A "new anti-Semitism" that emanates from an alliance of Western leftists and Islamic extremists is more dangerous than the "old European" form of Jew-hatred, Canada's minister of citizenship, immigration and multiculturalism said as he wound up a four-day trip to Israel Sunday.
"The existential threat faced by Israel on a daily basis is ultimately a threat to the broader Western civilization," said Jason Kenney, explaining the staunchly pro-Israel positions of his government, led by Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
"It's a threat that comes from profoundly undemocratic forces that don't have the same conception of human dignity or freedom, and which abuse Israel as a kind of representative of the broader West and Western liberal-democratic values," said Kenney. "I also very acutely understand the nature of the new anti-Semitism, and I think it's even more dangerous than the old European anti-Semitism."
Kenney said many anti-Israel attacks come from adherents of a form of anti-Semitism that who appear to view a Jewish homeland as illegitimate.
"Israel is not perfect, obviously," Kenney said. "Israelis should be the first to admit that. But we acknowledge that so much of the criticism Israel faces is motivated by a dangerous form of anti-Semitism that tries to hide behind anti-Zionism and is represented by a coalition of the far left in the West with extreme currents of jihadi Islam that seek the destruction of the Jewish nation. They seem to believe that the Jewish people are the only people in the world that don't have a right to a homeland."
The 40-year-old, who earlier this month was elected Canada's "Best Overall MP" by fellow parliamentarians, prides himself on being responsible for his country's decision to shun the United Nations-sponsored Durban II conference on racism, based on fears it would be misused as a platform for unfair criticism of Israel. Canada was the first country to announce its boycott of the meet, even ahead of Israel.
Before coming to Israel, Kenney visited Lebanon, Syria and Egypt, as Canada is home to many immigrants from these countries, he said. After arriving Thursday, he visited a Jewish Agency absorption center in Mevasseret Zion, outside Jerusalem, and met with his Israeli counterpart, Immigration Minister Sofa Landver. He also spoke to Minority Affairs Minister Avishay Braverman and Information and Diaspora Minister Yuli Edelstein, who is also the former chairman of the interparliamentary Canada-Israel Friendship Group.

Eric Hufschmid, dont la soeur a épousé Peter Murdoch,
le fils héritier de Rupert Murdoch.
Eric Hufschmid soutient que 99% des chercheurs de vérité sont des "agents sionistes" et accuse en bloc tous les chercheurs suivants:
Above, the cadaverous profile of Eric Hufschmidt, looks a bit like Michaell Chertoff huh?
Mike Delaney above
Talk about some nerve - this asshole Mike Delaney actually states that he knows more about the holocaust than Ernst Zundel! He then proceeds to shill for the known Zionist Jew disinformationist Eric Hufschmidt whose sister is actually married to Rupert Murdoch's son [I shit you not]. HERE is Hufschmidt, in his own words, on his own website stating the same. If you believe that's a coincidence, you're one dumb sumbitch.
Delaney is also connected to another asshole Jew that goes by the name of Quest [Real name Evren Hun Welshons-Kaplan (His mother's last name is Kaplan, as common a Jewish name as Goldfarb or Weinstein)]. Just last night this imbecile wrote a comment on my blog stating that he had read all of Ernst Zundel's books on the holocaust. [Comment at bottom under his pseudonym "Quest."] When I chastized him for being a liar and moron as Zundel has never written a book on the holocaust, he was a publisher, not an author, Evren Kaplan shot back that he [Zundel] had written "Did Six Million Really Die." As any revisionist knows, Richard Verrall, AKA Richard E. Harwood wrote that book and Zundel's publishing company Samisdat published it. This would be the kind of statement one might expect from a Jew shill, they don't bother to actually read revisionist works, they read excerpts and then expound on them with their superficial understanding. When caught they resort to name calling etc... it's as predictable as finding Jew involvement in economic crime.
In any case, with the stroke of a pen, Mike Delaney has completely exposed himself and Prothink; he denounces Ernst Zundel and Kevin Macdonald as agents of Zion and at the same time attempts to rehabilitate a known Zionist shill, Eric Hufschmidt. Delaney pals around with a known Khazar Jew, Evren Kaplan, what is one to think? Hufschmidt was once associated with another informant named Daryl Bradford Smith, but when Smith was exposed for what he was, they split up hoping that Hufschmidt might maintain a modicum of credibility, which never really happened.
Read Delaney's words below; my commentary in blue.
The label Jew, crypto Jew, agent, cointelpro, etc, etc gets thrown around these days as does cheese burgers get eaten by obese Americans at McDonalds. In this recent slander attack on Eric Hufschmid to call him a Jew, Grimm makes the case strictly of the biases that Eric states Zundel is working on the wrong side of the fence. [Ah, come on Mike, the fact that Hufschmidt's sister is married to Super-Zionist Rupert Murdoch's son is a pretty big fucking clue. You don't mention this absolute, empirical fact, in your article either, how come?] I have to say that I find from my own experience that Eric usually calls out someone for a number of reasons but simplifies for his audience by calling them Jews/Zionists/working for Jews.
One reason for Eric calling people a Jew when they are probably not is the fact that some people are put up on pedestals for no apparent reasons or their actions are very Jew-like. Take the Zundel case for instance. The holocaust is clearly just obvious case of a Jew crime/hoax and Zundel does a good job stating this but so does many other people including Eric Hufschmid.
Why would Zundel limit himself to one issue and not highlight issues clearly provable like 9/11? I don’t personally take a stance on what I think Zundel is because quite frankly I don’t even look to him for information because he seems to know less then I do.[Now THAT my friends is called Chutzpah!]
The same goes for many others, Kevin Macdonald for instance doesn’t speak about 9/11 and the Holohoax. Why is that? [Because he's a tenured professor that would be fired if he were to say anything publicly about the way he privately feels on the matter] I am sure I could hear a thousand excuses and I do understand he does have some excellent work otherwise, [LOL at "I understand" he [Professor Kevin Macdonald] does have "some" excellent work otherwise - this guy is almost too much. Reminds me of a cretin critiquing the work of a genius] but people lets face it, we need to expose these Jews on all fronts and as efficient as possible. The BIGGEST crime these people could go down for is not the kosher tax, Holohoax, etc, but 9/11. We clearly have the evidence to prove the Jews did 9/11! Why not speak about that? [Ernst Zundel is on record speaking about it you fucking bastard, he's on record stating that he knew before the second building collapsed that it was a mossad/CIA operation, and this is almost certainly why ZOG bent over backwards to illegally arrest Zundel on trumped up charges, to illegally deport him to Kanada where ZOG knew he'd be rendered to Germany and spend a decade behind prison walls. If ZOG fears anyone it's Ernst Zundel, there is no wayy in hell the governmennt was going to allow Ernst Zundel to exert 1/10th as much attention and energy on investigating 9-11, as he did on the holocaust. Ernst Zundel is a martyr and hero, you ignorant fool! You don't deserve to even utter his name]
A slight problem I have, if I were to nitpick here, I have with both Grimm and Hufschmid is that both are still labeling this as a ‘Zionist’ problem.[Obviously this dipshit hasn't even bothered to read anything Grimm's written, Patrick has no problem with the word Jew.] I find it funny that people are still pigeonholed on saying the term Zionist, instead of Jew. This starts a whole new debate about when and were to ‘comprimise’[speeling challenged itz] your message, which I wont do at all, a topic for another article. The one thing I can say about Hufschmid I know for sure is that he never ceases in pushing the biggest issues that would take down the Jew unlike many others. It’s a shame to see others who put 9/11 being a Jew job on the back burner for far less important issues.
Hufschmid has also been thee litmus test in the 9/11 movement to expose the real perps of 9/11.[ROTFLMWAO]It is certainly suspicious that people like Zundel and Grimm don’t harp on this 9/11 topic which I believe to be the biggest smoking gun that would bring these people down.[Again, this guyy blows more smoke out of his ass, proving he hasn't read anything Grimm's written] Between Hufschmid’s scientific debunking film, 9/11 Painful Deceptions, and my film showing WHO did it, Missing Links, it is easy to show this to people. Instead we get caught up in overwhelming people with numerous and far less important topics that makes the audience catatonic when it comes to action.
