I think it's wrong. I believe Awakened ones are equal to proto-indo-european raiders and pillagers that sing songs for good bounty and strong boys in Rigveda.<br /><br />There was insanity, but only due to ever-weakening stock. Buddha had to react to cause a standstill, in order to salvage what little was left of the negrified stock at that point. What was natural disposition for gods had to be systematized and proselytized as Dhamma. Holy war, raiding and killing had to be completely removed, because Buddha knew that the population would rush down to hell and lose its awakened qualities the moment their few energies were directed elsewhere. There was not enough energy for other feats when the maintenance and survival of the basic states (of walking, sitting, standing, etc.) were already too much.user34987546https://www.blogger.com/profile/04428727807471156804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485583244199236996.post-33709381026006320852019-04-22T10:10:55.557-07:002019-04-22T10:10:55.557-07:00"If nothing of the kind is found in theravada..."If nothing of the kind is found in theravada buddhism, then that is a problem in theravada buddhism itself, and I deny such pacifism." Well, nothing of the kind is found in Theravada Buddhism. Part of the "problem" is that Buddhism was never intended to be a social movement. It was a radical renunciation of the insanity of worldly society which, from a Buddhist point of view, includes war.Paññobhāsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14148206217028034038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485583244199236996.post-73231201986625781202019-04-22T05:31:31.111-07:002019-04-22T05:31:31.111-07:00"an idea like Carl Jung’s, that Hitler was a ..."an idea like Carl Jung’s, that Hitler was a kind of prophet who channeled the collective unconscious of the Aryan race"<br />You should really reconsider the whole collective unconscious and its validity. Psychology with its various non-traditional and counter-traditional elements is one of the major weapons in occult warfare against the West. Jung was contaminated when he started to focus on semitic psychology and he never quite rid himself of all that baggage. Miguel Serrano followed him. Julius Evola did a through critique of psychology and neo-spiritualism in his major work The Mask and Face of Contemporary Spirituality (2018): https://arktos.com/2018/12/05/julius-evola-the-mask-and-face-of-contemporary-spiritualism/<br /><br />You also mention Wagner... very problematic figure. It is evident like I said in the beginning, you are still one foot in their framework. Serrano & Savitri Devi were very similar, they never got clean, always stayed partly in the enemy's system and "ethics". In The Mystery of the Grail, which is one of Evola's most important works on "Western civilization", these quotes are relevant to Wagner:<br /><br />Wagner perverting in a semitic way the Legend of the Grail:<br /><br />"J. Marx noticed that originally, the first and foremost virtue of the hero of the Grail was not chastity at all; on the contrary, his romantic adventures have sometimes a sexual outcome and are characterized by their fleetingness and lack of commitment. Only later on, as a result of the influence exercised by Robert de Borron's version, will the Grail's knight become the chaste virgin; this moralizing version will be popularized by Wagner."<br /><br />Wagnerian inclination is spiritually analogous to larger counter-traditional plot that overtook various spiritual organizations:<br /><br />"--the authentic representatives of [Hermeticism & Rosicrucianism] have not resided in the Western world for quite some time. The relationship between these organizations, on the one hand, and the Theosophical Society, Anthroposophy, and the like, on the other hand, is the same as that between Wagner's mystical-Christian and romantic-musical portrayal of the Grail in Parzifal and the authentic tradition of the Lords of the Temple."<br /><br />Wagner as animportant link in confuscating heroic rebirth of the West:<br /><br />"Unfortunately, most people know about the Grail, Percival, and related things only because of the arbitrary, pseudomystical, and decadent way in which Wagner portrayed them on the basis of a fundamental misunderstanding: this misunderstanding was further compounded by the employment of several themes of ancient Nordic-Germanic mythology in his Ring of the Nibelungs.<br />The same applies to the interpretations of some spiritualism that, often under the influence of Wagner, and lacking any serious and direct knowledge of the primary sources, has interpreted in a rather amateurish way the cycle of the Grail as some kind of "Christian esotericism;' building upon it all kind of fancies, small groups and gatherings. On the contrary, I have shown that the main themes of the Grail are non-Christian and even pre-Christian and to what traditional order of ideas (i.e., those shaped by the regal and heroic spirituality [LIKE BUDDHISM! -Samuli] ) they are properly connected. In this cycle, the Christian elements are only secondary and serve as a cover-up. They derive from an attempt at adaptation that has never succesfully unraveled what shows a substantial heterogeneity of inspiration. As in other cases, this effort at fabricating a nonexistent "Christian esotericism" should be regarded as lacking any serious foundation."user34987546https://www.blogger.com/profile/04428727807471156804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485583244199236996.post-12758831544939485712019-04-22T05:31:07.485-07:002019-04-22T05:31:07.485-07:00You seem to be a person on the path to awakening o...You seem to be a person on the path to awakening on the national socialism, still holding onto some liberal fundamentals although reacting to their most extreme forms. As Evola pointed out, this opposition to "later stages" is futile, you have to oppose the source of the plaque.<br /><br />"Aside from his hatred of Jews he was very similar in certain respects to Napoleon, who of course is not demonized all that much. Maybe Napoleon had less reason to hate Jews"<br /><br />What makes you think opposition is hate? You are buying into mainstream narrative where, first of all, hate is bad, and second of all, "Hitler hates". It may be that buddhism also has a prejudice against hate, but in my opinion this prejudice should be put in a context of strength and overall buddhist framework and not of weakness and "non-harm" / liberalism. So hate isn't bad because it's "harmful to those things you are attached to" but because it is ignorant. It's not bad because it's "wholly evil" but because it's not the highest possible perspective.<br /><br />"Dhamma declares self-view and the idea “I am” to be the fundamental root of all suffering and badness"<br /><br />Exactly, and this self-view is what keeps most people in docile pacifism. They're afraid to kill, because they are so attached to their egos and/or to other people.<br /><br />"One who is not motivated by false ego, whose intelligence is not entangled, though he kills men in this world, is not the slayer. Nor is he bound by his actions." BG 18:17<br /><br />If nothing of the kind is found in theravada buddhism, then that is a problem in theravada buddhism itself, and I deny such pacifism.<br /><br />"unless maybe one were declaring him to be a Māra-like"<br /><br />There was Roman von Ungern-Sternberg who was thought to be a reborn War God or dharmapala (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dharmapala). NOT MARA, but pala.<br />More on Roman: https://phosphorussite.wordpress.com/2018/12/19/the-white-god-of-war-baron-roman-von-ungern-sternberg-1886-1921/user34987546https://www.blogger.com/profile/04428727807471156804noreply@blogger.com
