This video delves into the philosophical and esoteric realms of Julius Evola, focusing on the concept of ‘Deification’ or ‘Becoming God’ as a central theme in his work. Evola’s journey, marked by a quest to transcend human limitations, is explored through his engagement with magic, Tantrism, and concepts of salvation and spiritual development. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of studying controversial figures like Evola in academic discourse, emphasizing the importance of critical evaluation and open inquiry in understanding historical and philosophical contexts. The video concludes by acknowledging Evola’s contributions to introducing Tantrism, Alchemy, and Zen Buddhism to Italian audiences, and his influence on intellectuals like Mircea Eliade and Carl Gustav Jung.