I am sure Hufschmid has called out people out inaccurately but everyone makes mistakes and the good he does far out ways the mistakes.[That's "outweighs" you goddamn moron! It's just a mistake really, anyone could denounce Ernst Zundel, a man that's devoted his entire life to exposing the Jew and who has spent that last six years rotting away in a German prison for an opinion that doesn't coincide with that of Jewry. Fuck You!] Ask yourself this, where we be right now if it hadn’t been for Hufschmid’s work? Maybe I would still be listening to Alex Jones. DBS of Iamthewitness.com wouldn’t have even been heard of like he is now [DBS AKA Daryl Bradford Smith is also a known informant]. Missing Links would never have been made. 9/11 and the controlling dissenting Jews would not have been exposed like they have been. Lets not forget it was of NO help from the pro-white movements to embrace or expose the truth about 9/11. For many years they were completely happen blaming ‘towelheads’ [That's because people like Alex Linder of VNN, a so-called White nationalist site are informants and running false fronts for the feds] and even today don’t exploit this crime against their number 1 enemy like they cold. So ask yourself, before you step on toes to defame someone, make sure you have the story straight or that you have done better to even privilege yourself with the right to criticize. [Delaney should have kept the old adage, "It's better to be silent and thought a fool, than to speak up and remove all doubt," in mind before writing this hit piece.]
VIDEO - Rumeurs, Intox, les nouvelles guerres de l'info 2e partie, entrevue avec Eric Hufschmid. Voir la photo de lui au premier cycle de conférences de Jimmy Walters, aux côtés du désinformateur Chris Bollyn et du menteur du 11 septembre Thierry Meyssan, qui est convaincu, comme Alex Jones, qu'Israël n'a pas pu faire le 11 septembre. Le fait que Jimmy Walter a personnellement déboursé des millions de dollars pour dénoncer le complot du 11 septembre, et le fait que William Rodriguez soit un héro du 11 septembre au WTC, n'a pas empêché Bollyn et Hufschmid de les accuser d'être des "agents sionistes"!
Thierry Meyssan : "On se méprend à propos de mes contacts dans les
milieux du renseignement. Il se trouve que j’ai été élevé, adolescent,
dans ce milieu. J’ai toujours connu des espions et je me suis toujours
senti à l’aise parmi eux. Je connais leurs codes et leur dureté."
reopen911.info
Canadian
Zionist conservative Jonathan Kay has been among the foremost critics of the
growing number of people in the United States and around the globe who have
questioned the official version of what really happened on September 11.
First
referenced in Chapter 17, Kay’s recent book—Among
the Truthers: A Journey Through America’s Growing Conspiracist Underground—outlines
Kay’s concerns about a variety of conspiracy theories, but makes clear his
foremost worry is the blossoming of 9-11 conspiracies in particular and that an
inordinate number of 9-11 “truthers” point the finger at Israel for that crime.
However, of
course, the truth is that most 9-11 dissidents are still largely determined to
direct the blame for 9-11 at George W. Bush or the CIA or “the military-industrial
complex” or the Illuminati or some combination thereof. Many who do suspect
Israeli complicity would just simply not even mention it.
And then,
naturally—and this must be said—there are also considerable numbers of agents provocateurs who have infiltrated
the 9-11 truth movement (just as they infiltrated the JFK assassination and Oklahoma
City truth seekers) who are consciously (and often quite successfully) muddying
the waters of research through their insertion of distractions and distortions
that redirect focus away from the real conspirators responsible for those
terrorist tragedies.
And this is
something that is critical to remember: at the time of the JFK assassination
there was no Internet. And at the time of the Oklahoma City bombing, the Internet
was in its infancy.
The growing
public awareness that something was wrong with the official explanation of the
JFK assassination was largely stimulated through books, magazine articles, and
lectures at small gatherings around the country by pioneer researchers such as
Mark Lane and Penn Jones and others whose efforts were supplemented
considerably by New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison’s journey into the
realm.
Literally,
word-of-mouth became—during the mid-1960s and beyond—one of the primarily means
of broadening discussion about the Warren Commission cover-up.
And
needless to say, during this time—and we now know this for a fact—the CIA was
in the front-line (although largely operating behind the scenes)—along with the
FBI—in doing a great deal of mischief designed to confuse research into the JFK
assassination.
And, I
think, it’s also fair to say that the Mossad’s own fine hand—through its assets
in the mainstream media, in particular—also played a major part in providing
vital support to the intrigues of the CIA and the FBI in this regard.
Essentially
the same scenario came in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing. This time,
with the rise of desktop publishing and desktop video production, those who
were dissenting against the official version of events had, in some respects,
even greater outreach than the JFK researchers who were giving headaches to
those responsible for the official cover-up.
And the
advent of the Internet—though, as we said, still in its earliest days of
development—added another dimension that gave considerable outreach to the
critics of the government’s lies surrounding the Oklahoma tragedy.
But by the
time of the 9-11 disaster, the Internet was already holding sway, and it proved
to be a valuable asset in so many ways for those who were seeking to research
the story behind the story of 9-11 and to communicate their findings to the
American people and to the world.
As a direct
consequence, the powers-that-be—whomever you choose to identify as
such—realized that the Internet could prove to be a very real danger to their
continuing domination of the mass print and broadcast media in the United
States and around the globe.
As such,
the powers-that-be realized they simply had to find ways to be able to
circumvent the growing truth movement—a veritable tsunami that was piling up
and preparing to swamp the conspirators and the lies about 9-11 purveyed upon
the American people.
In addition
to this, another (very negative) aspect of the Internet must be considered.
While the
Internet has indeed been a major venue for truth—about 9-11 and so many other
matters—the Internet has also set the stage for a growing amount of
disinformation (both deliberate and unintentional that has had the effect of
negating the very good research on 9-11 and other issues that has been achieved
by sincere truth-seekers.
Ironically,
in this regard, the aforementioned Zionist propagandist, Jonathan Kay, has
summarized the matter well:
Elaborate conspiracy theories now can be
cobbled together literally overnight through the efforts of hundreds of scattered
dilettante conspiracists.
Another result is that conspiracists all around
the world now tend to focus on the same few dozen talking points that figure
prominently on the top websites.
While Kay
doesn’t say it (and he is essentially celebrating this point) the truth is that
what Kay calls, in this regard, the “intellectual balkanization,” that has
resulted means that if some bad information—that is, disinformation (deliberate
or otherwise)—has been inserted into the debate, that disinformation manages to
become an article of faith.
And the
result is that serious, fact-focused researchers—those who pay strict attention
to detail and try to correct the mistakes—often end up being accused of being
the disinformation specialists when, in fact, they are the real truth seekers
trying to discredit the disinformation!
Kay
assesses the situation in all-too-accurate terms:
The Internet has produced a radical
democratization of the conspiracist marketplace of ideas.
No longer does one have to spend years
researching and writing a book to attract attention: One can simply set up a blog,
or chime in on someone else’s, with some refinement of the existing collective
lore.
In fact, today’s conspiracists don’t even have
to read books—they can pick up all their talking points from Truther websites,
or, better yet, from Truther propaganda videos.
And the
problem is, as we’ve said, that these websites and videos that Kay refers to
sarcastically as the work of those whom he dismisses as “Truther” sources are
not always—in fact, often are not—very reliable sources at all, either as a
consequence of slip-shod research or simply the result of just bad writing that
conveys false ideas as fact.
What has
happened is that—just as Kay has said—many people have been propelled into what
Kay calls “paranoid echo chambers,” in which people repeat back to one
another—via email, via websites, in books and articles based on that
material—an array of misinformation and disinformation that adds nothing to
serious conspiracy inquiry and certainly does it a disservice (which is
something that Kay and others of similar mindset certainly like to see
happening).
Again, Kay
is all-too-unfortunately on the mark when he writes:
The
conspiracist’s network of enablers grows—often to such a point that it crowds
out the conspiracy theorist’s nonbelieving friends. The process resembles the
formation of an electronic cocoon that envelops a conspiracist with codependents.
Surrounded by an enabling group of the like-minded, he gradually embraces the
delusion that his movement has gained critical mass . . . .
The
consequence is that Kay is absolutely correct when he refers to the “dumbing
down effect” that is arising as a result of the growing world of Internet
conspiracy dabbling and he is very much again on target—all too much so—when he
suggests that modern-day conspiracy theorizing is something that many people
“fit in between video gaming and Facebook.”
In other
words, what Kay calls “conspiracism” is emerging, in many respects, as simply a
hobby, a new form of entertainment!
