"The Catholic Church, Nick Fuentes, and Christian Nationalism"

I hope the Pope hears the words “well done, good and faithful servant” in heaven

Me:
typical slave mentality

"The Church exists to get souls to heaven"

Me:
"Free heaven" doesn't exist. Slave morality clings to 'free heaven'—true transcendence demands aristocratic self-overcoming, the vertical ascent of the 'I' beyond the plebeian cycle of becoming.

Metaphysical part:

Buddhism’s ultimate ideal marks a decisive break from conventional religious conceptions—a fact Western minds often struggle to grasp. Whereas Western traditions typically envision paradise as a celestial survival of the individual, and only rare mystics speak of union with Being, Buddhism transcends even these notions. Its horizon aligns with traditional Hindu metaphysics, where divine worlds remain within samsara, and true immortality lies not in perpetuating individuality but in realizing the Unconditioned.

The Buddha explicitly rejects all identifications—with the body, the elements, the ego, the cosmos, divine hierarchies, and even the God of Being (Brahma). Notably, he condemns mystical union (unio mystica) as a limitation, a near-diabolical temptation obstructing the supreme Liberation.

How, then, can Buddhism be reduced to a sentimental, humanitarian morality—a shallow philosophy of suffering? Its true essence is metaphysical, accessible only to a select few. The canonical texts declare: "All the waters of the ocean have but one flavor, that of salt; so the sense of the whole of the Law is only one, that of liberation."

Nirvana—or more accurately, the void (sunna)—defies definition, belonging to a realm beyond Being and Non-Being. Yet the marks of the Awakened One are unmistakable: he is the "lord of men and gods," unconquered, a lion freed from fear and anguish. He sees past and future, heaven and hell, the temporal and the eternal. He is the "daring One," free from passion, pride, and illusion—beyond good and evil, untouched by thirst or stain.

This is no path for the many. It is a razor’s edge, demanding exceptional vocation and strength. The doctrine itself warns against misinterpretation: like grasping a serpent wrongly, error brings destruction.

The degenerate forms of Buddhism—whether as a democratized morality or exoteric religion—are mere corruptions. The true doctrine stands as a testament to what a higher humanity can achieve.

Beyond Theism and Atheism

The crisis of the modern world extends beyond social decay—it is a spiritual crisis marked by the dissolution of traditional values. The West’s religious framework, particularly Christianity, has been reduced to a moralistic and exoteric shell, devoid of true metaphysical depth. Unlike other traditional forms, Christianity lacks an esoteric core, leaving it vulnerable to the assaults of nihilism and free thought.

The "death of God" proclaimed by Nietzsche refers only to the moral God—the anthropomorphic deity serving as a crutch for human weakness. This demise clears the way for a higher conception of the divine: an impersonal, transcendent principle beyond good and evil, as found in the nondual doctrines of Hinduism (Shiva’s dance, the identity of samsara and nirvana), Taoism, and Neoplatonism. The West, however, has largely lost these metaphysical horizons, reducing the sacred to sentimental devotion and moral dogma.

Even within Christianity, marginal currents—such as Joachim de Flore’s "Age of the Spirit" and the "Brethren of the Free Spirit"—hinted at a higher freedom beyond moral dualism. These echoes suggest that the true metaphysical core remains intact for those capable of perceiving it.

The modern nihilistic assault on the "other world" targets only its exoteric, moralistic distortion. The genuine transcendent dimension—where reality acquires absolute significance—persists untouched. For the higher human type, this realization means moving beyond both theism and atheism. God ceases to be an external problem; instead, transcendence is found within, as an immutable center amid chaos.

The existential challenge of modernity demands not passive suffering but active confrontation with adversity. As Seneca noted, the superior man proves himself in struggle. This strength derives not from mere individualism but from anchoring oneself in the transcendent principle—turning dissolution into an opportunity for awakening.

In this light, even the collapse of meaning can serve as a catalyst. Moments of disintegration may reveal, paradoxically, a "live center" beyond the chaos—an intimation of the eternal justification of all things. For those attuned to it, the crisis of modernity becomes the trial through which a higher order is affirmed.

Title: Inter-Racial Selection in the Mediterranean World
Tags: #RacialTheory #AryoRoman #FascistRace #SpiritualRacism #Evola

1. Nordico-Aryan Element as Central Reference: The Nordico-Aryan element is crucial for the purification and strengthening of the Italian people. It serves as a germinal cell for the emergence of a new type, the "Fascist man" and "Fascist race," through active racism.
2. Race of the Soul and Spirit: The primary focus of racial purification lies in the soul and spirit, not just the body. Awakening an instinct to avoid undesirable unions is key, as this instinct formation belongs to active second- and third-degree racism.
3. Italian Racial Components: The Italian race comprises several elements, including the Nordic, Phalian, Dinaric, African-Mediterranean, and Pelasgic races. The most valuable element is the Nordico-Aryan, termed "Aryo-Roman."
4. Undesirable Racial Mixing: The mixing of the Aryo-Roman element with the African-Mediterranean and Pelasgic elements should be avoided. Even mixing with the "westish" (Western) race is undesirable due to its negative influence on the soul.
5. Favorable Racial Mixing: Mixing the Aryo-Roman race with the Aryo-Germanic, Nordic, Dinaric, and Phalian races is beneficial. However, this pattern is only valid when a corresponding racial sensitivity is created.
6. Bourgeois Race as Anti-Race: The bourgeois race, characterized by mediocrity, conformism, and opportunism, is the true danger to the Italian people. It represents an anti-race that must be despised and isolated from.
7. Male Dominance in Racial Purity: Favourable crossbreeds are those where the male is of the Aryo-Roman race. When the female is of this race, a drop in the racial level typically occurs.
8. Instinct Over Rational Administration: Racial selection should not be a rational, controlled process but should arise from refined instincts of love and desire, guided by ethical sensibility and racial consciousness.
9. Rectification of the Soul: The rectification of race must address the soul, particularly in a bourgeois civilization that prioritizes superficial feelings and love, paralysing higher motives.
10. Bourgeois Civilization's Negative Impact: Bourgeois and materialistic civilization has created a society of conformity, making it difficult to discern the true racial nature of individuals, especially women, hindering proper racial unions.

