Jack Steelnack: the saga continues

Jack Steelnack... we've met him before... and now he's here to take center stage as teacher and preacher, artwork and superman...




There he stands... Jack Steelnack... before his mansion... an exclamation mark in the architecture, a union of time and space, past and present, history and future...

That's him alright... that's him AltRight... the Absolute Man, Total Man, Magician Man... Sonnenmensch Divya... the mindful superman... the responsible man...

He's simply the man... he's simply Actionism embodied... Actionism personified... Actionism summarized in a human gestalt...

Gestation period over... now he's here amongst us... revealed like a divinity... a superman, overman, man plus...

+++

One man, against the universe... a single gestalt symbolizing the Man to Come... a king, priest and prophet in one...

There he stands... like a high priest, conducting a ceremony... a high priest, high on life... a priest inaugurating the New Age... a preacher preaching about the whiteness of space...

+++

He cruises into town... just like some sacred cow... visions of grandeur in his head... hubris and megalomania... egomania... monomania...

+++

Absolute Man... Total Man... Magician Man...

+++

You might wonder, "what occupation has he, this indescribable Mr. Steelnack? He must be something extra, something exclusive, like an artist..."

But then we say: he isn't an artist... he himself is the artwork...

+++

He cruises into town, stops in the square, and says:

"O all ye citizens of Dharma Town... ye married moms, soccer moms, divorced moms, queen-of-proms... ye sf fans, fantasy fans, weird horror fans, crime fans, fans-n-slans... ye altrighers and allrighters... ye Nietzscheans and Switzerlands... all ye creatures great and small... I love you all, and I bless you all."

As Total Man, Divine Man, he blesses us... rightly so... this is no mere show, no theatrical release... for in his being he has THE LIGHT... in him is engrained the I AM wisdom... thus, at the same time he is the most egoistic, and most pious person thinkable... he is God's Stellvertreter on earth... God's locum tenens...

He acknowledges God... and he, Mr. Steelnack, is a smaller numen under him...

God is God... and Jack is god, lower case g...

That's the god and superman he is.

+++

He stands before his house, alone, for only thus can you be a superman icon... he is alone in front of his house just as he meditates alone, sings alone, prophesies alone...

Prophesying is no group activity...

+++

He is a living work of art... by merely living, talking, doing stuff he exudes divine power... he gives us "that old razzle-dazzle"... by merely going about his business in Dharma Town...

He is god... he is superman... he is victory... victory... victory...

He lives in a palace with infinite hallways, infinite goldbars, infinite opulence...

He is superman... overman... man plus...

He talks to the animals, it's incredible...

He has a female dual, like any god... every god has his goddess... and Jack's dual is Melina Starr... a superwoman for a superman... he adores her, she adores him... and the gods made love...

+++

He goes down town in his fancy car, a chariot of the gods...

He sings,
If you've got a car, a trailer or a jeep,
Mercury Cougar, make sure it aint cheap,
Chevy Corvette, Metropolitan Met,
a Dodge or a Fudge –
then baby I can drive your car... I can drive your car...
Wheels... a glint of steel and a flash of light...

+++

He is art, he is myth, he is fairy tale come real...

And you, you who need problems, maladies, everyday nagging for a text to be relatable, I can only say: O ye of little faith...

You have no place in this... just go, and let us be done with you... you "Debbie Downers" and all like you... nihilists, pessimists, and atheists... the golden triad of sophism... all you psychoanalysts, particle physicists, and class struggle prophets...

This just aint for you... Jack Steelnack has got nothing to say to you...

+++

Jack Steelnack is Actionism... Actionist No 1... Actionist paragon... energist aestheticist... his life is his art and his art is his life... he just can't avoid being artistic... just see the pic of his palace, just marvel at the wonders inside... of the galery and the grand hall and the oratorium and the bathorium and the libratorium... with books of wonder for an age of wonder...

+++

Absolute Man... Total Man... Magician Man...

Moving in circles around you...

Processing data at lightning speed...

Sometimes he just sits there, observing you...

He doesn't seek happiness... he has it already... in his ever-ongoing meditation, he embraces action, inaction, bliss, quiet, happiness... he is Movement As State... Action As Being... you know the drill...

+++

Jack Steelnack says:

"The whole culture is antiwhite... which leaves the world to whiteness and to me..."

