Within 16 minutes you succeeded to repeat, with all those words, what we immediately understood when reading Evola's words. Also, to think Evola was the only one to hint at this, Plato and Arestotle want to speak to you. They were living life while you were analysing meaning. Most philosophers lived in ways their supposed indirect acolytes need to be initiated into. They were LIVING! Aristotle fucked all day, Camus was living it up. Only in 12:36 you come into something interesting. Would we reject paradise in defiance of the divine promise? Can we even live up to it? Yet you don't follow up on it. Show some juice mate, read some Nietzsche, Camus, Aristotle, then Kripke, Singer, Dennett. This is just weak. ''All religions wanted a noble death.'' that is the unifying factor? Even though Pagan religions want that death to be violent? What about Buddhism (however disgustingly misunderstood in the West)? Hinduism is not in compliance with this. Even within Paganist cultures they would not agree with it. If you rationalize a valorous death, it isn't quite full of valor anymore.

There is little evidence that Julius Evola actually saw combat. His ''warrior's blood'' is just as much a romanticization as anyone who claims a poet knows death more deeply than a soldier does. Selling roses does not make you understand what it means to grow or give them. You better be more like Kierkegaard and actually go out and live, rather than think of what it and any action towards the door and beyond means. You find out by doing, and this Italian fuckwad won't help you. He wants you to be a racist version of an idolized Ancient Greek hero. Γαμήσου. Obviously it is fine to take notes from the books of fascists. Whatever terrors they facilitated, surely they had something beautiful to say while they were out to massacre half the world. I encourage it, if we have exhumed all there is to find in writers who aren't explicitly genocidal, we can look at their works to see, hey, they had something amazing to say too. My irk is that we haven't found everything liberatory writers, from Davidson to Singer, from Aristotle to Aquinas (forgive my being Western).... I'm not sure why we would exhume a philosopher alligned with the terribly evil forces of the previous age, in any other context than ''let us see how their evil worked?''. Instead we get ''Oh my god this fascist was so cool!''. I'd rather explore how Evola contributed to what was close to becoming the destruction of our society. Then again, democratically, I welcome this. If we are responsible with the content we're consuming, Evola could just be a snapshot of a time we can hopefully vanquish. Tl;dr: this seems like a celebration of a man's great work that was used for evil, and cannot be used for anything other than evil. Edit, addition: I have not seen combat, not in military, thank God. I have been in a fight and I have been stabbed, and there is nothing glorious about it. It is classic romanticization of murdering young blokes. It is romanticization of some shit that does not exist. There is nothing glorious about being shot to death on the whim of some political party or rich man. It is not beautiful to have a sword shoved down your bowels. There is nothing beautiful or romantic about it. It is beautiful when people bash heads and come to such violence only to realize it is not worth it, like I'm doing here! This is not worth it, this is not a discussion to be had, it is not fun to be stabbed it is not fun to stab it is not glorious to be stabbed it is not glorious to beat someone half to death. It is not fun, it is not beautiful, it is horrible and it is terrible and it will haunt you forever. Only people who haven't witnessed or processed it will claim otherwise. Combat is horrible. Having a man pull a knife is horrible. Getting stabbed and cut is horrible. There is nothing fun about it. Get your kicks somewhere else you fuckwits, you wouldn't even be fit to take it. If you REALLY have to try, go into martial arts, but even there, it's not fun. It's fucked. It's pain and irreparable damage. Yet this Evola guy thinks there exists some gallant knight on a white horse stained with blood, coming to save us all... from what?

great video G

I like Jung and it’s interesting but I think hitler was just as retarded as the rest of us and I won’t give him any more credit

This channel is a gem

DO NOT ASSUME THAT I HAVE COME TO BRING PEACE TO THE EARTH; I HAVE NOT COME TO BRING PEACE, BUT A SWORD. - MATTHEW 10:34

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. - John 14:6 There is nothing in Christian salvation that requires warfare. Even the most basic understanding of Christianity shows us this. Nothing gets us closer than faith and prayer.

Horror of consciousness; ONLY on the 4th rock-Y planet from our SUN.

The warrior, as it is meant in indigenous and shamanistic cultures and traditions, has nothing to do with war or being war-like. Carlos Castaneda/don Juan delves into this concept at length.

We don't have leaders, we have puppets and bureaucrats

The transcendent has been lost in the desert of modernity.

Is this why Islam wins?

Given the danger in war a soldier is definitely closer to finding out if there is a God or not !..This is total mumbo jumbo from the man who inspired Mussolini..A pompous ego maniac..This is Jihadist junk..

Good stuff man

For the record the allied powers of World War II we're not fighting for a transcendent cause they were playing policemen for the international cartel of financiers

Who has more conviction? Those who die for their cause, or live for their cause? The losers or the winners? By remembering the dead do the winners maintain their cause or betray it? Do they continue their mission or do they justify their position as winners and forsake their cause?