INTER-RACIAL SELECTION IN THE MEDITERRANEAN WORLD

It is essential to avoid replacing one unilateral perspective with another. Recognizing the significant role of the Nordic-Aryan element in the origins of Italian and Roman greatness, as well as its presence in the current Italian stock as a "race of the body," does not negate the need for selection, purification, and intensification. The Nordic-Aryan element should serve as a central reference point for the purification and strengthening of the modern Italian people, acting as a germinal cell from which a new type must emerge—a type that could rightly be termed the "Fascist man" or "Fascist race." This is the task of active racism, which requires a clear identification of the various components of the "Italian race" and their rectification where they deviate from the ideal, both ancient and modern, tied to the luminous heritage of primordial solar traditions.

This process primarily concerns the race of the soul and spirit. Surgical interventions to prevent crossbreeding among heterogeneous types within the Italian breed would be ineffective without the corresponding inner transformation. The key is to awaken an instinct that spontaneously rejects undesirable unions—a task that falls under active second- and third-degree racism, which operates on the soul and spirit rather than the body.

From an external perspective, the primary racial components of the "Germanic race" include the Nordic, Phalian, Dinaric, Eastern (ostisch), Western (westisch), and East Baltic races. With the exception of the East Baltic and Eastern races, the others are also present in the "Italian breed," alongside two major components: the "African-Mediterranean race" and the "Pelasgic race." The African-Mediterranean race results from a mixture of Eastern and African Mediterranean elements with the Aryo-Mediterranean race, with the former predominating—a factor that contributed to the decline of the Roman Empire and was further reinforced during the Saracen period. The Pelasgic race, on the other hand, stems from the ethnic involution of ancient Aryo-Western or Atlantic-Western stocks in the Central Mediterranean.

The most valuable element in the Italian racial composition remains the Nordic-Aryan, which we propose to term "Aryo-Roman." The least favorable mixtures to be avoided are those between the Aryo-Roman element and the African-Mediterranean element (particularly prevalent in southern Italy) or the Pelasgic element. Even mixing with the Western (westisch) racial component, present in Italy, is undesirable, primarily for spiritual rather than anthropological reasons. The Western racial type, dominant in French civilization since the Provençal period and present in England and western Germany, has a less negative influence in those regions due to the tempering effect of the Nordic race. In Italy, however, the introduction of Western blood could harm the Aryo-Roman core until a stronger racial and ethical consciousness is established. Favorable mixtures include those between the Aryo-Roman race and the Aryo-Germanic, Nordic, Dinaric, and Phalian races. These patterns, however, will only hold value once a corresponding sensitivity is cultivated.

In Germany, the predominance of the Eastern (estish) racial component is often linked to the bourgeois type—stereotypically fat, beer-drinking, round-headed, and conformist. While the Western component is weaker in Italy, the country suffers from a hypertrophied bourgeois race of body and soul, which Fascism identifies as a significant threat. This "anti-race" embodies mediocrity, opportunism, conformism, and a fear of responsibility. Those who identify with the Aryo-Roman ethos must reject this bourgeois race entirely, isolating themselves from its influence both physically and spiritually. Racial purity, in this context, demands absolute intransigence and a willingness to take social and political risks to oppose this "bourgeois race" wherever it appears.

Regarding the protection of the superior Aryo-Roman core and favorable crossbreeding, it is crucial to remember that the male type carries the racial essence. Favorable crossbreeding occurs when the man is of Aryo-Roman race; when the woman is of this race, a decline in type is likely.

It is important to clarify that this framework is not a call for a technocratic administration of unions or the suppression of spontaneity in love and desire. Rather, the goal is to cultivate refined instincts among the highest racial representatives of a people, ensuring that love and desire are guided by ethical sensibility and a higher sense of "race." For example, women who are physically attractive but morally flawed—selfish, vain, or bourgeois—should be seen as belonging to "another race," unsuitable for long-term unions or offspring. Physical traits, too, should alert a refined male instinct to racial incompatibility.

The rectification of race from the perspective of the soul is further complicated by bourgeois and materialistic civilization, which has elevated "feeling" and "love" to a paralyzing primacy, stifling higher motives. Additionally, bourgeois conformity in Mediterranean societies makes it difficult to discern the true racial and spiritual nature of a woman, a prerequisite for meaningful unions.

Metaphysical part:

Hindu Tantric iconography accentuates the authentic traits of the two principles. First, consider the image of Shakti dancing over Shiva's motionless body. Here, Shiva's stillness symbolizes the unchanging nature of the male principle. In Hindu religious art, his towering stature signifies his superior ontological status compared to Shakti, who is in motion. Second, the symbolism of Shakti and Shiva's union in viparita maithuna—where the male remains still while the female actively moves—further illustrates this dynamic. Western "activist" ideals have inverted the traditional notion that the true male principle is defined by "being." This principle does not act, as it is sovereign and generates action without direct involvement. Thus, action, dynamism, and development, being non-self-sufficient, fall under the feminine element, nature, or prakriti, rather than under spirit, atman, or purusha. This represents active immobility versus passive activity, a truth forgotten by the activist West, which has lost sight of true virility.

In individual initiatory practices, a young woman must be consecrated, initiated, and instructed in mudras, the ritualistic and magical positions. These women, referred to as mudra, embody not only the physical positions during union but also the evocation of an inner power, aligning them with divine attributes or magical forms of divinity.

