Personally, I have matured enough as a person to arrive at a point where I'm ready to leave Rene Guenon behind and move on to finer things. Where will this quest take me?

There is nothing beyond Guenon. The primordial tradition is unchanging and the only truth. All true study leads up to it.

The logical step after Guenon is reading primary esoteric texts. Start with the Vedas, Hermeticism, Neoplatonism, Taoism, alchemy, whatever. The world is you oyster.

So I take it this guy is /lit/'s version of Evola? Because of course /lit/ can't like "mainstream" traditionalists, so they have to find some French intellectual who converted to Islam instead.

Yes. Evola is vastly superior to Guenon, but /lit/ is majority pseuds.
