"Ignorance is not bliss; it is the breeding ground for tyranny and oppression. Ignorance allows manipulation, control, and the violation of natural law principles to persist unchecked. It is through knowledge and understanding that we can liberate ourselves from the chains of ignorance and reclaim our personal sovereignty. Ignorance blinds us to the true nature of reality and prevents us from recognizing the mechanisms of oppression and the erosion of our freedoms. By seeking knowledge, questioning assumptions, and being open to new information, we can break free from the shackles of ignorance and actively participate in creating a more enlightened and free society.”

“Our word nature is cognate to our word natal. From Latin natus (something “born”), nature implies birth, growth, change, flux—above all, life. To look upon nature is to see something alive. To think of the natural (as opposed to the supernatural) as “dead” has it exactly backwards, as we shall see. Opponents of naturalism think that if reality is exhausted by the natural, this means atheism and modernity. But this makes no sense, because that is exactly how ancient peoples saw it. All nature is alive. There are spirits in every tree, every field, in the upper air, in the depths of the earth, behind the hearth, above the doorway, and everywhere else you look, without exception. Nature is full of gods. We have absolutely no reason to think that our ancient forebears had need of some other realm in which to banish divinity from the world.”

The Outsider's Insight: Colin Wilson's Legacy

Born today, June 26th, Colin Wilson (26 June 1931 - 5 December 2013) was an English existentialist philosopher and novelist. Over his prolific career, Wilson authored more than 100 books, both fiction and non-fiction, covering a vast array of subjects including philosophy, mysticism, and the paranormal. He also penned numerous biographies and memoirs. Wilson gained early fame with his 1956 book, "The Outsider," which delves into themes of alienation as explored by various philosophers and artists.

Wilson had a deep understanding of Gnosticism, frequently writing for and giving interviews to "The Gnostic" journal, which focuses on Western esotericism and spirituality. His work often reflected Gnostic ideas, particularly in his acclaimed 1967 science fiction horror novel, "The Mind Parasites." The noscript itself alludes to the Archons of Gnostic lore.

Here is an excerpt from "The Mind Parasites”:

“Now I suspect that these mind vampires specialise in finding races who have almost reached this point of evolution, who are on the brink of achieving a new power, and then feeding on them until they have destroyed them. It is not their actual intention to destroy because once they have done this, they are forced to seek another host. Their intention is to feed for as long as possible on the tremendous energies generated by the evolutionary struggle. Their purpose, therefore, is to prevent man from discovering the worlds inside himself, to keep his attention directed outwards. I think there can be no possible doubt that the wars of the twentieth century are a deliberate contrivance of these vampires…

I have another theory, which is so absurd that I hardly dare to mention it. This is that the mind vampires are, without intending it, the instruments of some higher force. They may, of course, succeed in destroying any race that becomes their host. But if, by any chance, the race should become aware of the danger, the result is bound to be the exact opposite of what is intended. One of the chief obstacles to human evolution is man's boredom and ignorance, his tendency to drift and allow tomorrow to take care of itself. In a certain sense, this is perhaps a greater danger to evolution - or at least, a hindrance - than the vampires themselves. Once a race becomes aware of these vampires, the battle is already half won. Once man has a purpose and a belief, he is almost invincible. The vampires might serve, therefore, to inoculate man against his own indifference and laziness. However, this is no more than a casual speculation…”

“I can categorically state beyond a shadow of a doubt that Julian Assange and Wikileaks is a complete and utter piece of theatre put out there. It is ‘QAnon and the white hats’ for Guardian readers and normies…

I know Julian Assange is an actor is because if he was real he would have been vaporised years ago. He is the Emmanuel Goldstein of the current world to give you hope and believe that somehow out there are good guys on the inside…Wikileaks what did it achieve? Nothing, no prosecutions, no trials, no arrests.

Julian Assange is a crisis actor; Wikileaks was a lie, the same lie they've been given us for 2,000 years since Constantine implemented the Edict of Milan. You’re still waiting for redeemers, you're still waiting for saviours; because they know that as long as you're waiting for the next Revelation you won't do anything yourself.”

“the world has become full of the ideas of the Messiah, the ideas of the Torah and the ideas of the commandments, so that these have spread to faraway islands and to many dim hearted nations, and they now discuss these ideas and the commandments of the Torah.”
—Mosheh ben Maimon (Maimonides), Hayad Hachazaka

Notes: Moses Maimonides aka Ramban, a 12th-century scholar and philosopher, is considered a foundational figure in modern Jewish law and a leading authority on Jewish philosophy. In his legal work 'Hayad Hachazaka,' he acknowledges Christianity and Islam as necessary preparations for the Messiah, promoting the worship of one God, and moving gentiles away from their ancestral gods, priming them to accept Noahidism.

