“The greatest danger in the modern world is the attack on man as the image of God. That God became man in order to unite man to God is the only sure Divine underwriting of human worth."

~Archbishop Dmitri of Dallas

"Dominique de Roux sent me a copy of A Visit to Godenholm. I have read it three times and each time I read it I find new beauty. The very noscript perhaps seems to say, if I am not mistaken, the house of the Gods or the roof of the Gods, and, in effect, is about the last initiation, that of death, suggested or sensed from the very first page…."
~ Letter to Ernst Jünger from Vintila Horia, February 7, 1970

The caveat here is that the opposite scenario—when man became god, as Heracles did—is just the same attacked by modernity to its own grave peril. The danger in either case is the forgetting of a man's duty to fulfill his true divine nature.

The proper understanding is that the two are not actually opposite scenarios but the same event told from two perspectives.

On The Spiritual Problem of Great Replacement Theory. (rant)

What everyone seems to be ignoring is the spiritual side to the power dynamics of Great Replacement Theory. By that we do not necessarily mean that people ignore the frankly benign question of who is actually "behind it all", but rather the subtle reasons as to why it is even happening in the first place.

This is going to be wildly unpopular, because we are essentially going to say that if the white races are being replaced, then that is a problem for the white races to overcome, and nothing less.

Whites are on the whole today spiritually empty, hedonistically inclined, they are materialistic, ego-centric, nihilistic weaklings. If we are going to accept the fact of white replacement by the Yellow and Black races, then we must start by admitting that Whites are weak and degenerate, because surely if we are strong and healthy we would not be facing the onslought of racial squalour and spiritual degeneration, we would not be on a slow grind towards total replacement.

We are going to be engaging in racist victim blaming here, since our claim is essentially that, if you are being victimized, then this is squarely and solely the result of your own actions, you are a human being, and if you have even a shred of dignity then you should never for once pretend that your position of victimhood is anything other than what you yourself wished and desired for yourself.

God helps those who help themselves.

Whites being replaced is solely the responsibility of Whites. Although apparently Whites are being replaced by Asiatic and African races, as well as spiritually, culturally, and even politically degenerated by the Levantine-Semitic race, the reality is that none of this would be happening if the White races did not allow them to occur. The current state of things is in other words no ones but your own to put into order again.

This hints at the centrality of the racial position. An ethnostate is worthless if it is compromised of "ethnically pure" trailerpark degenerate trash, but priceless if it is governed by God.

To furthermore clarify the point; the Great Replacement is, like all positions of victimhood, the responsibility of the victim. If a woman is raped, this is the responsibility of her brothers and her man. Not only did you allow yourself to become the victim, you actively wished to be one, no matter what you might tell yourself.

This is the inconvenient truth that racist Europeans don't want to admit. It is not an Islamic conquest of Europe that is happening, or an Arab or African or any racial one at all. It is a swelling of the dark unnamed masses from the South, a march of unthinking zombies from the underworld. Their spirit is the same that has already taken hold of Europe. Daemonic, borne only of the earth, blind to all Heaven, and animalistically violent in their ignorance. They are essentially an anti-race, and that is why those who have abandoned their own peoples and homelands are flocking to the crumbling ruins of those who have also given up on their races and disgraced their homelands.

If the European had not turned his back on God, the godless masses would not think of themselves as welcome—would not be welcomed. If he had not declared himself king of the animals and nothing more, the animals would not have come to be with their own. And what a lowly thing that is for such a lowly form of hubris, to aspire to rule over an empire of beasts.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust; if all one is is an animal sprung from the dirt, then dirt is what one will become. When divine origins are forgotten, when race and home and life itself have been desacralized, the only result can be death.

Race is not enough to survive, one has to have a spiritual elevation and protection for this spirit. The problem with modern nationalism and the many forms of right-wing on the Internet is that they sacrifice their spirits for DNA. Nationalism sells one's soul to preserve one's survival. Most modern right-wing philosophy is identical to that of Dr. Faust, and for this reason most modern Right-wingers are completely modernists; And they are, as Spengler said: "der Faustische Mensch", the Faustian man.

‘Monotheism’, if one can employ this word to translate 𝘵𝘢𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘥, although it somewhat limits its meaning by making one think inevitably of an exclusively religious point of view, has an essentially ‘solar’ character. This is nowhere more ‘perceptible’ than in the desert, where the diversity of things is reduced to a minimum and where at the same time mirages make evident all that is illusory in the manifest world. There, the solar radiation produces things and destroys them in turn; or rather, for it is inexact to say that it destroys them, it transforms them and reabsorbs them after having manifested them.

- Guenon

"Once the combination of corporeal and spiritual has been understood as it must be understood—that is, not as two principle parts (though one of them is called spiritual) of a theoretical cosmos exterior to consciousness, but as a living process provided by real experience— we come to another fundamental hermetic teaching: that of immanence, the presence of the 'marvelous thing' in man, the 'living chaos' in which all possibilities reside. The hermetic texts continually refer to this immanence in the same terms, passing from a cosmico-natural meaning to an inner human meaning.

The Emerald Tablet's 'Telesma, Father of all things' is complemented by the redoubtable revelation of the Corpus Hermeticum: 'Thou art all in all, composed of all powers.' Morienus, in answer to King Kalid, explains: 'Oh, King, I will confess the truth to you. God, for his pleasure, created in you this most wonderful thing, and wherever you go, it will be in you, and you will not be rid of it. . . . You are its mine and storehouse, for it is in you, and to tell the truth, you yourself are the one who receives it and gathers it in. And whoever seeks any other stone in the Teaching will be deceived in his labor.' Ostanes, in the Arab text of Kitab el-Foçul, says the same: 'There is nothing in the world as common as this mysterious thing: it is found in rich and poor, accompanies the traveller and stays with one at home.' And he adds: 'By God! If it were called by its true name, the ignorant would shout: "Lie!" and the intelligent would be perplexed.' Moreover: 'The stone speaks but ye heed it not. It calls to you and ye answer not. O ye sleepers! What deafness stops your ears? What vise grips your heart?' The Cosmopolite says: 'What you're looking for is in front of your eyes; no one can live without it, all creatures serve it, but few even notice it; and everyone has it in his power.' And in the Seven Chapters of Hermes: 'I have come to tell ye what ye do not know: the Work is with you and within you: once ye find it in yourselves, where it continuously resides, you will possess it forever right there where ye stand.'"

- Julius Evola, The Hermetic Tradition

"The life of a national people is sharply delineated by its boundaries, sacred rivers, formidable mountains, and boundless seas, and is thus fixed in space. It is based on tradition, oriented towards a distant future and thus fixed in time. Woe to him who cuts off his own roots, he becomes a worthless human being, a parasite. To deny the past is to deny the future and disappear with the fleeting waves of the present.

But for the national man there is just as great a danger, and that is that he forgets the present. To have a tradition is to have an obligation to live up to it. A nation is not a house in which each generation, like a generation of coral, must only lay a new floor, or in which it must exist, bad and good, only in a space defined once and for all. A castle, a solid bourgeois house that, once built, seems to stand forever. But soon a new generation, driven by new needs, sees the need for a major change. Either it burns down or it collapses, and a renovated, renewed building rises on the old foundations. The facades change, every stone is replaced, but it is still the same house, in a very special sense – as far as the genealogy is concerned. So was it just a perfect Renaissance or Baroque house, did it have a design language applicable to all times? No, but what it was then is also somehow hidden in what it is today."

'Men are tired to disgust of money-economy. They hope for salvation from somewhere or other, for some real thing of honor and chivalry, of inward nobility, of unselfishness and duty.'
