hermeticism

Subjugation of the psyche and immersion in the chthonic-subterranean world.

The domination of the psyche and descent into the chthonic-subterranean realm. The method of controlling someone involves forcing them into regression by overwhelming them with a shocking revelation, plunging them into an altered state of consciousness. As for example:

“Russian President Vladimir Putin is no stranger to showcasing his physical fitness—whether riding horseback shirtless or hauling in a fish with his bare hands. But as the 65-year-old leader campaigns for his fourth presidential term, many wonder: What’s the source of his seemingly boundless stamina? According to reports, one of his supposed secrets lies in an ancient and controversial remedy—deer antler blood.

Russian media claims that Putin, like many others in the country, has consumed and even bathed in the blood of freshly severed Siberian red deer antlers. Proponents believe the practice enhances strength and slows aging, though it has drawn sharp criticism from animal rights activists and scientists alike. Beyond the ritual itself, a booming industry has sprung up around antler-based products—despite a lack of credible evidence supporting their benefits. A Brutal Harvest

The process of extracting antler blood is not for the faint of heart. Each year, deer are restrained as farmers saw off their antlers—a practice that repeats up to 15 times over an animal’s lifetime. Some Tv channel visited one such farm in the Altai Mountains, where manager Ludmila Korotkhih defended the tradition, calling it a natural supplement rather than a drug.

“It strengthens the immune system, revitalizes the body, and even boosts male libido,” she claimed.

Farmworkers insist the procedure is painless, arguing that antlers regrow annually. Yet skeptics question both the ethics and science behind the practice.”

Metaphysical part:

“What one gains, another must lose. For every step forward taken by one, others are pushed back—such is the immutable balance. Every rise of the sacred demands a fall into the profane.” As long as you remain ignorant of your body and its reactions, you are the profane.

But if you choose not to master this knowledge fully, you become one who exploits another—someone even more profane than yourself. Thus, you realize the law of subjugation governs all, until you see that this game of domination is an illusion where all are ultimately deceived. We return then to the first hermetic law: knowledge alone is sovereign, and the illusion of another’s superiority is void.

  1. Chthonic Descent: Forced regression through shock, plunging the psyche into subterranean depths.
  2. Ignorance as Bondage: Unawareness of bodily reactions renders one profane—a slave to base forces.
  3. Exploiter’s Paradox: Half-knowledge transforms the seeker into a profane oppressor.
  4. Universal Subjugation: The law of domination governs all until its illusory nature is unveiled.
  5. Hierarchy of Deception: Both dominator and dominated are ensnared—the game itself is the trap.
  6. Eternal Return: The path ends where it began: knowledge alone is liberation.
    “The superior is he who knows the game is rigged—yet plays no part in it.”

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.

Metaphysical part:

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.