Many
people—and these are good people—just don’t realize that the world of
conspiracy research is not some game, but a deadly serious realm that
intersects with the very real world of high-level conspiracies shaping the
course of our future.
So the
bottom line truth is that while the Internet has been a valuable tool for
genuine truth-seekers, the Internet—by its very nature—has also become
(particularly in the wake of 9-11) as a considerable and important resource in
the dangerous high-tech arsenal of those who seek to manipulate and misinform
the public, most especially those who rely on the Internet as a source of
information about the very conspiracies that the real conspirators are engaged
in.
The 9-11
experience, so to speak, thus proved to be a very real lesson for those
responsible for 9-11 and its cover-up, for they were able to observe (and quite
carefully) the manner in which information relating to 9-11 emerged and then
circulated via email and other means of Internet communication, including
YouTube and other new formats known as “social media.”
And, for
the record, it has long been an article of faith—and a reasonable one—that in
actual preparation for the orchestration of 9-11, the conspirators had already
set in place more than a handful of individuals, websites and other means
charged with the evil task of “infiltrating” and manipulating and distorting
legitimate efforts to uncover the real truth about 9-11.
In fact, after
9-11, there emerged more than a few people who might be called “instant
internet celebrities” who became known as “9-11 truthers” but who were—from the
beginning—bought-and-paid-for assets of the high-level forces responsible for
9-11 in the first place.
An entire book
could be written about some of these characters, but that’s another matter for
another time. But suffice it to say, they made their influence felt (in one way
or another) and had a considerable impact in shaping not only the 9-11 truth
movement itself, but also by offering up opinions about other matters (various
and sundry) that also had the effect of delegitimizing very real research (some
of it based on years of study) that countered the intrigues of the global
elite.
Many of
these operatives spent much of their time putting out what could only be
described as downright “crazy” theories about 9-11 that redirected attention
away from sober, responsible research.
In other
instances, they specialized in cranking out often-reckless theories that were
quite easily refutable, therefore giving credence to the oft-heard claim from
the mainstream media that any and all other dissident 9-11 research was just as
silly and unreliable.
And in a
number of instances, there were several 9-11 “truthers” who, while pointing the
finger of blame at Israel, were (at the same time) engaging in other activity
that led many observers to believe that these individuals were “black
propaganda” operatives trying to bring discredit to those who believed Israel
was indeed responsible for 9-11.
Two such
individuals, Christopher Bollyn and Eric Hufschmid—whom many believe were
“ringers” inserted into the 9-11 truth movement from the beginning—ingratiated
themselves with American Free Press (having pretended to be enthusiastic about
my book Final Judgment) and, over a period of time, engaged in a concerted
effort to influence AFP’s coverage of 9-11—and not in a positive way.
Ultimately
AFP discovered that while Bollyn and Hufschmid supplied a lot of “good”
information, that data was mixed in with a variety of “bad” data, the
consequence of which was that many of the stories the two generated (working
hand-in-hand on a daily basis behind the scenes for well over a year) proved to
be of rather dubious value.
At one
juncture, Bollyn and Hufschmid tried to convince the editors of AFP that
outspoken 9-11 survivor, William Rodriguez—who had been honored by 9-11 truth
seekers all over the United States and around the world for his integrity—was
some sort of “Zionist agent.”
And despite
the fact that independently wealthy American philanthropist Jimmy Walter had
bankrolled speaking engagements by both Bollyn and Hufschmid, the dynamic duo
also spread the word that Walter—who spent millions of dollars of his own money
seeking to alert the public to 9-11 truth—was also a stooge for Israeli
interests.
For my own
part, I spent an entire week in Malaysia in the company of both Rodriguez and Walter
and I never saw any sign that they were working to advance Zionist interests in
any way, shape or form.
However,
considering the record of Bollyn and Hufschmid, I think it’s safe to say that
the same thing cannot be said about them.
Considering
all of this, more than a handful of 9-11 dissidents (including many who
believed Israel was behind 9-11) ultimately came to conclude Bollyn was
actually a disinformation agent using a perverse back-handed way of
discrediting AFP and those who believed the Mossad was responsible for 9-11.
Bollyn’s
critics correctly pointed out that Bollyn had a pattern of misquoting sources,
misinterpreting scientific information, and making assertions about certain
matters without any foundational authority.
The
consequence was that Bollyn’s disinformation gave ammunition to critics of
AFP’s contention that the Mossad was behind 9-11 and as such was
enthusiastically bandied about by Zionist propagandists seeking to undermine
AFP’s thesis even though the questionable material by Bollyn focused on
scientific data that had nothing whatsoever to do with the specific matter of
Mossad involvement in 9-11.
In the end,
after their deception was unmasked, Bollyn and Hufschmid launched a smear
campaign against AFP alleging that we were, too, were really “Zionist agents” trying
to cover up Mossad involvement in 9-11, an allegation preposterous on its face
to anyone familiar with AFP’s work. Bollyn even claimed that Mark Lane—the
anti-Zionist Jewish critic of Israel who pinpointed the CIA’s role in the JFK
assassination conspiracy—was a Zionist and a secret asset of the CIA!
Unfortunately—and
not unpredictably—a few naive folks actually believed these liars, especially
people new to the 9-11 truth movement who didn’t have access to the big
picture. However, when all was said and done, the romance between Bollyn and
Hufschmid came to a bitter end and the two began accusing one another of being
Zionist agents!
And the
strange outside possibility was that both of them could actually have been
right. After all, not all Zionist agents necessarily know the identities of the
others. That’s how complex the world of intelligence intrigue happens to be.
Hufschmid’s
own website devolved into a mish-mash of weird commentary (often referencing
sexual matters, especially human interaction with animals) and once even
included a nude photograph of Hufschmid, taken from the rear, ostensibly for
the purpose of explaining some “health” matter Hufschmid felt would interest
his readers.
That
Bollyn, an American, had spent time on an Israeli kibbutz and later married an
Israeli woman—who worked for Shin Bet, Israel’s domestic intelligence
agency—was a point many found telling. That his own sister was also married to
a Jew and had taken up residence in Israel was also considered somewhat
suspicious.
It’s always
been my suspicion (based on a variety of data too complicated to delve into
here) that Bollyn was a long-standing international free-lance intelligence
operative who, for at least a substantial part of his career, was working for
the Church of England, which—although many people don’t realize it—has always
been an arm of British intelligence, active in global intrigue. In fact, Bollyn
and his family have multiple “British” connections which also point toward that
conclusion.
And,
needless to say, the British Empire—which has long been under the control of
the Rothschild Dynasty—has always played a peculiar role in advancing Jewish
and Zionist interests, even going back to the days when the woman whom Bollyn
claims as an ancestor, Anne Boleyn, was a central player in a grand design that
disrupted the traditional role of the Roman Catholic Church in Britain and set
the stage for the rise of Jewish financial power in Britain in years to come.
(And that is a story in and of itself—worthy of a book that has yet to be
written.)
But for
those who are interested, an English patriot and critic of the New World order
with an abiding interest in 9-11 truth—and who does believe Israel was a key
player in that tragedy—has put together a remarkably detailed website (complete
with a fascinating variety of links and other valuable information) which
delves into the bizarre story of Bollyn and his erstwhile friend Hufschmid. See
http://www.takeourworldback.com for more.
In any
event, all of this having been said, it’s quite clear that the circumstances surrounding
9-11 gave Israel—along with other power players on the world stage—a new
understanding of how the Internet worked and how its resources could be
utilized (for better or for worse) in manipulating global opinion.
And as a
consequence, people in high places began working to lay forth a plan to ensure
that, in the future, the Internet could be used for their own benefit and to
undercut those—such as the 9-11 dissidents and other truth-seekers who
questioned “official” stories about such matters as the JFK assassination and
the Oklahoma bombing and other matters—who stood in opposition to the New World
Order agenda.
As we shall
see, this carefully-crafted endeavor had even further consequences when the
plan was skillfully put into actual working order in the wake of the Sandy Hook
shooting in Newtown, Connecticut and the Boston Marathon bombing that followed
not long afterward.
The
Internet, as a consequence, was no longer simply a venue for truth seekers to “get
the word out” about high-level cover-ups. Instead, it became a vehicle used by
the high-level conspirators to not only confuse the work of the truth seekers
but also to combat them by discrediting them through some of the most
manipulative means possible.
