One of my friends has had multiple of his family members raped by grooming gangs. Edgepost as much as you want. Fags like you are a dime a dozen and all you'll amount to is a flash in the pan. Yes, women are intellectually underdeveloped. Yes, they do destructive shit all the time. This doesn't mean they're evil, nor does it mean that they are blind. Women have good instincts, and will err on the side of caution to avoid undesirable attention. In a low trust society, this is a very valuable ability. Play the cool cynic as much as you want. The world remains the same.

>he reads the preface
And why would you do that, exactly? You think I read any of the 15 prefaces that random retards attach to Evola books?

Anime website. Its a tradition, if you will.

Hey /lit/

I am at a crossroads in my life and opportunities are dwindling. So I have been considering studying Traditionalism seriously in an academic setting, but I am no adept so I don't know where in the West this would be possible.

Also, I know that Esotericism and the Academy explains how academia is closed off for this mode of thought but I do think that in the theological faculties there is a niche for this.

This is the only place I think would know so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

what comes after the kaliyuga?

imagine thinking you can understand Evola without having a background in Guenon and Nietzsche

you're either a pseud who got filtered or a pajeet/sandnigger who has a massive inferiority complex towards Whitoids
which is it?

Introduction to Magic is a practical method of working with the symbolism examined in The Hermetic Tradition. Which symbolism is a distinct thread traceable over at least 1700 years, hence the inclusion of texts relevant to its Hellenic and Roman antecedents.

>the syncretism of the different texts
Which then amounts to four pieces, all on Buddhism, which serve to demonstrate certain esoteric commonalities between different traditions - a fundamental idea expressed also by Guénon and Schuon. And Evola was very clear that they were separate traditions (see 7:57-13:22 of his video interview).

Unless you're baiting, i'm afraid you've just stepped onto a semantic problem here, anon.
What you understand as "traditional" (correct me if i'm wrong) is the WASP "bourgeois" american family of the XXth century.
The problem is that, when you talk about "traditionalism", you're actually referring to the traditional school of thought. By the traditionalist school standards, everything on the American way of life, since it's conception, is strictly modern: the revolutionary roots of your country, the prevalence of protestant Christianity, the capitalistic economic organization, the democratic political system; everything is deeply rooted on modern ideas, fundamentally linked to the so-called "bourgeois revolutions", and thus they are anti-traditionalist.
Now, most of the retards on this post probably have only read Julius Evola and regard all of Christianity as modern and anti-traditional. Since the core of the traditionalist school is the belief in the existence of perennial wisdom, this is not necessarily true, and it mostly depends on the author (for instance, nowadays there are those who even consider Seraphim Rose as part of the traditionalist school; consider also the works of Agostino Steuco, who coined the term "philosophia perennis" in the first place). Nevertheless, Protestantism, Lutheranism, Mormonism and so on, are indeed a modern phenomena and should be regarded as anti-traditional.
