First of all, we must say that many of the things that Guénon said and wrote had a sense in the situation he was in, that is to say the Thirties and Fourties of Last Century of Last Millennium. What is remained of all this… The Principles, the basic views about modern world - The Reign Of Quantity – and its **necessary** conclusion and ending: The Antichrist’s Reign…
What real matters is to maintain akin to the basic core of the Work, leaving aside what does not function any more…
Unfortunately what is usually done is the exact opposite!
So, let’s try to amalgamate around few basic Points the Whole Guénon’s Work for what is valid today, taht is to say Principles and some important, very important applications to the situation we’re in…
First Point: The Unity of the traditional form **beyond** their differences and the Existence of a Supreme Centre and a Supreme Tradition. This last one is **not** a distinguished form but instead like the White Colour it is composed of ****all**** the different colours, each one of these last ones maintains its specificity. So the particular does not necessarily oppose the Universal…
Second Point: The human development, both in the individual and in the more-than-individual levels… All this has many consequences that we cannot now develop distinctively but that are implicit in this affirmation…
Third Point: The Destiny promised to mankind in the End of this Cycle. The Cycles’ theory. We are in the end of Kali-Yuga, with all its consequences. When humanity at large loses the bond with The Centre then it is modern world, that is to say The Reign of Quantity… When even the last bonds in the modern world are lost it is the phase of dissolution, the phase we’re in… This phase cannot arrive at the plain dissolution for it can only achieve the pulverization, that is to say that to the big concetrations of modern world it finally comes a stage, in which we’re in from some decades, when they start to dissolve. But all this is insufficient so it is **necessary** that the forces of inferior psychism may be evoked. This is the Reign of The Antichrist in Guénon’s language.
Who doesn’t accept these three Points **no matter** he can quote Guénon’s words even each one after the other, he’s - or she’s – out of the **vision** that that Work brings with it…
The Centre is where the Lord of The World – Who is far far different from the Prince of **this** world!! – is…
To say what this function is would be long, too long for a blog…
What is important in this moment to say is that that function exists…
No matter if this function is understood – or accepted – or not…
