Review # 2 was written on 2013-10-15 00:00:00 Dallas Hyatt It is astonishing when we know that this book was written in 1924 and it is indeed still valid and what René foreseen already happened and even to its extreme extend. The work in this book can be an infrastructure if the West ever want to reconcile with the East , but only on true intellectual principles. Where as the modern western civilisation is the only - among all other civilisations - that is distorted and deviated from any real path by completely negation of a supreme metaphysical order , that is indeed the absolute dominant of all the forms that exists under the hierarchy of the universe. As usual , René is making himself clear and straight to the point without any miss-understanding , although this was very hard to do as even the words and characters are deficient in explaining what is beyond them, that also may seems arrogant to the reader ,. Indeed it is not an easy thing for his contemporaries to assimilate or even accept . The writer himself mention that he is not expecting more than one or two individual to fully assimilate and understand his point. But even though with all that evil and distortion comes with this modern world , we shall be aware of the reasons behind all that as he quoted at the last sentence of this rich book : " The only ones who doubt this are those who do not know that all the partial and transitory dis-equiibrium go necessarily to make up the great equilibrium of the Universe" !
