In my studies I am starting to think about Iain McGilchrist's work, and I have begun to work my way through his 'The Master and His Emissary', which is an exploration of the different functions of the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and the impact this has had upon our culture. There is a good Youtube explanation of his work here:
I have been reading The Matter With Things, also by McGilchrist and it's definitely a lot of food for thought. It is true that Christianity in general has been somewhat lacking in a mystical core these days.
Rene Guenon said that the spiritual elite of Christianity need to learn from the East and figure out how to apply their insights to Christianity to revive this mystical core. So yeah, Christians definitely need to read some Guenon.
