>All truly traditional civilizations have their beginning in Hyperborea and Polar symbolism.
This was true for a certain period of time. Do you think that only primordial traditions pure and simple(which are polar) are traditional? Or do you also accept revelations and Prophets as reactualizations of those traditions but in a certain historical context, to certain groups of people? As a matter of fact, in Islam there is a reference in Ibn Arabi's work and probably in islamic esoterism in general about the Pole and a Polar Mountain. I am not an expert on this subject but I found a book in french, made by a guenonian/valsanian who apparently wrote about many interesting things from sufism and tried to make parallels between them and Guenon's work. This is a quote from the book(see pic related): "The word which designates the path is sabîl ; one of the meanings of sabîl is jihâd . The traditional expression fi sabîl Allâhi , commonly used for alms, also means "in holy combat". The color of the holy battle is red, that of the fire bird on the Polar Mountain, symbol of the Glorious Koran and of the power of qaf."
So many interesting books that aren't translated though, maybe we should all learn french...