In the Samkhya tradition, the male principle, Shiva, is attributed a non-acting, originating role. He awakens Shakti and determines motion, but it is Shakti who truly acts, moves, and generates. This is symbolized in the sexual union where Shakti, made of flames, actively moves while embracing the divine male, made of light and bearing the scepter, who remains still. This viparita-maithuna, or inverted coitus, is prevalent in the sacred iconography of India and Tibet, particularly in yab-yum chudpa statuettes. In divine personifications, Shakti corresponds to Kali, the "black goddess," often depicted as flames or surrounded by a fiery halo. Kali embodies the pre-form darkness and fire, representing an energy that transcends finite forms and limits, often manifesting as a destructive force.

https://www.slideserve.com/periodic_reset/law-and-race-the-anti-collectivist-concept-of-national-racial-community

Title: Law and Race – The Anti-Collectivist Concept of National-Racial Community
Tags: #Traditionalism #Race #Hierarchy #Anti-Collectivism #SpiritualRace #Volksgemeinschaft

1. Race Beyond Collectivism: The racial idea must reject collectivist interpretations, as they undermine the hierarchical and spiritual essence of race. Race is not synonymous with the egalitarian "people" or "nation" but signifies a higher, differentiated order.
2. Race as a Hierarchical Principle: True racial doctrine opposes the democratization of race, which erodes the privilege of blood and nobility. Race in its highest sense is a marker of spiritual and aristocratic superiority, not a common denominator for mass equality.
3. Personality Over Individualism: The concept of "personality" transcends liberal individualism. A "person" is integrated into a higher order of values, rooted in spiritual tradition and the race of the soul, not merely biological or naturalistic data.
4. Traditional Roman Law: Authentic Roman law embodies the dignity of the person, distinct from later decadent or liberalized forms. The principle of suum cuique (to each his own) reflects a hierarchical, anti-egalitarian legal order.
5. Race of the Soul and Spirit: The true racial community is defined by the race of the soul and spirit, not mere naturalistic belonging. It requires fidelity to higher ethical principles and a warrior-ascetic lifestyle, akin to ancient Orders.
6. Anti-Egalitarian Legal Differentiation: A hierarchical legal system must differentiate rights and privileges based on spiritual and racial qualities, rejecting the "immortal rights of man" as a democratic fallacy.
7. Männerbund Principle: The principle of virile political communities (Männerbund) represents a higher form of natural community, emphasizing discipline, fidelity, and heroic sacrifice over bourgeois individualism.
8. Fascist and National-Socialist Models: The Fascist Party and SS Corps exemplify attempts to create a new elite Order, embodying the race of the soul and spirit, and guarding the state against collectivist and egalitarian tendencies.
9. Combat as Differentiation: True racial differentiation emerges through combat, particularly the "greater war" against internal chaos and anti-race. This struggle refines and elevates the race of the soul and spirit.
10. Minority as Racial Ideal: The full realization of race is embodied only in a minority, as the masses cannot achieve the purity and spiritual adequacy required. The elite must lead, embodying the highest racial and spiritual ideals.

LAW AND RACE – THE ANTI-COLLECTIVIST CONCEPT OF NATIONAL-RACIAL COMMUNITY

The doctrine of race holds significant implications for the realm of law, but it is crucial to avoid misinterpretations. Many racist ideologies fail to transcend the dichotomy between individualism and collectivism, overlooking the higher concept of personality. From our perspective, any collectivist interpretation of race must be firmly rejected. The conflation of "race" with "nation" or "people," while useful as a "myth," becomes dangerous when it promotes equality among all members, erases privileges, and reduces everything to a common denominator. Such an approach risks democratizing the concept of race, undermining the hierarchical principles that once defined Europe.

Historically, race in its higher sense was associated with nobility, a concept that predated modern biology and racial theories. When race is equated with the "people," this last bastion of hierarchy is destroyed, and the concept of blood or race is democratized. Some misguided attempts to reform law in a racist spirit, inspired by egalitarian and collectivist views, fail to recognize the true essence of race. These efforts often misinterpret ancient Aryan societies, ignoring their caste distinctions and hierarchical structures.

From a Roman legal perspective, a racial conception of law that lacks the notion of the "person" appears pre-legal. The "person" in Roman law is not the liberal individual but an individual integrated into a higher order of values, rooted in spiritual tradition and the race of the soul and spirit. This dignity, encapsulated in the principle of suum cuique ("to each his own"), is betrayed when individuals are reduced to mere members of a national-racial group, a state akin to pre-personality.

The traditional doctrine of race must uphold the principle of human inequality, ensuring it does not devolve into its opposite. As Paul De Lagarde suggested, being merely "human" is inferior to belonging to a nation or race, which in turn is inferior to being a "person." The progression from humanity to nationality, race, and finally personality represents increasing degrees of value, dignity, and responsibility. The "person" is the foundation of a new, hierarchical, and organic order that transcends naturalistic and collectivist notions.

This vision aligns with the emergence of virile political communities, such as the Männerbundprinzip, which represent a higher form of natural community. The Fascist conception of the Party reflects similar values, elevating its members beyond mere nationality to a higher ethical and political responsibility. Where the race of the soul and spirit manifests, an even higher form of community emerges, reminiscent of the ancient Aryan elite.

In this context, the reappearance of a differentiated and hierarchical legal system, akin to ancient Aryan and Roman law, becomes conceivable. This system would reject the egalitarian "rights of man" in favor of an organic and differentiated conception of law. Examples of this tendency can be seen in the racial legislation of Italy and Germany, where distinctions between citizens, members, and guests reflect a hierarchical approach. The creation of political-military orders, such as the SS, and institutions like the Ordensburgen further exemplify this trend.

Ultimately, the concept of race must go beyond defensive measures against racial mixing or hereditary defects. It must recognize that the ideal of race is fully realized only in a minority, embodying the perfect unity of body, soul, and spirit. Combat, especially the inner struggle against chaos and anti-race, differentiates and creates hierarchy, affirming the true essence of race in its highest form.

Metaphysical part:

The military defeats suffered by the Crusaders, after initial surprise and confusion, served to purify the Crusades of any materialistic remnants, shifting focus to the inner rather than the outer dimension, to the spiritual rather than the temporal. By likening the unfortunate outcome of a Crusade to an unnoticed virtue—rewarded only in the afterlife—people learned to see beyond mere victory or defeat, placing their values in the ritual and sacrificial aspect of action as an end in itself. This action was performed independently of visible earthly results, as an offering aimed at deriving the life-giving "absolute glory" from the sacrifice of the human element.

