Every day should be Evola Day.
Evola day Evola day I say.
No

@@danwroy yea
The most relevant thinker in the modern world along with the likes of Nietzsche, Spengler, Schopenhauer, etc.
I'm quite glad you (AA) went from Lolbertarianism to Radical Traditionalism. I'm sure this'll be pretty good!
Watching this transformation over the years has been fascinating. I'm glad he continued his pursuit of knowledge at a time when it was popular for milquetoast centrists to ground their heels into their ambiguous worldview, or just drift further left
and it mirrors my own journey, which is pretty cool
The gamer to traditionalist pipeline is real.
@Scrotchy McDumpwaffle I think our real necessity, and ultimate goal, is to synthesize post- with pre-liberal culture into one. To follow inheritance and Tradition, not freedom. To put absolute duty upon oneself. But to also prioritize our (racial) group. That is what we should aim for, I believe.
@@miguelafonso4466 Good in theory, horrifying in practice. Esoteric knowledge is difficult enough to understand and practice in the hands of an intellectual elite, in the hands of the warriors or the peasants, it's total delusion.
The virgin pride month vs the chad Evola day!
The 4 castes explain why it’s so hard to transition out of the military if you have the self identify as a warrior. Society has no place for warriors whatsoever, and we are told to become merchants. It’s the polar opposite.
We are manipulated to fight the wrong enemy and to welcome and worship the real enemy.
Makes a lot of sense
Not only did he think that myths are better at recording transcendental truths but he found that myths from different nations all over world have same elements. If Incas, Aztecs, Japanese, Semites, Indians and Greeks all had same or very similar mythical record of something, that it is probably true even if physical evidence shows otherwise. For example - glorious human demigods that lived for centuries.
Holly land in west (myth of Taut-ha Denan of Celts/Atlantis of Greeks, Undying lands in Slavic myth) - Idea of Atlantis and even greater Hyperborea was included by Tolkien in his works.
Valinor is Hyperborea - land of undying and light. Atlantis is Numenor.
@Koenig Barbarossa Same is present in Spenglers works.
@@drarsen33 Valinor is hyperborean and Numenor is Atlantis? Can you explain further? Might also be a cool addition to Evola Day if there was a video on this.
@@reilysmith5187 That is something that I have been working on.
Lotr is basically grail myth turned on its head with ring being antigrail. I am not sure will I make it an essay or in video format.
Anyhow - in his works Evola states that there are two lands Atlantis and Hyperborea. Hyperborea was more exalted and more perfect and Atlantians are actually step down from Hyperborea.
Hyperborea was closed of to Atlantians for some reason - climate change, fall from grace, degeneration or something of sort.
In Tolkien's work you have Numenor which was pinnacle of humanity but there was further out on even holier land of Aman/Valinor was still closed of to Numenorians.
Hyperborea "is" land of immortals and of eternal day. Valinor is also land of immortals and land of tree light that shined without stop (before Morgoth and Ungoliath killed the trees).
@@drarsen33 Thanks for the great reply. This indeed is interesting stuff. I've only been recently delving deeper in lore of the lotr and understand the reference to the tree of light. But this additional traditional aspect is new to me. Hope you can finish it in some way.
Based old Italian mystic is based
Today we're getting spoiled as if we were 5 years old and visiting our grandparents.
That's a good way of putting it.
I'm not super traditionalist, but i appreciate AA's videos.
Been looking to getting into Evola. Started with the Grail book as it’s recommended for a starter. Gasping to read Revolt against the Modern World
Yeah I started with “Ride the Tiger” without any prior knowledge. Spent the majority of my time researching works he cited in an attempt to understand the concepts and material . Been working on it over the past 3 weeks in my free time and have only reached and come to relatively understand up to chapter 9. I understand to a certain degree the fundamentals but truly grasping his work without large amounts of prior knowledge is a process.
Looking forward to this
Academic agent has really evolved and matured from the 2016 days. Great content.
Julius Evola has been rebaptised Julius ‘ebola’ by my iphone’s swipe keyboard.
😂 😂
What is this epic tune. I was mildly looking forward to this day but now I am psyched
National anthem of the Roman republic.
What I would say is “connecting with nature” requires a tremendous amount of self discipline.
How do you know if you've connected?
@@damaristighe3227
Without sounding cringe.
You feel at one with yourself, as in your consciousness expands from the mind to the whole body, your self transcends your conscious ego. And then beyond that to the world around you, and if you’re really good or lucky, to the universe itself.
I read, Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now which was for me the only means that articulated a route to this. I think he has an interview with Dave Rubin which summarises the key concepts.
There is a Jungian underpinning to what he says. And he has some interesting interpretations of Christian ideas, such as what the Kingdom of God really means etc.
For me it has been very useful anyway.
Some might say it’s boomer secular spiritualist crap and purely individual. But actually it has allowed me to look again at Christianity.
An on going process.
Evola was kinda spittin bars
This guy is the intellectual superdark web, accessible only to those already in the intellectual dark web
leading to an abyss that leads to another world
and yes,i said it,another world.

