Title: The Decline of Christian Morality: A Cultural Rebellion Against Divine Order Tags: #Christianity #slavemorality #Tradition #Evola #RevoltAgainstTheModernWorld

What is unclear, the three Abrahamic religions are aligned with the lunar cycle.

Christianity represents a slave morality, a decadent inversion of true spiritual hierarchy. It glorifies weakness, exalts the humble, and denies the sacred order of domination and transcendence. Its promise of salvation is a consolation for the defeated, a metaphysical rebellion against the aristocratic spirit.

Metaphysical part:

Our civilization suffers from a fundamental dichotomy—the core of its crisis. On one side lies a lifeless culture, an ethics of doubt, a faith alien to our true nature. On the other, an explosive yet barbaric materialism dominates, reducing action to mere mechanistic frenzy. This imbalance stems from the West’s inherent tradition of action—but action now stripped of transcendence, severed from the sacred.

The root of this decay is obscured, though Christianity bears partial blame. A foreign creed, Semitic-Southern in origin, it ruptured rather than enriched our ancient Aryan-Roman legacy. Like a psychological inhibition, its dualistic spirit stifled true sublimation, diverting suppressed energies into materialistic frenzy. By denying the path of absolute spiritual ascent, Christianity forced action into the profane realm, where it degenerated into empty agitation—action for action’s sake, shackled to temporal ends.

From the Reformation onward, this decay became irreversible. Now, at history’s crossroads, the elite must revolt—restoring the sacred deed, the spiritualized act. Only through this return can the Aryan West reclaim its soul, fulfilling its heroic destiny and rising from ruin.

Know your caste—transgressing your nature brings decay. True order: workers submit to merchants, merchants to warriors, warriors to the sacred king. Tradition is hierarchy. #Evola #Traditionalism #Hierarchy #Castes

The globalists fools, still haven’t grasped the decentralizing principle of the internet. But when one has “a bourgeois mentality”—which is what globalists truly are—they represent “the revolt of merchants against their superiors”: the aristocrats since the Renaissance in Europe.

On the internet, you know you’re “on a globalist platform” when you get banned.

If this happens, there’s no reason to be unsettled—and if you are, examine your inner motivations and identify where you’re clinging.

I must emphasize: if “your nature is not that of a warrior,” do not engage in battles; you are not made for it. For me, it’s amusement, because it’s my nature. There have always been classes in every society—”each in their place.” Do not venture into another’s class, for your nature will deteriorate if you venture into others.

Metaphysical part:

The analogy between the political order and the human organism has ancient roots, reflecting a higher principle of hierarchical organization. In every advanced form of social structure, four distinct functions emerge in a strict vertical order. At the base lies undifferentiated vital energy, governed by the economic and productive sphere. Above this stands the organizing will, directing the collective movement. At the summit resides the intellect and sovereign power, embodying the transcendent principle that illuminates the entire order.

True traditions upheld this sacred hierarchy, structuring society into castes mirroring these functions: the servile class (workers), the mercantile class, the warrior aristocracy, and the spiritual-regal elite. Each caste was subordinate to the one above—the masses ruled by economic experts, merchants guided by warriors, and warriors united under a sacred king, who embodied a divine authority beyond mere humanity.

This order was fully realized in the ancient Orient (particularly India) and the Far East. Fragments of it persisted in Greco-Roman civilization, echoed in Plato and Aristotle, and were partially restored in the Catholic-feudal synthesis of the Middle Ages.

Me: The issue is not androgyny itself, but rather egalitarianism and democracy.

“To answer my questions, I turned not to biology but to traditional myth—specifically, the myth of the androgyne, which Plato articulated in the Symposium as the foundation of his understanding of sex. The androgyne represents the primordial, complete, and immortal being, whose division gives rise to the duality of the sexes. Thus, the sexual impulse is ultimately a metaphysical drive—a yearning for reintegration, a striving to transcend the fragmented, conditioned state of existence and restore the absolute unity of the original being. In this light, sexuality is marked by a hyper-physical intensity, akin to those sacred states through which the ancient world sought direct experience of the transcendent.”

What all neo-pagan materialists fear is precisely this internal feminine domination. They have failed to castrate the feminine power within themselves, leaving it as the dominant force in their being.

Evola’s statement critiques modern neo-pagan and materialist ideologies for their failure to master the internal feminine principle, which he associates with passivity, chaos, and dissolution. In his traditionalist framework, true spiritual and masculine superiority (virility) requires the domination or “castration” of the feminine—not in a literal sense, but as an inner conquest over emotionalism, irrationality, and attachment to the material world.

On Masonic Symbolism and Its Degeneration:

The flaw of Freemasonry lies in its very foundation—its democratic ethos, which exalts the lunar over the solar.

Lunar spirituality is regressive, sub-terranean, and chthonic—bound to the forces of dissolution, chaos, and the telluric (earthly) abyss. It is the spirituality of the feminine, the matriarchal, and the democratic masses, fostering weakness, emotionalism, and surrender to the baser instincts.

Title: Birth Into Life and Immortality: The Alchemical Path to the Eternal
Tags: #Evola #Hermeticism #Alchemy #Tradition #Immortality #SpiritualTransmutation #Metaphysics #Initiation #PerennialWisdom