+++

When he's upset he takes a deep breath and says, "I AM"...

When he's feeling low and dejected, he takes a deep breath and says, "I AM"...

So you see, whether he's up or down he just meditates for a while, ending up in equilibrium... that's samatva, that's apateia, that's superman equanimity through thick and thin...

+++

He goes downtown in his bronze-shimmering coupe... controlling it perfectly... reading the instruments... speed, 70 km/h... time, 1.30 PM... exterior temperature, 10 centigrade...

He parks his car... he goes away through the urban labyrinth... he enters a marble house and interacts with people... he goes out unto a balcony and delivers a speech, saying, "I am the savior of the white race, bringing endless grace"...

Standing ovation from the crowd...

And after a while Jack continues his speech... and he says, "I will give you the stars... I will liberate you, and then show you the way to Mars... and then the stars..."

"I'm seeing the stars, like dust... I travel to Mars, it's a must..."

Apprehensive silence from the crowd...

"First we crush antiwhiteism, then we'll head for the stars... that's the program... that's my unique message... no one else on the whole planet says this... therefore, follow me... listen to my message... my basic message... which is... today the world, tomorrow the stars..."

"An unequalled renaissance will come... we shall raise the world from its lethargy"...

+++

Total Man... Absolute Man... Magician Man...

Astral Man... god-man... superman...

Sonnenmensch... overman... man plus...

Good reads, 23 July 2022

I've just read these books... fact and fiction, all in a jumble.




R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, The Temple in Man (1949)... an essay interpreting the Egyptian temple of Luxor as an esoteric library in stone. I got some wisdom out of it... about as much as I did from John Anthony West's Serpent in the Sky (1979), which tries to explain Lubitsch's book. Worth the effort if you have some esotericist foundation, otherwise this pair will be Greek to you.

Arthur Machen, The Great God Pan (1894)... a horror novel that influenced Lovecraft... Machen's novel is a bit slow and cumbersome, yet it was rather challenging when it came, intimating Pagan numinosities. This novel is mostly of historical interest but it does live in a kind of mythopoetic grey area... it has potential, it has flashes of brilliance. Available on Project Gutenberg here.

H. Beam Piper, Omnilingual (1957)... a short about explorers of Mars, searching through ruins of a bygone civilization... in focus is the decoding of its language... absolutely tops, succinct and rich in detail, meaning, and mimesis... available on Project Gutenberg here.

Raymond Chandler, The Little Sister (1949)... a succession of meaningless LA mileus and sleazy characters, nevertheless it kept me hanging on till the end. When Chandler avoided preaching, avoided diatribes of how bad life is he wrote with flair... that is, when the "active nihilism" comes to the fore it's a nice ride. One memorable scene is near the end, when a B-movie star named Dolores Gonzales arrives in a Mercury convertible and wants Marlowe to come along and rescue a common friend... I will say no more, this scene (which is merely a build-up to a dramatic denoument) has got it all... mostly in the form of understated dialogue... and the car, the Merc... a luxury car for its era... this just tops it off... Chandler liberally gives us names of the make of cars, that's a huge plus for atmosphere... the novel came out in 1949 but it must have been written somewhat earlier, given the usual magazine publishing before novelization... so I guess it was something like a 1946-48 Merc she drove... like the one in the pic.

So then, Kali Yuga is over -- but what does it MEAN...?

Good evening and welcome to this post. This text tells you what it is all about -- what traditionalism means, what new age means, what paganism means... in view of the Kali Yuga having ended.




Kali Yuga is over. I have just told you about the formal calculation supporting this view.

Now for the philosophical meaning of it.

+++

I’d say, the meaning of this is substantial. The implications of it are quite fundamental to our whole being as westerners of the 21st century.

For us of the radical-conservative persuation, knowing that the Kali Yuga is over, is of tremendous consequences.

I mean, think about it...

Look at the sources of the current radical traditionalism. Look at any “trad-rad,” any modern nationalist, any identitarian white person, any latter-day Pagan, mindfulness practitioner, Faustian romantic, Wagnernian, Nietzschean, new age enthusiast...

At what time in history did these particular movements appear? – They appeared in the late 1800s. The time when Kali Yuga ended.