It’s a
story that has never been told before, but it is a story that must be told, if
real truth seekers are going to be able to deal with the big challenges that
lie ahead, particularly when confronted with propaganda and disinformation
designed to frustrate their efforts to combat the very real forces of Evil that
lie behind the New World Order.
Let us then
move forward and examine this extraordinary conspiracy in a way that it has
never before been dissected. It’s a shocker . . .
“And the LORD spake unto Moses saying, “Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them the following–When ye are passed over the Jordan river into the land of Canaan, ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and tear down all their high places…And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein, for I have given you the land to possess it…But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which shall remain shall be pricks in your eyes and thorns in your sides and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell…” –Book of Numbers 33:50-56
In the latest coughing fit laying bare the sickness of soul infecting and guiding the very existence of the Jewish state, one of Israel’s largest political parties has introduced a bill in the Knesset outlawing freedom of speech when it comes to commemorating the other Holocaust about which no one seems to know anything, meaning what was done to the Palestinians 60+ years ago by the Jews in an event known as “al Nakbah”.
Introduced by MK Alex Miller of Israel Beiteinu (”Our Land Israel“) the bill is set for deliberation this week in a Knesset dominated by radical, messianic, violence-prone members of both the aforementioned IB party and Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud. In the interest of covering up and then “wiping off the map” of history Israel’s 6-decade legacy of racism, genocide and terrorism against the Palestinian people, the law is but one more manifestation of what is now the all-too-typical Judeo-centric paradigm so much a part of the way Jews see themselves in relation to the rest of the world’s peoples ever since the days of Abraham and Moses.
In effect, the law criminalizes any publicly-demonstrated mourning surrounding the event taking place 61 years ago when as many as 750,000 Palestinians–Christian and Muslim alike–were “persuaded” by Jewish thugs working for terrorist organizations such as Irgun and the Stern Gang to succumb to a pre-planned program of ethnic cleansing by relocating themselves to all the luxury, opulence and comfort of tented outdoor refugee camps scattered throughout Gaza, Jordan, the West Bank and Lebanon.

« Au XIXème siècle, la science a découvert que notre système nerveux était parcouru par des forces électriques. Elle avait raison. Mais lorsqu’elle a cru, lorsque les chercheurs croient que la force nerveuse qui fait partie de nous, qui est la base de notre vie mentale, a quoi que ce soit à voir avec des courants électriques, ils ont tort. Car les courants électriques sont des forces qui ont été déposées en nous par cet être que je viens de décrire, ils ne font pas du tout partie de notre être : nous portons effectivement aussi des courants électriques en nous, mais ils sont purement de nature ahrimanienne.
Ces entités hautement intelligentes, mais d’une intelligence purement méphistophélique, et d’une volonté plus apparentée à la nature que cela ne peut être dit de la volonté humaine, ont décidé un jour, de leur propre volonté, de ne pas vouloir vivre dans le monde auquel les dieux pleins de sagesse de la hiérarchie supérieure les avaient destinées à vivre. Pour conquérir la terre, elles ont besoin de corps ; n’ayant pas de corps propre, elles utilisent le corps humain autant qu’elles le peuvent, puisque l’âme humaine ne peut pas complètement remplir le corps humain.

« Les milieux qui veulent introduire l’Antichrist en le faisant passer pour le Christ visent à exploiter ce qui peut agir notamment au moyen des forces les plus matérielles, mais qui, au moyen de ces forces les plus matérielles, agit justement de manière spirituelle. Ces mouvements visent surtout à exploiter l’électricité, et en particulier le magnétisme terrestre, pour produire des effets sur toute la terre… On lèvera le voile sur ce mystère. Les Américains détiendront le secret d’utiliser le magnétisme terrestre dans sa dualité des magnétismes nord et sud, pour envoyer sur toute la terre des forces de domination qui agissent sur un plan spirituel […] Je ne peux, sur ces questions, donner rien de plus, pour l’instant, que de légères indications : il existe une ligne du ciel le long de laquelle des entités spirituelles exercent continuellement leur action ; il suffit de mettre ces entités spirituelles au service de l’existence terrestre pour lever le voile sur ce mystère du magnétisme terrestre […]

Les mystères spirituels en vertu desquels ce qui est cosmique peut, sur terre – à l’aide des forces doubles du magnétisme, le positif et le négatif – traverser ce qui est spirituel, proviennent des Gémeaux ; ce sont des forces de midi. Déjà dans l’Antiquité, on savait qu’il s’agissait là de quelque chose de cosmique, et les scientifiques savent bien, aujourd’hui, sur un plan exotérique, qu’il existe d’une manière ou d’une autre, dans le zodiaque, derrière les Gémeaux, un magnétisme positif et un magnétisme négatif. Il s’agira alors de paralyser ce qui doit être tiré du cosmos par la manifestation de la dualité, de le paralyser de manière égoïste, matérialiste, au moyen des forces qui affluent vers l’humanité depuis les Gémeaux, et qui peuvent être entièrement mises au service du Double.
Pour d’autre confréries qui veulent surtout passer à côté du Mystère du Golgotha, il s’agira de tirer parti de la double nature de l’homme, cette double nature qui comprend, tel que l’homme est entré dans la cinquième période postatlantéenne, d’un côté l’homme, mais en l’homme aussi sa nature animale inférieure. Car l’homme est vraiment un centaure : il contient la nature animale inférieure astralement, et ne contient l’humanité qu’au-dessus, pour ainsi dire, de cette nature animale. Du fait de cette action concourante de la double nature en lui, il existe aussi un dualisme de forces – et c’est ce dualisme de forces qui sera davantage utilisé du côté oriental, indien, par certaines confréries égoïstes… et ce dualisme-là emploie les forces qui agissent depuis le Sagittaire. »

« Mais il y a un lieu à la surface de la terre qui présente la plus grande parenté avec ces forces [ahrimaniques]. Lorsque l’homme s’y rend, il entre dans leur domaine d’influence ; dès qu’il le quitte, il n’en est plus ainsi, car il s’agit de caractéristiques géographiques, non pas ethnographiques ou nationales, mais purement géographiques. La région où ce qui afflue depuis le bas exerce la plus grande influence sur le Double est la région de la terre où la plupart des montagnes ne sont pas orientées transversalement d’Ouest en Est, mais où les montagnes sont principalement orientées du Nord au Sud – car cela est également en lien avec ces forces – et où l’on est proche du pôle nord magnétique. C’est la région où, sous l’effet des conditions extérieures, se développe avant tout une parenté avec la nature méphistophélique ahrimanienne [satanique]. Et beaucoup, dans l’évolution de la terre qui poursuit sa marche en avant, est dû à cette parenté. L’homme n’est pas en droit, aujourd’hui, de passer par l’évolution de la terre en aveugle ; il doit percer à jour ces liens entre les choses. L'Europe ne pourra établir des rapports justes avec l’Amérique que si ces circonstances peuvent être percées à jour, que si l’on sait quelles limitations d’ordre géographique viennent de là-bas. Sinon, si l’Europe continue à rester aveugle à ce propos, il en ira de cette pauvre Europe comme il en alla de la Grèce par rapport à Rome.
IL NE FAUT PAS QUE LE MONDE SOIT GÉOGRAPHIQUEMENT AMÉRICANISÉ […] CAR LES EFFORTS DE L’AMÉRIQUE VISENT À TOUT MÉCANISER, À TOUT FAIRE ENTRER DANS LE DOMAINE DU PUR NATURALISME, À EFFACER PEU À PEU DE LA SURFACE DE LA TERRE LA CULTURE DE L’EUROPE. »

« Les peuples anglo-américains se prolongeront comme quelque

anglo-américaine. Partant de là, l'égoïsme couvrira toute la Terre. Toutes les
inventions qui recouvrent la Terre d'un réseau d'égoïsme viennent d'Angleterre
et d'Amérique. A partir de là-bas donc, toute la Terre sera recouverte d'une
toile d'égoïsme, de mal. Mais une petite colonie se formera à l'est comme la
semence d'une vie nouvelle pour l'avenir. La culture anglo-américaine consume
la culture de l'Europe [...] mais la race elle-même va à sa ruine. Elle porte
en elle la disposition à être la race du Mal. » (31 oct. 1905, Éléments d'ésotérisme)
« Le matérialisme a fait sombrer notre savoir à un niveau honteux, comme cela n’était encore jamais arrivé sur la Terre. Le pire de ce qui est arrivé à notre époque est de confondre l’amour avec la sexualité. C’est là la pire expression du matérialisme, la plus diabolique de notre époque. Ce qui se fait dans ce domaine est ce dont on devra se débarrasser en premier lieu. La sexualité et l’amour n’ont rien de commun. La sexualité n’a rien à voir avec l’amour pur, originel. Notre savoir a commis une infamie en publiant toute une littérature qui s’occupe de mettre en rapport ces deux choses qui n’ont aucun rapport. » (Rudolf Steiner) « Nous avons vu que, lorsque l’homme perce le voile de la nature et pénètre derrière ce voile, il rencontre des êtres destructeurs : les êtres ahrimaniens. Dans l’ordre du monde, ces êtres sont tout d’abord des ennemis acharnés de la nature humaine terrestre. Lorsqu’on a la faiblesse de se lier à eux – ce qui peut arriver comme je vous l’ai montré – on se lie à des ennemis de l’homme terrestre. On s’allie vraiment à des ennemis de l’homme terrestre. Et cette alliance est grandement favorisée par un certain rapport de l’homme avec le cosmos.