  1. The White Stone & Immortality – The attainment of the “white stone” signifies victory over death, where consciousness transcends material dependency, achieving continuity beyond earthly existence.
  2. The Naked Diana & Luminous Form – The unveiled Diana in Hermeticism parallels the radiant “body of light” in Hindu tradition, liberated through the funeral pyre, symbolizing transition to supraphysical states.
  3. Alchemical Taoism & the Subtle Body – The construction of an immortal subtle form replaces the gross body, achieved through sublimation and extraction of the imperishable elements within man.
  4. Condensation vs. Mystical Dissolution – Unlike passive mystical union, true immortality requires “coagulation”—an active reintegration of the self into a higher, individuated state.
  5. Physical Regeneration as Esoteric Fact – Hindu alchemy teaches conscious mastery over the life-force, allowing complete bodily regeneration through direct contact with the formative power behind organic existence.
  6. The Life-Force Beyond Death – The regenerated man is no longer bound to a single body; his center shifts to the animating life-force, which persists like an unextinguished flame across manifestations.
  7. The Glorious Body – The “glorious body” (Hermetic Silver) is not a physical form but the immutable principle behind all manifestation, where body and spirit become inseparable.
  8. Spiritualization of the Body – This is not a dissolution into subtle matter but the body’s total subordination to the spirit, erasing its autonomy while maintaining external appearance.
  9. The Rebis: Two That Are One – The androgyne symbolizes the non-dual union of spirit and matter—not a fusion of separate elements but the realization of their primordial unity.
  10. The Written Manuscript Analogy – Just as understanding a language transforms meaningless signs into intelligible expressions, the “spiritualized body” ceases to be an external object and becomes a pure vehicle of the awakened will.
    “The body is no longer a tomb, but a living temple of the immortal.”

Birth into Life and Immortality

Upon attaining the “white,” the conditions for immortality are fulfilled. As the alchemical dictum states: “When the materia turns white, our king has conquered death.” The “white stone” signifies that consciousness is no longer bound to the mortal body but persists in higher states of being, transcending material existence. At death, the soul does not perish; rather, it unites with the purified body, illuminated by the divine fire, forming an indissoluble triad of soul, spirit, and body, radiant with celestial clarity. Thus, death becomes the final clarification.

This luminous form—symbolized in Hermeticism by Diana unveiled, in Hinduism by the radiant body freed from the funeral pyre, and in Taoist alchemy by the immortal subtle body—represents the metaphysical vehicle for transcendent existence. It is not a physical body but the power that manifests form, the permanent essence behind transient matter. As René Guénon explains, the “glorious body” of Gnostic tradition is not a body in the ordinary sense but its transfiguration beyond individual limitations, the immutable principle behind all manifestation.

The key to immortality lies in the conscious mastery of the life-force itself. Hindu alchemy teaches that regeneration occurs when consciousness penetrates the vital power that shapes the body, retracing its formative stages. The “living man” is one who has awakened this inner force, no longer subject to organic decay. His being is no longer ruled by the body; instead, the body becomes an expression of the spirit.

This transmutation is not a physical dissolution but a shift in function—where the body, outwardly unchanged, ceases to exist for itself and becomes purely an instrument of the spirit. The “spiritual body” is not an ethereal phantom but the same body now fixed in its immortal principle. As alchemical texts state, the body and spirit are reduced to “the same simplicity,” united like water poured into water.

The Hermetic Rebis (androgyne) symbolizes this unity—not as a fusion of two separate principles but as the realization that they were never truly divided. The body is but a phase of the spirit’s manifestation, and the Great Work consists in recognizing this non-duality.

An analogy: a manuscript in an unknown language is merely an object to the uninitiated, but to one who understands, the physical signs dissolve into meaning. Similarly, the “regenerated” body is outwardly unchanged, yet inwardly it is no longer a passive vessel but an active expression of the spirit. The “spiritual body” is indistinguishable from the ordinary—except that it is no longer bound by mortal conditions.

Thus, true immortality is not escape from form but mastery over it—the fixation of the volatile, the embodiment of the spirit, and the spiritualization of the body as a single, transcendent act.

The Royal Art of Magic: 10 Forbidden Truths About Power

Title: The Magical Path: Power, Initiation, and the Regal Tradition
Tags: #Tradition #Magic #Initiation #Power #Evola

  1. Magic as Superior Science – True magic transcends vulgar occultism, aligning with the ars regia—the royal art of spiritual dominion. It is not mere psychic manipulation but a path to primordial reintegration.
  2. Spiritual Virility – The magus embodies spiritual masculinity: dominance, sovereignty, and detachment. Unlike passive mysticism, magic demands active mastery over forces, both inner and outer.
  3. Power Attracts the Centered – Power seeks the initiate who has become an immovable axis—not the one who craves it. Desire for power scatters it; impassibility magnetizes it.
  4. Dangers of the Powers – Powers are perilous. If the initiate’s inner resolve wavers, they consume him. Mastery requires unbroken tension—like a pillar unmoved by torrents.
  5. Rejection of Powers is Absurd – Powers are intrinsic to the initiate’s metaphysical state, like nirvana. One does not “renounce” them—they are the chrism of his being.
  6. The Misunderstood Magus – The profane imagines a magus as an ordinary man with added “powers.” In truth, the magus is a different order of being—his desires and interests are transfigured.
  7. Magic vs. Technology – Modern technology mimics low magic: automatic, externalized effects. True magic is causal evidence, an emanation of the initiate’s unified being.
  8. The Heroic and Regal Path – Magic aligns with the warrior-initiate tradition, not priestly contemplation. The “hero” (Hesiod’s demi-god) reclaims the divine state through action.
  9. The Trial of Active Identity – Some traditions (e.g., Islamic esotericism, the Bhagavad Gita) teach that mastery over action is the test—transcending ecstatic passivity for sovereign manifestation.
  10. Beyond Good and Evil – The adept’s actions stem from the invariable middle—neither “good” nor “evil,” but from the center, where opposites dissolve in the impersonal will.
    “Power is feminine: she obeys only him who does not seek her.”

On Magic and Its Powers

The term “magic” must be clarified beyond modern distortions—whether vulgar Anglo-Saxon pursuits of “personal magnetism” or the degraded forms of ancient ritualistic magic, which often amounted to mere manipulation of subtle forces for practical ends. However, limiting magic to these inferior expressions is shortsighted.

True magic aligns with higher initiatic traditions. The Persian Magi, for instance, were not mere sorcerers but bearers of a sacred science linked to power (mögen in Germanic roots). Even Christianity, while condemning “accursed” magic, retained the term magi for the three exalted figures at Christ’s birth—symbols of initiatic dignity. Renaissance Hermeticists like Cesare della Riviera spoke of magic as the art of restoring the primordial state, reopening the path to the “Tree of Life.” This is high magic, distinct from ceremonial theurgy or lower psychic operations.

