    Savitri Devi, Traditionalism, & Nature Religion

    6,192 words

    From Esotericism, Religion, and Nature (Studies in Esotericism), ed. Arthur Versluis, Claire Fanger, Lee Irwin, and Melinda Phillips (Mankato, Minnesota: North American Academic Press, 2010).

    Savitri Devi (1905–1982[1]) was born Maximine Julia Portaz in Lyons, France, of English, Italian, and Greek ancestry.[2] She was a highly gifted and eccentric child. Early on, she embraced vegetarianism and animal rights out of a strong aesthetic revulsion to slaughter and other forms of cruelty to animals. (more…)

    Beyond the Left-Hand & Right-Hand Paths

    1,483 words

    If we believe that we are living in the dark age, or Kali Yuga, then we must believe that things will only continue to get worse before they get better. We should therefore look for silver linings whenever we can find them. One such silver lining is that the traditional distinction between the Right-Hand Path and the Left-Hand Path has crumbled. This crumbling has positive implications both for esoteric initiation as well as exoteric politics, and has arguably created the possibility of a Third Path that is more suitable towards action than contemplation.

    The Most Dangerous Game:
    Capital Riddles in Western Culture

    “Off with her head!” An original illustration for Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland (1864)

    7,655 words

    The Sphinx-riddle. Solve it, or be torn to bits, is the decree.

    — D. H. Lawrence

    A question, readers: what is the most profound of all human activities? With the previous sentence, I’ve already provided the answer, for it is the question itself — the thing that drives all exploration and philosophy. How can philosophy (or any knowledge) exist without first the riddle, the profound need for the answer? (more…)

    An Esoteric Commentary on the Volsung Saga, Part XIII

    All installments of this series available here

    It has been some time since I have published an installment in this series (the last, in fact, was in November 2019). After more than a year of research and reflection, I am ready to return to the story of Sigurd, Fafnir’s Bane. (more…)

    Remembering Mr. Gurdjieff
    (January 13, 1866/1872/1877–October 24, 1949)

    Mr. Gurdjieff

    7,589 words

    George Ivanovich Gurdjieff was born on this day in 1866, 1872, or 1877 — depending on whom you ask. [1] Much else about his biography is equally uncertain. We do know that his father was Greek, his mother Armenian, and that he was born in Alexandropol which was then part of the Russian Empire (it is now in Armenia and is called Gyumri). (more…)

    The Weird Victorians & the Last Enchanted Age

    Alan Moore’s The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: a modern take on the motifs of the weird nineteenth century.

    5,476 words

    It’s ill to loose the bands that God decreed to bind;
    Still we be the children of the heather and the wind.
    Far away from home, O it’s still for you and me
    That the broom is blowing bonnie in the north countrie. [1]

    Even below the Missouri-Compromise Line, the mornings now have a delicious coolness, faltering on the edge of a “chill,” and I found myself yearning for an old-fashioned, nineteenth-century ghost story. (more…)

    Beast Men & BLM: 
    Lanz von Liebenfels’ Prophetic Visions

    Jörg Lanz von Liebenfels
    Ostara and the New Templars
    Translated by George Klanderud
    GermanenOrden Series, vol. 4
    The 55 Club, 2019

    Deep-sea fish, bats, clairvoyant Frisians in foggy country, the saurian with the electrical central eye in an equally dim, misty world, the wise Nibelung-dwarves have a strange and conspicuous connection to the results of the most recent natural scientific research. (more…)

    Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

    So, there are blacks with beats, heebs with chutzpah, and Swedes with serenity. What is a white dissident to do in an environment in which the talents of his people are so easily turned into springboards for cultural developments that annoy at best and brainwash at worst? (more…)

    1,444 words

    The Peoples Temple, the utopian death cult best known for the Jonestown Massacre, recorded a gospel album under the name of the People’s Temple Choir in 1973. Far from an amateurish production, the album He’s Able features slick studio trickery and a surprisingly talented backing band for the choir to swing cuts of pop songs, (more…)
