"Be radical, have principles, be absolute, be that which the bourgeoisie calls an extremist: give yourself without counting or calculating, don't accept what they call ‘the reality of life' and act in such a way that you won't be accepted by that kind of ‘life', never abandon the principle of struggle."
Julius Evola
Philosophical Beliefs
Spiritual Racism 
Evola believed in racism of the body, soul, and spirit, emphasizing the importance of the spirit. He thought races declined when their spirit weakened. Influenced by Ludwig Ferdinand Clauss, he saw physical and spiritual race as separate due to mixing. Some racists found his "spiritual racism" puzzling. Like René Guénon, Evola thought humanity was in the Kali Yuga, a dark age of materialism. He saw Italian fascism and Nazism as ways to revive the celestial Aryan race. Evola referred to mythological super-races like the Hyperboreans, claiming Aryan men descended from them. Critics questioned his theory, noting many Aryans didn't match Hyperborean traits. Evola believed blood and race mattered because they were deeply tied to traditions and acted as formative energies, a viewpoint some saw as pseudo-scientific.
