Which one is actually better? Which one will I learn more from?

Both are good, you'll learn a lot from both.

I think that Guenon was better but at the same time they complement each other. Guenon was more like a brahmin while Evola was a kshatriya.

Evola's pre-traditionalist writings (on magical idealism and the absolute individual)

>Which one is actually better?
They are both great, comparing them is pointless.
>Which one will I learn more from?
What do you want to learn? Personally, I found Evola far more conducive to my development.

Evola because he teaches the true meaning of knowledge as requiring initiatory experience that is relational to your state of being, not just MUH facts anyone could have read. Also about the power and primacy of action.

I've said it before, I'll say it again:
Every other "traditionalist" thinker make the trek to find the fountain of youth just to check on a clipboard that it exists. Meanwhile Evola is standing there handing out little glasses for everyone who makes it.

You get more than just an intellectual experience in reading Evola, it helps you understand and awaken the fire inside ones self, it makes you a braver creature like you should be.

These are the good answers, they are both good in their own right. Read both and form your own conclusions

I’ve gotten more out of Evola but I admit I haven’t read equal amounts of both