Autarkia
No dialogue with modernity
Spirit > blood
The amount of Hindu scripture Evola based his concepts on is astounding. Never thought a fascist would be inspired from a religion like Hinduism.
India is Based.
Hinduism is European paganism is traditionalism is natural and therefore is based beyond belief
Why not? The great Indologist and Tibetologist Giuseppe Tucci supported fascism. Vedic culture is related to other arya civilizations. The swastika is also a symbol in Hinduism. Sanskrit is a language of the Indo-European family. The caste system also had a racialist component, particularly in the upper varnas and in eras such as Treta and Dvapara.
@@bean5618 One usually finds it's the people who've never read the Hindu/Buddhist texts who get the most out of it.
Why not? Hinduism was brought to India by *Aryans*, it is well documented (The Aryan Invasion). This is also why there are castes of Indian, different levels of whiteness in their country.
i just got Evola's genious, and it's quite amazing how overlapping his philosophy is with Vedic literature
If you added music in the background like your Chicago School vs. the Austrian School this video would have been perfect.
But keep up the good work AA!!
I and many others find the use of background music to be an unwelcome distraction, and that is true even if the music is pleasant.
I now see why academic agent holds Evola in such high regard...
What do you mean?
EVERYDAY should be Julius Evola day! ☺️
He kinda cute
Wtf bro
Wtf indeed

I had a question about evola,
I wanted to know more about the "aristocratic individual" I've heard about evola, but I am dealing with a friend who says. "An individual who seeks fulfillment through individuality and spiritual transformation, and that he argued the state should do that"
is this true? Where can I find proof to validify his point?
In the age of the Kali Yuga the state cannot possibly do this. In the golden age perhaps, but not now.

What was Evola's opinion of Ancient Sumer and Babylon?
He kinda excluded people of African decent. Makes sense his contemporaries would have chastised him
@@tjones1191 Sumer and Babylon weren't black African, or African at all.
He saw them originally as close to the tradition but later they have spiritually fallen pretty early
@@tjones1191sumers and babylonians weren't not Africans, they were middle eastern that looks like modern day middle eastern. you dork
Africans are intellectually useless. @@tjones1191
Not all things you're naming on circa 5:00 are modern nonsense.
Some existed both in aforementioned cultures and in 'lesser' cultures around - and before civilization as we know it had emerged.
There are concepts that I disagree with furter in the video, but I guess it's pointless to say which, cause it only could lead to smth meaningful if we had a long sophisticated discussion (not offering it - at least as of now).

Evola and Nietzsche. Without them I would have ended up in a mental asylum. Mental institutions are far more sane and normal than today´s political correct culture marxist Kali Yuga.
You still might end up in an asylum, just not by your own admission.
i did becaus i read nietzsche without evola
I do not think you can make a society based on Evolian principles. I realized this after talking to my Christian friend. The ideology must pander to the underclass and give them some source of escape to deal with their mediocrity or out right low status in life. Which is why religions like Christianity and Islam are so dominant, and the future ideology of right would be some variation on that. Evola would be restricted to few right wing circles with very little power or influence.
somemeone from any class can do something with quality that brings meaning and purpose and spirituality. A baker can bake a loaf of bread from scratch that could beat anything you get from a mega-corp.
@@claudiabottom4086 I do not know, but maybe seeing sinners burn in hell is more satisfying than baking bread in your ethno-state.
Evola kind of was against early Christianity, and said it got better when the knights Templar and the holy grail.
Christianity is okay as long as it's not the universalism type and definitely below the priority unlike race/genetics
"Evolian principles" are those principles which every right thinking man held true before the Renaissance, and even then it was held somewhat until the French Revolution. You absolutely can make a society based off his principles, because they already have existed.
The caste system:
Warrior (homeless with ptsd) Priest (kiddie fiddle) Merchant (yeah) Peasant (Brexiteer)

I don't understand "the spirit above the blood"?
TL;DR If spiritually you aren't connected to the parts of your race, then blood doesn't mean anything if you're spiritually not like the blood, or something along those lines.
@@guts9817 What do you mean
"Parts of the race"
I tend to think the blood determines the manifestation of the spirit
@@kali11123By parts I would mean generally the attributes or components which makes a certain race a race. Blood is only finite, and like Evola himself said, only has a meaning of great importance only in a decadent age. However, if one is spiritually tied to each part of the race which his soul was made for, he has no concern to prove himself to be a part of the race with just blood.
Ok basically Evola divided man in three parts: spirit(the trascendental part) soul (the "ethical" part) and the body.
For Evola the original hyperborean man-gods where elevated spiritually but they gradually have fallen of their spirit, and then today humanity is losing their "soul".
To be fair for Evola if you are genetically pure but with no spiritual qualities you have nothing special at all.
@@kali11123to be unmanifest

This is interesting, but what if you're gay? Becuase I'm pretty curious about this stuff (Evola, Nrx, Tradition, etc.) But I also happen to be same sex attracted? I don't think they like that...
Evola wasn't some puritan. See his discussion in Eros and the Mysteries of Love on this matter. This is not a bad breakdown: attackthesystem.com/2012/07/19/beyond-prudery-and-perversion-the-sexual-aesthetics-and-metaphysics-of-julius-evola/
You know.
This is some bullshit. Especially the "Myth is truer than recorded history" bit.
That is a VERY difficult thing to get one's head around and when I first read it, I put the book down and didn't pick it up again for about 6 months.
What's with the obsession to discount all the truths the greeks got from Kemet?
this is basically hinduism
He's possibly the most sane of the reactionary conservatives of the 19th century. I don't agree with much of his stuff but he's a decent writer and well-researched. Unfortunately, he's the victim of his own ego, so out of touch with reality and his writings and obsessions seem like a redemptive act against his "abstract painting" era, notice how he repeats ad infinitum about order and hierarchy in his work.
Iron pill.
I think Styxhexenhammer had a video about the left hand path at one point
If you can transcend Kali Yuga... there is no need to wait until the Golden Age. It's better to be out of here the sooner than later. All four Ages are nonetheless illusionary, none of them is the real thing. It seems to me Kali Yuga offers the best chance to do so... hardship motives better than anything else and this is what we have, we have to give it some love.
great
Next to Alain de Benoist, Evola is my favorite traditionalist philosopher.
Says the leftist syndicalist.
I took thr day off .
Can I re upload your Evola Videos for a german public?
Evola missed the Kabbalah witches, who are in fact, the ruling class of the present era.
