Where do I begin with him?
Should I start with Hindu Doctrines or Crisis of the modern world?

Yes, dear Sir. You may start with either of them, although I'd say that Hindu Doctrines is surely a better start. Be sure, too, to read Shankaracharya's Upadesa Sahasri after it.

What do I read before Guenon? Can I just jump straight into him?

>He who spends his life without honoring the phallus is verily unfortunate, sinful, and ill-fated. If we put in balance the worship of the liṅga as against charities, fasts, pilgrimages, sacrifice, and virtue, it is the worship of the giver of pleasure and liberation, the remover of adversity, that prevails.

so this is the power of indian philosophy...

You could use the archive, you could use the catalog, you could google it, you could do literally anything to answer this question. And no, I'm not going to give you the answer hahaha

Shankara is okay but be careful, he is often called a crypto Buddhist because his philosophy depends very much on Nagarjuna's Madhyamaka. Advaita is a very late, Buddhistic interpretation of the Vedas.

>>14568610
Sure, go ahead. Just be careful about Guenon's student, Frithjof Schuon. That guy ran a cult in Indiana where he was accused of sexually abusing underage girls and sleeping with the wives of his followers.

Being a crypto Buddhist would actually make him based.

Rene Guenon (pbuh) was a prophet, saint and metaphysician, to call him a philosopher is a baseless slur
>they just don't want you posting 10 threads at once about it. Are you retarded?
It's not me doing so, but in any case this is a Rene Guenon (pbuh) board so if people have a problem with it they should go to r/books
