You should read in all possible finite orderings (with repeats) of length under 15.
The order in which you should order those orderings should be the lexicographical order, having already ordered the books in lexicographical order of the titles.

Try adding the Mystery of the Grail to the list as #1, then read the rest in chronological order.

How is Evola racist?
I'm about 1/4 through Revolt Against the Modern World. So far it has mostly been about the symbolism and history of "divine right of kings". think its a very interesting analysis on monarchy/religion, and I am learning a lot about Egyptian, Indo-Iranian, and even Roman religion.

Why all the hate against Evola?

>> No.13404874

>>13404793
Spencer and Bannon namedropped him so trannie brigade edited his wikipedia page and in turn liberals mindlessly seethe whenever he's mentioned. Had these two not mentioned him and just stopped on namedropping French New Right and none of these retards would notice that Evola existed(even if to a degree New Right was also namedropping him, but that would require reading their books and articles, some in French only).

What is the relation between this guy and Guenon? Why they are often referred as group?

Evola often references Guenon, plus they're roughly in the same school of thought, with Evola being perhaps more western and Guenon more eastern minded.

What about Oswald Spengler? He wrote The Decline of the West, similar to these two.
And what I bogged about it is how they related to some indian theology or mythology. What is going on here?

I wish I had the time I spent on all of his books. Perennialism is a joke and it took me a long time to figure that out. If they would just come out and be honest about their inconsistency in what they consider a valid tradition, and that it ultimately comes down to personal intuition then I could respect them.

Why read the Grail first? That book references Revolt quite a bit in order to define things. If you only have Grail you're not going to know what the hell he's talking about.

Indian theology and mythology back in the times was known in the west mostly from Rigvega which is of Aryan(indo-european) origin and since all IE people had roughly the same view of the supernatural, and all of these influenced via exchange or conquest other then-known ancient religions, the belief that it all came from the same source was reasonably believable(also see James Frazer).

And if you don't read Grail you won't know what's the significance of the examples he's providing in Revolt.

I literally told you in the same post. They're inconsistent in how they choose which traditions are valid, and that it ultimately comes down to intuition or "feels."