Les entités que l’on découvre ainsi derrière le voile de la nature sont intelligentes. Elles ont leur forme d’intelligence. Je vous ai déjà parlé de l’intelligence humaine. Eh bien, ces êtres-là pensent, eux aussi ; ils ont leur intelligence ; ils ressentent, même si, là encore, c’est autrement que les hommes. Ils accomplissent certains actes qui se manifestent extérieurement dans des phénomènes naturels, mais dont la véritable nature est derrière le voile de la nature.
Or il existe une singulière affinité entre quelque chose en l’homme et les plus hautes facultés de ces êtres. Je voudrais essayer d’expliciter cela. Lorsque l’homme qui franchit le seuil du monde spirituel s’approche de ces êtres – qu’il ait l’impression d’entrer en enfer ou qu’il se représente cela autrement n’est pas la question ; ce qui importe, c’est de se faire de cette expérience une idée juste – cet homme doit d’abord être frappé par la haute intelligence, l’extraordinaire intelligence de ces êtres. Ils sont extrêmement sagaces et avisés. C’est ainsi que la force de leur âme se manifeste. Mais ces forces d’âme qui, chez eux, sont des forces supérieures, sont apparentées aux forces de la nature inférieure de l’homme. Ce que les pulsions sensuelles sont en l’homme, ce sont, chez ces êtres, les forces supérieures qui en imposent tellement. Il existe donc une certaine parenté entre les forces les plus basses de l’homme et les forces les plus hautes de ces êtres. Voilà pourquoi, lorsqu’on pénètre dans ce monde, ces forces cherchent à s’identifier aux forces inférieures de l’homme ; elles aiguillonnent alors ses instincts de destruction et de haine ou d’autres pulsions du même genre, parce que les esprits en question font monter vers eux ce qui est bas chez l’homme. Les forces qui sont chez eux plus élevées agissent à travers les forces inférieures de l’homme. On ne peut pas vraiment s’allier avec eux sans avilir sa propre nature en développant de violents appétits sensuels. Voilà un fait dont il faut tenir compte, car il montre bien comment nous devons nous représenter notre rapport avec le cosmos. Il y a dans notre nature humaine de bas instincts. Mais il s’agit là de forces qui ne sont de bas instincts que dans l’homme. Dès que ces êtres spirituels disposent de ces mêmes forces, ces instincts sont chez eux des forces supérieures. Mais ces êtres spirituels agissent toujours dans notre nature : ils sont toujours en nous […]
Quand nous pénétrons d’abord dans le monde sans avoir la moindre notion de tout ce que savent les initiés – c’est-à-dire qu’il existe un monde spirituel aussi bien derrière la nature que derrière la vie de l’âme – et quand nous imprégnons notre vouloir d’idéaux élevés, quand nous purifions ainsi notre vouloir en le spiritualisant, ce vouloir ennobli se lie aux facultés inférieures des êtres auxquels nous nous lions alors. Il y a, en effet, un mystérieux lien d’attraction entre les aspects les plus nobles de notre volonté et les pulsions et les besoins inférieurs de ces entités.

Les plus puissants et anciens êtres démoniaques: les Asuras:
“Ce qui sera tombé au pouvoir des Asuras sera irrémédiablement perdu. Point n'est nécessaire que l'homme tout entier devienne leur proie, mais des morceaux de l'esprit humain seront découpés par les puissances asuriques.
A notre époque, les Asuras s'annoncent par l'état d'esprit qui sévit, état d'esprit s'attachant à la seule vie des sens, oubliant les véritables entités et les mondes spirituels. Dire actuellement que les Asuras induisent l’homme en tentation est quelque peu théorique. Pour le moment, ils font miroiter l’image trompeuse que le "Je" n'est qu'un produit du monde physique, ils lui font miroiter une sorte de matérialisme théorique. Mais ultérieurement, ils obscurciront la vue des hommes au sujet des êtres et des puissances spirituels ; ceci se manifestera de plus en plus par une débauche croissante, par une sensualité effrénée envahissant la terre. L'homme ne saura plus rien et ne voudra plus rien savoir d’un monde spirituel. Il enseignera toujours plus que les idées morales les plus élevées ne sont qu'une accommodation des pulsions animales. Il ne se contentera pas d'enseigner que la pensée humaine n'est qu'une modification d'une faculté animale, d'enseigner que l’homme, tant par sa constitution que par tout son être, descend de l'animal, mais prendra ces considérations au sérieux et vivra conformément à elles. Actuellement, personne ne vit encore en accord avec l’idée que l'homme, par essence, descend de l'animal, mais une telle conception règnera absolument, amenant les humains à vivre comme les bêtes, à s'enfoncer dans les pulsions et les passions animales. Et bien des choses qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de caractériser ici, qui se déroulent déjà dans les grandes villes sous forme d'abominables orgies de sensualité dépravée, nous font déjà entrevoir l'infernale lueur grotesque de ces esprits que nous appelons Asuras.”

(17 oct. 1905, Éléments d'ésotérisme)
Le culte mexicain du Taotl et la domination des masses sans âme dans un monde de machines:
Like a single central power whom all followed
and obeyed, a kind of spectral spirit, a descendant of the “Great Spirit” of
Atlantis, was revered. This spirit had gradually assumed an ahrimanic character
because he still worked with forces that had been right in Atlantis or were
already ahrimanic there.
When the Atlantean spoke of his “Great Spirit,”
he expressed it, as we have seen, in a word that sounded something like the
word “Tao,” which is still preserved in China. An ahrimanic, caricatured
counterpart appeared in the West as opponent of the “Great Spirit Tao” but he
was still connected with him. He worked in such a way that he could only be
made visible through atavistic, visionary perception but whenever they desired
his presence, he always showed himself to those persons connected with the
widespread mysteries of this cult so they could receive his instructions and
commands. This spirit was called by a name that sounded something like Taotl.
Taotl was thus an ahrimanic distortion of the “Great Spirit” — a mighty being
and one who did not descend to physical incarnation. A great many men were
initiated into the mysteries of Taotl but the initiation was of a completely
ahrimanic character. It had a quite definite purpose and goal, which was to
rigidify and mechanize all earthly life, including that of humans, to such a
degree that a special luciferic planet, which has already been referred to in
these studies, could be founded above earthly life. The souls of men could then
be drawn out to it, by force and pressure.
As we described yesterday, what the ahrimanic
powers were striving for in the civilization of Rome was only a feeble echo of
what those who, under the leadership of Taotl, set out to attain, and this in
much fuller and wider measure by means of the most frightful magical arts. The
goal they aimed to achieve was to make the whole earth a realm of death, in
which everything possible would be done to kill out independence and every
inner impulse of the soul. In the mysteries of Taotl the forces were to be
acquired that would enable men to set up a completely mechanized earthly realm.
To this end, one had, above all, to know the great cosmic secrets that relate
to what works and lives in the universe and reveals its activities in earthly
existence. You see, this wisdom of the cosmos is fundamentally in its wording,
always the same, because truth is always the same. The point is, however,
whether or not it is received in such a way that it is employed rightly.
