Notes On Physis
So I just recently got into a bitch fight with a drama queen “sorcerer” of a former nexion – who shall remain unnamed to protect his identities – about a week ago. He kicked me out of his group and erased my wisdom filled replies to him. It was hard to decipher his incoherent rants, but he basically said something like: “the Seven Fold Way is a magickal failure.” Or that the Seven Fold Way fails as a system of magick? Something like that. It’s not the first time I heard something like this before. I heard several times that we should just do away with the Seven Fold Way because it’s too hard to go through and it takes way too long.
I also read a post written by an ignorant fool in one of the many Satanic forums and occult sites that litters the internet of some smartass who said something like: “The ONA is stupid because they want to evolve and change their initiates into a new type of human, like what, that’s not how Darwinian evolution works?!”
I also was listening to a dumbass on Snapvine [a voice blog for the illiterati] who was giving his 7 listeners in the Snapvine community a lecture on Anton Long and how this ONA concept of Internal [Inner] Alchemy is pure bullshit. This retard in question read a definition of the word “alchemy” out of a dictionary and basically said that Anton long is full of BS because alchemy is when you turn lead into gold, and people’s insides aren’t made of lead.
So I was just thinking about all of these view points put together trying to figure out a way to explain what the Seven Fold Way of the ONA does in more relatable terms for my future children, so they would understand it and not be so confused like those three individuals up there.
First, I have a real personal problem with what’s called “magick” in the Western Tradition. It’s fine if everybody else likes it. But I personally don’t like the stuff being sold as “magick” in the Occidental market. When I say “magick” of the Western Tradition, I mean all of the bastard children of the Lesser Keys of Solomon and the Golden Dawn. Because without such old grimoires written by idiot feudal brained peasants and the highly ritualized magick of the GD [which was very original during it’s time and era] no system of Western magick would be here, because what memes composes such modern forms of magick evolved from memes originally found in those older sources.
And you know grimoires like the Goetia et al was written by an idiot who projected his feudal perception of reality onto some demonic realm where demons and spirits have “kings,” and “dukes,” and ranks and legions to command. As if to say that spirits couldn’t conceive of a more better system of government then the feudal shit people were living in. Do you think hell, or the demonic realm today is still operating on a feudal system or perhaps they also had their democratic revolutions and now live in a demonic republic too?
So you have the Occidental magickal belief that when you know the secrets of conjuring up one of these spirits that they will give you secret magickal powers. And the grade system of the Golden Dawn and such magickally inclined Orders makes it appear as though the higher up in the grade you go, the more super duper the magickal secrets becomes. Until – until! – you reach the very tippy top of highest level of Adept where you can walk on water, raise people from the dead, fly in the air, kill people with an evil eye look, and do whatever super delusional human sorcery powers you so desperately desire – anything to not be an empty nobody inside like you really are.
And so here’s the ONA with this thing called the Seven Fold Way with its seven degrees/grades ending in Adept and Immortal, that magickally changes you inside, and you see all these words you think you recognize and you think to yourself that when you become an ONA Adept you’ll have super duper magickal powers like a god! Is that really the case? Is this what the Seven Fold Way is about?
[Quote Hostia 1]
Excerpt from “Selling Water By The River.”
Q: But surely rituals are important – e.g. the Black Mass?
A: Yes – but only in the beginning stages of the Way when the novice/initiate is discovering the hidden (or magickal) forces of nature and themselves, and is daring to walk along the’ path to Adepthood. Ceremonial and hermetic rituals are the province of the novice and the ‘External Adept’ and are pointers to what is beyond.
Q: Which is what?
A: First, the discovery of the unique Destiny of that individual, second the living of that Destiny, and third, for those whose Destiny becomes fulfilled by such living, the crossing of the Abyss. From the Abyss the Master and Mistress is born. All this takes many years.
[End Quote]
Bootcamp
I’m not really sure why these proletarian mundanes out there have such a hard time understanding how a person can evolve and change inside – Internal Alchemy – by doing certain things with discipline and force of will?
To say that the Seven Fold Way doesn’t work and doesn’t do any thing, is as ignorant as me saying this: “So what’s the big deal with boot camp anyways? It’s just 4 months of Phys-Ed. I had 4 years of P.E. in high school. Big deal.” The only people who would say something like this are those who have not subjected themselves to join the military and live through boot camp. I personally have not experienced a boot camp, but I have friends and cousins who are in the military.
The rigorous and demanding months of boot camp isn’t a system of arbitrary physical training exercises. Boot camp is designed to Change who you are inside and how you do things. It designed to not only train you physically, but also mentally, emotionally, and psychologically. Because as a future operating member of the military, you need to be a certain type of human being that is very different from a normal person.
