Nice
My 0.02% knowledge of Sanskrit paid off
When I was a kid, I thought Sanskrit was “Sand script” and it was written in hieroglyphics and is what middle easterners spoke
@ophiuchus me too!
@ophiuchus Re: IE buddhist creed, hmm I wonder if it can be considered a traditional european religion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greco-Buddhism
We wuz Buddha
Well that sounds like quite the rabbit hole to go down...
@missliterallywho. Cat person here and I'm about as far right as they get.
I get it though, I'm the exception, not the rule.
@Sam Anderson Yep I just wound up reading this as a consequence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zarmanochegas an Indian Buddhist who set himself on fire in Athens and his burial site became a huge attraction there https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zarmanochegas
Cats won
@ThisIsChris someone hasn’t read Evola’s “the doctrine of awakening”
@ophiuchus yeah. to be honest I'm turned off to this continental philosophy stuff
I'd rather think about the distinction between a type and a token
There’s also a Survive the Jive kinda synopsis of it
@ophiuchus "Survive the Jive" oh awesome I'd never seen this before, time to dive in
A Guidebook for Right Wing Youth is the only Evola I have read. Its a good read because it is more political than metaphysical
@Sam Anderson that sounds straightforward, thanks
@missliterallywho Possibly- he was a high caste Nepali thousands of years ago who possibly had blue eyes. Bodhidharma, the person credited with bringing chan or Zen Buddhism to japan, is also depicted as being an Indian with red hair and blue eyes.
Also remember that the Dalai Lama is on our side
@Nerv - VA this is the same guy i think you mentioned yesterday https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ita4g_oDyns
@NateDahl76 thanks!
India’s such a weird place
BAP is saying that I’m Buddha clearly.
You want to be fascinated with the dusty pink and orange temples and mango trees and the strange animals but it just smells too bad
I can't believe how fast things are moving. What will things be like in 2020? 2024?
KEEP OPTICS, THE RIDE IS JUST STARTIG
@ChippedStones omg r u Barron?
My mum says I can’t talk to strangers on interwebs
Just saw a video posted of LoS burning the Talmud, Israeli flag, and seig heiling while condemning the Jew as the main enemy of the Southern Nation.
The factual points are correct, but the framing is so bad I want to jump out a window
how have these people not learned optics yet
So apparently Robert Putnam (who converted to Judaism bc his wife is Jewish) wrote a book called “Better Together” with (you guessed it) Lewis Feldstein, and Don Cohen. So basically trying to walk back “Bowling Alone”.
@Sam Anderson Too little too late. Damage control.
that's heavily disappointing
@Sam Southern - TN Oof. Boomers or Feds or both in LotS. Best IE comment is no comment. Let's be the well adjusted "Good Cop" by comparison to tLotS's disfunction
I just want to reach out to the good people still left in the League that know better than this
What did LotS do wrong
when they went jackboot militant in 16
