SUMMARY:Esotericism and Modern Life: A René Guénon Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Fool\, in association with Jeffrey Grunthaner\, presents a weekly reading and discussion group focused on the work of René Guénon. \n\n\n\nGuénon was a French-born metaphysician whose work explores perennialism\, sacred symbology\, and initiatic history. Our discussions will center on his seminal work The Crisis of the Modern World\, covering topics such as the limits of rationalism\, the divergence between East and West\, metaphysics versus theology\, and the place (or absence thereof) of esotericism in modern life. \n\n\n\nParticipants are encouraged to bring physical copies of the book\, though it’s also available online: The Crisis of the Modern World. \n\n\n\nThe group will meet once a week in the evenings over the course of a month\, starting April 8th \n\n\n\nat 20h. Drop-ins are welcome\, and no prior acquaintance with metaphysics or esotericism is required. Ideally\, we’ll read Guénon’s book through together and reflect on his ideas as we go along.  \n\n\n\nDiscussions are likely to appeal especially to persons interested in philosophy\, spirituality\, or esoteric traditions. \n\n\n\nRefreshments will be available for purchase courtesy of The Fool.  \n\n\n\nA sliding-scale donation of €8–15 helps support the space and is kindly appreciated.