You need to be able to think clearly and straight. To understand that military operations have objectives, and to follow orders to help manifest those objectives, or to act and think for yourself in certain conditions to execute those duties. You need to be able to know how to function and operate in a group setting as a functioning unit to contribute your personal effort and energy to a collective aim. You need to be able to understand that certain “virtues” that civilians don’t think much about or live by such as Honour, Loyalty, and Duty, to a Soldier out in the battlefield is a real matter of life and death.
All of these conditions are instilled in a new Soldier during boot camp and afterwards. Such that if you were to take a pre-boot camp boy, and compare him to his post-boot camp self, you would be able to clearly see that this person is somehow changed and is somehow much different from a normal civilian. That change that took place is what may be called “Inner Alchemy.” Which Inner Alchemy genuinely did change the Solider such that he is very different physically, mentally, emotionally, and psychologically from an average civilian human.
Boot camp isn’t the only circumstance in which an undisciplined human being is changed into a new type of person. The streets and prison to gangbangers is a boot camp. Real street soldiers who live the life of a functioning and operating gang member over time will change into a new type of person inside to adapt to the way of life he has chosen. Put yourself in prison for a few months and tell me it don’t have the power to change you in any way. Prison will either make you or break you, depending on what kind of person you are. The streets will do the same over time.
You need to have it in you to be indifferent to your enemies and “civilians” when you are a gangbanger, so that it don’t affect you mentally, emotionally, and psychologically when you kill, rob, and rape for your own benefit and your gang’s benefit. Like a State Soldier, a Street Soldier needs to deeply understand that such concepts that the average citizen rejects like Honour, Loyalty, and Duty, to you as a gangbanger, is a matter of life and death for you and your family. If you don’t have the discipline to follow orders to help manifest a collective objective, or cannot think for yourself alone to help actualize those objectives, it is also a matter of life and death.
There is a great big difference when you take a military veteran and an OG gangbanger and compare them to an average undisciplined civilian who live his life in an incoherent manner without aim or objective, purpose or virtue. The difference goes far more deeper then just experience and ways of life.
You clearly will be able to see, if you study the two State and Street Soldiers with the mundane civilian that one of these sets of people have the genuine ability to assert and exert their Will and energy onto the real world, to change the world they live in, while one is a subject of circumstances.
Time and time again we’ve tried to get everybody to understand that Coherency and Organization is the “secret” of the Cosmos. When things such as carbon atoms have the “discipline” to stay in a coherent formation/pattern it becomes a Diamond as opposed to a lump of coal. When an army or gang has the discipline to format its units into a coherent structure, that Coherent Structure has the ability, capability, and power to genuinely actualize potent Force to assert and exert itself to change causal reality and human destiny. And this is real, genuine magick – the magick, power, and potential to change and alter the world according to your Will. But that shit needs Discipline because you can’t have a coherent structure without Discipline.
I’m not talking about some stupid magick and sorcery of conjuring demons and spirits to make somebody fall in love with you, or that stupid chaos shit, or some vampire sorcery. I’m talking about real damn people, real goddamn synergy, real Force of Will, and real change of people and reality! Real shit the ONA needs if it desires to aeonically evolve civilization into a stellar civilization. No amount of demons conjuring, chaos shit, or sorcery is going to materialize a galactic empire!
The inner realm of a person comes naturally in an incoherent format. In a normal civilian his thoughts are everywhere, he has no control of his emotions or actions. He is random and internally incoherent. Outside stimuli and circumstances dictates his behaviour, emotional reactions, and actions in life. The mundane civilian even needs to go to college for 4 years just to learn to be internally coherent enough to get a fucking job!
This is what I understand when I hear and use the terms “Internal Alchemy,” and “New Type of Human.” This is what I understand when I hear terms like “Ubermensch,” and “Surmounting of oneself.” It’s the process of taking an undisciplined and incoherent person and changing him/her inside into a disciplined and coherent higher form of human who will have the knowledge and discipline to genuinely effect their world in very real ways.
Physis Is A Process
The Seven Fold Way is the ONA’s Boot Camp by which you as an initiate gradually are processed into a new kind of person. All of the aspects and components of each of the grades of the Seven Fold Way are necessary for real inner change: the secret tasks, the outer tasks, the tests, trials, ordeals, insight roles, and Time. There are many ways to discipline a person into an individual who is coherent who has mastership and control over his/her thoughts, emotions, and actions. Religious institutions and monasteries utilize many time tested proven techniques. As do most militaries. They all share the same basic components and principles.
When you compare a monastery to a military you will begin to see the basic components they share in common. The first thing you will see is “Group Identity.” When you join a monastery or military you know and can feel that there is a Group Identity. Catholics belong to catholic monasteries, Buddhists to Buddhist ones, and American soldiers to the US Military.