Now this cosmic wisdom, which was intrinsically
not evil but held holy secrets hidden within it, was carefully concealed by the
initiates of Taotl. It was communicated to no one who had not been initiated
correctly by the Taotl method. When a candidate had been initiated in the
correct way, the teaching concerning the secrets of the cosmos was then
imparted to him. Now, it was necessary for him to receive these secrets through
initiation in a quite definite mood of soul. He had to feel in himself the
inclination and desire to apply them on earth in such a way that they would set
up that mechanistic rigid realm of death. It was thus that he had to receive
the secrets. Nor were they communicated except on one special condition. The
wisdom was imparted to no one who had not previously committed a murder in a
particular manner. Moreover, only certain secrets were communicated to the
candidate after the first murder, but further and higher secrets were imparted
to him after he had committed others.
These murders, however, had to be committed
under quite definite conditions. The one to be murdered was laid out on a
structure that was reached by one or two steps running along each side. This
scaffold-like structure, a kind of catafalque, was rounded off above and when
the victim was laid upon it, he was bent strongly back. This special way of
being bound to the scaffold forced his stomach outward so that with one cut,
which the initiate had been prepared to perform, it could be cut out.
This kind of murder engendered definite
feelings in the initiate. Sensations were aroused that made him capable of
using the wisdom later imparted to him in the way that has been intimated
above. When the stomach had been excised, it was offered to the god Taotl,
again with special ceremonies. The fact that the initiates of these mysteries
lived for the quite specific purpose that I have indicated to you, imparted a
definite direction to their feelings. When the candidates to be initiated had
matured on this path and had come to experience its inner meaning, they then
learned the nature of the mutual interaction between the one who had been
murdered and the one who had been initiated. Through the murder, the victim was
to be prepared in his soul to strive upward to the luciferic realm, whereas the
candidate for initiation was to obtain the wisdom to mould this earthly world
in such a way that souls would be driven out of it. Through the fact that a
connection was formed between the murdered and the initiated — one cannot say
“murderer,” but “initiated” — it was made possible for the initiated to be
taken with the other soul; that is, the initiated could himself forsake the
earth at the right moment.
These mysteries, as you will readily admit, are
of the most revolting kind. Indeed, they are only in accord with a conception
that can be called ahrimanic in the fullest sense. Nevertheless, certain
feelings and experiences were to be created on earth by their means. Now,
naturally, the evolution of the earth would not continue if, over a
considerable part of its surface, mankind and an interest in mankind should
completely die out. The interest in humanity, however, did not quite die out
even there because other and different mysteries were founded that were
designed to counteract the excesses of the Taotl mysteries.
(…)
So, in the cultural impulses that came over
from the East, there is clearly and yet to be perceived what was intended to be
brought to Europe as an aftermath of the mysteries of the Great Spirit.
Another part of the mystery culture of ancient
Atlantis made its way, not toward the East, but toward the West, to the lands
of America discovered later on by the Europeans. There the more ahrimanic part
of the irregular post-Atlantean culture lived itself out. Whereas the luciferic
part lived on more in Asia, the ahrimanic part worked more in America. Within
America impulses were to arise that could then percolate from the West. Just as
those other impulses could work from the East, so these could infiltrate from
the West in order that the ahrimanic attack might be made in the fifth
post-Atlantean epoch.
Hence, in the West, the more ahrimanic side of
the outlived Atlantean mystery culture was promulgated. This led to the
establishment of mysteries that inevitably make a most repulsive impression
upon those who have grown up in the tender culture of modern times, and do not
like to hear the truth but only blessedness, as it is often called. These
post-Atlantean mysteries developed especially on the soil of Mexico. Mysteries were
established there, but they spread over a large part of the America the
Europeans had not yet discovered. If their impulses and workings had been
victorious, these mysteries would have driven souls away from the earth. By
this means the service performed by Ahriman, the squeezing out of the lemons,
would have become effective. The earth would gradually have become desolate,
having upon it only the forces of death, whereas any living souls would have
departed to found another planet under the leadership of Lucifer and Ahriman.
In order to execute the ahrimanic part of this
task, it was necessary for the priests of those ahrimanic Atlantean mysteries
to acquire faculties possessing the highest degrees of control and mastery over
all the forces of death in earthly working. These forces would have made the
earth; together with physical man — for the souls were to depart — into a
purely mechanistic realm, a great dead realm in which no ego could have a
place. These faculties would have had to be connected also with mastery of the
mechanistic element in everything living, of the mechanistic elements in all
life. For this reason these mysteries had to be instituted in a truly devilish
form because such forces as would have been needed for the powerful aims of Ahriman
can only arise when initiations of a special kind are attained. Such were these
initiations of the ahrimanic post-Atlantean era in America. Everyone who was to
attain a certain degree of knowledge was made to realize that this knowledge is
acquired through certain faculties of perception that can only be engendered
through an act of murder. Thus nobody whom had not committed murder was
admitted to a certain degree of this initiation. The murder was performed under
special circumstances. Steps led up to a kind of catafalque, a scaffold-like
structure. The one to be murdered was tied to this and his body bent in such a
way that his stomach could be excised with a single cut. This operation, the
excision of the stomach, had to be performed with great dexterity. Certain
experiences arose from the act of having cut into the living organism with such
consummate skill, and under such special conditions. These experiences had to
be acquired and through them a certain degree of knowledge concerning the
mechanization of the earth could then be attained. Every time higher stages of
initiation were to be reached, further murders had to be committed.
This cult was dedicated to the successor, the
son of the Great Spirit, in the form he had assumed in America, and who was
designated by a sound that approximates Taotl. Taotl is an ahrimanic distortion
of the successor of Tao. This being, Taotl did not appear in a physical body
but only in an etheric form. His arts, which were essentially impulses for the
mechanization of earthly culture and of all earthly life, were acquired through
these initiations I have described to you.
Now these initiations had a definite purpose.
As has been said, the initiate acquired actual powers of black magic, the
application of which would have led to the mechanization of the culture of the
earth and to the expulsion of all egos, so that the bodies born would no longer
have been capable of bearing an ego. But as forces in the world are in
perpetual interaction, he who possessed such powers would also have become
earth-bound; the initiate himself would have been permanently fettered to the
earth forces. His act bound him to forces of which you will be able to learn
something tomorrow at the performance of the scene from Faust, if you will follow
attentively what the Lemurs represent. By these practices the initiate united
himself with the earth forces and with everything that causes death on the
earth. Thereby, he would himself have lost his soul. He saved himself from this
fate by bringing it about that, as a result of the excision of the stomach, the
soul of the one whom he murdered had lost his desire to come to the earth again
and also the soul of the victim was enabled, through the intention of the
murderer, to draw the murderer's soul into the realm that was to be founded
beyond the earth. The soul of the initiated murderer was thus also to be drawn
into the kingdom of Lucifer and Ahriman.
(…)
The problem of natural urges and impulses
transforms itself into the problem of happiness or prosperity, which assumes a
definite character. Hence in the fifth post-Atlantean epoch, especially in the
culture of the West, you find strivings in connection with the problem of
prosperity, strivings directed to the creation of prosperity in life. Such striving
is influenced by the forces I have described. Investigations are made, for
example, into what can be done in order that the life of human beings on earth
may be as happy and prosperous as possible. The establishment of earthly
prosperity becomes an ideal. I do not say that ahrimanic forces alone are at
work here; the good progressive forces are also present.
Thought about happiness and prosperity is, of
course, quite justified. But under the influence of Ahriman it has assumed a
certain character as a result of a really devilish tenet. This tenet defines
the good in such a way that the good is a said to manifest actually through
happiness or prosperity, through the happiness indeed of the greatest number,
and connected therewith is the misery of the minority, just as if one were to
describe an organism by suggesting that it develops only to the knees and dies
off from there down. In such identification of happiness with the good, with
virtue, there is an ahrimanic impulse. The Greeks, as represented by their
greatest individuals, were impervious to such identification of the concept of
prosperity with that of the good. But ahrimanic influences produced a mentality
in humanity in the fifth post-Atlantean epoch that seeks for the good in
prosperity, in happiness.
(…)
In the West there is the danger of becoming
enchained within the life of the senses, whereby this life would become
egoless. For if prosperity alone were to be established on the earth, the ego
would never dwell there. If the good could only be established by the spread of
prosperity over the earth, a state of things would arise such as came to pass in
old Atlantis. In the middle period of Atlantean culture, too, great impulses
were given that would have led to a state of prosperity in their further
course. In the form and effects of what men first felt as an impetus of the
good, they perceived a vista of prosperity, and so they gave themselves up to
prosperity, devoted themselves wholly to it. The earth had to be purged of
Atlantean culture because men had preserved from the good the element of
prosperity alone. In the post-Atlantean era, Ahriman strives by direct means to
institute a culture of mere prosperity. This would mean pressing out the lemon,
the doing away with it! Egos would no longer be able to live if prosperity were
the only aim pursued by culture. In short, prosperity and the good, prosperity
and virtue are not concepts that can be substituted for one another.
