Awake Goy By Elsie Christiansen (1980)
People who style themselves as materialists, atheists, or just ‘believers in hard facts’ most often show all the ethical characteristics and moral prejudices of historical Christianity. Like the average Christian, they believe that Nature is there for man to exploit to his utmost advantage; vivisection, circuses, zoos and the fur industry do not trouble their conscience.
All man-centered faiths of whatever origin, place any human weakling of any race infinitely above the most perfect specimen of non-human nature — above a splendid lion or beautiful tree. Or, to speak more accurately, the average materialist, subconsciously soaked in Judeo-Christian morals, loves any repulsive human weakling more than he does the most majestic animal of the earth or tree of the forest. However, contemptible a human creature might be, physically, morally or mentally, he is, in their estimation, always worth saving – be it at the cost of any amount of suffering, disfiguration or destruction of other living creatures – always worth saving just because he happens to be in the human image.
Judaism, Christianity and Islam — the three ‘world’ religions plus Marxism, ‘Humanism, etc. express, either naively or in a more sophisticated form, the unchanged rebellion of man against the Cosmic Order, i.e. the belief in the concept of a personal, transcendent God.
These faiths of decadence all place man in the center of the universe and maintain that man was created in the image of their God, Yahweh (Jehova or Allah). Atheism, Marxism and ‘Humanism’ are the same religions, upside down or inside out. Man, in other words, created his deity in the image of man, not the other way around. The ‘world’ religions invented a transcendent creator of man, while their modern offshoots created religions of man in the flesh, but still with man in the central position – only his needs and desires merit consideration.
For two thousand years or more, the Western world has been subjected to an increasingly intensified campaign for the reversal of the eternal natural values, i.e. an anti-truth campaign. The three main religions proclaimed Yahweh the ‘God of all men’. They stressed anew the very old denial of the unity of the Realm of Life, and proclaimed ‘all men’ different from the rest of the world creatures — and consequently above the general law of life. For example, in Christianity, this viewpoint buttressed the false teaching that one blood flows in the veins of all nations (Acts:17:26), the idea being to kill all instincts of racial segregation and sexual polarity; preaching meekness, forgiveness and pacifism resulted in a people robbed of their health, stamina and pride.
However, both Christianty and Islam have traces of older religions too firmly embedded in them to be eradicated. Since the fargone days of the so-called ‘Fall of Man’, all those who have been waiting for the return of The-One-Who-Comes-Back, have looked upon this deity as the exponent of their particular faith, and as belonging to their people. The Jews took this same immemorial myth and made it into a dogma of a Jewish Messiah, to suit their purposes. But however this may be, it is still the old cosmic myth of the God who dies and rises from the dead.
Christianity used the Christ myth to build up around the person now called ‘Jesus’, a whole pernicious, man-centered, anti-natural philosophy in which they blended together, with much literary skill, a story with a seemingly positive mission of salvation, in order to make their negative values appear as positive, and the positive ones as negative.
Through the eyes of the Christian visionary, St. John of Patmos, we have the same myth in a new form: Christ is no longer a meek preacher of love and forgiveness, but the irresistible leader of the celestial “white Horsemen”, destined to put an end to this sinful world and to establish ‘a new Heaven and a new Earth’. But what is this other than the prophesy of a new time-cycle clothed in Christian garments?
The Mohammedan world is awaiting ‘Him-Who-Comes-Back’ under the name of Al-mahdi whom Allah shall send ‘at the end of times’ to crush all evil through the power of his sword – ‘after the Jews will once more have become the masters of Jerusalem’ and ‘after the Devil will have taught men to set even the air they breathe, on fire.’ It is no wonder the whole Muslim world is in religious turmoil, and has been since 1967 when the Israelis captured East Jerusalem. Rumors are rife that ‘The Expected One’ is about to make his appearance somewhere in the Middle East.
The origin of this myth which I have designated as ‘Him-Who-Comes-Back’ is contained in the Hindu religion of Old Aryan India. Kalki, the Avenger, is supposed to be the Last Incarnation of the Hindu trinity of Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva, symbolized by the three-faced Trimurti: Brahma is timeless, everlasting, inner peace – the Great Yogi; Vishnu, the Sustainer of Life, symbolized by the Sun; Shiva, the Destroyer or great agent of change, represented by the lightning bolt. Kalki, in the interest of Life, will put an end to this ‘Kali Yuga’ or ‘Age of Darkness’ and open up a new succession of ages.