Rudolf Steiner is the advocate of the “1899 end of Kali Yuga”. And even if you take the other relevant consideration into view, Yogānandajīs “1700 end of Kali Yuga,” it applies, because between the end of an age and the beginning of a new we have a transitional period called sandhyānsa – a period of about 400 years.

+++

Face up to it: Kali Yuga ended about this time (1700s, to be definitely over by about 1899), and this time saw the rise of countless liberation movements for Europeans: nationalism, paganism, wicca, Nietzsche’s critique of sclerotic Christianity and his supermanism, Wagner’s sweeping dramas of Germanic heroes – and, last but not least, all the new age doctrines beginning with Madame Blavatsky’s Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine 1877-1888.

This whole cultural movement is a symptom of the iron age of Kali Yuga ending, and the more free, creative, Lebensnah (“close to life”) era of Dvapara Yuga beginning.

The oppressive age of Kali Yuga, characterized by things like Christianity’s spiritual regimentation, and nationalism curbed by the internationalism of the Catholic church, and the early modern era’s rather unimaginative art, literature, and drama – all this suddenly ends and blooms in Dvapara Yuga’s indescribable renaissance of the Jugend era, the era of Art Nouveau – the era of Arts and Crafts, of pagan revival in both spiritual and artistic domains, of ariosophic speculation like that of Guido von List, in traditionalist outings like those of Julius Langbehn, Alfred Schuler, Stefan George, Evola, Guénon, Schuon.

To this, it was the era when Aleister Crowley appeared, the man who gave us the oft quoted wisdom, “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole law” – which, details aside, is an adage for liberation against oppression.

The era also saw the rise of nationalist movements from Greece to Finland, from Norway to Italy, yea, over the whole of Europe.

You know what I’m talking about. The late 1800s was a unique time of liberation, of spiritual awakening. This era saw a whole avalance of spiritual liberation movements for Faustian man.

+++

Hereby another aspect of this.

In order to characterize the different ages – Kali, Dvapara, Treta, and Satya – Yogānandajī referred to them as, respectively: Material age, Electric or Atomic age, Mental age, and Spiritual age [God Talks With Arjuna, p. 425].

Beginning with the transition between Kali and Dvapara, we have, in other words, in the modern era gone from a Material age to an Electric-Atomic age.

This is strikingly obvious. For, we all know that electricity began to be examined and successfully employed for scientific and societal means from about 1800 and on. And that atomic energy was to employed from the late 1800s and on.

And in the past, in the Dvapara Yuga that cyclically preceded the Kali Yuga around 3000 BCE, India saw the use of electrically driven airships called vimānas; see Bhāgavata Purāṇa. And in the Mahābhārata war atomic weapons were used, such as the brahmāstra.

It all fits the pattern.

+++

Since we in this article now have “gone east,” let us conclude the survey in that vein.

For, we say: Kali Yuga starting in 3000 BCE, and ending about 1899 CE, also makes the Hindu pattern of “Viṣṇu’s avatars” meaningful.

If Viṣṇu has ten avatars, the four latter ones appear like this: Rāma, 5000 BCE; Kṛṣṇa, 3000 BCE; Buddha, rather close to year 0; Kalki, at the end of Kali Yuga, that is, around 1899 CE.

CE means “current era” = now. And this my calculation, based on Sri Yukteswar, makes the Viṣṇu pattern of avatars make sense (while some other gurus’ chronology of “Kali Yuga lasting 432,000 years,” makes it completely unintelligible).

So then... if Kalki appears at the end of Kali Yuga, and that end was 1899, then who was he known as in the west...?

If Kali Yuga ended in 1899, if that was a conjunction of two yugas – then what?

Consider Bhāgavata Purāṇa 1.3.28, prophesying the advent of Kalki:

“Thereafter, at the conjunction of two yugas, the Lord of the creation will take His birth as the Kalki incarnation and become the son of Viṣṇu Yaśā. At this time almost all the rulers of the earth will have degenerated into plunderers.”

Again: Kali Yuga ended in 1899; this is the end of Kali Yuga, and the beginning of Dvapara Yuga... “the conjunction of two yugas” as the verse says... and so I ask you, what famous European politician was born about then... a politician whom Serrano and Devi has pointed out as exactly the tenth avatar of Vishnu, as Kalki...?

I rest my case.

