The Crisis Of The Modern World (Guenon, Rene. Works.) by René Guénon
An Analysis of the Modern World from a Traditional Perspective
The book critically examines the spiritual and intellectual decline of the modern world, attributing this crisis to the abandonment of traditional metaphysical principles in favor of materialism and rationalism. It argues that the modern emphasis on progress and innovation has led to a disconnection from timeless truths and a loss of deeper meaning in life. The author calls for a return to traditional wisdom and a reorientation towards the sacred to address the profound existential and cultural challenges facing contemporary society.
