Serpentine Wisdom

"They burn with fire—we burn with water; they wash with water—we wash with fire."
— Van Helmont

Occultism possesses an elusive, serpentine quality—subtle yet essential. Ordinary minds cling to rigid ideals, moralities, and definitions of strength and wisdom. But occultism operates differently: it moves unseen, from the opposite direction, unsettling those who believe themselves secure.

The true occultist defies ordinary measurement. His path is impenetrable; his actions, inscrutable. Even those closest to him—friends, lovers—know only a fraction of his being. Only upon entering his domain do they sense the abyss beneath their feet.

Many today proclaim themselves occultists, initiates, or masters, craving recognition. Yet the genuine adept remains hidden, indifferent to external judgment. He does not seek validation, nor does he react to provocation. He turns the other cheek—not from weakness, but because he dictates the rules. He is untouchable, free from the need for self-affirmation.

The deeper the occultist's mastery, the more his influence remains unseen. His targets believe themselves free, unaware of his hand. Western distortions of occultism—tainted by profane prejudices—obscure its true nature. Most speak without knowing; few grasp that here, will is not will, action is not action, the Self is not the Self.

Lao-tzu’s Tao Te Ching embodies this wisdom: absolute, surgical, free of human limitation. Confucius, obsessed with tradition, once sought Lao-tzu’s counsel and later reflected: "One may trap animals, catch fish with nets, or birds with arrows—but how does one capture the dragon soaring beyond the clouds?"

The Tao Te Ching reveals the Fulfilled One—elusive, ambiguous, beyond ordinary perception. "The Way that is the Way is not the ordinary way." Men chase illusions: they construct personalities, clutch at possessions, scream "Me! Me! Me!"—unaware this is mere fever, a prelude to death.

True individuality is not what men believe. The Fulfilled One loses himself to become himself. He empties to achieve fullness, conceals to reveal, gives to possess. He moves without trace, acts without doing, wins without struggle. His strength lies in flexibility, his victory in yielding.

Water, formless yet unstoppable, defeats the rigid. The tools of life are subtle; the tools of death, hard and crude. The unseen directs the seen. The strong expose themselves—and are cut down. The wise remain hidden, striking where no resistance exists.

The modern cult of effort and struggle is folly. Men crave action to feel themselves, not to attain. But when resistance vanishes, they collapse like soap bubbles. Death shatters their illusions, dissolving them into the formless void—the dragon’s domain.

To level out, to be silent, to disappear—this is the Way. The voice without words, the sight without objects, the action without movement. The fish cannot survive outside the depths; the ordinary man cannot grasp this wisdom.

Those bitten by the dragon wield an invisible force. They command without speaking, win without fighting, and remain—always—unseen.

Metaphysical part:

Metaphysics is meta-physical (beyond the physical). It transcends the material plane. The "meta-physical" denotes the supra-sensible, eternal realm—the domain of absolute principles, untouched by modernity’s degeneration. It is the world of Being, opposed to becoming; of Spirit, not matter.

### What Is “Metaphysical Reality”?

The term "metaphysical reality" frequently appears as a central concept in various esoteric teachings. To clarify its meaning, we begin with its etymological definition: metaphysics refers to that which is beyond the physical. However, "physical" here should not be conflated with modern physics or philosophical metaphysics, as both are distorted by abstraction and empiricism.

Instead, we take "physical" in its traditional sense—pertaining to bodily existence, bound by space and time. Thus, the "metaphysical" refers to:
1. Objectively: States of being free from spatial and temporal conditions.
2. Subjectively: Consciousness experiencing reality beyond these conditions.

Common perception, limited to bodily experience, instinctively equates reality with corporeality, making "metaphysical reality" seem contradictory. However, initiation allows one to transcend this limitation, preserving consciousness beyond bodily dissolution—akin to voluntary death and rebirth.

Philosophical critique further reveals that space and time are not inherent to reality but are cognitive frameworks imposed by human perception. Thus, suspending these frameworks opens the way to other modes of experience, where reality appears non-corporeal.

Yet "metaphysical reality" is not a singular state but encompasses multiple planes of existence, far beyond simplistic dualities (e.g., "this world" vs. "the beyond"). The physical world is merely one manifestation among many—symbolized in traditional cosmology by planetary and zodiacal hierarchies, each representing distinct metaphysical worlds.

Death, in this view, is not an absolute end but a transition between states. Initiatic "deaths" and "rebirths" mark shifts in consciousness, each unveiling new existential planes.

### Philosophical Considerations

Philosophical realism, which posits reality as independent of the observer, aligns with bodily experience but fails in metaphysical contexts. Idealism, conversely, sees reality as an act of consciousness—an approach more suited to metaphysical experience, where subject and object merge.