Magic, in its pure form, is the ars regia—the royal art of spiritual dominion. It is experimental, active, and virile, opposed to passive mysticism or priestly mediation. The magus embodies the regal tradition, which surpasses the priestly in its direct connection to the divine. Ancient kings—Egyptian pharaohs, Roman pontifices maximi, Persian and Japanese emperors—were not mere rulers but living symbols of transcendent authority. The usurpation of such titles by priestly castes (as in Catholicism) marks a decline.

The magus does not seek power; power seeks him, drawn to his centered being, his impassible dominance. Power is feminine, requiring a masculine principle to command it. But this mastery is perilous: failure of inner resolve means being consumed by the very forces one sought to wield.

Powers are not toys for profane desires. The true magus is fundamentally different from ordinary men—his being transformed, his interests elevated beyond petty ambitions. What the vulgar mind imagines as “magical power” (wands, spells, instant effects) is a caricature. Real magic operates from a state of absolute knowledge-causality, where act and will are one.

Yet magical operations can serve as initiatic training—a “sport” of the spirit, forging discipline and control. Beyond this, the adept who has realized his essence may act impersonally, beyond good and evil, as an instrument of the “Center.” Such actions transcend human motives, reflecting the invariable middle where all oppositions dissolve.

Key Principles of Magical Power

  1. Power Seeks the Worthy – Not pursued, but attracted by one who embodies centrality, hardness, and renunciation. Desire for power repels it; impassibility commands it.
  2. The Danger of Powers – A lapse in resolve turns power against the wielder, reducing him below his former state.
  3. Rejection of Powers is Absurd – Powers are intrinsic to initiatic dignity, like nirvana to the awakened. One may refrain from using them, but not “reject” their essence.
  4. The Magus is Transformed – The possessor of true power is no longer an ordinary man; his desires align with his being, rendering vulgar ambitions meaningless.
  5. Magic is Not Miraculous – True magic is causal, evident, and conscious—unlike the mechanical “wonders” of degenerate or technological pseudo-magic.
  6. Magic as Initiatic Training – Lower operations can serve as discipline, but fixation on contingent effects is a deviation. The highest magic is action from the “Center,” beyond duality.

The regal and magical path is one of virile spirituality, opposed to priestly passivity. It restores the primordial tradition—where the king was god, the magus was sovereign, and power was the natural attribute of the awakened Self.

Awakening the Serpent Power: The Truth About Chakras & Kundalini (Beyond Psychology!)

Title: The Serpent Power: The Chakras
Tags: #Evola #Tantra #Yoga #Kundalini #Metaphysics #Tradition #Chakras #ShivaShakti #Initiation #HathaYoga

  1. The Microcosm-Macrocosm Analogy
    The body mirrors the cosmos; inner forces correspond to outer powers.
  2. The Three Bodies
    Material (waking state), subtle (dream state), causal (deep sleep). The fourth state (turiya) transcends all.
  3. Hatha Yoga’s Goal
    To awaken superconsciousness, not regression into trance or hypnosis.
  4. The Chakras
    Seven centers along the spine, each corresponding to a tattva (element) and a divine power.
  5. Kundalini Shakti
    Latent at the base (muladhara), coiled like a serpent. Awakening it reverses polarity from procreative to spiritual.
  6. Prana and Apana
    Opposing currents unified in yoga—solar (pingala) and lunar (ida)—consumed in the sushumna (central channel).
  7. The Awakening
    Kundalini rises through the chakras, dissolving duality (Shiva-Shakti union at each center).
  8. Beyond Time
    Sushumna’s ascent suspends temporal consciousness, leading to immortality.
  9. The Sahasrara
    Crown chakra—Shiva’s abode—final reintegration beyond form.
  10. Rejection of Modern Distortions
    Psychoanalysis (Freud, Jung) misinterprets yoga as therapy; it is a path for the elect, not the neurotic.

The Serpent Power: The Chakras

Hatha yoga, particularly in its Tantric form, is synonymous with Kundalini yoga. Its Buddhist counterpart is vajrarupa-guhya—the “mystery of the diamond-thunderbolt body.” This discipline operates on the premise of a microcosmic-macrocosmic correspondence: all cosmic forces are mirrored within the human body. The Tantras declare: “That which appears without only so appears because it exists within.”

The human body is not merely physical but comprises three dimensions: the material (sthula-rupa), the subtle (sukshma-rupa), and the causal (karana-rupa). Ordinary consciousness is bound to the material body, while the subtle and causal bodies correspond to higher states of being, typically inaccessible to the common man. Hatha yoga seeks to awaken these latent dimensions, transcending the limitations of ordinary existence.

Modern psychoanalysis, particularly the theories of Freud and Jung, fundamentally misunderstands yoga. Psychoanalysis reduces the unconscious to a dark, irrational substratum, whereas yoga treats it as a field of metaphysical realities that can be illuminated and mastered. Yoga does not aim to heal neurosis but to elevate a healthy individual beyond the human condition.

The Chakras and Kundalini

The body's occult anatomy consists of centers (chakras) that correspond to cosmic principles (tattvas). These centers—muladhara, svadhishthana, manipura, anahata, vishuddha, ajna, and sahasrara—are loci of spiritual power. The muladhara-chakra, at the base of the spine, houses Kundalini Shakti—the dormant serpent-power symbolizing latent divine energy.

Kundalini's awakening requires reversing the natural flow of vital currents (prana and apana), unifying the solar (pingala) and lunar (ida) channels, and directing energy through the central sushumna—the “Middle Path” leading to transcendence. This process dissolves temporal consciousness, symbolizing a metaphysical rebirth beyond death.

