>pleb makes "epic" takedown and *dabs* on hegel (via secondary literature) in the midst of amphetamine and psychedelic spree
Gay af. The reasons he says Hegel are bad are precisely the opposite. But I shouldn't expect a serious philosophical engagement from a druggie trad cultist...

That must have been a joke, that writing is obviously from some book

>>14729936
define "do", define "something", define "useful", define "life"

>>14730028
Book or not, it is bullshit.

>>14730036
Lmao

Joke's on you, I cheated and immediately jumped to the end of philosophy.

>how embarrassing

People who start with Neitzche instead of reading him at or near the end are the worst.

i'm assuming he means slaving away in some office somewhere

>wall of text
I'm not gonna waste my time but he fails to be a sympathetic and agnostic scholar and just clutches advaitic pearls

>>14729730
>>read Hegel
OH NO NO NO

>>14730396
he points out various flaws and contradictions in Hegel's system in the essay, you could start there

>>14731595
I read the entire thing. It is weak and dogmatic and makes no serious contentions of interest. Refer to: >>14730005

good luck kid

I work. I have friends. What's wrong with reading? Knowledge is its own pleasure...

>>14730396
>agnostic scholar
Of course based Guénonposter isn't agnostic, for he has achieved the heights of Gnosis by diligently reading Shankaracharya (pbuh).

Philosophy is about skepticism. If you want to talk faith go to a religion thread.

>>14731798
Nobody said anything about faith, and nor are we talking about profane philosophy my confused friend, not that there is anything wrong with having faith though. You can study and appreciate Traditional metaphysics without complete faith merely by allowing yourself to temporarily suspend disbelief and approaching it with an open mind, and then at a certain point you realize that everything being talked about accords with your actual experience and it dawns on you that it's true, that is if you possess the capacity for spiritual insight and are not a hylic.