Traditional doctrines (Vedanta, Neoplatonism) affirm this anti-dualistic cognition. Plotinus speaks of "incorporeal senses" perceiving intelligible realities, where knower and known are one. Such knowledge is not passive reception but active identification.

The term "creation" must be clarified: metaphysical realization does not produce something new but awakens latent creative forces within the self. This is not evolution but reintegration—a return to an original, divine state.

Dominion over metaphysical realities is possible but not inherent to all experiences. Some traditions (Hermeticism, Kabbalah) emphasize gnosis over power, seeking union with the ineffable rather than control over forces.

Ultimately, metaphysical reality transcends rigid categories, revealing a multiplicity of states where consciousness, liberated from bodily constraints, perceives existence in its true, unbounded nature.

The Dragon’s Code

Title: The Initiatic Attitude – Beyond Passive Reception
Tags:

1. Active Engagement – Initiatic teaching demands active participation, not passive consumption. It transforms essence when received with the right spiritual attitude.
2. Occult Bond – Spiritual achievements of one individual resonate occultly with others, creating an invisible chain of transmission beyond mere intellectual exchange.
3. Beyond Intellectualism – Esoteric knowledge must not be grasped only with the mind; it must generate living images and be felt in the heart.
4. Purified Feeling – A detached yet intense emotional state must be cultivated—free from personal reactions, centered in calm inner warmth.
5. Will as Tension – The will must be exercised independently of external goals, like a coiled force before action, energizing the subtle body.
6. Triple Integration – True reception unifies thinking, feeling, and willing simultaneously, awakening dormant centers of being.
7. Inversion of Process – Unlike profane learning, esotericism begins with inner experience, from which doctrine later crystallizes—not the reverse.
8. No Blind Faith – Esotericism rejects dogma; it requires direct experience, free from preconceptions, validated only through inner action.
9. Beyond Rigid Formulas – The spirit must flow beyond logical encapsulation, allowing words to evoke hidden resonances within the soul.
10. New Existential Basis – Mastery of this discipline restructures life, thought, and perception, aligning them with higher, transcendent principles.
"The doctrine is not an external teaching—it is the ordering of what has been realized within."

The Attitude Toward Initiatic Teaching

These reflections are directed at those who have not only studied my previous explanations but have also felt and willed when encountering transmitted teachings.

In esoteric knowledge, passive reception is insufficient. Teachings are not given merely for intellectual comprehension but to spur inner transformation. When received with the correct spiritual disposition, they alter one’s very being. Overcoming an obstacle in this domain does not benefit only the individual; an occult bond exists among men, allowing others to partake in one’s spiritual realizations—even if the realized remains distant and silent. However, when the path is articulated in thought, this natural participation is illuminated by conscious awareness and free individuality. Thus, one must learn to receive teachings properly.

The mind alone must not grasp at what is communicated (this is the first barrier that stifles esoteric transmission). Instead, thoughts must generate living images, which must then be felt. The described state must be inwardly shaped—almost as if "invented"—while maintaining a corresponding emotional disposition.

This is not ordinary feeling but a purified state: an inner calm, a listening with the "ear of the heart," distinct from instinctive emotional reactions. To cultivate this, recall a past emotion, then strip away its external cause and its pleasure-pain duality. What remains is an intense yet collected warmth within the heart. This exercise is crucial and simpler than it appears.

Such refined feeling preserves freedom while shifting experience from the brain to subtler centers. The teaching is internalized, no longer seeming external but arising from within—like a remembrance that illuminates previously obscure inner experiences.

Simultaneously, a willful attitude must be cultivated—not as goal-directed effort but as pure tension, akin to the poised force before breaking an object. Abstract from remembered acts of will their causes and aims, retaining only the pre-action energy. This will manifests as a vital force filling the arms and lower body, activating deeper centers. The experience differs from "remembering"; it is as if an external current merges with one’s own, amplifying it.

Thinking, feeling, and willing must unite, awakening dormant centers. Though distinct, these states must coincide. Many can achieve this through practice, marking the first liberation from physical-world laws and an initial realization of the subtle body’s unity in waking life.

This inner development revolutionizes one’s entire existence. New evidences and reference systems emerge. Life and conduct reorganize on a new foundation, and thought crystallizes into a doctrine grounded not in theory but in direct experience.

Here, the process inverts ordinary life: inner action precedes doctrine. Esotericism demands no blind faith but goodwill and freedom from preconceptions—precisely where the difficulty lies. Debate is futile when foundations differ; only through acceptance, action, and objective observation can true knowledge arise.