Thus, in the Crusades, we see the recurrence of themes such as: "Paradise lies under the shade of the swords," and "The blood of heroes is closer to God than the ink of philosophers and the prayers of the faithful." The concept of immortality as the "island of heroes" or "court of heroes" (akin to Valhalla) also emerges. This reflects the same spirit that animated warriors in Zoroastrian dualism, where followers of Mithras equated their cult with military service. Initiates swore an oath (sacramentum) similar to that of soldiers, joining the "sacred militia of the invincible god of light."

Furthermore, the Crusades achieved a realization of universality and supernationalism through asceticism. Leaders and nobles from diverse lands united in a sacred enterprise, transcending their individual interests and political divisions to forge a European solidarity rooted in the ecumenical ideal of the Holy Roman Empire. The strength of the Crusades lay in chivalry, a supernational institution whose members, bound by unconditional loyalty, fought for principles beyond national borders. Pope Urban II described chivalry as a community that "appears wherever conflict arises, spreading the terror of their weapons in defense of honor and justice," expecting it to answer the call to holy war. Here, the inner and outer dimensions converged; the holy war offered individuals the experience of meta-individual action, while the unity of warriors for a higher purpose expressed the overcoming of particularities, an ideal already embodied by the Holy Roman Empire.

The universality linked to asceticism and pure spiritual authority forms the foundation of an invisible traditional unity, transcending political divisions within a civilization informed by the cosmic and eternal. When this universality combines with "universality as action," it culminates in the supreme ideal of the empire—a unity both visible and invisible, material and spiritual. Heroic asceticism and the untameable warrior vocation, guided by a supernatural direction, are essential for reflecting this inner unity in the outer unity of a social body organized and unified by a conquering stock.

In contrast, modern civilization has degraded the concept of war. The warrior, once fighting for honor and the right of his lord, has been reduced to the mere "soldier," stripped of transcendent or religious elements. Fighting on "the path to God" is dismissed as medieval fanaticism, while "patriotic" and "nationalistic" ideals are glorified, only to be unmasked as tools of irrational, materialistic, and destructive forces. The rallying cry of "country" often concealed plans of annexation, oppression, and monopolistic interests. Heroism became a hollow term, as soldiers faced war not as a path to transfiguration but as a regression to savage instincts and reflexes, far removed from the heroic ideal.

Nationalism offered a surrogate for the traditional ideals of spiritual and heroic universality: imperialism. While seizing another's goods is condemned in society, such actions between nations were legitimized and even consecrated, forming the basis of the "imperialistic" ideal. Nations justified expansion through fabricated needs, such as demographic growth or overproduction, leading to military expeditions that pale in comparison to the barbaric invasions of the past. These modern conflicts, cloaked in rhetoric of "humanity," "democracy," and "self-determination," reveal a cynical will to power driven by international capitalist and collectivist forces. War has become mechanized and dehumanized, pitting machines against men, with rational systems of mass extermination leaving no hope or escape. In contrast to the "medieval superstition" of holy war, modern civilization glorifies the mass sacrifice of millions, stripped of their vocations and reduced to "cannon fodder," as a sign of "progress."

Title: Race and Death: The Supra-Terrestrial Destiny of Personality
Tags: #Traditionalism #Race #AryanIdeals #SpiritualHeredity #TelluricRace #Dharma #Devayana #Pitryana #DoubleHeredity #Supernatural

1. Race Beyond Biology: Race is not merely a biological or earthly entity but transcends into the spiritual and supernatural realms. It is a mistake to limit race to a purely materialistic or historical framework, as this denies the higher, supra-terrestrial destiny of the individual.
2. Telluric vs. Aryan Ideals: The "telluric" conception of race, which confines it to earthly survival and bloodline continuity, is a limited and inferior perspective. It aligns with the "way of the South" (pitryana), opposed to the Aryan "divine way of the North" (devayana), which seeks supernatural perfection.
3. Double Heredity: Personality is shaped by both horizontal (biological) and vertical (spiritual) heredity. True race is not reducible to mere biological inheritance but is a manifestation of a higher, transcendent principle.
4. Personality and Race: While race provides the material for personality's expression, personality itself is not bound by race. It can transcend racial limitations, achieving a supernatural state of perfection beyond earthly constraints.
5. Aryan Law and Duty: Ancient Aryan traditions emphasize the fulfillment of earthly duties (dharma), including procreation and active life, as a prerequisite for spiritual liberation. The firstborn, as the "son of duty," symbolizes this obligation to race and lineage.
6. Vertical Procreation: True duty extends beyond horizontal procreation (earthly descendants) to vertical procreation (spiritual ascent). This upward direction aligns with the Aryan ideal of supernatural fulfillment.
7. Active and Contemplative Life: Aryan law prescribes a balance between active life (fulfilling earthly duties) and contemplative life (asceticism and spiritual pursuit). This dual path ensures both racial continuity and spiritual transcendence.
8. Death as Accomplishment: For those who achieve the summit of personality, death becomes a telos—a fulfillment and a gateway to a new, supernatural birth. This contrasts with the dissolution of mediocre beings into the collective vitality of race.
9. Mediocrity and Dissolution: Those who fail to fulfill their earthly and spiritual duties are destined to dissolve into the collective, terrestrial substance of race, surviving only in a relative sense through their descendants.
10. Supreme Aryan Ideal: The highest Aryan teaching affirms the supernatural end of personality as the ultimate driving force. This ideal elevates race to its highest potential, beyond which lies spiritual liberation and transcendence.

RACE AND DEATH.

We now pause to clarify, based on the preceding explanations, the limits of personality as it pertains to race. From a traditional perspective, it is unacceptable to view race as merely a biological, historical, or earthly entity, and to claim that it is the ultimate end of all beings belonging to it—that there is nothing superior to race, that race is the source of all value, and that the idea of a supra-terrestrial destiny for the individual is illusory and harmful: "to remain true to the earth and the race." This conception, which we have critiqued before, is particularly suited to a telluric race, as only such a race could consider such limited horizons as absolute. This telluric vision also aligns with the "neo-pagan" racist belief that the only conceivable immortality is survival through blood and earthly descent.

