Order Out of Chaos. Simple words, but profound and powerful. Our entire human civilization, and many thing we use today is founded upon this simple principle of bringing into Coherency what was once incoherent. Much like these coherent string of letters you are reading: made up of words and sentences; are the Ordering in Coherent Structure, the incoherent mass of an alphabet of 26 letters. Such as the incoherent possibility/potentiality – the chaotic soup of possible amino acids in nature – is brought into Order: where 4 basic amino acids are structured in a coherent [intelligent] manner to manifest the DNA molecule which is the living coherent coding/ordering of all living things.
Like the chaotic, incoherent steam of boiling water. By itself the steam would dissipate into the air: useless. But when it is economized – brought into Order – this same useless steam is forced into a coherent system of pipes and tubes which spins massive metal fans – in turn spinning magnets which produces electricity to power our entire present human civilization with electric power.
Like the incoherent chaos of the brute force of random groups, clans, and tribes of people – a force which like unordered steam is absolutely useless – is brought with scheming intelligence into Order. An Ordering or Coherent Structure wherein that chaotic brute force is funneled to manifest specific, strategic, real results: the result of agriculture, architecture, war: which in turn manifests as Empire and Dominion.
I remember a time when I was a little girl when my mom brought me grocery shopping and she bought me a bag of rock sugar. They are usually sold in Asian food markets as candy, sometimes called rock candy. It’s like a jawbreaker with many sides made of pure sugar. I was fascinated with the bag of rock sugar I had and wondered how it was made. My dad showed me. It was like a little science experiment I found absolutely amazing.
He let me break up one of the big rock sugar cube things into little pieces to make a “seed,” and from that seed he said will grow a new rock. My dad took fishing line and tie the seed crystal to one end, and a pencil to the other end, and then we suspended the seed crystal in an empty mason jar. Then we boiled water and he let me add food coloring to the hot water. He said the new rock candy that will grow from this old seed will look different, and be the color of the food coloring. Then he let me stir table spoon after table spoon of common sugar into the hot blood red water, until there was so much sugar in the water, the sugar stopped melting and just made a pile at the bottom of the measuring cup it was in. And he poured the saturated red water in my mason jar and put in on my desk in my room and told me to watch, because as soon as the water cools down, the seed will grow.
So there I was, sitting in my room staring at the seed crystal waiting for it to grow before my eyes. It actually took a day for red cubes to grow around what was once the seed crystal forming this blobular geometric mass of deep red big sugar crystals. The image and concept of some fractured seed crystal when nurtured right can – by itself – grow, evolve, into something entirely new stuck with me in my little mind forever.
It is just absolutely amazing to me how a mix of incoherent ingredients when brought into coherency, and placed in the right condition and matrix will evolve and manifest causally as something real and living.
Like the “rock candy” that Hitler made in the 1920’s. Where he took seed ideas from here and there scattered about Germanic culture and folk culture, mixed it with bits and pieces of Hindu mysticism a la Madam Blavatsky et al, grafted and pasted the Italian fascist salute to his thing, and used the Chan Buddhist swastika as his symbol. How inconceivable that this cut and paste, hodge-podge “seed-thing” Hitler put together, when placed in the right conditions and matrix would evolve on it’s own into something so powerful, it literally took the whole world to stop it! The matrix being post war Germany, and the condition being the humiliating effect of the Treaty of Versailles had on the mass morale of the German people and their collective psyche.
Like random floating sugar crystals, they crystallized around Hitler’s “seed-thing” he had put together form random things. And from that crystallization came a real living, breathing, dynamic Reich – which, as it evolved on it’s own grew to look very different from that “seed-thing” it grew out of. As my red rock candy looked different from the clear broken piece of rock sugar which I used as a seed crystal. As the seed of a plant looks nothing like the tree it grows into. As a zygote looks nothing like what you now look like.
Or now take even Christianity, America, and England. Can we truly say that these three things came out of nothing as is, already made for mass consumption – as if they appeared out of nothing the way we know it today? Or, could it be that each of these three things manifested gradually – evolved, progressed in form – from a “seed-thing” put together from random pieces of pre-existing idea and thing?