The Ascent Through the Chakras

Each chakra represents a stage in the reabsorption (laya) of Shakti into Shiva, reversing the cosmic process of manifestation. The lower chakras correspond to elemental forces, while the higher (ajna and sahasrara) pertain to pure intellect and supreme unity. The awakening of each center involves the union of its presiding deity (Shiva-aspect) and Shakti, dissolving duality.

The culmination is the sahasrara, the “thousand-petaled lotus” at the crown, where Shiva and Shakti reunite in transcendental unity. This is the seat of immortal consciousness, beyond all conditioned existence.

Conclusion

Kundalini yoga is not mere mystical experience but a rigorous path of self-mastery, demanding control over awakened forces. It transcends modern psychological interpretations, aiming instead at metaphysical reintegration—a return to the primordial, unconditioned state.

Title: On the Counter-Initiation – The subversion of true spirituality by inverted forces Tags: #Tradition #CounterInitiation #SpiritualWarfare #Guénon #Evola

  1. Counter-Initiation Defined – Forces working to distort and subvert genuine spiritual aspirations, replacing them with materialism, disorder, and false ideologies.
  2. Beyond Good & Evil – Not merely a moral struggle, but an objective metaphysical battle against non-human influences corrupting civilizations.
  3. Hidden Hand of Revolutions – Historical subversions are orchestrated by occult forces, masked as political or social movements.
  4. Positivism as Deception – The denial of transcendent realities (materialism, scientism) is itself a tool of the counter-initiation.
  5. Modern Occultism’s Trap – False spirituality (Theosophy, psychism, neo-occultism) lures seekers into inferior psychic realms, not true transcendence.
  6. Pantheism as Inversion – The illusion of “cosmic unity” dissolves the individual into lower psychic forces, opposed to genuine metaphysical ascent.
  7. Mediums & False Contacts – Psychic phenomena and deceptive revelations often stem from regressive, subpersonal forces masquerading as higher knowledge.
  8. Degenerate Initiatic Chains – Some “initiatic” lineages have inverted into counter-tradition, serving anti-hierarchical and destructive ends.
  9. The West’s Fatal Path – Modernity’s rejection of transcendence (Renaissance → Enlightenment) aligns it with counter-initiatory forces.
  10. Spiritual Defense – Only adherence to true traditional doctrines and initiatic discipline can resist these corrosive influences.

On the Counter-Initiation

Those who seek to transcend human limitations and attain higher knowledge must recognize the existence of what René Guénon termed the Counter-Initiation. They must also understand its various manifestations and the means it employs to achieve its ends.

At its core, the Counter-Initiation represents forces that infiltrate human domains—both individually and collectively—to distort true spirituality, obscure truth, falsify values, and promote materialism, disorder, and subversion. This is not merely a moral or religious struggle between “good” and “evil,” but a far more objective and concrete action, often unrecognized even by religious authorities, who may unwittingly fall victim to it.

Historically, no subversive movement lacks an occult origin. One of the most insidious modern deceptions is positivism, which denies these hidden influences, attributing all events to tangible historical causes. This mentality serves the Counter-Initiation perfectly—just as some have noted that the devil’s greatest trick is convincing men he does not exist.

Revolutions and ideological upheavals are not merely political or social phenomena; they are spiritual attacks, often bearing the mark of nonhuman forces. Guénon meticulously exposed how these influences shaped the “modern mentality,” even in supposedly rational domains like science. Materialism and scientism are not accidental but deliberate limitations imposed to obscure higher realities.

When materialism’s grip weakens, and people begin sensing the invisible world, the Counter-Initiation shifts tactics. Instead of outright denial, it diverts seekers toward false spirituality—toward the subnormal rather than the supernormal. Modern occultism, spiritualism, and psychism exploit this, luring individuals into inferior psychic phenomena rather than true metaphysical realization.

Pantheism, vitalism, and irrationalist cults of “Life” further this deviation. They promote a false transcendence—a dissolution into “cosmic consciousness” that is actually a regression into the Lower Waters of chaotic psychic forces, mistaking disintegration for enlightenment. Guénon warned that this is not liberation but spiritual drowning.

Behind these distortions lie intelligent, nonhuman forces—some mere corrosive influences, others conscious agents of inversion. Guénon spoke of a “deviated initiation,” where initiatic knowledge is corrupted into its opposite. Evola expanded this, showing how Western man’s pursuit of absolute autonomy—from the Renaissance to the myth of the Superman—aligns him with the Counter-Initiation’s destructive path.

For those committed to true esoteric disciplines, recognizing these dangers is essential. The modern world teems with false movements, lodges, and ideologies that serve these inverted forces. Without proper discernment, seekers risk not elevation but spiritual degradation—a fate far worse than mere materialism.

Metaphysical part:

The Crisis of Modernity and the Metaphysical Beyond

The crisis of the modern world manifests on both social and spiritual planes. Bourgeois society and civilization have reached their breaking point, while the process of “emancipation” has unfolded in two ways: first, as a purely destructive and regressive force, and second, as a trial of complete inner liberation for a differentiated human type.

A key factor in this dissolution has been the recognition that Western religiosity—particularly Christianity—remains bound to the “all too human,” lacking any real connection to transcendent values. Christianity, unlike other traditional forms, is fundamentally incomplete, missing an esoteric, metaphysical dimension beyond exoteric faith. Without this higher teaching, Christianity was vulnerable to the assaults of free thought, unlike traditions that preserved an inner doctrine beyond mere religion.

Nietzsche proclaimed the “death of God,” but this was only the death of the moral God—the personal deity shaped by human weakness and social values. Beyond this lies the true metaphysical God, a principle transcending good and evil, found in the great pre-Christian traditions. Hinduism speaks of Shiva’s divine dance; Buddhism teaches the identity of samsara and nirvana; Neoplatonism points to the impersonal One. Even within Christianity, marginal currents—such as Joachim de Flore’s “Age of the Spirit” or the Brethren of the Free Spirit—hinted at a higher freedom beyond moral law.

