It is defiance which often drives a Satanist to carry out Sinister acts in this mundane causal world; acts which are dedicated to and are worthy of our Dark Prince and his Bride, Baphomet. Many such tasks are supra-personal in their goals, having a long-term aim of centuries, as is well documented in the various MSS regarding Aeonics.
But central to the personal life of the Satanist in undertaking such works, is the increase of the acausal within; that – via dark deeds – they themselves increasingly open the nexion within themselves, and so evolve to become a type of living nexion.
Defiance is the key here. A Satanist of some experience does not undertake an aeonic task with a view to witnessing causal success in their own lifetime: they undertake the task to defy the System of the Mundanes – and if the odds are completely against them in this, even better. For the act of defiance, even if that results in the death of the Satanist, increases the sinister flow of the acausal in this world.
Take a recent and significant attempt by the Order to earth forces into National-Socialism and to thus precipitate chaos and disruption within the System of the Mundanes. This small, fanatical band were characterized by no compromise and possessed very few resources, and they took on The System as defiant, pure National-Socialists. They took on the System because they wished to presence defiance, and although they had fanatical belief in their cause, it was also understood that the System would strike back with full force. Following a significant assault by our Comrades, the System crushed the movement swiftly. Comrades were jailed, some died, some just disappeared.
Was this a futile act? This is a question which once – such as in the ancestral age of the Vikings – would not occur to anyone to ask. For although individuals may fall, their deeds are remembered and are kept alive by Comrades through the dark ages to come, guarded like a scared flame and used as a source of inspiration. Warriors do not wait for the odds to even up for them – in fact, the more ‘futile’ the chances of causal success, the greater is the acausal glory. It is an insult to those who fought and were jailed and who died to claim such acts came to nothing. For it is in the heroic act of showing the System that we are still defiant warriors which keeps the magick of our Way alive.
The very same of course applies to those who undertake martyrdom operations, who are motivated by hope of reward in Jannah, which makes their acts of defiance heroic, inspirational and (to those ‘in the know’) esoterically powerful, regardless of the immediate causal outcome.
To reiterate: our way is powered by the magick of defiance. We can and should serve as examples of how Satanists should conduct themselves, particularly when the odds of some causal victory against the System of the Mundane are scarce, if indeed non-existent. The act of defiance – living in each moment as a warrior – is the magick of inspiration which chips away at the future, bringing its slow change, and which powers our greater acausal selves.