Boknytt: Den heliga flamman (Svensson 2022)

In Swedish. -- Min senaste bok är en fantasyroman. Det är en äventyrshistoria med hjältar, fältslag, svävande städer, gudar och demoner, svåra uppdrag och sköna damer. Dessutom är det en radikalkonservativ historia; temat är, "hur ska man som traditionalist bete sig i en degenererad värld...?"

Fantasy. Episk fantasy. Fantasy i en medeltidsaktig värld, fantasy à la Tolkien, Moorcock och Zelazny -- det är vad jag denna gång kan bjuda på.

Med andra ord så har nu, med Logiks hjälp, den eminenta romanen Den heliga flamman sett dagens ljus. Sidantalet är 192 och du kan till exempel köpa den här.

Handlingen: vi befinner oss i en värld kallad Manhem, en i och för sig ärevördig kultur med slott, vida skogar, gåtfulla varelser och magisk kraft. Tiden ifråga är dock degenererad; den kännetecknas av sådant som att att inga hjältar längre finns, folk står på banditernas sida, trohet och tradition är skämt och allt handlar om pengar och snöd vinning. I denna värld och i denna tid lever Parvan, den Svarte Riddaren, som frilansande hjälte. Men den där riktiga, heroiska glöden vill inte infinna sig. Ty tidsandan är emot hjältedåd av gammalt, klassiskt slag.

Så vad göra? Parvan finner till slut att han måste ta Steget, det förbjudna steg som alla varnat honom för: söka Tyrelion, Det brinnande svärdet, svärdet som kan få hela världen att brinna upp i en jättebrasa...!

Han måste dra svärdet för att råda bot på världens sjuka. Hur det går får du veta i romanen.

Jag har gett ut romaner förr. Mina två första var på svenska, Antropolis och Till Smaragdburg. Sedan kom två på engelska -- Redeeming Lucifer och Burning Magnesium -- som ännu finns att köpa. Och nu, äntligen, en roman av mig på svenska som finns i internetbokhandel.

Mycket nöje -- men kom ihåg, det är inte en roman med enbart softa scener och ljuva varelser. Nej här kan det även gå ganska hett till...!

Good evening.




Sun's shining... the weather is fine.

I've just read the saga of Ragnar Lodbrok. It was fine. A sturdy Nordic tale.

Other stuff that I've recently read:

Heinlein, The Roads Must Roll, 1940. A short and a re-read. It was OK, it was early Heinlein at his best... action-packed, with sociology and a little hands-on psychology thrown in for good measure.

Wells, The War in the Air. A novel from 1908, with some leisure and bantering telling of a future war, fought mainly with airships. It takes a little while until the action begins but Wells had stylistic flair, he had narrative charm; this holds true for almost everything he wrote before WWI. Then, in shock over the destruction and carnage of 1914-1918, he became a dull reformer and social engineering preacher.

Vishnu Purâna. A fine introduction to Indian myth, piety, kingship etc. It is a little like Manu's Laws, albeit with more religion and myth-making = more readable.

Édouard Schuré, The Great Initiates. In the late 1800s the French scholar Schuré wrote several portraits of great religious figures, of whom the best were those about Hermes, Orpheus, Pythagoras, and Plato. Schuré had style and flair; sometimes he got things wrong but, like Spengler, his style had a tendency to carry the day.

This will be enough for this blog post. Good day.

Kali Yuga is over -- some notes on a controversial subject

The Kali Yuga might be over. According to Indian guru Sri Yukteswar, and his disciple Paramahamsa Yogananda, the idea of a Kali Yuga lasting hundreds of thousands of years, is due to a chronological error. -- Edit October 2022: here is a kind of sequel to this article, a deliberation on what this all means.




The Kali Yuga is over.

Not all Indian scholars agree about this; not even all European scholars hold this view. But in this post I will look at an Indian doctrine advocating that the Kali Yuga indeed has ended. Then, I will look at some other, non-Indian scholars giving support to this view, that the Kali Yuga is over.

In short, it is about this.

The orthodox Hindu view is that Kali Yuga, the oppressive age of Iron, is the current era. And it will last hundreds of thousands of years.

Prabhupāda for his part meant this, as did equally influential European scholars like Evola, Guénon, and Serrano.

However, some, both in India and the West, have disagreed with this view.