Maimonides notes that Christians and Muslims, by accepting the Torah's authenticity validates Jewish fables and myths as genuine history. This belief in the Torah also affirms their prophetic powers and their unique relationship with the one God.

“Money, being naturally barren, to make it breed money is preposterous and a perversion from the end of its institution, which was only to serve the purpose of exchange and not of increase... Men called bankers we shall hate, for they enrich themselves while doing nothing.”

“There are two totally different orders of mythology. There is the mythology that relates you to your nature and to the natural world, of which you're a part. Then, there is the mythology that is strictly sociological, linking you to a particular society. You are not simply a natural human being; you are a member of a particular group…

Now, the biblical tradition is a socially oriented mythology. Nature is condemned. In the nineteenth century, scholars thought of mythology and ritual as an attempt to control nature. But that is magic, not mythology or religion. Nature religions are not attempts to control nature but to help you put yourself in accord with it. However, when nature is thought of as evil, you don't put yourself in accord with it; you control it, or try to, and hence the tension, the anxiety, the cutting down of forests, and the annihilation of native people. This perspective accentuates the separation from nature.”
―Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth

"For the old European world, the forest was the birthplace of myth, a vast and mysterious realm where the boundaries between the human and the supernatural blurred. It was in the depths of these ancient woods that stories of gods, heroes, and mythical creatures were born, woven into the fabric of cultural memory.”
―Yvonne Verdier, The Forest of Stories

Notes: Yvonne Verdier (1941-1989) was a renowned French ethnologist, sociologist, and anthropologist. Her work primarily focused on rural communities in France, examining their traditions, daily life, and cultural practices through a detailed ethnographic lens. Her research often delved into how myth and cultural practices were deeply intertwined with the natural environment.

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.”

“Whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together.”

“The Sunday School narrative of a church of martyrs, of Christians huddled in catacombs out of fear, meeting in secret to avoid arrest, and mercilessly thrown to lions merely for their religious beliefs is a macabre fairy tale. When Christians appeared in Roman courtrooms, they were not tried as heretics, blasphemers, or even fools. Christians had a reputation for being socially reclusive, refusing to join the military, and refusing to swear oaths…

A close look at the evidence shows that Christians were never the victims of sustained, targeted persecution. Even the so-called great persecutions under the emperors Decius and Diocletian have been vastly exaggerated in our Christian sources. In general, when Christians were executed, it was for activities that were authentically politically and socially subversive.”

“Dictatorship naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme liberty.”
— Plato, The Republic

Notes: We are often told by our leaders, ‘intellectuals’, and the media that democracy is the pinnacle of civilisation, with liberal democracy being the apex, as Francis Fukuyama famously declared it 'the end of history'. This belief asserts that liberal democracy should be spread globally by its champions.

However, from a traditionalist and cyclical perspective, democracy marks the beginning of a decline, ultimately leading to dictatorship and tyranny. Julius Evola’s traditionalist view sees liberalism as a step in this decline, progressing from democracy to socialism, radicalism, and finally to Communism and Bolshevism. Each stage prepares for the next, driven by the same underlying malevolent force.

“That all superstition of pagans and heathens should be annihilated is what God wants, God commands, God proclaims!”
— Saint Augustine

Notes: The story of Christianity's rise in Ancient Rome is often told in secular terms: weakened emperors, barbarian invasions, heavy taxation, plagues, and a weary populace. Religion, when mentioned, is seen as a psychological comfort in an age marked by disease, war, famine, and death. Conventional narratives argue that in such times, people sought reassurance and were drawn to Christianity, which promised hope in this life or the next.

However, this was more than a sociopolitical shift; it was viewed as a spiritual war between good and evil, God and Satan. Modern historians may overlook these demonologies, but they deeply influenced early Christian thinkers like Augustine. Demons stalk the pages of his book, “The City of God” of which it’s full forgotten noscript was "The City of God Against the Pagans.”

Christianity may have been adopted by the Roman ruling class to centralise power and control the populace by creating a docile and slave like population. With Rome's increasing diversity, a universalist religion, rather than prior ethnic religions, was more suitable for the rulers to impose. Passages like “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God’s” (Matthew 22:21) and “Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established” (Romans 13:1) encouraged obedience and tax compliance.