Really interesting discussion here, I agree wholeheartedly with Evola’s sentiment! I believe more fundamentally this is about the importance of action over thought, and that “warriors” or “heroes” are just a metaphor. What’s really important is dedicating your life to fighting for some higher principle, living out your beliefs rather than just thinking about them. Thinking alone is worthless, except insofar as it contributes to you discovering that cause to dedicate your life towards. I think to Evola it likely doesn’t even matter very much which higher principle you are living and dying for, as long as it’s for something which transcends the self. That’s what it means to be “spiritual” in this sense, to actively experience and manifest something which transcends the individual self. This is the crusade each of us must discover and undergo for ourselves.

Depends on the cause of the warrior and the wisdom of the scholar. The Islamic warrior you mentioned, even if he "theoretically" commits an action with spiritually good results by fighting, he is not noble if his cause is to plunder, rape, or anything immorale.

Fighting for Christ - a tragic irony, fighting for a man whose movement, known originally as "the way," was at first pacifistic. MLK is still the best contemporary version of Christ and not some berserker warrior.

Ancient Egypt, Rome and Greece are myths. Odin/Vodin/Wodan/Wotan/Wuotan. It translates as war leader, leader, in English. Root word being VOD, which is Serbian. e.g. tour guide - tursticki vodic water - voda sergeant - vodnik "Slavic", Srb Czernobog in American Gods calls Odin Wotan.

Interesting title (synchronicity). Will watch it later. Weak must not talk let alone lead. Which is what we have today.

Not necessarily! If the writer is writing despite the penalty of death for speaking out, then the writer as well as the soldier are the same.

ONLY AN ASSHOLE WHO GIVES THEMSELVES OVER TO A FAITH OF THE UNSEEN OR UNKNOWN COULD POSSIBLY THINK KILLING IN ITS NAME COULD BE A VIRTUOUS GOOD THING!!! A SCHOLAR THINKS SO HE DOESN'T ACT IN VAIN, AND THE WARRIOR ACTS BECAUSE HE HAS NEVER THOUGHT OF ANYTHING BUT HIS OWN GLORY!!!

you spelled "philosophy" incorrectly in the about channel section

I let myself to be of God's both as sword as well as the pen

Before I watch this, I'll say no He stood up for Germans when they were viciously exploited

There is no such Hadith. What the Prophet said was the exact opposite - "The ink of the scholars and the blood of the martyrs will be weighed on the Day of Resurrection, and the ink of the scholars will outweigh the blood of the martyrs" (Kinz Al-A'amal, 28715). Either Evola's memory is so heavily filtered through what he wants to be true that he made a mistake, or he intentionally distorted the Hadith. Either way, the man is an instrument of counter-Tradition and shouldn't be followed.

Greeks were fastidious about conveying their messages with a sonorous, clear voice. Stuttering was a no-no.

The Allies didn't fight for western victory. The allies won for the communist/Zionist and $$$$ The hebrews

Definitely ''Il barone immaginario'' Julius Evola spilled more ink than blood in his (pseudo) 'spiritual' quest, posing as a ''traditionalist, aristocratic, martial'' aristocrat to hide his low class origin. As a 'hermetic magus' and tantric guru dabbling in ''magia sexualis'' and an anti-Christian to boot. An impostor.

This was a really good video I'm a new subscriber

That God these people worship is Satan.

"To be, or not to be." That is the question. Hamlet defines the ultimate choice a conscious human being has. The rest is garbage. In fact this dilemma is the human consciousness and freedom.

Is this where fascists pretend to be tough guys lol. Wars now are fought with drones, so all your tough guy talk is just pathetic.

"the ink of the scholar is worth more than the blood from martyrs" Muhammad, a.k.a. Maha-Metteya

Ride the tiger you can see his stripes but you know he’s clean. Blessed is he who eats the lion for the lion shall become a man, cursed is he who is eaten by the lion for the lion shall become a man.

The warrior is closer to God than the scholars because the warrior has a close personal relationship with death. An appriciation and understanding scholars do not.🔥

nice 16 mins of saying absolutely nothing.

There is no greater sacrifice than one’s own life for something bigger than the person himself. That’s true faith, true loyalty and true commitment.

I don’t think this is a good comparison. We need the written and thoughtful word. Many times the words you speak or write or even read lands you in torture and death. I do not like this comparison.

The classical warrior, man to man is righteous. Modern warfare is something else. The way that western modern man fights war is..............

Interesting presentation, thank you!

The guy on this channel of a good friend of mine. His perspective on Wotan is very different from the dry regurgitations of academics. ruclips.net/user/livehWsOhJKLuPw?si=Dp6u6acgyOTcyIPP

TRUE

I think he's onto what he meant, but I think it's deeper than that. I am working on how to express that. Not quite there yet.

funnily enough the quote comes from a philosopher. Who does not likely know the Creator. Probably has distain towards people who pray. So it is illogical to believe him.

Closer to death and then what? No one knows. There is nothing stopping anyone in your audience from going to war. So spiritual. Go To War And Find Out GTWAFO. Today, there is honor in "having the conversation" on the Tubes. Powerful stuff. Read a good book and think about it a bit and then read another one. Or go make a chair. Do something nice for Grand Papa. If done with attention sincerely it will be so very spiritual.
