This should never be done because not every perennialist is necessarily a traditionalist. For example, Madame Blavatsky was also a perennialist, but not a traditionalist. Additionally, traditionalists criticized Theosophy and Blavatsky.

The concept of the perennial philosophy is of course influential in some New Age circles. However, I'm wondering about the relevance of the section to this article. There are perennialist currents within many traditional religions as well as among the spiritual but not religious crowd, but these do not have their own sections in the article. If the New Age section is to remain, I would say it should focus on its role in the development and or popularization of perennialism. As of right now, the section simply defines the movement and states perennialism's influence, but does not elaborate on their relationship any further.

Another read-through makes me wonder about the relevance of the Transcendentalism section on the same basis. Although there are certainly affinities, I'm not seeing any tangible connections between Transcendetalism and perennialism as a school of thought. HappyWanderer15 (talk) 17:43, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