Doctrine must not rigidify into formulas. A margin of indeterminacy allows the spirit to flow, activating faculties stifled by mere logic. Words must carry more than their surface meaning; the listener must perceive not just the sense but its hidden resonance. What is neatly encapsulated in logic is dead to the spirit’s life.

Metaphysical part:

The hara, understood beyond its purely physical aspect, is referred to as both the general "center of man" and the "earth-center of man" (the literal subtitle of Dürckheim’s book). It is also called the seat of the One and the "basic center"—designations that are not entirely consistent. For instance, "being centered" and "being centered below" are clearly not synonymous. A more logical placement for the center would be in a median zone of the psychophysical being. This is why, across both Western and Eastern traditions, the heart (in a non-physical sense) has often been regarded as the true center of being—a doctrine prominently featured in the Upanishads and present in Western and Islamic esoteric traditions. Alternatively, the solar plexus (also understood symbolically) has sometimes been considered the "center" of human life. Thus, the doctrine of the hara as the "center" risks replacing one imbalanced displacement (upward, toward the head) with another (downward, into the belly), failing to achieve true centrality or a genuine "middle center." Additionally, the term "basic center" is misleading, as "base" and "center" (or "middle point") carry distinct connotations.

Among the traditional symbols of fire, the ignis centrum terrae—the central fire—holds a universal significance. In man, the heart occupies the center of his being, radiating life through warm blood that permeates the entire organism. The heart is luminous and fiery, embodying both intelligence and spirit, as seen in ancient Egypt, where it was regarded as the seat of spiritual understanding, not mere thought. This truth, later obscured by the false attribution of intelligence to the brain, was preserved in Dante’s intellect of love. Linguistic traces remain in expressions like "to learn by heart," revealing the heart’s higher function. Similarly, the distinction between recordari and meminisse (remembering vs. recalling) points to deeper metaphysical truths now lost to modernity. The science of language, properly understood, could restore these forgotten meanings, unveiling the hidden significance of primordial symbols.

The Secret Attitude That Unlocks REAL Spiritual Power 🔥

Serpentine wisdom eludes the grasp of the profane—fluid, formless, yet unyielding. The initiate moves unseen, his will a silent current beneath the world’s brittle surface.

True initiation demands active engagement, not passive reception—esoteric knowledge must transform essence through will, purified feeling, & unified thinking, aligning with transcendent principles beyond intellect.

"Christians killed millions in Ireland."

Me:
This must be Christian universal love.

The history of Ireland confirms that Christianity—in any form—is antithetical to the organic spirit of a people.

1. Christianity as a Tool of Degeneration: The conflicts in Ireland, though framed as religious, reveal the deeper disorder introduced by Christian universalism—eroding true hierarchical order and replacing it with egalitarian strife.

2. Cromwell’s Puritan Fanaticism: A manifestation of Christianity’s inherently leveling and destructive nature, where zealotry served not faith but the uprooting of tradition.

3. Penal Laws & Spiritual Enslavement: The suppression of Irish Catholics under Protestant rule exemplifies Christianity’s divisive essence—replacing indigenous cohesion with sectarian servitude.

4. The Great Famine & Christian Hypocrisy: While not direct slaughter, the indifference of a supposedly "Christian" empire exposes the hollowness of its so-called charity.

Conclusion:
Christian "love" is a chthonic deception—a lunar cult of weakness, binding the masses to a slave morality. Ireland’s suffering is but one testament to its corrosive influence.

Metaphysical part:

The Olympian Ideal and the Critique of Natural Law

The modern world’s decline stems from the inversion of traditional hierarchies, where the material principle (the masses, democracy) has usurped the formal principle (the State, hierarchy). This breakdown reflects a regression from the Olympian, virile, and spiritual order to a chthonic, maternal, and egalitarian disorder.

Natural law, a cornerstone of modern subversive ideologies, embodies this regression. It is rooted in a utopian view of human nature, proclaiming universal equality and innate rights—principles alien to the traditional worldview. In reality, "natural law" is not an eternal truth but a product of a specific, decadent civilization—one that rejects hierarchy in favor of a materialistic, egalitarian ethos.

Historically, natural law aligns with the "physical-maternal" conception of existence, where all beings are equal before the Great Mother. This stands in stark contrast to the Indo-European and Roman traditions, which upheld the patrician, aristocratic, and sacral order of the State. Roman law, for instance, was not based on abstract egalitarianism but on differentiated rights tied to lineage, caste, and sacred authority.

The resurgence of natural law in late antiquity and its adoption by Christianity marked a victory for the plebeian, anti-hierarchical spirit. This trend persists today in democracy, socialism, and human rights doctrines—all of which reinforce the dominance of mass society over the organic State.

