About this listen

"East and West" by Julius Evola is a philosophical treatment of both Oriental and Occidental spiritual traditions, examining their respective worldviews, cultural values, and metaphysical principles.

In this work, Evola discusses the impact of modernity on spiritual life, advocating for a return to traditional, transcendent values as a means to counteract contemporary materialism and nihilism. He emphasizes the significance of initiation, spiritual hierarchy, and the pursuit of higher knowledge, drawing from various religious sources. The book ultimately seeks to highlight a synthesis of Eastern and Western esoteric thinking, proposing that a deeper understanding of both can lead to a more profound spiritual awakening.

Julius Evola (1898-1974) was an Italian philosopher, esotericist, and writer known for his complex and often controversial ideas. His writings emphasize the importance of spiritual and cultural traditions and advocate for a return to what he perceived as a more authentic, hierarchical society. His ideas often reflect a critiques of materialism and liberalism, both of which he believed led to societal decay.
