You sure showed those guenonposters. How will they ever recover?

>It so happens that Rene Guenon was the chief influence in the formation of my own intellectual outlook (quite apart from the question of Orthodox Christianity). I read and studied with eagerness all his books that I could get a hold of; through his influence I studied ·the ancient Chinese language and resolved to do for the Chinese tradition what he had done for the Hindu; I was even able to meet and study with a genuine representative of the Chinese tradition and understood full well what he means by the difference between such authentic teachers and the mere "professors" who teach in the universities.

>It was Rene Guenon who taught me to seek and love the Truth above all else, and to be unsatisfied with anything else; this is what finally brought me to the Orthodox Church. Perhaps a word of my experience will be of help for you to know.

>For years in my studies I was satisfied with being "above all traditions" but somehow faithful to them; I only went deeper into the Chinese tradition because no one had presented it in the West from a fully traditional point of view.When I visited an Orthodox Church, it was only in order to view another "tradition"-knowing that Guenon (and one of his disciples) had described Orthodoxy as the most authentic of the Christian traditions.

>However, when I entered an Orthodox Church for the first time (a Russian Church in San Francisco), something happened to me that I had not experienced in any Buddhist or other Eastern temple; something in my heart said that this is "home," that all my search was over. I didn't really know what.. this meant, because the service was quite strange to me, and in a foreign language. I began to attend Orthodox services more frequently, gradually learning its language and customs, but still keeping all my basic Guenonion ideas about all the authentic spiritual traditions.

>With my exposure to Orthodoxy and to Orthodox people, however, a new idea began to enter my awareness: that truth was not just an abstract idea, sought and known by the mind, but was something personal-even a Person-sought and loved by the heart. And that is how I met Christ. I am now grateful that my approach to Orthodoxy took several years and had nothing of emotional excitement about it-that was Guenon's influence again, and it helped me to go deeper into Orthodxy without the ups and downs that some converts encounter when they arc not too ready for something as deep as Orthodoxy. My entrance into the Orthodox Church occurred at the very time I left the academic world and gave up the attempt to communicate the Chinese tradition to the Western world. My Chinese teacher also left San Francisco shortly before this-my only real contact with the Chinese tradition-and in Guenonian fashion he disappeared utterly, leaving no address. I remember him fondly, but after becoming Orthodox I saw how limited was his teaching: the Chinese spiritual teaching, he said, would disappear entirely from the world if Communism endures another ten or twenty years in China. So fragile was this tradition-but the Orthodox Christianity I had found would survive everything and endure to the end of the world-because it was not merely handed down from generation to generation, as all traditions are; but was at the same time given from God to
man.

>I look back fondly now on Rene Guenon as my first real instructor in Truth, and I only pray that you will take what is good from him and not let his limitations chain you. Even psychologically, "Eastern wisdom" is not for us who are flesh and blood of the West; Orthodox Christianity is clearly the tradition that was given us-and it can be clearly seen in the Western Europe of the first ten centuries, before the falling away of Rome from Orthodoxy. But it also happens that Orthodoxy is not merely a "tradition" like any other, a "handing down" of spiritual wisdom from the past; it is God's Truth here and now-it gives us immediate contact with God such as no other tradition can do. There are many truths in the other traditions, both those handed down from a past when men were closer to God, and those discovered by gifted men in the reaches of the mind;' but the full Truth is only in Christianity, God's revelation of Himself to mankind. I will take only one example: there are teachings on spiritual deception in other traditions, but none so thoroughly refined as those taught by the Orthodox Holy Fathers; and more importantly, these deceptions of the evil one and our fallen nature are so omnipresent and so thorough that no one could escape them unless the loving God revealed by Christianity were close at hand to deliver us from them. Similarly: Hindu tradition teaches many true things about the end of the Kali Yuga; but one who merely knows these truths in the mind will be helpless to resist the temptations of those times, and many who recognize the Antichrist (Chalmakubi) when he comes will nonetheless worship him-only the power of Christ given to the heart will have strength to resist him.

>It is my prayer for you that God will open your heart, and you yourself will do what you can to meet Him. You will find there happiness you never dreamed possible before; your heart will join your head in recognizing the true God, and no real truth you have ever known will be lost. May God grant it! Feel free to write whatever is in your mind or heart.

"Alright if there is anything such as a non-dual state or have gone beyond mind why the hell are you describing that state as love, bliss, beatitude you are selling your own brand of cigarettes fooling us all and telling us all it is nicotine free but they are also cigarettes" - UG Krishnamurti

cringe and retroactively refuted (pbuh)

There can't be possibly a genuine, real nondual state it contradicts itself

Oh no no nooooOOOOooooo
HOW DARE YOU?????????

Meditate on the p. Whosoever meditates on the p attains piece and is happy in this life.
Meditate on the b. Whosoever meditates on the b realizes that Brahman is the supreme being and overcomes all difficulties.
Meditate on the u. Whosoever meditates on the u gets a (You).
Meditate on the h. Whosoever meditates on the h realizes that he is the same as Him
Meditate on pbuh. Whosoever meditates on pbhu becomes one with the Brahman.

Nonduality is funny, because the individual genuinely believes he accomplished something special, the feeling of "oneness", but the problem is to be even aware of this, to go around proselytizing others telling others nonduality is "love, oneness blah blah completely contradicts the point. If you are finished you are finished with vedanta for good.

Based brother (pbuh) with an exquisite exegesis. May you be consumed in the pbuh, brother (pbuh)

Imagine the P hovering over the chakra as you meditate. It will bring you happiness in this life.

Still better than an actual discussion of Guenon.

pbuh pubh!

I wish someone could actually have an in-depth discussion about him rather than this stuff with the occasional polemical infographic mixed in now and then

Imagine him seeing this shit. The internet is so bizzare. Most people wouldn't even know of him. He is not particularly memeable. It's so odd how this trend occurred in the first place.

hell, still would

Eh, I think Theosophy was the first to endow Eastern philosophy with a certain memetic quality. But yeah this shit is just stupid

OP here, I didn't intend for the thread to turn out like this, I just posted the first post and went to bed. What about him would you like to talk about?
