>The existential and psychic understanding of politics is in fact lost in many ways today. We are used to seeing politics only as a technique. But Platonism reveals a deep link between political and psychic processes. There is an urgent need today to restore such a comprehensive view of political processes; that is, to examine “existential politics.”

"The development of mythic thinking towards logical and abstract thinking, which is best seen in the Greeks, is at the same time a constant dying away, not of faith, but of imagination, of the freely creating power of imagination. To the extent that it dies off, abstract thought is able to detach itself and set itself free. Now it lifts its wings to the high and free flight in which it gains autonomy. It flies over Pindar's nomos basileus and establishes laws for itself. Now the free thinker, free thought, enters the scene, and by manifesting in itself, by acting, all knowledge becomes anthropology, becomes anthropological in the sense that the Greeks understood it. Free thought detaches itself from the basis on which it originated. It separates itself from it, yet remains bound to it to the end and even soars above it – for this separateness and this free hovering constitute the history of free thought. In the struggle which philosophy wages against myth, waged by the Ionian thinkers, the Eleatics, the Sophists and all the rest, there is at the same time the recognition that it is impossible to do without it. The thinker makes use of it, if only to distance himself from it. That is why the argument does not end. It only ends when the myth-making spirit is extinguished, and with it Greek philosophy also ends. The two belong together. It is in Platonic philosophy that this dispute is clearest."
~ Friedrich Georg Jünger, The Titans

My latest video. A reading from The Titans by Friedrich Georg Jünger:

"The Titans are not the Gods, even though they generate the Gods and relish divine reverence in the kingdom of Zeus. The world in which the Titans rule is a world without the Gods. Whoever desires to imagine a kosmos atheos, i.e., a godless cosmos, that is, a cosmos not as such as depicted by natural sciences, will find it there. The Titans and the Gods differ, and, given that their differences are visible in their behavior to-ward man and in view of the fact that man himself experiences on his own as to how they rule, man, by virtue of his own experience, is able to make a distinction between them."

“If Christian mysticism and its goal, ecstasy, is the contact of man with god through a leap from human nature to divine nature, national mysticism is nothing other than the contact of man and crowds with the soul of their race through the leap which these forces make from the world of personal and material interests into the outer world of race. Not through the mind, since this anyone can do, but by living with their soul.”

It is only the creation of an aristocratic elite, whose souls are oriented towards God, which can lead a race to become more than a body of bodies.

Do you feel it?

‘To leave the parameters of Tradition meant to leave the true life. To abandon the rites, alter or violate the laws or mix the castes corresponded to regression from a structured universe (cosmos) back into chaos, or to relapse to the state of being under the power of the elements and of the totems—to take the “path leading to the hells” where death is the ultimate reality and where a destiny of contingency and of dissolution is the supreme rule.’

— Julius Evola | Revolt Against the Modern World (1934).

"The 'royal' initiatory tradition, in its pure forms, can be considered the most direct and legitimate link to the unique, primordial Tradition. In more recent times, it appears to us in its heroic variants, that is, as a realization and reconquest conditioned by analogous virile qualities suitable, on the plane of the spirit, to the warrior. But, on the other hand, there is the sacerdotal position in the narrow sense, with different qualities from the first, and at times opposite to it. This is especially so when, brought to the profane in its theistic-devotional forms, it confronts what we referred to above as the 'heroic' variations of the royal tradition. From the point of what we symbolize as the original 'divine royalty,' this second tradition now appears as something crumbling to pieces, the blame for which must be attributed to the sentimental, emotional, theistic-devotional and mystical elements—especially in the West—who are constantly gaining ground in their attempt to keep its esoteric elements in almost total darkness.

It is no accident that the hermetico-alchemical tradition should call itself the Royal Art, and that it chose Gold as a central royal and solar symbol, which at the same time takes us back to the primordial Tradition. Such a tradition presents itself to us essentially as the guardian of a light and a dignity that cannot be reduced to the religious-sacerdotal vision of the world. And if there is no talk in this tradition (as in a cycle of other myths) of discovering gold, but only of making it, that only goes to show how important, in the already indicated sense of reconquest and reconstruction, the heroic moment had become."

- Julius Evola, The Hermetic Tradition

"War is therefore divine in itself, since it is a law of the world.

War is divine through its consequences of a supernatural nature, which are as much general as particular, consequences little known because little studied, but which are nevertheless incontestable. Who could doubt the great privileges to be found in death in battle? Who could believe that the victims of this dreadful sentence have shed their blood in vain? However this is not the time to insist on matters of this kind; our century is not yet mature enough to occupy itself with these matters. Let it keep to its physics, but we must nevertheless keep our eyes fixed on the invisible world that will explain everything." - Joseph de Maistre, St. Petersburg Dialogues

The mass media, with their cult of celebrity and their attempt to surrond it with glamour and excitement, have made Americans a nation of fans and moviegoers. The media give substance to and thus intensify narcissistic dreams of fame and glory, encourage the common man to identify himself with the stars and to hate the "herd" and make it more and more difficult for him to accept the banality of everyday existence.


- Christopher Lasch

In addition, this has conditioned the American to become accustomed to constant entertainment. To the American this has become a need as necessary to be fulfilled as if it were eating and sleeping. This has had a disastrous effect on the culture by promoting a lifestyle of passive enjoyment, as if life were a show that must remain enjoyable to continue to be watched. The effect of this addiction to entertainment, combined with the foresaking of normal everyday life, has created a population so addicted to merely being amused that the greatest thing to which an American aspires is to sit on a couch and observe other manufactured people living manufactured lives.

This complete denial of real Life represents the foremost obstacle to utilizing or 'waking up' Americans. Even dissident or openly Right Americans don't think twice about wasting time watching their preferred personalities say the same things over and over again—nothing of substance either, but only entertainment.

To those who complain about a lack of action, what are you doing against the spiritual American who only wants to sit and be entertained, who aspires to be a nothing more than part of a crowd in a theater, and who expects nothing more from life than a simple plot, a few jokes, and flashy production?

Schwerpunkt discusses the impact and legacy of the Hunnic invasions, which are woefully overlooked by modern historians. So terrifying were the Huns coming from the steppes that the Germanic peoples fled in fear, causing not only the fall of the Western Roman Empire but also putting into motion the Anglo-Saxon invasions of Britain and the far-reaching raids of the Vandals and Goths. So powerful was their impact that it radically altered the makeup of Central and Eastern Europe, leaving a vacuum for the growing Slavic peoples but also paving the way for the other steppe peoples to invade, including the Alans, Avars, Bulgars, and Magyars. So lasting is their legacy that many Eastern Europeans still hold them as part of their history and additionally, as Schwerpunkt mentions, until recently many of the more western Europeans even considered Germans to be 'not white' based on their association with the Hunnic peoples. But as Herr Punkt also brings up, the invading Steppe culture was not really all that foreign to the Roman and the German. Perhaps it even reinvigorated the Uranic spirit in Europe: that old Aryan progenitor spirit that unites the Roman, German, Celt, Slav, and Hun.