Rudolf Steiner, for his part, meant: Kali Yuga ended in 1899. And in various ways, this is supported by Paramahaṃsa Yogānanda and Drunvalo Melchizedek.

And hereby the sources for these three items so that you can check them up:
1. Steiner: Olav Hammer, Profeter mot strömmen, W&W 1999, p. 318.

2. Yogānanda: Paramahaṃsa Yogānanda, God Talks With Arjuna, Self-Realization Fellowship 1999, p. 733-735 et passim.

3. Melchizedek: Drunvalo Melchizedek, The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life, Light Technology Publishing 1998, p. 101 (the illustration for this blog post is from this book).
In other words, I’d say, this information might cheer you up. We have the trials and tribulations of Kali Yuga behind us. According to Melchizedek (ibid) we are now in Dwapara Yuga, heading for Treta and Satya Yuga.

However, we need to go deeper into this. We will in this article focus on what Paramahamsa Yogānanda says in the matter. We will also look a little at what Melchizedek says.

Again: The Kali Yuga won’t last hundreds of thousands of years. Instead, it only lasted some thousand years – and now it is over. This is of a rather profound importance for our times, for how we look at the world and ourselves.

+++

In the Bhagavad-gītā of Paramahaṃsa Yogānanda (God Talks With Arjuna, see above) we get the classic text of the Gita plus translation and comments. And the comments on verse 4.1-2 is rather interesting.

For its part, Bhg 4.1-2 speaks of the wisdom of yoga being handed down from Kṛṣṇa to Ikṣvāku, from him to Manu, and from then on to other seers and sages. However, according to Yogānanda, with the advent of Kali Yuga, “the science of yoga was almost forgotten”. (p. 425).

The common idea is that Kali Yuga began sometime after the Kurukṣetra war was finished, about 3,000 BCE – in the time of kings Yudhiṣṭhira and Parikṣīt. That is fair enough – but – one school of ancient chronology then got it wrong. The almanac came in disarray. In a note on p. xx of Yogānanda’s Gita this is clarified by referring to what Yogānanda’s guru, Sri Yukteswar, once said. Sri Yukteswar meant the following about the confusion of the almanacs:
The mistake crept into almanacs for the first time during the reign of Raja Parikishit, just after the completion of the last descending Dwapara Yuga. At that time Maharaja Yudhisthira, noticing the appearance of the dark Kali Yuga, made over his throne to his grandson, the said Raja Parikshit. Maharaja Yudhisthira, together with all the wise men of his court, retired to the Himalaya mountains, the paradise of the world. Thus there were none in the court of Raja Parikshit who could understand the principle of correctly calculating the ages of the several yugas. Hence, after the completion of the 2,400 years of the then-current Dwapara Yuga, no one dared to make the introduction of the dark Kali Yuga more manifest by beginning to calculate from its first year and to put an end to the number of Dwapara years. According to this wrong method of calculation, therefore, the first year of Kali Yuga was numbered 2401 along with the age of Dwapara Yuga.

(Shri Yukteshwar quoted after Yogānanda p. xx)
The publisher of Yogānanda’s book continues in the note on p. xxi: “Thus, though it was known that the world was in the Kali Yuga, year 1 of that yuga came to be figured as 2,400 years earlier than it actually was. (Even when it was pointed out, centuries later, that the scriptures specify the length of Kali Yuga as 1,200 years, the erroneous calculations persisted by scholars’ assuming that these 1,200 years were “years of the gods,” each lasting 360 ordinary years. Since that time, therefore, Kali Yuga has been held to endure for 432,000 years rather than 1,200. “A dark prospect!” Sri Yukteswarji wrote, “and fortunately not true.”)

Skipping some details we may then say that Yogānanda, based on Sri Yukteswar’s calculations, means that Kali Yuga is over now. Based on the idea of Kali Yuga only lasting some thousand years (and not hundreds of thousands of years), Yogānanda holds that by about 1700 CE it was over. We are in Dwapara Yuga now.

About the same is said by Drunvalo Melchizedek. He is an American new age guru currently alive; he was born in 1941. In The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life we read of his doctrine, based on Sri Yukteswar. Melchizedek says: we are now in Dwapara Yuga, having left Kali Yuga behind. He also agrees with Yogānanda/Yukteswar on the following points (see illustration on top of post):

. The ages within each yuga (Kali, Dwapara, Treta, Satya) follow each other, not in a linear fashion, but in a spiral-formed mode.