The modern West has lost these metaphysical horizons, reducing the sacred to mere morality and devotion. Yet the collapse of the moral God opens the possibility of rediscovering a higher, metaphysical essence—one untouched by nihilism. This is not a God of faith or belief but an immanent-transcendent reality, a dimension of pure Being beyond human categories.

For the superior man, dissolution becomes a test of strength. He does not flee into religion but anchors himself in the transcendent within, turning chaos into an opportunity for awakening. As Seneca observed, adversity reveals true power. The modern world’s collapse can thus serve as a catalyst for those capable of perceiving the higher order behind apparent disorder.

The true challenge is existential: to confront life’s negativity while rooted in metaphysical certainty. This is not Stoic hardening or Nietzschean will-to-power but the conscious activation of the transcendent principle within. Even in disintegration, moments of liberation arise—where chaos is peripheral, and the center remains inviolate.

The task, then, is not to lament the death of the moral God but to reclaim the God beyond good and evil—the absolute foundation of Tradition.

“U.S. Department of Homeland Security DHS Secretary Kristi Noem on X: “I toured the CECOT, El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center. President Trump and I have a clear message to criminal illegal aliens: LEAVE NOW.
If you do not leave, we will hunt you down, arrest you, and you could end up in this El Salvadorian prison.“”

America is a parody

Title: The Degradation of War in the Modern World Tags: #Heroism #SpiritualWar #Degeneration #Evola #Tradition

  1. Heroism as the Justification of War – War awakens the latent hero within man, transcending the banality of material existence. A single heroic moment outweighs a lifetime of bourgeois comfort.
  2. Traditional Hierarchy – True order is structured by the four castes: serfs, bourgeoisie, warriors, and spiritual elite. The West’s decline mirrors the usurpation of power by lower castes.
  3. Sacred War versus Modern War – Ancient war was sacred (Roman rites, Nordic Valhalla). Modern war is profane, reduced to bourgeois nationalism or proletarian class struggle.
  4. The Warrior Aristocracy – The noble caste waged war for honor and transcendence, not material gain. Their decline heralded the rise of mercantile values.
  5. Crusades as Spiritual Combat – The knightly orders embodied the synthesis of asceticism and warfare, fighting for a “heavenly fief,” not territory.
  6. Islamic Jihad – Greater and Lesser – True jihad integrates external battle with inner mastery, a concept lost in modern distortions.
  7. Bhagavad Gita’s Metaphysics – Arjuna’s duty as a warrior is sacred action without attachment, seeing beyond life and death.
  8. Modern Pacifism as Decadence – The denial of war’s spiritual dimension reflects the West’s surrender to weakness and materialism.
  9. The Need for Sacred Restoration – Only by reclaiming war’s transcendent meaning can the West resist total dissolution.
  10. America as the Anti-Tradition – The U.S. embodies the final stage of decay: a rootless, deracinated parody of order, where even “strength” is a hollow spectacle (for example, political posturing over El Salvador’s prisons).
    Conclusion: The modern world laughs at heroism because it has forgotten the sacred. Until war is again seen as a path to the divine, the joke will remain on us.

The Spiritual Justification of War: Heroism and Tradition

The primary principle justifying war on a human level is heroism. War awakens the latent hero within man, shattering the monotony of comfortable existence and offering a transcendent understanding of life in the face of death. A single heroic moment outweighs an entire lifetime of mundane urban existence. This spiritual dimension counterbalances the destructive aspects of war emphasized by materialistic pacifism. War affirms the relativity of human life and the right of a “higher than life” principle, embodying an anti-materialist and spiritual value.

The Traditional Hierarchy and the Four Castes

Traditional civilizations were structured around a fourfold hierarchy: serfs, bourgeoisie, warrior aristocracy, and spiritual authority. These castes were not arbitrary divisions but reflected innate natures and vocations. A true hierarchy arises when the lower modes of life naturally depend on and participate in the higher, with the spiritual principle as the supreme reference.

The West’s decline follows an involutive process: sacred-aristocratic states gave way to warrior-monarchies, then bourgeois-capitalist oligarchies, and finally proletarian collectivism (Bolshevism). Each phase corresponds to a degradation of the ruling caste’s principle.

The Degradation of War

War’s meaning shifts according to the dominant caste:
1. Spiritual Caste: War as a sacred path, a means of supernatural realization (for example, “holy war”).
2. Warrior Aristocracy: War for honor, loyalty, and the pleasure of combat.
3. Bourgeoisie: War reduced to material interests, nationalistic or economic motives.
4. Serfs (Proletariat): War as class struggle, devoid of higher meaning (for example, Lenin’s “world revolution”).

True heroism requires war to be both a means (for collective ends) and an end (for individual spiritual realization). Only then does war attain its highest value.

Roman and Nordic Traditions of Heroic War

The ancient Romans saw war as a sacred act, governed by auguries and rites. Victory was attributed not to human prowess but to divine forces. The triumphator embodied Jupiter, symbolizing the transfiguration of the warrior into a divine instrument.

Nordic tradition held that death in battle granted access to Valhalla, where heroes join Odin’s eternal struggle against cosmic darkness. Similar concepts appear in Celtic, Persian, and Islamic traditions, where war is a path to immortality.

The Medieval Synthesis: Crusades as Holy War

The Crusades were not merely religious conflicts but manifestations of heroic spirituality. Knights fought not for earthly gain but for a “heavenly fief,” transcending national and material interests. The orders of Templars and Hospitallers embodied this ascetic-warrior ideal, merging discipline and sacred combat.

Islamic Jihad: The Greater and Lesser Holy War

Islam distinguishes between:
– The lesser jihad (external war against infidels).
– The greater jihad (internal war against base instincts).
The true warrior integrates both, fighting outwardly while mastering himself inwardly.

The Bhagavad Gita: Metaphysics of War

In the Gita, Krishna instructs Arjuna that the warrior’s duty is to act without attachment, seeing beyond life and death. The “enemy” is not merely external but also internal—the passions that bind the soul. True war is a sacrifice, a divine instrumentality.

