...destroy unthinkingly accepted nature

Dante and Beatrice before the Light, from an Illuminated copy of The Divine Comedy, illustrated by Giovanni di Paolo di Grazia (ca. 1403-1482)






...destroy unthinkingly accepted nature

This is the difficult part - impossible for anyone who has spent a life on his knees to Urizen, for one must embrace the role of destroyer wholly and internally, annihilating the parasitical children of Urizen, to live a life open to the Logos shining through. This act of annihilation is the only true revolutionary goal, and puts the awakened man at odds with the determiners of globalist ethical culture and socio-economic processes. Our truly revolutionary act of annihilation will lead to a discovery of the “I” of Dantesque proportions, the discovery of the “I” in the Logos and vice versa.



We seek the Logos because, obscurely, we seek the originating principle that delivers us from evil, from error and from destruction, but we cannot find it as long as we ignore our own “I”, which bears the force of the Logos within it. The originating principle is Love; and the Beginning is the violation of the interminable cycle of nature by Love, and the the birth of the “I” as self-consciousness is the issue of this union. The “I’ as self-consciousness has one goal, not to be bound to pysycho-physiological nature, not to become a kind of epiphenomenon of it but, rather, to achieve an ascension from it. That ascension is the Beginning.

The awakened man destroys nature

The awakened man destroys nature

The Originating Principle is Love, and the Beginning is the violation of the interminable cycle of nature by Love. This act of annihilation is the only true revolutionary goal. The awakened man destroys unthinkinglyaccepted nature. With consciousness and freedom, he leads the process of disintegration and reintegration. With consciousness and will he reverses a process that is ages-old, one in which the shaping force of thought has been reflected back to us and falsely understood by us to beself-sustaining nature, or matter. I am such a man, who has escaped entrapment as a sub-humanoid of Beulah. With self-consciousness and freedom, I lead the process of disintegration and reintegration, in a direction opposite to that of accepted nature, that which attracts the shaping light of mind, reflecting it back as reality to the bestialised masses. Within the vehicle of pure living thinking, I invert such a direction and destroy unthinkingly accepted nature.

The LOGOS dialectic

The LOGOS dialectic

Through love, man inclines his will to that of God, and thus human nature is no longer at variance with its LOGOS.



What is God and where is He?



God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him (1 John 4:16)

You and “I”

You and “I” 



The continuous death of thought intensely asks your soul’s essence for resurrection, as a restoration of the life from which it continually springs, unknowingly. For this resurrection is already actualised your heart. The saints of every region on Earth have born witness to it. Now,however, the time for conscious resurrection has arrived. Mental effort must not be avoided. Now, the “I” that you say you are cannot be the “I”, except in living thinking. But how? I hear you ask.

All we have is metaphor. As man ate of the tree of knowledge, he was unable to fulfil his vocation as mediator of all creation. Meant to rule over creation in a relationship of love, Adam instead gave himself over to his senses and became dominated by creation. The task for you as a descendent of Adam is to reassert control over creation. But won’t it take an all-powerful god to meet this challenge? you ask.

Man is a microcosm, the universe as a macrocosm is a man distended. As body and soul constitutes but one man, so the visible and invisible aspects of the universe constitute but one cosmos. The relationship between man and the universe does not remain static, but takes on a dynamic element -the duality should be transformed into a unity unthreatened by dissolution. This role of mediation and unification, of uniting diversity, with all diversity preserved, is a consequence of man’s bearing the image of God. This role of unification is the LOGOS of man, and man in this role is the LOGOS.

Awakening as the lightning strike

Awakening as the lightning strike

The destructive act upon reflected nature, or ‘thought petrified’


The light of the Logos, shines upon nature through your eyes … unless that light is extinguished at the point of its emergence. The truth is that nature before the light shines through is the cosmos before the Beginning, before ‘be’ing, before life. Before the light of the Logos shines through there is death. 



The cosmic creation story is the metaphor for the individual's awakening. Before the individual's awakening there is death. Through living thinking the light of the Logos shines through the individual upon the world. Life follows death. With your awakening will come the consciousness of the principle from which Nature is alienated. This consciousness enables the Logos flash of lightning to strike animal nature and render it human. The lightning strike is the destructive act upon reflected nature, or ‘thought petrified’, i.e. that which appears to be ready-made and devoid of your own shaping content. Until that strike, light remains solidified in the denying of itself. However, each disintegration of matter is a moment of ascension of the light, rendering the miraculous as an actuality, the beginning and the ascension - always.

Thinking is not confined to the skull

Cosmic Skull 1 by JJ Ludemann

Thinking is not confined to the skull

The transcendence must be realised, if the human being - and not its caricature - is really to be born. Thinking must be contemplated as a synthesis continually being born within the soul. For this contemplating is the soul opening up to the Logos that flows into the human being, not by way of a detachment from the human - as in the traditional world -but by penetrating right to the human essence. This is the ultimate meaning of thinking and of the human being’s self-individualisation. Thinking is not confined to the skull. Thinking, in truth, rests in the Logos. It must be worthy of expressing the Logos.

Radicalising the void

Radicalising the void



Nature without man is the vast oneness, the interminable infinite, the undisturbed equilibrium. It is before the Beginning, it is death. For the Beginning to be, the grip of nature must be released, death must be overcome and life installed in its place. Life depends upon the destruction of nature, its repeated destruction. Life depends upon the violation of Ananke, her repeated violation.



A sense of a freedom might feel ephemeral, and just out of reach, but how is the ephemeral made to be enduring? What is this ephemeral feeling? It is a sense that the equilibrium of the accepted might be disturbed, i.e. the interminable cycle of nature might be broken. This equilibrium in my mythological terms is the undisturbed realm of Ananke, i.e. the vast, the infinite, the One. The violation of Ananke is the Beginning. In the Beginning is Mind.

The ephemeral feeling of freedom is the light of the Logos breaking through. The light of the Logos can only permeate nature by destroying it. This destruction of nature must be the overcoming of that which was shaped by living thinking, but which is reflected back to us as ready-made material nature devoid of any thought (or spiritual) content,i.e. devoid of our own content.



Before this can happen, the chaotic equilibrium of the individual subsumed in nature must first be destroyed. The intervenor, the destroyer of that equilibrium is Love. Only the Elect, touched by Love, are newly conscious of that which is missing, i.e. the Logos, or the shaping power of living thinking. Only the Elect can wilfully violate Ananke and break the interminable cycle, thereby radicalising the void and opening the threshold to the light of the Logos.