We are gazing here into profound secrets of
life. A justified element in the founding of culture, an element that
inevitably leads to a certain form of prosperity among men, is so distorted
that prosperity per se is set up as the goal.(…)
À propos d'êtres démoniaques à l'aspect reptilien:
(26 dec 1908, Métamorphose de la conscience au cours des âges)
We have passed through very different forms before developing into what
we are today. However, what we have overcome and cast forth appears in a
quite distinct, external form. In order to estrange ourselves from our
giant power, we had to cast forth our giant shapes and overcome them,
refining our forces and raising them to the intellectual soul and the
consciousness soul. There are indeed beings who have remained at the
stage of the rough forces. Wherever something evil appears and has to be
overcome, something that has remained stationary on the astral plane,
it always appears as a “dragon” or something similar; this is none other
than the grotesque form, transformed in the spiritual world, of what
human beings had to change and cast forth from themselves.
(26 dec. 1908, The Poetry and Meaning of Fairy Tales)
(28 mars 1911, L'événement du Christ)
(16 oct 1905, Éléments d'ésotérisme)
Already on the Old Moon man had some slight power of using both his
front limbs for the purpose of grasping, so that now the time came for
assuming the upright posture. His other living companions were, in the
Lemurian Age, of the nature of reptiles; animals of grotesque shapes who
have left no traces behind them. The ichthyosaurs and so on are
descendants of these animals. It is a fact that at that time the earth
was inhabited by beings reptilian in character; human bodies too were
reptile-like. When eventually this reptilian human being assumed the
upright posture, the formation of the head, quite open in front, out of
which gushed a fiery cloud, became visible. This gave rise to the tales
about the winged serpent, about the dragon. Such was man's grotesque
form at that time, reptile-like. The Guardian of the Threshold, the
lower nature of man, frequently appears in a form of this kind. It
represents the lower nature with the open formation of the head. At that
time, the union took place between these forms on the earth and the
other beings already described. The astral body with the head formation
united with the winged-serpent body with its fiery opening. It was the
fructification of the maternal earth with the paternal spirit. In this
way there proceeded the fructification with the Manas forces. The lower
astral body merged with the higher astral body. A great part of the
astral body, as it then was, fell away. One portion formed the lower
parts of the human astral body, and the other newly acquired astral
body, connected with the head, united with the upper parts of the human
being. What was then peeled off abandoned this astral body which was
bound up with the form of the winged-serpent; it could no longer have
any further development on the Earth. It formed, as a conglomerate
substance, the astral sphere of the moon, the so-called eighth sphere.
(50) The moon actually provides shelter for astral beings which have
come into existence through the fact that man has thrown something off.

Les êtres démoniaques souterrains qui veulent conquérir notre monde et remplacer l'être humain:
Cela se passe ainsi : peu de temps avant que nous ne naissions, un autre
être spirituel, nous dirions aujourd’hui selon notre terminologie, un
être ahrimanien, s’introduit en nous. Il est tout autant en nous que
notre propre âme. Ces entités qui vivent leur vie du fait qu’elles
utilisent les hommes eux-mêmes pour pouvoir exister dans la sphère où
elles veulent se trouver, ont une intelligence exceptionnellement élevée
et une volonté très fortement développée, mais aucune sensibilité,
aucune humanité ; elles n’ont pas les forces du cœur humain. – Et nous
traversons ainsi la vie en ayant notre âme et un tel double, qui est
plus intelligent, beaucoup plus intelligent que nous, mais qui a une
intelligence méphistophélique, une intelligence ahrimanienne, et en
plus, une volonté ahrimanienne, une volonté très forte, une volonté qui
est beaucoup plus proche des forces de la nature que notre volonté
humaine, laquelle est régulée par notre cœur.
Au XIXe siècle, la
science a découvert que notre système nerveux était parcouru par des
forces électriques. Elle avait raison. Mais lorsqu’elle a cru, lorsque
les chercheurs croient que la force nerveuse qui fait partie de nous,
qui est la base de notre vie mentale, a quoi que ce soit à voir avec des
courants électriques, ils ont tort. Car les courants électriques sont
les forces qui ont été déposées en nous par cet être que je viens de
décrire, ils ne font pas du tout partie de notre être : nous portons
effectivement aussi des courants électriques en nous, mais ils sont
purement de nature ahrimanienne.
Ces entités hautement
intelligentes, mais d’une intelligence purement méphistophélique, et
d’une volonté plus apparentée à la nature que cela ne peut être dit de
la volonté humaine, ont décidé un jour, de leur propre volonté, de ne
pas vouloir vivre dans le monde auquel les dieux pleins de sagesse de la
hiérarchie supérieure les avaient destinées à vivre. Pour conquérir la
terre, elles ont besoin de corps ; n’ayant pas de corps propre, elles
utilisent le corps humain autant qu’elles le peuvent, puisque l’âme
humaine ne peut pas complètement remplir le corps humain.
Ces
entités peuvent donc, compte tenu de la manière dont se développe le
corps humain, s’introduire dans celui-ci à un moment donné avant que la
personne ne naisse, et elles nous accompagnent, en restant en dessous du
seuil de notre conscience. (…)
De cela aussi, dont je parle
maintenant, certaines confréries sont au courant depuis longtemps ;
elles connaissent très bien ces choses et n’en ont pas fait part à
l’humanité – une fois de plus, nous ne voulons pas examiner de quel
droit. Aujourd’hui, la situation est telle qu’il est impossible de ne
pas munir peu à peu les hommes de telles notions dont ils ont besoin
après avoir franchi la porte de la mort. Car tout ce que l’homme vit
ici, y compris ce qu’il vit en deçà du seuil de la conscience, il en a
besoin après la mort, parce qu’il doit voir rétrospectivement cette vie
et que, dans sa vision rétrospective, cette vie doit lui être tout à
fait compréhensible, et que c’est la pire des choses s’il ne le peut
pas. Mais on n’a pas de concepts suffisants pour comprendre
rétrospectivement cette vie si l’on ne peut pas jeter un éclairage sur
un être qui prend une telle part à notre vie comme le fait cet être
ahrimanien, qui prend possession de nous avant notre naissance, qui est
toujours là, et fait son théâtre devant nous, dans le subconscient, si
nous ne pouvons pas toujours et encore jeter une lumière sur lui. Car la
sagesse devient lumière après la mort. Or ces êtres sont, en tout état
de cause, d’une très grande importance pour la vie humaine, et la
connaissance de ces êtres devra peu à peu venir aux hommes, et elle leur
viendra.
Seulement, elle devra leur venir de la bonne manière ;
cette connaissance ne doit pas, par exemple, être seulement répandue
dans le monde par ces sociétés occultes qui en font une question de
pouvoir et qui veulent, par là, accroître leur propre pouvoir, et elle
ne doit surtout pas continuer à être soigneusement protégée pour
accroître le pouvoir de certaines confréries qui agissent égoïstement.
L’humanité aspire à un savoir universel, et ce savoir doit être diffusé.
Car il ne peut plus être salutaire, à l’avenir, que des confréries
occultes puissent utiliser de telles choses pour étendre leur pouvoir.
Les
hommes devront de plus en plus être gagnés, dans les siècles à venir,
par la connaissance de ces entités. Ils devront de plus en plus savoir,
dans les siècles à venir, qu’ils portent en eux un tel double, qu’ils
portent en eux un double méphistophélique, ahrimanien. Il faut que les
hommes le sachent. Il est vrai qu’aujourd’hui, l’être humain développe
déjà toute une multitude de concepts, mais qui au fond ne peuvent
aboutir, parce que l’homme, malgré tout, ne sait encore rien en faire de
juste. L’homme, dis-je, développe aujourd’hui des concepts qui ne
pourront être établis sur une base juste qu’à partir du moment où ils
seront rapprochés de la réalité qui leur est sous-jacente. (…)
Les
tâches se répartissent donc dans l’organisme humain, il est
différencié. De même, notre Terre est elle aussi différenciée. Elle
n’est absolument pas un être qui rayonnerait partout la même chose sur
ses habitants, mais ce sont des rayonnements très différents qui
remontent vers les régions les plus diverses de la terre. Il existe là
différentes forces : magnétiques, électriques, mais aussi des forces qui
remontent beaucoup plus dans le domaine du vivant et qui influencent
l’homme de la manière la plus diversifiée aux différents points de la
Terre, c’est-à-dire qui influencent l’homme différemment selon la
configuration géographique. (…)
Ce que le Russe aime dans sa
terre, ce dont il s’imprègne, lui donne certaines faiblesses, mais
surtout aussi une certaine capacité à surmonter la nature de ce double
dont j’ai parlé tout à l’heure. C’est pourquoi le Russe sera appelé à
fournir les impulsions les plus importantes à l’époque où cette nature
du double devra définitivement être combattue, dans la sixième période
de civilisation post-atlantéenne.