Conclusion: War as a Sacred Path

Across traditions, war’s highest form is spiritual combat, where the hero becomes a vessel of transcendent forces. This stands in stark contrast to modern pacifism and materialist degradation. The task today is to restore war’s sacred dimension, aligning it with the eternal principles of hierarchy and heroism.

Title: Israel as a Synthetic Construct Tags: #Evola #Tradition #Zionism #ModernDecadence #SpiritualInauthenticity

  1. Artificial Nationhood: Israel is a modernist fabrication, imposed upon an ancient land without organic historical or spiritual continuity, reflecting the same rootlessness that plagues the modern world.
  2. Rejection of Sacred Order: The Zionist manipulation of the Temple Mount violates traditional Jewish prohibitions, exposing a politicized pseudo-religiosity devoid of genuine sacred connection.
  3. Cultural Deracination: Israel lacks an authentic cultural foundation, instead appropriating elements from diaspora Judaism and Palestinian heritage while fostering a hollow, consumerist identity (for example, electronic dance music as escapism).
  4. Mechanized Propaganda: Like all modernist regimes, Israel depends on relentless propaganda, lobbying, and psychological manipulation to sustain its artificial legitimacy.
  5. Imperial Pawn: Western support for Israel is not organic but engineered by oligarchic interests, serving as a destabilizing force in the Middle East to maintain imperial control over resources.
  6. Spiritual Bankruptcy: The forced revival of Hebrew as a “national language” mirrors modernity’s obsession with constructing identities, devoid of the living, traditional linguistic spirit.
  7. Media Subversion: The suppression of dissenting voices in Western media (for example, firings of critics like Briahna Joy Gray) reveals the totalitarian nature of Zionist influence, aligning with broader modernist thought-control.
  8. Celebrity Complicity: The coercion of Hollywood figures into pro-Israel postures exemplifies the degradation of elites into tools of ideological manipulation, betraying any remnant of aristocratic independence.
  9. Astroturfed Loyalty: Social media manipulation and fake grassroots support demonstrate the inherently inorganic nature of Zionism, reliant on deception rather than organic allegiance.
  10. Inevitable Collapse: As with all modernist aberrations, Israel’s synthetic existence is unsustainable—its reliance on force and fraud ensures eventual dissolution, as Tradition reasserts itself against decadence.

Conclusion: Israel epitomizes the crisis of the modern world—a rootless, artificial construct upheld by violence and lies, destined to fall before the return of true order.

This is why Israel appeals so much to Christians and nationalists—because for both, the spirit is severed from the material. Israel is a Western problem. If you destroy Israel, you destroy the modern conception of the materialist West.

Everything about Israel is fake. It’s a completely synthetic nation created without any regard for the organic sociopolitical movements of the land and its people, slapped rootless atop an ancient pre-existing civilisation with deep roots.

That’s why it cannot exist without being artificially propped up by nonstop propaganda, lobbying, online influence operations, and mass military violence.

Israel is so fake that its far right Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir has been stoking religious tensions by encouraging militant Zionists to pray on the Temple Mount — known to Muslims as Al-Aqsa.

This is an illustration of how phony Israel and its political ideology are because Jews were historically prohibited from praying at the Temple Mount under Jewish law; a sign placed there in 1967 and still upheld by Israel’s Chief Rabbinate reads, “According to Torah Law, entering the Temple Mount area is strictly forbidden due to the holiness of the site.”

It’s just this weird, evangelical Christian-like thing that Zionists have started doing in contravention of their own traditions and religious texts to advance their nationalist agendas.

Journalist Dan Cohen explains on Twitter:

“‘Prayer’ on the Temple Mount is 100% a Zionist invention in total contravention of Jewish law. Jews don’t step foot onto the Temple Mount, let alone ‘pray’ there. That’s why the sign below is posted at the entrance non-Muslims use.

“Ben Gvir publicly announced this in order to provoke a reaction to use as a pretext to restrict and expel Muslims from the site, explode Jerusalem and the West Bank, and expand the regional war.

“Ben Gvir holds Netanyahu hostage. Together, they’re leading Israel to self-destruction.”

There’s no authentic spirituality in such behaviour. It has no roots. No depth. No connection. It’s the product of busy minds with modern agendas, with nothing more to it than that.

Israel is so fake that Zionists artificially resurrected a dead language in order for its people to have a common “native” tongue for them to speak, so that they could all LARP as indigenous Middle Easterners together in their phony, synthetic country.

Israel has no real culture of its own — it’s all a mixture of (A) organic Jewish culture brought in from other parts of the world by the Jewish diaspora, (B) culture that was stolen from Palestinians (see “Israeli food”), and © the culture of indoctrinated genocidal hatred that is interwoven with the fabric of modern Zionism.

The way Israel has become a Mecca of electronic dance music points clearly to an aching cultural void that its people are trying desperately to fill with empty synthetic pop fluff.

Even international support for Israel is fake, manufactured astroturf that has to be enforced from the top down, because it would never organically occur to anyone that Israel is something that should be supported.

The phenomenally influential Israel lobby is used to push pro-Israel foreign policy in powerful Western governments like Washington and London. Just this week US Representative Thomas Massie told Tucker Carlson that every Republican in Congress besides himself “has an AIPAC person” assigned to them with whom they are in constant communication, who he describes as functioning “like your babysitter” with regard to lawmaking on the subject of Israel.

The Israel lobby exists with the full consent of the Western imperial war machine and its secretive intelligence cartel, because Western military support for Israel is also phony and fraudulent.

The Western empire whose strategic interests directly benefit from violence and radicalism in the Middle East pretends it is constantly expanding its military presence in the region in order to promote stability and protect an important ally, but in reality this military presence simply allows for greater control over crucial resource-rich territories whose populations would otherwise unite to form a powerful bloc acting in their own interests.

The Israel lobby is a self-funding consent manufacturer which helps the empire do what it already wants to do.

