of its best,
within my flesh, the rebel walks itself,
Already the wood has been set to flames
to bring forth the great, bright rays of your eyes.

O saintly man! O chastely pretty fire!
Lo! burn me with your divine orb of fire,
as I leave the remains of my body.

Clean, pure, free I leap with a single bound,
up to the Heavens! to adore Guenon (pbuh)
the True Beauty who shines behind the sky.
