Some passages and quotes from Hans F.K. Günther in his book The Religious Attitudes of the Indo-Europeans reminded me of what we said on March 21 about the impossibility of ‘denazifying the Gods’: what today’s crazy Westerners want most, their new religion:
Si fractus illabatur orbis,
impavidum ferient ruinae.
Translation:
If the world were broken,
fearless fall will strike.
What will happen to the West in the coming years reminds me of the Tarot card The Tower which symbolizes punishment for the proud. Günther adds a passage from Geibel’s Brünhilde:
If there’s anything more powerful than fate,
Then it’s courage, which bears fate unshaken.
And this reminds me, naturally, of the first chapter of Savitri’s Memoirs: ‘The Religion of the Strong’, that is, National Socialism.
The trick for us priests is knowing how to wait for the lightning bolt to strike the Tower of Pride so that we can be the providers of the story of the next Era.
One reply on “Tower”
Indo-European/Nordic religiosity is inherently uplifting while Judeo-Christian/Oriental religiosity is demoralizing.
Judeo-Christianity presents all people as slaves to an all-powerful God who will eventually destroy the world and bring upon judgement to all people who will be deemed either “good” or “bad” based on how loyal people to to this God.
Even in modern science there is Judeo-Christian religiosity. The Big Bang cosmological model, which is widely accepted among modern scientists, states that the Universe is expanding and will keep expanding until entropy runs out which will result in the Heat Death of the Universe marking the ultimate end to all existence so nothing matters but one’s individual happiness or proving loyalty to God until that time comes.
But with Nordic religiosity, people are not slaves to an all-powerful God; instead the Gods are spiritual advisors and companions to people who all have their time, place and office within the world which is a timeless order which goes through an endless cycle of world beginnings and endings while maintaining the same order and laws of the Universe. The most powerful thing within this religiosity is fate which affects both Gods and men. For men especially this compels serious self-reflection and self-improvement in order for them to have the best fate/outcomes in life.