Support for Israel in the media is also phony and imposed from the top down. Since October outlets like The New York Times, CNN and CBC have been finding themselves fighting off scandals due to staff leaks about demands from their executives that they slant their Gaza coverage to benefit the information interests of Israel.

Briahna Joy Gray was just fired by The Hill for being critical of Israel as co-host of the show “Rising”, a fate that all mass media employees understand they will share if they are insufficiently supportive of the empire’s favorite ethnostate.

Israel’s support from celebrities is similarly forced. A newly leaked email from influential Hollywood marketing and branding guru Ashlee Margolis instructs her firm’s employees to “pause on working with any celebrity or influencer or tastemaker posting against Israel.”

As we discussed recently, celebrities are also naturally disincentivised from criticising any aspect of the Western empire by the fact that their status is dependent on wealthy people whose wealth is premised upon the imperial status quo.

Support for Israel on social media is likewise notoriously phony. For years Israel has been pioneering the use of social media trolls to swarm Israel’s critics and promote agendas like undermining the BDS movement.

After the beginning of the Gaza onslaught Israel spent millions on PR spin via advertising on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook, and The New York Times has just confirmed earlier reports that Israel has been targeting US lawmakers with fake social media accounts to influence their policymaking on Israel.

In truth, nobody really organically supports Israel. If they’re not supporting it because their lobbyists and employers told them to, they’re supporting it because that’s what they were told to support by the leaders of their dopey political ideologies like Zionism, liberalism and conservatism, or by the leaders of their dopey religions like Christian fundamentalism.

It’s always something that’s pushed on people from the top down, rather than arising from within themselves due to their own natural interests and ideals.

Israel is not a country, it’s like a fake movie set version of a country. A movie set where the set pieces won’t even stand up on their own, so people are always running around in a constant state of construction trying to prop things up and nail things down, and scrambling to pick up things that are falling over, and rotating the set pieces so that they look like real buildings in front of the camera.

Without this constant hustle and bustle of propagandising, lobbying, online influence ops, and nonstop mass military violence, the whole movie set would fall over, and people would see all the film crew members and actors and cameras for what they are.

Clearly, no part of this is sustainable. Clearly, something’s going to have to give. Those set pieces are going to come toppling down sooner or later; it’s just a question of when, and of how high the pile of human corpses needs to be before it happens.

Evola viewed Christianity as a degeneration of traditional Roman spirituality, seeing its adoption by the Roman Empire as a sign of decline. He criticized the “plebeian” and egalitarian aspects of Christianity, contrasting them with the aristocratic, heroic ethos of pre-Christian Rome. The 4th-century institutionalization marked, for Evola, the triumph of slave morality over the sacred imperial principle. True Roman religion, in the Evolian sense, was the solar, hierarchical cult of the Patricians, not the later exoteric forms. The authentic Roman spirit belonged to the world of Tradition, which Christianity betrayed.

“Remigration is the only ticket to make Europe European again!”

Me: “If 'remigration' is to restore Europe’s essence, then it must first purge the Semitic spiritual corruption perpetuated by Christianity—an alien creed that severed the West from its primordial roots. The bourgeois fixation on mere racial or material distinctions is a modern decadence, a distraction from the true crisis: the collapse of sacred hierarchy and duty. Rome cared not for the color of men, but for their fidelity to Order and Tradition. The modern West, adrift in nihilism, has forgotten this. Its salvation lies not in petty tribalism, but in the restoration of the Eternal against the profane.”

Title: The Eternal Against the Profane: Evola’s Indictment of Christian Decadence Tags: #Remigration #Traditionalism #Evola #SpiritualHierarchy #AntiModern #RomanTradition

  1. Christianity as Degeneration – Evola saw Christianity as a plebeian revolt against the aristocratic, solar spirituality of pre-Christian Rome, a betrayal of the sacred imperial principle.
  2. Slave Morality Triumphant – The 4th-century institutionalization of Christianity marked the victory of servile, egalitarian values over the heroic ethos of the Patrician caste.
    3.Rejection of Semitic Spirituality – The Judeo-Christian worldview severed Europe from its Indo-European roots, replacing hierarchy with exoteric moralism.
  3. The False Focus on Race – Modern racialism is a bourgeois distraction; true restoration demands a return to spiritual caste, not mere biological distinctions.
  4. Rome’s True Measure – Ancient Rome judged men by their alignment with Order and Tradition, not by blood or material status—a principle lost to modernity.
  5. The Crisis of Nihilism – The West’s decay stems from the abandonment of sacred duty, not superficial demographic shifts.
  6. Remigration as Spiritual Return – To “remigrate” is to reclaim Europe’s primordial essence, purging all egalitarian and humanitarian corruptions.
  7. Against Bourgeois Modernity – The modern world’s fixation on equality and progress is antithetical to the eternal laws of Tradition.
  8. The Solar Path – Restoration requires the reawakening of the warrior-ascetic ideal, the synthesis of action and transcendence.
  9. The Imperative of Hierarchy – Salvation lies not in mass movements, but in the resurgence of the sacred elite—those who embody the vir of Tradition.

“The modern world is a corpse animated by democratic heresies. Only the sword of Tradition can sever its head.”

Dualistic thinking only makes people numb

In Christianity, the spirit is often seen as separate from and in opposition to the material world, leading to a dualistic framework where the spiritual realm is idealized and the physical world is devalued or seen as a source of corruption. Psychology teaches how inhibitions paralyze sublimation and transform suppressed energies into seeds of disease. Analogously, this is the diagnosis of the process that led to the secularization and materialization of our tradition of action. The Christian-dualistic conception of the spirit desouled our culture of action, blocking its path upward, toward absolute spiritual realization. It erected an invisible yet stubborn barrier, forcing the forces conditioned by action to discharge solely into the material realm, resulting in a pathological oversaturation of this domain. The desecrated action, stripped of any transfiguring power, inevitably degenerated into fever and mania, becoming action for its own sake or action tied to temporal realizations. From the Reformation and Humanism onward, this process has been unstoppable.