In our mythology the return of Baldur after the destruction at Ragnarok will usher in the beginning of a new and better world.
Kalki, Al-mahdi, or Jesus (for they are all the same) is supposed to come and purify the earth, resurrecting a set of spiritual values. This belief is also mirrored in Central America, where about half a millennium ago, the Indians believed in the imminent return of Quetzalcoatl who would bring with him a new era of righteousness. The ‘Mahdi’ is, of course, the Old Zoroastrian Mithra clothed in Muslim robes. In other words, it has a Persian, or Aryan origin. ‘Jesus’, whether you believe him to be Krishna or Dionysus, is also Aryan in origin.
It is easy to see the similarity between Brahma and Wotan, between Vishnu and Baldur and between Shiva and Thor, even in the somewhat distorted way in which they now appear. Our Nordic forefathers, however, changed the trinity to four deities when they accepted Frey into their hierarchy. Frey represents dormant Nature which is resurrected and sustained by the Sun (Baldur). In this way the cross within the sunwheel became the symbol of their faith as it represented all four deities working in unison within the framework of the cosmos.
The crossing ritual, now considered to be entirely Christian and never part of a Heathen faith, was originally ‘making the Sign of the Hammer’. In Catholic and Orthodox Christian churches the worshipper uses the first two fingers of the right hand to tap himself first in a vertical motion and then horizontally; in the ‘act of Consecration of Man), which is the communion service of the Christian Community set up by Rudolph Steiner, the metaphysical Anthroposophist, the crossing ritual is completed by swinging the arm in a circle over the head and shoulders just tapped. Steiner’s group believes they are reviving the ‘early’ or ‘true and original’ Christianity before it was Latinized by Rome.
In the original crossing ritual which our forefathers used, they ‘hammered’ themselves by curling the fingers under and first striking the forehead, then the heart, next the right, then the left shoulder; to complete the ritual, the arm was swung in a counter-clockwise motion to form a circle. By striking the head, they honored Wotan; moving the hand in a downward motion, striking the heart, Baldur was remembered; Thor and Frey were revered in the horizontal motion when striking the shoulders – the right arm carried the weapon, asserting positive or aggressive force (territorial imperative) while the left arm carried the shield both the self and the tribe from harm. The cardinal points of the crossing ritual while the encircling motion represented unison within the cosmic framework.
Through this ritual our forefathers wished for sharper perception and understanding in the intellectual and emotional spheres (head and heart), and at the same time they hoped for proficiency in the material concerns of the world; the downward stroke symbolized spirit, the horizontal, the earthly realm. The ritual was as well an acknowledgement of their dependence upon the power of the cosmic forces.
We believe, contrary to what the Christians maintain, that the capacity to reflect the divine is closely linked to one’s race and the state of one’s physical health; in other words, that the spirit is anything but independent from the body. The Christian creed has successfully distorted this noble ritual and destroyed our ability to cope with the circumstances in our environment.
Reinstating the crossing ritual in its old Heathen form and with its original significance is something every person can do in private if he desires. The true meaning is obvious — head and heart, intellect and emotion are the main motivating forces for promoting and protecting family and folk.
Our forefathers saw life as an eternal struggle towards the gods, i.e. a noble and constructive existence. The Christian tenet of turning the other cheek and avoiding any form of violence is to live in an artificial, dream-like state, and it is the price we have to pay for being unfaithful to our true archetypes. To denounce violence indiscriminately is to condemn the very struggle against the forces of mental and emotional bondage to alien concepts and belief systems.
Today people either become fantastic “born-again’s” or take no interest in religion at all, and you are not put to torture for whatever you hold of religious beliefs. However, watch the behavior of our contemporaries towards those whom they look upon as the enemies of their social gods; men holding views contrary to theirs concerning political or socio-political ideology, and being bold enough to express such views, and you will see an intolerance as vicious as any agent sent from Rome during the Inquisition. Freedom of religion we have, and we should use this freedom to return to the beliefs of our forefathers, for in all other matters you are only allowed to move within the limits set by the powers that be.
In a world increasingly neutered, demoralized and degraded, this is not a surprise. But never mind how and when the bloody crash will come – Ragnarok brings with it the law of Eternal Return, a divinely established cyclic law that governs all forms of manifestations in harmony with the universal forces.
