Soul Kitchen: Transgender and Return of the Soul

A long time ago Rene Guenon made a prediction. He conjectured something along the lines of the return of traditional understanding of the man and world, albeit with inverted quality - a sort of advent of anti-man and anti-world. In this podcast we point out a peculiar tendency inside the "transgender population" to speak of themselves as disembodied 'souls', thus putting the soul back in the public discourse, form whence it was banished. How this comes to pass, why is it an inversion of the original notion of the soul and what might be possible trends are some of the questioned answered.

Osnovni pojmovi metafizike: Duša

Pasionirani čitatelj postavio je KT pitanje: "Što je duša?" Dok nitko ništa nije pitao, bilo je jasno što je, no jednom kad je palo pitanje, odgovora niotkud. No ipak, nakon kraće konzultacije klasične literature, malo introspekcije, par pitanja Bogu (još nije odgovorio), kakav takav odgovor se kristalizirao. U ovom podcastu bavimo se pojmom duše u tradicionalnoj metafizici na osnovi tri zamjenjive definicije: duše kao supstancijalnog oblika, duše kao entelehije i duše kao čina tijela. Otud se priča račva u par pravaca: postavlja se pitanje odnosa duše i tijela, razlike mogućnosti i zbiljnosti, neadekvatnosti moderne filozofije za ovakva pitanja, etc, etc.

Ask Kali: What is Soul?

n this episode of KT Q&A podcast, we address the request of our regular reader. In summary, we answer the question: what is soul? The subjects contained therein are the nature of soul, its relation to body, what it means for something to be substantial form, traditional understanding of actuality/energy and possibility/potency, unity of human being provided by the soul, soul as a "horizon" (Thomas Aquinas) between physical and spiritual world, the powers of the soul and the critique of many souls instead of one, potentially posthumanist implications of denying the unity of the soul and much more.

Suicide Bombers of Modernity

Is there a substantial difference between revolutionaries of the Left and Right? Or, conversely, is there an even deeper identity between nihilists of traditional and progressive bent? What does it mean to be "against the modern world"? KT offers some answers.

Od trnja do žlijezda

Politički interseks slijedeći je stupanj u odmotavanju LGBTIQ spirale, gdje se spol, a ne naprosto rod, pretvara u titrajući spektar. Ima li povratka, hoće li prirodne znanosti vratiti zdrav razum i može li bijeg u zoološki vrt, odnosno nastojanje da se pobjegne od čovjekove prave prirode u životinjstvo, pomoći? Na ta pitanja nakon analize, naravno, slijedi jednoznačno negativan odgovor.

Basic Notions of Metaphysics: System, pt.1

In our day and age, the word "system" is as prevalent as it is ambivalent; moreover, bearing in mind that we are living in an epoch supposedly deprived of metaphysics, 'system' sometimes appears to be an ersatz formula for something that used to be a metaphysical notion. However, no age is free from metaphysics and 'system' is a metaphysical notion tailor made by modernity for modernity, and beyond. In this podcast we'll trace the genesis of the system principle and contrast it to traditional metaphysics, to which the system is as repugnant as it gets, although its very rarely perceived as such by contemporary historians and philosophers. In this episode we take an example of system building thinking from early German Idealism, from J.G. Fichte's Wissenschaftlehre.

Hegel, Marx and Sustainable Development: A Study in Incompatible,Pt. 2

Sustainable development is fundamentally incompatible with some of the main supposition of Karl Marx and, by derivation, Marxism. In the second and final episode of our podcast on the subject, we lay down and compare some of the fundamental ontological propositions of sustainable development and Karl Marx to demonstrate their incompatibility.

Hegel, Marx and Sustainable Development: A Study in Incompatible, Pt.1

The ease with which a number of popular contemporary conservatives identify ontology and politics of sustainable development (aka 'degrowth', 'The Great Reset', 'green politics', etc.) with Marxism and its derivations is comparable only to their ignorance of the original philosophical assumptions of Karl Marx and their roots in classical German philosophy; ignorance that, in a peculiar sense, appears so blatant that it seems almost wilful. To set the record straight, in the series of podcasts we'll outline the rift existing between these two, modern and postmodern, totalitarian projects, based on their root assumptions. In the first episode we sketch the basic propositions of Hegel's metaphysics that inspired Marx' project.