. The succession of ages is divided into 24,000 year (Yogānandna; Melchizedek, 25,920 year) cycles. This cycle is divided into an Ascending Arc and a Descending Arc, each of 12,000 years. We are now in an Ascending Arc, a time of promise and “better times ahead,” illustrated by us having left the “iron age” of Kali Yuga and living in the “bronze age” of Dwapara Yuga.
More could be said in the matter but this will do for the moment.

The bottom line is: we are not in the Kali Yuga anymore.

Prabhupāda’s view, and the view of Evola, Serrano etc., that of a Kali Yuga of several hundreds of thousands of years, reproduced in several books read by today’s intellectuals, is to be doubted.

Nationaldagen 2022: En svensk predikan

In Swedish. -- Idag är det nationaldag. Sveriges nationaldag.




Sveriges nationaldag 6 juni har en något avslagen karaktär.

Man saknar den där nationalistiska glöden... iaf. rent officiellt.

Men hur som helst, här, på bloggen, hyllas alltid 6 juni i nationalistisk yra.

+++

Jag vill först nämna några ord om intressepolitik. Intressepolitik är egentligen något mycket sunt.

Man säger till exempel: "intresset ljuger inte"...

Intressepolitiken är ärlig. Den visar dig direkt vad det handlar om. Det finns ingen dold agenda här.

Det är då, föga förvånande, att jag LS för intressepolitik.

Jag är svensk nationalist, jag gör vad som gagnar mig och mitt folk.

Med andra ord: ni kan lita på mig, jag för intressepolitik, jag ljuger inte -- ty INTRESSET LJUGER INTE.

+++

Jag är nationalist. Svensk nationalist.

6 juni, dagen som idag är, är vår dag som Sverigehyllande svenskar.

Men som jag sa i början så är dagens allmänna, officiella känsla lite avslagen.

Nya ritualer behövs därför -- nya ritualer för att hylla vårt Sverige på dess stora dag.

Och jag står gärna till tjänst med att skapa sådana nya ritualer.

Nya riter, ritualer och seder, ett nytt "traditionsenligt dagsprogram" -- det är vad som behövs för denna lite undanskymda festdag.

Som antytt: folk i gemen ser lite likgiltigt på nationaldagen. Till och med bland nationalister hör man sägas, "det är midsommar som är den rätta nationaldagen, vem bryr sig om 6 juni"...

OK. Men jag kommer aldrig att släppa 6 juni som märkesdag.

Och bland annat föreslår jag detta som ritual: att promota Ett rike utan like. Boken som skildrar det traditionella Sveriges historia.

Det är perfekt, det är som gjort: 6 juni är dagen då vi -- bland annat -- diskuterar och läser min svenska historia...!

+++

Det grönskar; det ser ni på bilden överst. Det grönskar denna 6 juni. Och nationalismen spirar. Här på bloggen. Och i boken.

Detta är nämligen boken som säger att (1) vi etniska svenskar existerar och (2) vi har historiskt byggt detta land.

Ingen annan bok säger det.

Därför ska ni skaffa den, ta del av den och förundras över svenskens äventyr genom forntid, medeltid, tidig modern och modern tid.

Många har redan köpt den. Jag citerar inget idag -- men -- låt det räcka med att säga att detta är min populäraste bok.

+++

Detta är en svensk predikan. Det jag säger här idag. Och det jag säger i boken.

I min episka, historiska översikt från år 0 till idag, kapitel 1-9, predikar jag svenskhet.

Och i min rundmålning av svensk kultur, kapitel 10, predikar jag svenskhet.

Och i min geografiska exposé över vårt fagra land -- kapitel 11 -- predikar jag svenskhet.

Ja även i min rundresa bland svealändska minnesmärken, det avslutande kapitel 12, predikar jag svenskhet.

Så är det med denna bok. Öppet och dolt, explicit och implicit, är den en enda, stor, rungande SVENSK PREDIKAN.

+++

Framtiden tillhör det traditionella Sverige. Det traditionella svenskheten, byggd och levd av etniska svenskar, är den grund varpå detta land vilar; och den är den grund varpå vårt återtagande av detta land vilar. Återtagandet från den gudlösa, ondskefulla PK-ismen.