The Roman rulers, taken in by the Trojan horse of Christianity, likely had no conception of its true long-term purpose: to act as prophecy fulfilment of the Old Testament, destroying the ancestral and indigenous tradition and worship of the Old Gods, bringing the gentiles under the yoke of the God of Israel. Christianity constituted a form of theological and spiritual warfare, as those who injected this archontic plague into populations understood the Hermetic maxim of ‘As Above, So Below’. Thus, if the gentiles were conquered in the heavens by the destruction of their native Gods (as above), they could thereby be more easily conquered on earth (so below).

“There is no point in indulging in wishful thinking with the illusions of any kind of optimism: today we find ourselves at the end of a cycle. Already for centuries, at first insensibly, then with the momentum of a landslide, multiple processes have destroyed every normal and legitimate human order in the West and falsified every higher conception of living, acting, knowing, and fighting.

The momentum of this fall, its velocity, its giddiness, has been called ‘progress’. We have raised hymns to ‘progress’ and deluded ourselves that this civilisation—a civilisation of matter and machines—was civilisation par excellence, the one for which the entire history of the world was preordained. The final consequences of this entire process have been such as to cause some people, at least, to wake up.”

Check out Tucker Carlson's latest advert. Buy one Christianity and get the Noahide for free.

Counteracting this shit is one of the main reasons The Fyrgen exists. In recent years, the evil in this world unmasked itself, so it's understandable that good-hearted people would seek refuge. Because of how Westerners are raised, 'Christ' is often the first safe-haven that comes to mind. I (and others) came to tell you that the only true refuge is in your organic, ancestral ways. Read: NOT Judeo-Christianity.

Have you noticed how many Pied Pipers (Carlson, Peterson, Brand etc) have switched to Christianity and are now promoting the Hebraic Noahide Laws? It's not random. Stay frosty.

“A crowd thinks in images, and the image itself calls up a series of other images, having no logical connection with the first. A crowd scarcely distinguishes between the subjective and the objective. It accepts as real the images invoked in its mind, though they most often have only a very distant relation with the observed facts. Crowds being only capable of thinking in images are only to be impressed by images.”
―Gustave Le Bon, The Crowd

“It is a habit of tyrants never to like anyone who has a spirit of dignity and independence. The tyrant claims a monopoly of such qualities for himself; he feels that anybody who asserts a rival dignity, or acts with independence, is threatening his own superiority and the despotic power of his tyranny; he hates him accordingly as a subverter of his own authority. It is also a habit of tyrants to prefer the company of aliens to that of citizens at table and in society; citizens, they feel, are enemies, but aliens will offer no opposition.”

“It cannot be overstated. Bolshevism committed the greatest human slaughter of all time. The fact that most of the world is ignorant and uncaring about this enormous crime is proof that the global media is in the hands of the perpetrators."
―Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Notes: Nobel Prize-winning author and philosopher Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is finally gaining the recognition he deserves in the West. Yet, his final book before his death, "200 Years Together" (published in 2001), remains conspicuously absent from English-language shelves and is yet to be translated into English despite its bestseller status in Russia. In a now famous clip, Dr. Jordan Peterson, known by his fans for his articulate defences of free speech and intellectual rigour, crumbled when questioned about Solzhenitsyn's last work, simply stating, "I can't do it.”

“Apart from the massacres, deaths, and famines for which communism was responsible, the worst aspect of the system was the official lying—that is to say, the lying in which everyone was forced to take part, whether by repetition, assent, or failure to contradict.

I came to the conclusion that the purpose of propaganda in communist countries was not to persuade, much less to inform, but to humiliate and emasculate. In this sense, the less true it was, the less it corresponded in any way to reality, the better. The more it contradicted the experience of the persons to whom it was directed, the more docile, self-despising, and impotent they became for their failure to protest.”

“The totalitarian regimes throughout history have demonstrated that the courts and judiciary systems can be manipulated and repurposed as instruments of ideological control. These institutions, traditionally seen as impartial arbiters of justice, can be co-opted to serve the goals of thought control and oppression. By subverting the rule of law, totalitarian regimes transform these once-esteemed pillars of democracy into mechanisms for enforcing conformity and suppressing dissent. Through legal frameworks and judicial decisions, they not only dictate public behaviour but also shape and constrain the very way people think, thereby maintaining their grip on power. In this way, the judiciary becomes a powerful tool for menticide—systematically eroding individual autonomy and independent thought—and brainwashing, as it perpetuates the regime’s ideology and stifles critical inquiry.”