While such positions today often carry practical and political weight, aiming to consolidate racial unity and focus individual spiritual energies on temporal and historical duties, it is important to note that ancient Aryan civilizations achieved greatness without relying on these myths. Instead, they recognized higher truths. The telluric conception of race aligns with the pitryana, the "way of the South," which stands in opposition to the devayana, the "divine way of the North," which embodies the highest Aryan ideal.

This ideal is also connected to the theory of "double heredity." Personality is not confined to historical-biological or horizontal heredity; it is a principle that, while manifesting through race, transcends it. Recognizing race does not diminish personality; rather, race provides the living, articulated matter for personality's specific expression and action. This relationship is dynamic, as individuals also influence race and heredity, shaping the substance in which they manifest. This interplay leads to inter-racial differentiation and varying degrees of purity and completion among types, a topic we will revisit in the context of social influences.

When a supreme equilibrium is achieved—balancing the tripartite components of true race—personality reaches a summit on the horizontal, earthly plane. Beyond this, personality is "free" and can pursue supernatural perfection. This aligns with the ancient Aryan conception, also reflected in medieval Western ideas, where the Dharma prescribes adherence to earthly laws—race, caste, etc.—until complete adequacy is achieved. This includes ensuring offspring, as life received at birth must be passed on before death. After fulfilling these duties, one may retire to an ascetic-contemplative life. The Iranian-Aryan adage emphasizes that true duty involves not only horizontal procreation but also vertical ascent.

In Western religion, these ideas have been muddled, with a sharp divide between active and contemplative life, often neglecting traditional solutions where the supra-mundane law complements the mundane. More harmful, however, are the telluric racial ideas, which, if taken seriously, would distort the traditional Aryan teachings. According to these teachings, the supernatural end and dignity of personality serve as the driving force for creative expression within the framework of race, elevating race to a limit beyond which personality transcends, making death an accomplishment (telos) and a new birth—the third birth of Indo-Aryan doctrine.

Only those who fail to fulfill their earthly duties—mediocre beings—may be thought to have no afterlife, dissolving back into the collective vitality of race and surviving only in a relative sense through blood and heredity, passing on their unfulfilled tasks to others.

Metaphysical part:

In the context of a living tradition, castes represented the natural "place" where analogous wills and vocations converged on the earthly plane. Hereditary transmission, regular and closed, forged homogeneous groups sharing organic, vitalistic, and even psychic proclivities, enabling individuals to develop their prenatal dispositions within human existence. The caste did not "give" the individual their nature; rather, it provided the opportunity to recognize or remember their inherent nature and prenatal will, while also offering an occult heritage tied to blood, allowing for harmonious realization. The caste's characteristics, functions, and duties served as guidelines for the regular development of one's potential within an organic social system. In higher castes, initiation awakened supernatural influences, completing this process. The ius of the individual—those inherent rights and prerogatives tied to traditional articulations—ensured harmony between transcendental will and human heredity, allowing each person to find a social condition aligned with their nature and deepest attitudes, protected from confusion and prevarication.

When personality is not fixated on the ephemeral principle of human individuality, which leaves only a "shadow" at death, this becomes natural and evident. Achievements in life hold no higher meaning if they fail to actualize the prenatal will tied to one's birth—a will that cannot be easily altered by temporary, arbitrary decisions. Understanding this reveals the necessity of castes. Modern man, recognizing only the empirical self that begins at birth and ends at death, loses contact with the forces behind his birth and the nonhuman element within him, which exists beyond birth and death. This element, the "place" for what may be realized beyond death, provides an incomparable sense of security. Once this rhythm is broken, disorderly, inorganic activities dominate, driven by temporal motivations, passions, and vanity. "Culture" ceases to be a means of actualizing one's being through commitment and faithfulness, becoming instead a locus for "self-actualization" rooted in the shifting sands of the empirical self. Equality and the right to be anything one chooses are championed, with no acknowledgment of deeper differences tied to nature and inner dignity. Physical heredity, now incomprehensible, is endured or enjoyed as fate's caprice, while personality, blood traits, and social vocation grow discordant, leading to inner and outer conflicts. Legal and ethical perspectives promote leveling, equal rights, and a uniform social morality, disregarding individual natures and dignities. The "overcoming" of castes and traditional orders signifies this destruction. Modern man enjoys boundless "freedom," but his illusions and restlessness know no limits.

The freedom of traditional man was different. It lay not in discarding but in rejoining the deeper vein of his will, tied to the mystery of his existential "form." Birth and the physical element reflect the resultant of forces at work in one's birth—the direction of the stronger force. Minor inclinations, swept away, may correspond to talents and tendencies distinct from one's organic preformation and caste duties. Such contradictions were exceptions in a caste-regulated society but become predominant in societies without castes, where no law gathers or shapes talents for specific functions. This leads to existential and psychic chaos, condemning most to disharmony and social tension. Traditional man, though possessing a margin of indetermination, used it to emphasize self-knowledge and self-realization, eliminating this margin through inner transformation. Discovering and willing the "dominating" trait of one's form and caste, transforming it into an ethical imperative, and actualizing it ritually through faithfulness, freed one from earthly ties—instincts, hedonism, and material concerns. This view underpins the caste system's stability and closeness.