Vi går mot framtiden med basen i det förflutna. Med tradition bygger vi framtiden -- en strålande framtid!

Ny roman av mig

In Swedish. -- Min senaste bok är en roman.




Logik förlag har slagit till igen; nu utger man man en roman av mig. Den heter Den heliga flamman och är en fantasyroman.

Vi möter i detta verk hjälten Parvan; han är berättare, han redogör för sitt liv i den medeltidsaktiga värld det gäller. Världen ifråga råkar därtill vara tämligen degenererad; hur ska då Parvan råda bot på nedgången och förfallet...?

Det visar sig med tiden att det bara finns ett botemedel. Och det är att finna Tyrelion, Det flammande svärdet.

Boken kan förbeställas från förlaget här.

Boken finns alltså inte i sinnevärlden än. Men nämnas kan att den är på 192 s. Och här ges ett smakprov ur första kapitlet.

Mer info om boken kommer senare.

Jag säger bara: du "måste" kolla in denna bok. Detta är "eld och rörelse" i fantasyform, så att säga.

A Summary of the Historical Series

I am the one true voice of history...




Some while ago I posted an historical series on this blog. In grand, sweeping style it told of what characterized the eras of Egypt, Greece-and-Rome, and the present.

To summarize this series, and to add a little to it, I now say this of our historical perspective:

Introduction, presenting our philosophy of history.

Egypto-Chaledan age. 2907-747 BCE. Star sign, Taurus. Biotope, the Middle East. Bronze age. Symbolic vehicle, war chariot; symbolic art form, the relief.

Greco-Roman age. 747 BCE-1413 CE. Star sign, Aries. Biotope, the Mediterranean. Iron age. Symbolic vehicle, horseback rider; symbolic art form, the statue.

Faustian Age. 1413-3573. Star sign, Pisces. Biotope, Europe. Crystal age. Symbolic vehicle, rocket; symbolic art form, the portrait.

+++

To render this in readable prose you might say the following. – The Egypto-Chaldean age coincides historically rather well with the Bronze Age. Iron came around at the end of it but it would more definitely shape the following age, the Greco-Roman. The same goes with free-standing statues; they did occur in dynastic Egypt but they had the DNA of the relief in them, depicting the figure strictly frontally.

Horseback riding: in the Middle East this seems to have been established only with the late Assyrian empire, and then we are already in the Greco-Roman age, the age when the man on horseback eventually, around 1000 CE, would be the master of the world.

+++

Statues versus painted portraits: as Spengler has shown us the Greco-Roman age was focused on the statue as the primary way of depicting man. In the Faustian age it becomes the portrait. Ancient man focused on the body at rest, in ataraxia, while Faustian man is shaped by dynamism and striving. His image is centered in the face while his body need not be depicted, it may suffice with a fen pen strokes intimating chest and arms.

What way of transportation to symbolize our age is a moot point. I have chosen the rocket because then we have anything from firework rocket to spaceship. But Chinese man invented the former...? Indeed, but he didn’t transform it into the latter and go to space like Gagarin and all the rest.

More can be said of this series but the above will do.

Översikt: poddar med mig

In Swedish. -- Jag medverkar ibland i poddar. Härmed en lista.




Svenska poddar med mig som gäst -- det ska vi tala om här.

Jag medverkar för närvarande på ett ställe. Det gäller poddar i Jalle Horns serie "På gamla och nya stigar".

Den första med mig handlar om Oswald Spengler. Den gjordes hösten 2021.

Sedan har vi en om Ernst Jünger, som jag är expert på. Den är från i våras, liksom de följande.

Jüngertemat fortsätter med en podd om hans roman På Marmorklipporna från 1939.

Sedan har vi en podd om Mahâbhârata.

[Edit: sedan inlägget postades gjorde jag ännu en Jalle-podd. Den handlade om den tyske fältherren Moltke.]

+++

Det var allt. På den svenska fronten. Ty jag medverkar även i amerikanska poddar. Se här.

I inlägget ifråga länkas det till en handfull poddar, alla med funktionella länkar. Jag har nyligen kontrollerat detta.

Detsamma gäller länkarna i början av detta inlägg. Alla går till rika källor av podd-visdom.