Where would Christianity be without Horus, Mithras, or Orpheus? Or pagans like the great Plato? Or even the Buddhism that had colonized Egypt’s great city of Alexandria, where Christianity’s first monastery was first born?
What would America be without the “seed-things” of England? Without the hodge-podge seed-things immigrants brought with them? Without hamburgers, beer, pizza, kong pow, and tacos? And what would England be with out the hodge-podge pieces culture of the Angles, the Saxons, the Vikings, the Normans, the Scots, even the Irish, and the many legends and mythos native to that island?
Can we honestly say that any invention or idea we have today came out of nothing as is? Or perhaps these things also are a re-presencing, crystallization, evolution, of a seed-thought. A seed-thought constructed from parts and pieces of previously existing thing.
Where would Ford’s first car be without the seed-though of a steam engine? What would Einstein’s theories look like without the seed-thoughts of Newton? Would we have ever gone to the moon, without the seed-thought of an arrow – a projectile being hurled through the air by force?
Not even we ourselves as a living causal species came as is out of nothing. Each of us came from a hodge-podging of both our parent’s genetic coding. Even as a species we are an evolution of, a re-crystallization of, a building upon, a re-presencing of: pre-existing things.
Nothing in Causal Nature comes into existence as is. It isn’t how causal phenomenon works. The very meaning of the word “Causal” suggests and says that something must be inputted to yield or generate a reactive output/result. Not even our world’s most near ethereal things: clouds and fire, come out of nothing as is. Each are the re-presencing of already pre-existing things: water vapor, oxygen, hydrogen, wood, heat.
In fact, everything that exists in this causal [material] universe is the re-precencing – the crystallization of – only a handful of the same basic compounds and elements in various different coherent forms. All the compounds which makes up our physical cosmos fit into the Periodic Table. These are then just the same handful of elemental atoms in various coherent constructs. In turn these atoms are nothing more than 3 basic components re-used, re-ordered: electrons, protons, and neutrons.
It’s the re-ordering of such elemental factors, into new compounds and structures, that manifests as the vast multitude of seemingly different things that populates our cosmos. It would not be correct to use reductionist thinking and say that because the same three subatomic elements which composes us and a star are the same crap in different ordering, that humans and stars are the same crap pretending to be different things.
This ONA is no different. The ONA isn’t a revelatory thing given to Anton Long on some mountain by some dark god as is. No one – not even Anton Long – pretends this is so. Anton Long even said he took a seed-thought given to him, and added new elemental things to it, and re-ordered it into a new coherent structure. To create a new seed-thought, from which would gradually evolve something living.
What would the ONA be without David Myatt’s concepts, or the Arabic alchemical 9 angles concept? Or even the Kabbalah’s tree of life, and the religious chantings of Magian monk? It’s not really what hodge-podge things composing a seed-thought that matters. What genuinely matters is what the seed-thought will become, what it will be capable of doing; what meaning, power, and life apprehension skills it will impart to it’s Initiates. What matters is what the ONA is today – what it will be in the future – and what it can transmute us into when we live it’s Dark Tradition.
The seed, and what the seed evolves and grows into are two separate causal phenomena. That clear, broken up seed crystal I used to grow a beautiful chunk of red rock candy out of are two completely different things. What I am today, and the zygote I came from are two completely different causal phenomena.
The hodge-podge seed-thing Anton Long put together from various sources and what the Order of Nine Angles is today – and what it can be, and shall be in the future – are two separate causal Ordering into Coherent form of what was once a chaotic mess of mere potentialities; brought together by intelligence for a purpose.
Now, having been introduced into the right matrix and condition, those who resonate with the “aura” of the Sinister Way have Coagulated around that once seed-thing of Anton Long’s, and have crystallized. And through us this seed-thought evolves, progresses, is re-presenced into a dynamic living Causal entity – to which each of us Initiates are but living cells of. Collected together for a purpose, our lives and minds; our hopes, dreams, and visions intertwined. Like spools of various colored yarn is spun together by the Norns, to manifest a fabric of Wyrd. A Wyrd which will one day bare it’s fruit for a future generation, long after we have gone.