Title: Christianity, Race, and the Spirit of Origins: A Traditionalist Critique of Neo-Pagan Equivocations
Tags: #Evola #Traditionalism #Race #Spirituality #Paganism #Christianity #Aryan #Nordic #Hierarchy #CyclicalLaws

1. Synthesis of Powers in Ancient States: Ancient states were characterized by the synthesis of temporal and spiritual powers, which spiritualized politics. Neo-paganism, in contrast, risks politicizing spirituality, reversing the true hierarchical order.
2. Nation-Race and Aryan Hierarchy: The concept of the nation-race, when misunderstood, leads to a loss of Aryan hierarchical values. It conflates distinct entities (Judaism, Romanity, Church, etc.) into a homogenized "darkness," obscuring true spiritual distinctions.
3. Super-Race and Empire: The traditional conception of the Reich transcends both destructive internationalism and narrow nationalism. It envisions a "super-race" capable of uniting ethnically distinct groups under a higher spiritual hierarchy.
4. Misinterpretations of Nordic Traditions: The "tragic heroism" and "love of destiny" attributed to Nordic spirituality by some neo-pagan circles are distortions. They reflect the twilight phase of Hyperborean races, not the original solar and heroic essence of Aryan spirituality.
5. Wagner and Romanticism: Wagner’s art and romanticism represent a counterfeit of true Nordic traditions, emphasizing sentimentality and confusion over higher spiritual faculties. This reflects the "darkening of the divine" (ragna-rokkr) rather than the original solar content.
6. Humanism and Renaissance Paganism: The "paganism" of Humanism and the Renaissance is a desecrated form, focusing on immanentism and the "affirmation of life." It represents a fall from transcendent spirituality, leading to individualism and cultural decay.
7. Catholic Dogmatism as a Barrier: Catholic dogmatism, despite its flaws, serves as a barrier against the mysticism of immanence and prevaricating invasions from below. It maintains a rigid limit for transcendent knowledge, which is essential for spiritual elevation.
8. Critique of Immanentism: Immanentism, pantheism, and the cult of "nature" and "life" are incompatible with true Aryan spirituality. They represent a descent into anti-tradition, contrary to the spirit of origins and the doctrine of race.
9. Spiritual Revolution and Fascism: Fascism, as a spiritually revolutionary idea, must avoid the errors of neo-pagan equivocations. It should strive for a worldview rooted in the primordial traditions, free from dilettantism and polemical antipathies.
10. Return to Primordial Traditions: The true aspiration of the doctrine of race is a return to the world of origins, characterized by a rigorous and objective understanding of the spirit of primordial traditions. This requires transcending both neo-pagan and Christian distortions to reclaim the Aryan hierarchical vision.

CHRISTIANITY, RACE, SPIRIT OF ORIGINS.

Other neo-Pagan deviations concern the political realm. Here, Paganism often equates to the exclusive dominance of temporal power, which stands in stark contrast to the ancient states where the synthesis of spiritual and temporal authority was not statolatry but a means to spiritualize politics. Neo-paganism, however, risks politicizing spirituality and religion itself, akin to Gallicanism, thereby reversing the fundamental aim of modern renovating movements that seek to ground themselves in a spiritual worldview.

Consider certain circles, like that of Ludendorff—or more accurately, Mrs. Ludendorff, who is truly responsible for such aberrations—which conflate Judaism, Romanity, the Church, Masonry, and Communism, simply because their premises differ from those of the nation-race. This approach threatens to plunge into a darkness where all distinctions are lost, erasing the Aryan hierarchy of values. It fails to transcend the paralyzing antithesis between destructive internationalism and narrow nationalism. The traditional concept of the empire, or Reich, transcends both, embodying the idea of a "super-race" capable of creating a higher hierarchical unity. Within this framework, ethnically and nationally defined units retain their specific traits and relative autonomy while participating in a higher spiritual order. Some German circles, however, have gone so far as to condemn their own traditions, labeling figures like Charlemagne, the Hohenstaufens, and the Habsburgs as traitors to the nation-race due to their "Romanity." Fortunately, practical necessity and Germany's evolving European role have curbed such extremes.

As for the "tragic heroism" and "love of destiny" that some neo-Pagan circles attribute to the Nordic worldview, these have little to do with original Nordic-Aryan spirituality. They are instead distorted reflections of the twilight phase of a Hyperborean-origin race, epitomized by the term ragna-rokkr—often romantically translated as "twilight of the gods" but more accurately meaning the "darkening of the divine," signifying the end of a cycle. This is not a foundation for a worldview but a mere episode in a larger cyclical process. Wagner's art, often celebrated, is a counterfeit of true Nordic traditions, reducing their heroic and solar essence to a humanist parody. Similarly, romanticism, with its sentimental and confused impulses, reflects only the inferior, twilight aspects of these traditions, further obscuring their true nature.

The same applies to the "paganism" glorified in Humanism and the Renaissance, which focuses on immanentism, the "affirmation of life," and the "rediscovery of the sanctity of the body and beauty." This is a desecrated paganism, embracing only the superficial and inferior aspects of the ancient world. Humanism represents a mutilated humanity, turning away from the transcendent in favor of earthly conquest, leading to individualism, universalist leveling, and the erosion of racial and cultural traditions. This process culminates in a Judaisation of culture and a desacralized worldview, far removed from the true spirit of origins.

Such "paganism" aligns with the negative sense promoted by Christian apologetics, reflecting a profound ignorance of the potential paths for positive racialist action. Instead of transcending upward, these movements descend, playing into the hands of their adversaries.

These reflections are offered on a purely principled level to clarify the values of ancient Aryan spirituality and to prevent confusion. They do not propose specific solutions for modern reformist movements seeking new spiritual forms but emphasize that any such efforts must at least match the spiritual altitude of Western tradition. Catholic dogmatism, for instance, serves as a barrier against the excesses of immanent mysticism, maintaining a boundary for transcendent knowledge. While Christianity's adoption of transcendence may require rectification—particularly due to non-Aryan influences—it is essential to avoid profane criticism that reduces Aryanism to immanentism, pantheism, or the cult of "nature" and "life." Such approaches lead to an inferior level, far from the true spirit of origins and into the realm of anti-tradition.

These considerations may displease both "pagan" and Christian racists, as they are rooted in impartial truth and experience. They do not advocate for specific revisions within Italian racism but highlight the need for a spiritually revolutionary worldview that avoids the errors and equivocations discussed. In this endeavor, doctrinal clarity, rigorous knowledge, and a rejection of dilettantism and emotional impulses are paramount. Only a precise understanding of primordial traditions can guide such a movement effectively.

