>>It is precisely because Amrita has a quality so divine that it is proper to subject oneself to all that it entails and therefore also to its arduous preparation, and to put it on the table before food, so that it may be not found lacking in quality. This, of course, is perfectly in harmony with the doctrines of almost all traditional schools. Thus it is urged that the divine nectar be milked and consumed as a Sacrament by the initiated. Without dwelling on the matter any longer, we will only note that while mating, a European male can (at best) be expected to produce far less of the nectar than a Negroid male of comparable stature, and that this difference in aptitude will certainly be passed on through the generations.

thats a shoop btw, this is his real face

Guenon believed in the traditional healing power of the Amrita-Sacrament (that is a pretty normal Upanishadic belief).

>Buddha never actually attacked or offered any refutation of any of the Upanishads which had already been circulating around India for several hundred years before him. Buddhists invented a mythos which they find comforting about Buddha defeating the ideas of Hinduism in debate but Buddha never actually addressed the ideas that would soon come to form the very center of Hindu thought. In fact in the one Sutta in the whole Pali Canon in which one argue that something resembling an Upanishadic doctrine is the Brahma-nimantanika Sutta (MN 49) in which Brahma-Baka in a few brief sentences mentions the idea of the Absolute (as an intelligence or entity which is) constant, permanent, birthless and deathless; but here the Buddha funny enough despite his reputation among Buddhists doesn't actually offer any good arguments for why it's wrong but instead just has to rely on his display of magic superpowers instead to turn invisible in order to win the debate through a display of powers.
That verse wasn't actually made to offer 'argumentation' (Buddha himself actually advised against being an autistic 'debate-bro' douchebag like Shankara), it was more allegorical which is funny coming from someone who's versed in the Upanishads, a text which makes the PC look like a science text book in comparison. Also quite funny you mention the mythos of Buddha defeating Hindus in debate when Hindus themselves absolutely love to gloat in their own texts that they LOGICALLY DESTROYED Buddhists in debate. In fact Advaitins to this day still maintain the idea that Shankara traveled throughout all of India and 'humiliated' all non-Advaitins to the point that they 'accepted Advaita' (despite being a minority position among Hindus even back then), they are proud of this unsubstantiated belief.

does this look like the face of someone who would lie to you about retroactively refuting something?

Convince me of Rene Guenon's thought, and why should Europe become Islam? (lol)

I think you should stop caring about what others think of others and think of how others think might help you think for yourself to think on you own.