Title: Evola's Critique of Christianity and Judaism: A Traditionalist Perspective
Tags: #Evola #Traditionalism #Christianity #Judaism #LunarReligion #SolarTradition #Metaphysics #Spirituality

  1. Christianity, from Evola's perspective, is a deviation from the primordial Tradition, embodying “lunar” and “feminine” spiritual principles.
  2. Evola contrasts these lunar aspects with the “solar” and “masculine” ideals of true Tradition, which emphasize hierarchy and transcendence.
  3. He views Judaism as similarly lunar and democratic, opposing the aristocratic spirit of ancient Indo-European civilizations.
  4. Christianity is seen as a Semitic, lunar, and positivist religion, rooted in a Jewish framework.
  5. Evola criticizes Christianity for promoting humility, equality, and salvation, which he considers antithetical to heroic and transcendent values.
  6. Both Judaism and Christianity are accused of contributing to the decline of spiritual and metaphysical traditions.
  7. Evola associates the Semitic religions with a leveling, egalitarian ethos that undermines the hierarchical order of the Traditional world.
  8. He contrasts the lunar spirituality of Semitic religions with the solar spirituality of the Indo-European tradition, which he idealizes.
  9. Evola's critique reflects his broader rejection of modernity and his call for a return to the aristocratic and heroic values of the ancient world.
  10. In summary, Evola places Christianity and Judaism within a framework of lunar spirituality, opposing them to the solar and aristocratic ethos of true Tradition.

Julius Evola's perspective on Christianity and Judaism is rooted in his critique of modernity and his adherence to Traditionalist thought. He views Christianity as a deviation from the primordial Tradition, aligning it more closely with what he sees as the “lunar” and “feminine” aspects of spirituality, which he contrasts with the “solar” and “masculine” principles of true Tradition. Evola often associates Judaism with a similar “lunar” and “democratic” character, which he believes undermines the hierarchical and aristocratic spirit of the ancient world.

From an Evolian standpoint, Christianity is seen as a Semitic, lunar, and positivist religion, emerging from a Jewish framework. It is criticized for its emphasis on humility, equality, and salvation, which Evola argues are antithetical to the heroic and transcendent ideals of the Traditional world. He regards both Judaism and Christianity as contributing to the decline of the spiritual and metaphysical values of the ancient Indo-European civilizations.

In summary, Evola's critique places Christianity within the context of a broader Semitic and lunar spirituality, which he contrasts with the solar and aristocratic ethos of the true Tradition.

Evola critiques Christianity for its dualistic framework, which separates the spirit from the material world, leading to a devaluation of the physical realm and a blockage of the path toward absolute spiritual realization. This dualism, he argues, desouled Western culture, forcing action to discharge solely into the material domain, resulting in a pathological oversaturation and degeneration of action into mere temporal or material pursuits, stripped of its transcendent potential. This process, for Evola, is at the root of the secularization and materialization of traditional spiritual values.

Metaphysical part:

Mechanical Force and Individual Power

The third European illusion is mechanical power, derived from the technical applications of profane science. This is often seen as the pride and triumph of Western civilization, yet it reflects a deeper issue tied to democratism and the universalistic claims of Western science. While the roots of this universalism can be traced to aspects of Greek intellectualism, particularly the Socratic method, it aligns more closely with the Judeo-Christian spirit, which embodies universalistic and egalitarian principles in their most concrete and overwhelming form. In contrast, Greek culture upheld an aristocratic concept of knowledge, rooted in Wisdom traditions, where true knowledge required purification and self-transformation, guided by individual initiative or traditional rites. This stands in stark opposition to the passive, faith-based approach of Judeo-Christianity, which rejects autonomous paths to spiritual experience, emphasizing instead revelation, grace, and the sinful nature of human initiative.

Modern science, deeply influenced by Christianity, operates on a dualistic presupposition: nature is seen as separate, inanimate, and external to man—a reality independent of the spiritual world. This contrasts sharply with the pagan-Aryan worldview, where nature was a living, divine entity, interconnected with human existence. The pagan conception saw the world as a living body, infused with divine and demonic forces, symbols, and meanings, as expressed in the hermetic idea of man being “a whole within the whole, composed of all the powers.” This holistic view formed the basis of traditional sacred sciences.

Christianity shattered this synthesis, creating a divide between spirit and nature. Spirit became abstract and subjective, while nature was reduced to inert matter, paving the way for modern science. The organic connection between man and nature, central to traditional rites, sacrifice, and magic, was replaced by an extrinsic, mechanical relationship, epitomized by technology and machines. This shift laid the groundwork for the mechanization of life, reflecting the impersonal and egalitarian nature of modern science.

The machine embodies the impersonal side of science, producing effects with absolute indifference to the individual. This power, belonging to all and no one, lacks true value or justice, as it does not elevate the individual but merely amplifies force. In this system, the individual is reduced to a passive entity, increasingly conditioned by external forces, losing the sense of self and individual power. Despite the ability to manipulate the world through scientific laws, man remains unchanged in his essence, still subject to natural forces like fire, time, and death.

True power lies in surpassing this dualism, restoring the pagan vision of nature as a living, interconnected reality. This requires integrating oneself with the deeper forces of nature, moving beyond phenomena to their causes, and acting with the irresistibility of superior knowledge. Such power is inseparable from Wisdom, where knowing entails being, and certainty entails power. This path demands overcoming the dualistic worldview and reviving the sapiential imagery of ancient civilizations.

Europe has created a world antithetical to the traditional one, with no possibility of reconciliation. The Semitic civilization, driven by its universalistic and egalitarian ethos, is rapidly advancing toward its logical conclusion. Those who recognize the absurdity and tragedy of this trajectory must have the courage to reject it entirely. This rejection is not a leap into the void but a return to a different system of values, knowledge, and possibilities—a revival of a holistic, integrated worldview that can emerge once the current wave of Western madness recedes.