Metaphysical part:

This brings us to a final, crucial point regarding the hidden dynamics of ordinary sexual relations. From a metaphysical perspective, the male embodies the active principle, while the female embodies the passive principle. However, in natural sexuality, this relationship is often inverted. Men rarely approach women as pure embodiments of "being" or as manifestations of the One's power. Instead, they typically "undergo" the woman's magnetic influence. This inversion is encapsulated in Titus Burckhardt's observation that woman is "actively passive," while man is "passively active." The "actively passive" nature of woman constitutes her essence of fascination, representing a higher form of activity. This is reflected in the common notion that women possess the power of "attraction," akin to a magnet's force. In this dynamic, woman is active, and man is passive. As it is often said, "In the struggle for love, woman appears almost passive, but this passivity is far from real. It is the passivity of the magnet, whose apparent stillness draws iron into its vortex."

This principle is evident even in the patriarchal societies of the Far East, where traditions like "acting without acting" (wei-wu-wei) recognize the superiority of the female in her apparent passivity. Paradoxically, it is always the man who is "seduced" in the etymological sense; his active pursuit is reduced to entering a magnetic field, where he becomes subject to its force. Woman, in her decisive power, always holds the upper hand over desiring men. Rather than giving herself, she "makes herself be taken." This idea is vividly expressed in A. Charmel's Dernière semaine de Don Juan, where Don Juan's conquests are revealed as facets of a single, faceless woman (the eternal feminine or Durga) who orchestrated his seductions. He desired them "as iron desires the magnet," a realization that ultimately led to his demise.

The priapic man is deluded in believing he "possesses" a woman simply through physical union. A woman's pleasure in being "possessed" is an elemental trait; she is not taken but welcomes, and in welcoming, she absorbs and conquers. This dynamic finds a biological parallel in the interaction between germinal cells: the spermatozoon, though active and initiative-driven, lacks vital substance and is ultimately absorbed by the ovum, which is rich in nourishment and seemingly passive. The woman's yielding is so profound that it surpasses the man's aggressive pursuit in its active nature. Psychologically, during coitus, the man often becomes passive, his attention irresistibly drawn to the woman's physical and psychic states, which become the catalyst for his rapture.

In mythological symbolism, the "nonacting" power of woman is represented by figures like Potnia Theron, Cybele, and Durga, who dominate wild beasts, symbolizing their sovereignty. Similarly, in Tarot symbolism, the card of Strength depicts a woman effortlessly holding open the jaws of a lion. Every woman, as a participant in the "absolute woman," possesses this force to some degree. Men, often unconsciously compensating for an inferiority complex, may display exaggerated masculinity, indifference, or brutality, but this only underscores their vulnerability to woman's subtle power. While women may appear victimized on external or social levels, this does not alter the fundamental dynamic.

On a deeper level, man's passivity increases the more he embodies materialistic, instinctive, or sensual traits. The Western ideal of manhood—the activist, the achiever, the athlete, or the man of "iron will"—is often the most susceptible to woman's subtle influence. In contrast, Eastern civilizations, such as those of India and Arabia, have a more refined understanding of true manliness, which diverges significantly from the Western archetype.

In summary, the apparent activity of men and passivity of women pertain only to the superficial plane. On a deeper level, woman is active ("actively passive"), and man is passive ("passively active"). In procreation, it is the woman who absorbs and possesses. This inversion characterizes profane eros, creating its inherent ambiguity. Transcendence in erotic ecstasy is rare in ordinary relationships, as the metaphysical order is only restored when eros is elevated to sacred purposes. In such contexts, the polarity is reversed, and man becomes truly active, embodying the virya's higher potential. This sacred inversion is symbolized in Tantric practices like viparita-maithuna, where man's stillness signifies his higher activity, immune to the enchantments of woman or the allure of "naked Diana."

Title: The Misguided Path of Neo-Paganism and the Loss of Transcendence
Tags: #Evola #Traditionalism #NeoPaganism #Transcendence #AryanSpirituality #Christianity #ModernDegeneration

1. Transcending Christianity: The possibility of transcending Christianity lies not in denying it but in integrating it into a broader framework, aligning it with pre-Christian Aryan spirituality. This requires discerning its essential aspects while discarding those incompatible with the renewing forces of the modern world.
2. Neo-Paganism’s Trap: Modern neo-paganism has fallen into a trap, reducing itself to a naturalistic, particularistic, and pantheistic mysticism. This distorted view stems from a Christian misunderstanding of pre-Christian traditions and represents a degeneration of true Aryan spirituality.
3. Anti-Catholic Polemics: Many neo-pagans adopt anti-Catholic arguments rooted in modern rationalism, Protestantism, and Enlightenment thought. These arguments, often aligned with liberalism and democracy, betray a lack of understanding of true traditional values.
4. Immanence vs. Transcendence: Neo-paganism’s exaltation of immanence, “life,” and “nature” contradicts the Olympian and heroic ideals of ancient Aryan civilizations. True spirituality transcends the material world, a concept lost in modern neo-paganism.
5. Denial of the Supra-Sensible: The rejection of a supra-sensible world and the denial of the distinction between body and mind are signs of involution. Such views align with materialistic and anti-traditional thought, undermining the Aryan spirit’s connection to transcendence.
6. Misunderstanding of Asceticism: Neo-paganism rejects asceticism, failing to recognize its role in traditional Aryan spirituality. True mysticism involves a balance between the material and the spiritual, not a rejection of the latter.
7. Ritual and the Sacred: Ancient Aryan civilizations understood ritual as a bridge between human and supra-sensible forces. Modern neo-paganism dismisses this, reducing sacred practices to superstition or empty ceremony.
8. Misinterpretation of Nature: The neo-pagan glorification of “nature” is a rationalist construct, influenced by Enlightenment thought. This contrasts sharply with the traditional view of nature as a realm to be transcended through spiritual discipline.
9. Lutheranism and Semitisation: Lutheranism, far from awakening the Nordic spirit, contributed to its involution and Semitisation. This misunderstanding reflects a broader trend of misinterpreting historical movements through a modern lens.
10. The Choice Ahead: The modern world faces a clear choice: return to sacred traditions and spiritual origins or continue down the path of secularism and materialism. Only by reconnecting with true Aryan spirituality can the errors of neo-paganism and modernity be overcome.

