0 PHYSIS / THE FOOL

The "I" who is the individual human being can learn and practice the art of making mental and emotional space (psychic sinister space), in a situation in which he finds himself. It would appear self-evident today, that our disturbed world still religiously imbued, needs to be ministered to by strong mind and will and not by mus-cle alone, whether it be the musmus-cles of an individual’s arm or that of an army’s armaments. It needs to be ministered to by dark men as creatures of clear but black thought and sinister emotion and not merely, or even chiefly by men and creatures of hard fist and cold steel. Mind and fist alike are necessary for the better and the worse in this convulsive period of history.

The individual mind has to be trained as such that every Satanist may really deserve the name of "the Black Knight of the Night". This is truly my

"night vision", the walk on dark and difficult country roads how large and strange it may be, where small and ultimate details are not visible, only dark shapes within darkness. In this is found the looming shapes of hypocritical society, nations and peoples, religious corruption having led to abandoned values. Failing to see the situation as it is - is failing towards our Satanic call.

To map out what we can do, and what the Satanist as a sinister creative entity has al-ways done, we need to take account of two facts:

1. The fact that the Satanist is a sinister stimulus at large in his environ-ment. His words and acting are, in effect, to speak and act sinisterly.

2. The fact that each Satanist possesses some area of influence, peculiarly of his own. His total personality structure must operate as a sustained evil force in the life of others.

To say, "It doesn’t matter what I do", as long as it is evil, is absolutely wrong. Our evil intentions must be organised. It is deeply important, then, that we find out as best we can what is true about ourselves on the Sinister Path. It is deeply tragic when we get a completely wrong slant about ourselves, and distort the sinister "I" like pseudo-Satanists do in the process of stirring "chaos" unmindfully in order to speed up that which they have not the slightest idea about. In our effort we, traditional Satanists, are endeavouring a higher civilisation to come, imbued with the energies of the New Aeon. This means, our present must change or be changed.

There is only one passion that satisfies the Satanist’s hunger in his warfare against the present world’s attitude is, in the observance of dark integrity and sinister individual-ity: "hatred". To reach this end, the mind has to be trained. Sects as "Scientology"

also present in Europe know very well how to train the mind at the expense of the vic-tim: brainwashing. Although we condemn religions and sects deriving from them, there is something in "brainwashing", although we would not use the word. The mind has simply to be trained.

Ga Wath Am, “the Power within me” is great, is the pathway between the Sun and planet Mercury, and they are one. While through Mercury the mind is sinisterly ac-tive, filled with Dark illumination, the relation is established between the personality and the ego, the influence of the Sun is either Dark life-giving or death giving lumi-nary. The mystery of the Sun is the grandest of all the innumerable mysteries of sinis-ter occultism. It used to be called, the “evil eye of the ritualistic Jupisinis-ter.” The rays of the Sun are made parallel to the six planets of the Tree of Wyrd.

When the Sun throbs with sinister energy, and its contents thrills under the sinister impulse, then the currents spread and circulate, while evil manifestation becomes real-ity: the sinister man or woman is born. The Tree of Wyrd consists of the Sun as the central focal point, with its attendant planets, which are held in magnetic rapport in their orbits around that Sun.

Ga Wath Am is in fact related to two triangles all connected with the Sun, melting together as it were two triangles:

(a) Sun, Mars, Mercury.

(b) Sun, Mercury, Venus.

The two triangles constitute one great triangle, with the Ga Wath Am as pathway be-tween Mercury and the Sun. The Sun, as a dictum says in France, “le démon du midi”

(the demon of the South). The Sun is not only the heart of the Tree of Wyrd, but is a ruling factor in the Cosmos, to begin with the personal psyche, everything responding to the Sun’s influences. The Sinister man is also motivating its activity, and condi-tioned by its dark energies.

The Sun has a threefold working on the Sinister Man.

(1) The Sun stimulates the bodily cells and sustains man, affecting all the cen-tres of his constitution.

(2) The Sun gives the Sinister Man the needed energy.

(3) The Sun, the Sinister consciousness, bring him to the awareness that he is another God and Satan alike. The Sun is the great dark illuminator of the Sinister Man, and the Sinister Self of personal psyche.

The Sun is in fact too much the undiscovered planet. In the study of the Science of Triangles, the Satanist must bear in mind, that there is always one point of the triangle which, in a particular crisis or “event in consciousness”, is present the emanating, dy-namic energy where the Sun is the main expression.

Ga Wath Am is here the completion of two triangles, the building up of the bridge between two triangles by the initiate. It is the transmission of evil forces on Earth from the two triangles, with its two-fold consequences:

(1) Emanating, sinister evocative and magnetic energies.

(2) Two flows of evil energies, embodying the energies of both triangles.

As the Satanist progresses towards the heart of this mystery he awakens to a realisa-tion that the aim of the sinister for him is to build consciously the channel between the three functions which are to him the planes of the ideal, whereon he normally per-forms, literally the "Sinister Path".

He builds it:

1. By means of the mind principal consciously applied.

2. Through the method of dominating the personality, with full value of the Self.

3. Through the expansion of his consciousness through dark graded steps until it includes the sinister he seeks to reach, and thereby demonstrat-ing evil as in order to tread the Sinister Path, he must become the Path itself.

Mars in relation to the mind (Mercury) is closely related to sex (Venus), who is an aspect of the pairs of opposites, and its effect is also definitely the vitalising and sacri-ficial blood. The activity of Mars is potent to arose the entire sinister nature, and bring about its final rebellion, the active fight. The colour assigned to Mars is obviously red corresponding to blood therefore the association of Mars with passion to destroy, an-ger and the sense of general opposition. Mars is the serpent of evil and of wisdom alike. Mars and the blood produce the resultant conflict between life and death.

As the Satanist has always worked with the energies of Mars, it is interesting to note that Mars has always ruled the Abrahamic Faiths (Judaism, Christianity and Islam).

They are religions that have waged cruel and oft illogical war sex and its implications, militant celibacy in Catholicism, the inviolable nature of marriage (except Islam), etc.

Mars has ruled these religions because the apostle Paul misinterpreted the esoteric significance of the New Testament for like all truths, had to pass through the filter of his own personality mind and brain. It was then unavoidably given a personal slant and twist and this is responsible for the sorrowful historical story of Christianity and

Islam. Saul, Paul through conversion, and as a warrior himself, kept his philosophy alive until this very day. (The books of the Bible have never meant to be one infallible book. Only the Councils of Hippo Regius, 393, and Carthage 397, claimed that these books were canonical and therefore inspired.)
