give me some of the examples of the "little else" if you wouldn't mind?

I don't agree that Eastern civilizations are fundamentally pro-tradition while the West since the Greeks is fundamentally anti-tradition

I don't agree that Catholicism represents the best chance of restoring vitality to the West

I don't agree that the West both prizes action over contemplation and is simultaneously overly rational

I don't agree that the West's core flaw is a lack of religiosity or attunement to spiritual matters

I DO agree that Western science is somewhat fragmented and often misses key things because "experts" specialize in a narrow area without understanding how that narrow area interacts with the broader whole

so then, if a return to Tradition is not in the cards for you as a solution, what then are you after for the masses?

... they are not going to be thinking about the subtleties - so whats the solution for the majority of people who are unable to think for themselves?

THIS is one of the reasons TRADITION is so valuable as it offers both the esoteric and the exoteric, at varying degrees, for an entire spectrum of people with varying degrees of intelligence, understanding, spiritual inclinations, even responsibilities...

As you seem to reject this tack, what are you going to replace it with?

You, apparently, leave no room for something like Divine Providence or Revelation, to guide "humanity" to something new that offers the same depth and breadth of utility for both civilization and the internal lives of its members...

So what then?

To a very rough approximation, I think the West needs paganism rather than Christianity.

you familiar with Evola's writings? another "Traditionalist" whose profound writings often conflict with Guenon's...

seems to me you have some false dichotomies regarding the school of Traditionalism and the Ancient World vs. Modern...

Why? because Evola and Guenon are both well-known and respected by folks on both sides of this, including myself....

anyway, your original presumption about my goals and intentions is a bit limited as I am open to much more than your comment seemed to indicate.

whichever way, return to Revelatory Tradition, or the Strong Gods of Old, seems to offer something much better than whats going on now.... I just don't forsee the masses gravitating to paganism, or for that matter, IT being a benefit and adhering to intended outcomes (prevention of the destruction of whites and their civilization-type) simply because they are not sophisticated enough. My general impression is that it would breed just a different (perhaps though better) chaos like we have today...

I think poorly of them both.