OTHER “PAGAN” MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT WORLDVIEW

Once these points are established, the possibility of "transcending" certain aspects of Christianity becomes viable. Etymologically, "to transcend" means "to go beyond from above." This does not imply a denial of Christianity or a repetition of the misunderstandings it historically displayed—and often still displays—toward "paganism." Instead, it suggests integrating Christianity into a broader framework, potentially overlooking some of its elements that clash with the spirit of contemporary renewing forces, particularly in Germanic regions. The goal would be to emphasize more essential aspects of Christianity that align with the spiritual conceptions of pre- and non-Christian Aryan and Nordic-Aryan traditions.

Unfortunately, the path taken by extreme racialist neo-paganism has diverged significantly. These neo-pagans have, as if trapped, adopted a superficial, naturalistic paganism devoid of light and transcendence. This form of paganism is particularistic yet infused with a misguided pantheistic mysticism, shaped by Christian polemics against the pre-Christian world. At best, it reflects sporadic degenerations of that world. Compounding this, many neo-pagans engage in anti-Catholic polemics that echo modern, rationalist, and Protestant arguments, reminiscent of liberalism, democracy, and Freemasonry. Figures like Chamberlain and certain Italian racialist trends influenced by Gentile’s philosophy exemplify this, equating Fascism with anti-Catholicism and reducing Roman tradition to a rhetoric of rebellion and heresy, starting with figures like Giordano Bruno.

More broadly, neo-paganism’s exaltation of immanence, "life," and "nature" contradicts the superior "Olympian" and "heroic" ideals of ancient Aryan civilizations. Statements such as "Faith in a supra-sensible world is schizophrenia" or the denial of the distinction between body and mind as an anti-Aryan, Orientaloid construct further illustrate this regression. By rejecting the soul’s immortality and reducing it to mere generational continuity, neo-paganism aligns itself with a materialistic worldview vulnerable to annihilation by natural disasters or epidemics.

Neo-paganism also displays a profound misunderstanding of asceticism, claiming that Aryans never practiced it and that their mysticism was solely focused on the "hither side." This ignores the ritualistic and sacred character of ancient Aryan and Roman civilizations, where rites served as a bridge between human and supra-sensible forces, not as empty ceremonies. Chamberlain’s attribution of modern secular scientific inquiry to the Aryan spirit further distorts the traditional understanding of nature and knowledge.

The confusion deepens when neo-pagans, influenced by Enlightenment rationalism, exalt a constructed "nature" akin to the French Encyclopaedists’ myth of a benevolent, wise nature. This myth, tied to Rousseau’s optimism and natural law, has fueled universalism, humanitarianism, and egalitarianism, undermining traditional hierarchies and states. Similarly, modern natural sciences, focused on abstract uniformities, fail to grasp the sacred and symbolic understanding of nature held by traditional, solar man.

In light of these misconceptions, the choice becomes clear: either return to sacred and spiritual traditions or continue to indulge in the fragmented and secular tendencies of modern thought. Italian racism, having not yet fully ventured into these areas, should heed the lessons of others and avoid these pitfalls.

Metaphysical part:

At a certain stage of spiritual development, it becomes clear that the myths of the Mystery religions are allegories of the states of consciousness experienced by initiates on the path to self-realization. The deeds and adventures of mythical heroes are not mere poetry but real inner experiences, reflecting the actions of one’s inner being as they progress beyond ordinary human existence. These are not abstract allegories but lived realities. The philosophical or allegorical interpretation of myths remains superficial, akin to naturalistic or anthropomorphic readings. True understanding requires prior knowledge; otherwise, the "door" remains closed. This applies to the inner meaning of the Mithras myth as well.

The Mithraic mysteries are central to the Western magical tradition, embodying self-affirmation, light, greatness, and regal spirituality. This path rejects escapism, religious asceticism, self-mortification, humility, devotion, renunciation, and contemplative abstraction. It is a path of action, solar power, and spirituality, distinct from both Eastern universalism and Christian sentimentalism. Only a "man" can tread this path; a "woman" would be overwhelmed by its "taurine strength." The radiant Mithraic halo, the hvareno, emerges from intense tension and crowns the "eagle" capable of staring at the Sun.

Mithras symbolizes those who follow this path. He is the primordial heavenly light, a "god born from a rock" (theos ek petras). Emerging from the riverbank, he frees himself from the mineral darkness using a sword and torch, tools from his time in the "mother’s womb." This miraculous birth is witnessed only by "shepherds" on the "mountaintops." These symbols represent the initiation phase, where the heavenly light, the light of the Word, is rekindled in the initiate. This spiritual birth occurs when one breaks free from the "god of this earth" and resists the chaotic "waters" of ordinary life, characterized by frenzied activity, greed, and transience.

The initiate is "rescued from the waters," akin to Moses in Exodus, and "walks on water," echoing Christ’s miracle. Such a being masters their cravings and deficiencies, learning to resist and transcend them. In contrast, those of the "sub-lunar world" remain trapped in cycles of death and reabsorption. Initiation is like crossing a river, leaving behind the miseries of ordinary life, battling the current, and reaching the opposite bank where a new spiritual being—Mithras, the Divine Child—is born.

The "rock" symbolizes the body, the substratum of cosmic yearning, dominated by the "wet principle." Initiation requires freedom from this bodily limitation, achieving a consciousness no longer bound by physical constraints. The phrase theos ek petras also signifies the individuation and actualization of the spiritual element within the body. Magical initiation strengthens this nucleus of energy rather than dissolving it into cosmic flux. The spirit is immanent, needing elevation from the "rock" of human reality, which is divine by nature, not grace. Hence, Mithras is petrogenos, born from the Earth, not descended from Heaven.

The "nakedness" of the divine child symbolizes purity, autarchy, and detachment. In esoteric traditions, an impure will is one driven by external factors, unable to act independently. The pure will, symbolized by the "Virgin," tramples the "Snake" and the "Moon" (symbols of the waters) and gives birth to the divine child through a "virginal conception." This autozoon, a self-generated life beyond human contingency, arises from a purified will, free of all bonds. In Mithraic ritual, the soul’s uncontaminated purity generates a new nucleus beyond the waters, populating a world beyond human dimensions, space, and time.