True law, in the traditional sense, is not derived from an illusory "human nature" but from the transcendent authority of the State, which embodies the Olympian principle of order. The modern fetishization of positive law—devoid of spiritual legitimacy—is merely another symptom of decline.

The crisis of our age is, at its core, a metaphysical rebellion: the triumph of matter over form, the maternal over the paternal, quantity over quality. Only a restoration of the traditional State—founded on sacred hierarchy and virile sovereignty—can reverse this descent.

Initiation's nigredo phase: spontaneous faculties fade, only to re-emerge as mastered powers of the Self—true alchemy of the spirit.

Time is an illusion of earthly experience—true freedom lies in transcending desire & becoming the 'Lord of birth.'

Blaming AI for my problems

Me:
Artificial intelligence is merely a tool—it should remain nothing more than that. Attributing to it an independent social role, detached from human thought, is absurd because, first and foremost, AI's technical model is not based on true intelligence, which stems from self-awareness.

1. AI as a Tool vs. an Autonomous Entity
Tool Perspective: Many agree with your view that AI is fundamentally a tool created and controlled by humans. It is designed to assist, augment, or automate tasks, much like other technologies (e.g., calculators, search engines). Its "intelligence" is narrow, task-specific, and devoid of understanding or intent.
Autonomy Debate: Some argue that as AI systems become more advanced (e.g., generative models, autonomous agents), they may exhibit behaviors that appear independent or creative, blurring the line between tool and agent. However, this "autonomy" is still a product of human design and training data, not self-directed will.

2. True Intelligence and Self-Awareness
AI lacks self-awareness, a hallmark of human (or biological) intelligence. AI operates through mathematical models (e.g., neural networks) that process patterns but have no subjective experience, consciousness, or understanding of their own existence.
Limitations of AI: Without self-awareness, AI cannot "think" or "reason" in the human sense. It simulates intelligence through statistical correlations, which is why it can fail unpredictably or produce nonsensical outputs ("hallucinations").

3. Social Role of AI
Attributing Agency: Treating AI as an independent social actor (e.g., granting it rights, blaming it for decisions) is indeed problematic because it obscures human responsibility. For example, if an AI system biases hiring decisions, the fault lies with its designers or deployers, not the tool itself.
Cultural Narratives: Pop culture often anthropomorphizes AI (e.g., robots with personalities), which can lead to misplaced expectations or fears. Technically, AI has no desires, goals, or moral alignment unless explicitly programmed.

The Deeper Failure

For hundreds of years, the West has plunged deeper into spiritual desolation, blaming external forces for its own collapse. This is fundamentally anti-pagan—a denial of the primordial, heroic ethos that once demanded self-mastery and alignment with transcendent order. AI is merely the latest distraction in this long decline. But you remain the root cause of your own misery. You can keep blaming the Jews, the Christians, some Levantine sect, communism, capitalism, and now A.I.—but in the end, all these inorganic structures will just be footnotes in history, a history you’ll never be part of because you were too afraid to become a god.

Keep blaming others. The Hermetic law of balance will only grant us more of the power you so willingly surrendered.

Title: The Modern Scapegoat: AI as a Symptom of Spiritual Decline
Tags:

1. AI as a Distraction – The fixation on AI as a cause of societal decay is merely another evasion of responsibility, a refusal to confront the true collapse of higher principles.
2. Tool, Not Agent – AI lacks will, consciousness, or purpose; it is an empty mechanism, reflecting only the degradation of those who misuse it.
3. The Heroic Ethos Denied – Traditional man recognized fate as a test of strength, not an external enemy. Blaming AI is cowardice, a rejection of the warrior’s stance.
4. The West’s Descent – For centuries, the West has externalized its failures—first onto religions, then ideologies, now machines. This is the mark of a dying civilization.
5. Anti-Pagan Reflex – True pagan spirit demanded self-overcoming, not victimhood. Modern man clings to excuses because he fears the burden of sovereignty.
6. Inorganic Obsessions – AI, like all modern idols, is a hollow substitute for the sacred. It is worshipped because nothing else remains.
7. The Hermetic Law – Those who surrender their power to illusions (whether political or technological) will be stripped of it entirely. The strong inherit what the weak discard.
8. No Redemption in Machines – Salvation lies in hierarchy, discipline, and the sacred—not in prostration before lifeless systems.
9. The Final Test – The age of AI is the ultimate revealer of men: those who dominate it, and those who are enslaved by it.
10. Become Gods or Perish – The choice is eternal. Blame is for the herd.

AI is just another mask of modernity’s decay—blaming it is cowardice. True men forge destiny, not whine about tools.
