actually thank you.

there are many things i want to read before evola. and it looks like the kind of things that i might not exactly take seriously. but thank you…

>>8399

i've read ride the tiger and started on revolt against the modern world and shit doesn't get more serious than this


 No.8416

>>8412

i didn't mean to offend you.

it's just that evola's reputation for esoterism sort of turns me off.

Unless you've got some decent religious studies under your belt, know what esotericism actually is, and do not like it, I wouldn't knock Evola.

Esoteric practices have nothing to do with talking to mystical beings, worshipping the devil, or any other stupid thing that has wrongly become associated with esotericism today.

Esotericism is all about achieving knowledge of self (the philosophical concept). Nothing more. And it's completely compatible with atheism and science.

It's traditional spirituality, and it's not to be confused with the self serving nonsense that passes as "spirituality" today.

If you're interested in learning why modern society is so sick, and why materialism, hedonism, etc. etc. etc. is so bad, reading Evola's esoteric books will serve you well.

They will provide you with an objective base knowledge of what makes society tick, and what makes it decay.

the dictionary definition says you're right, i guess.

Looks like your typical sacred stuff. It's the same old pitch to change yourself to fit his ideas, instead of cutting them entirely.

>this whole post

top fucking kek man

>>8482

how's that? nothing he says is wrong


 No.8502

>>8490

He doesn't know what esoteric means. He defines it as a quality of Esotericism instead of a simple adjective that means "difficult to understand". Never mind that Esotericism is a broad term applied to many philosophies deemed rejected knowledge.