Next you will see that a monastery and military utilizes methods of instilling that Group Identity into the new initiate. This is done via Mythos and repetitive Ritualism. Prayer, mass, and the Jesus mythos in a Catholic monastery. Meditation and the mythos of the Buddha to a Buddhist Sangha. The Mythos of the Founding Fathers, and daily chores and drills in a military boot camp. This method of instilling a new comer with group identity is even used by gangs of any kind.
The mythos of a gang is its flag colors, its history you here the OG’s talk about, the oppression of your people if you are a minority, or the superiority of your skin color if you joined a skinhead gang. The repetitive ritualism of a gang are simple, but powerful. Its hanging out daily with seniors of a gang, helping out in gang business, drinking and smoking dope with your homies, and those gang hand signs. In Buddhism those psychological triggers [gang hand signs] are called mudras. In the military it’s the salute – sticking your hand to your forehead. In Catholicism it’s touching your finger to your breasts and forehead to make a cross. Each time you perform such psychological triggers, you re-enforce that Group Identity into yourself. Repetition of a group Motto or slogan will also do this. Mythos and repetitive ritualism engineers a common shared Culture – Group Identity.
Specialized Discipline is the next commonality. Once the new initiate has adopted the Group’s Identity, he needs to learn to Function and Operate as a unit of a collective. This is the priesthood in Catholicism where you learn the finer details of how the group operates. This is the sangha and its rigorous mental training in Buddhism – learned to memorize the entire collections of sutras to chant them and such. This is boot camp in the military. And in gangs, your specialized discipline takes place hands on in the streets. If you fail as a junior gangbanger on the streets to be disciplined and can’t function in a group, then you’re dead or you’re going to prison.
The last commonality you will see is “Group Objective.” Every group has one: Salvation and conversion of heathens in Catholicism; cessation of human suffering in Buddhism; killing enemy gangs, making cash, and dominating territory for gangs; enforcement of US foreign policies in the US military. Once the new initiate has successfully become a functioning unit of the group, he is put to work to actualize the Group’s Objectives by using what skills he has learned from his Specialized Discipline to change the world. And that’s where the real magick happens. The magick of a group of disciplined people merged as a synergetic coherent organism asserting and exerting it’s Will on causal reality.
It’s this genuine magick that gave Catholicism the power and potency to manifest Christendom which ruled Europe for a good thousand years. It’s the same genuine magick that gave Buddhism the power and potency to manifest entire groups of empires and civilizations across Asia for the past 2500 years. It’s the same magick that gives organized crime the power and potency to make 200 billion dollars a year. It’s the same genuine magick that America is using to literally shape the entire earth to its liking. In each case not only does this real magick manifest entire civilizations, but it influences the human race on a massive scale – over causal Time of course: Aeonics. That’s Magick, so fuck your sorcery and chaos bullshit!
The ONA already has its Mythos and repetitive Ritualism in the Black Book of Satan, Naos, and such works as the Deofel Quintet and other sinister fiction – which is a tool that instills Group Identity and common culture.
The ONA boot camp or its process of Specialized Discipline is the Seven Fold Way and everything related to it as contained in Naos and the Hostias. You must, as an Initiate of the ONA, consciously put yourself through the Seven Fold Way to change you inside as a person. Each task, ordeal, and insight role disciplines you and changes you. The insight roles are in my opinion important in teaching you how to control your own mind, thoughts, emotions, and actions as it requires total mastership of yourself to maintain a role or character for 6 months to a year. As I said, there are many methods of teaching you to learn to control your mind, emotions, and actions: insight roles are just a hands on and practical way of doing it.
It’s after we have spent all those years subjecting ourselves to the boot camp of the Seven Fold Way that we progressively become new kinds of people inside first, then outside. In the same sense that living through military boot camp or spending a year in prison truly does change you inside as a person. And it’s only when that inner change has taken place that you will have the genuine skills of an Adept to effectively further evolve yourself, and change human civilization aeonically in time. The Seven Fold Way is a means to engineer the right kinds of sinister individuals needed for this long term Group Objective. Without which that Group Objective will never come into fruition.
Anybody who says that the Seven Fold Way has failed, or is pointless, or asks “what do you mean a ‘new type of human’” is looking at the Seven Fold Way and the ONA with mundane eyes and have not themselves lived the ONA’s boot camp. The difference is one of Belief and Experience, or Intellectual apprehension and Realization. Like love or fire. You can sit there and intellectually debate what love and fire is and make judgmental valuations such like love and fire is useless or has a limited use. But when you have Experienced Love, and have felt being burned by fire there is an inner knowing – a Realization – beyond words that need no intellectual judgment. Go through it first, and then make an assessment, otherwise it’s an empty judgment. Anybody can make an opinion devoid of experience. Few are capable of the Experience.
