What did Guénon think about modern world views?

  • They are flawed

  • They are perfect

  • They are irrelevant

  • They are superior

Answer

They are flawed, according to Guénon, because they are based on a misunderstanding of the nature of reality. Modern world views tend to be materialistic and rationalistic, and they focus on the external world of objects and events. Guénon, however, believed that the true reality is spiritual and transcendent, and that the external world is only a reflection of this deeper reality.