Mais il y a un lieu à la
surface de la terre qui présente la plus grande parenté avec ces forces.
Lorsque l’homme s’y rend, il entre dans leur domaine d’influence ; dès
qu’il le quitte, il n’en est plus ainsi, car il s’agit de
caractéristiques géographiques, non pas ethnographiques ou nationales,
mais purement géographiques. La région où ce qui afflue depuis le bas
exerce la plus grande influence sur le double, et où cela se communique
donc aussi de nouveau à la terre, du fait que cela s’apparente le plus
chez le double à ce qui émane de lui, est la région de la terre où la
plupart des montagnes ne sont pas orientées transversalement, d’Ouest en
Est, mais où les montagnes sont principalement orientées du Nord au Sud
– car cela est également en lien avec ces forces – et où l’on est
proche du pôle nord magnétique.
C’est la région où, sous l’effet
des conditions extérieures, se développe avant tout une parenté avec la
nature méphistophélique ahrimanienne. Et beaucoup, dans l’évolution de
la Terre qui poursuit sa marche en avant, est dû à cette parenté.
L’homme n’est pas en droit, aujourd’hui, de passer par l’évolution de la
Terre en aveugle ; il doit percer à jour ces liens entre les choses.
L’Europe ne pourra établir des rapports justes avec l’Amérique que si
ces circonstances peuvent être percées à jour, que si l’on sait quelles
limitations d’ordre géographique viennent de là-bas. Sinon, si l’Europe
continue à rester aveugle à ce propos, il en ira de cette pauvre Europe
comme il en alla de la Grèce par rapport à Rome. Il ne faut pas qu’il en
soit ainsi ; il ne faut pas que le monde soit géographiquement
américanisé.
Mais ce point demande tout d’abord à être compris.
Les choses ne doivent pas être prises aussi peu au sérieux qu’elles le
sont fréquemment aujourd’hui. Car voyez-vous, les choses reposent sur
des fondements profonds, et il faut aujourd’hui des connaissances, et
pas seulement des sympathies et des antipathies, pour pouvoir prendre
position dans le contexte dans lequel l’humanité actuelle est placée
d’une manière si tragique. Ce sont là les choses que nous pouvons
discuter encore plus en détail ici ; dans les conférences publiques,
elles ne peuvent qu’être évoquées. Hier, j’ai attiré l’attention {45}
sur la nécessité que ce qui est appelé science de l’esprit pénètre
vraiment aussi dans les idées sociales et politiques. Car les efforts de
l’Amérique visent à tout mécaniser, à tout faire entrer dans le domaine
du pur naturalisme, à effacer peu à peu de la surface de la terre la
culture de l’Europe. Elle ne peut pas faire autrement. (…)
Les milieux qui veulent introduire l’Antichrist en le faisant passer
pour le Christ visent à exploiter ce qui peut agir notamment au moyen
des forces les plus matérielles, mais qui, au moyen de ces forces les
plus matérielles, agit justement de manière spirituelle. Ces mouvements
visent surtout à exploiter l’électricité, et notamment le magnétisme
terrestre, pour produire des effets sur toute la terre. Je vous ai
montré {194} comment, dans ce que j’ai appelé le double de l’homme,
montent les forces de la terre. On lèvera le voile sur ce mystère. Les
Américains détiendront le secret d’utiliser le magnétisme terrestre dans
sa dualité du magnétisme nord et du magnétisme sud, pour envoyer sur
toute la terre des forces de domination qui agissent sur un plan
spirituel. (…)
Surtout, il faudra découvrir le mystère de la
manière dont Ce qui agit depuis le cosmos comme une force solaire selon
la direction venant des Poissons se relie avec ce qui agit depuis le
cosmos selon la direction qui vient de la Vierge. C’est là le bien que
l’on découvrira, à savoir la manière dont, depuis deux côtés du cosmos,
les forces du matin et les forces du soir peuvent être mises au service
de l’humanité ; d’un côté, en provenance des Poissons, et de l’autre
côté, en provenance de la Vierge (voir dessin plus bas).
On ne
s’occupera pas de ces forces, par contre, là où l’on essaiera de tout
obtenir par le dualisme de la polarité des forces positives et
négatives. Les mystères spirituels en vertu desquels ce qui est cosmique
peut, sur terre – à l’aide des forces doubles du magnétisme, le positif
et le négatif ― traverser ce qui est spirituel, proviennent des Gémeaux
; ce sont des forces de midi. Déjà dans l’Antiquité, on savait qu’il
s’agissait là de quelque chose de cosmique, et les scientifiques savent
bien, aujourd’hui, sur le plan exotérique, qu’il existe d’une manière ou
d’une autre, dans le zodiaque, derrière les Gémeaux, un magnétisme
positif et un magnétisme négatif. Il s’agira alors de paralyser ce qui
doit être tiré du cosmos par la manifestation de la dualité, de le
paralyser d’une manière égoïste, matérialiste, au moyen des forces qui
affluent vers l’humanité depuis les Gémeaux, et qui peuvent être
entièrement mises au service du double.
À propos des êtres prématurés du futur qui s'incarnent dans les membres des loges:
I am
obliged to speak in pictures — there are also beings of a contrary nature, to
whom I alluded in my last lecture in another connection. And this latter class
of beings has to do with all that comes to expression in man's instinctive
urges and impulses, in his desires and passions. You must not however think of
them as belonging first and foremost to man. In man we can see the results of
their activity. But they have their home, so to speak, right on the Earth. Only
we cannot see them, for these beings too have not a body that is formed in such
a way as to be visible to us. They have, in fact, a body that lives entirely in
the elements of earth and water. And their deeds are to be seen in the ebb and
flow of the tides, in volcanic eruptions and in earthquakes. Natural Science,
as is well-known, can find no satisfactory explanation for these phenomena. One
who has keen spiritual perception can however see behind them a world of
sub-human beings, who are under the control of the powers to which I have always
given the name of the Ahrimanic powers.
Now, these
Ahrimanic powers also cherish a particular aim as regards man. With the help of
their various sub-spirits, which inhabit the earth and water elements of our
Earth and can, for example, be recognised even in the kobolds or brownies of
fairy lore — aided by these, the Ahrimanic powers have set themselves to carry
out another and a different project.
If one
considers these Luciferic and Ahrimanic beings by themselves, just as they are,
one cannot, you know, be angry with them. Why be angry with the Luciferic
beings, for instance? They want to make man into a being who is moral entirely
as a matter of course. What could be better? Man would, it is true, never under
their influence be free, he would be an automaton; but what they seek and
desire for him can nevertheless be truthfully described as good.
Now let us
see what is the aim of these other beings, who build their strongholds
immediately below the surface of the Earth, and whose activities rise up into
man’s metabolism, — for the phenomena we observe in the tides and less
frequently in volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are always present also in the
ebb and flow in man's metabolism. Whilst the Luciferic spirits build, as we
said, their strongholds in the air, in order to fight for the moral — as
against the earthly — element in man, the Ahrimanic beings struggle to harden
man; they want to make him like themselves. Were they to be successful, man
would become extremely clever in the material realm — incredibly clever and
intelligent. They cannot achieve their end directly, but they aim at doing so
indirectly. And their efforts, which have actually been going on for thousands
of years, have in fact succeeded in producing a whole race of sub-human beings.
Their method is as follows.
Suppose a
man has strong and rude instincts. These beings will clutch at his instinctive
nature and seize hold of it. The man then falls victim to the Ahrimanic powers.
He is completely given up to his passions and leads a wild and dissolute life.
When a man has in this way become a prey, during his earthly life, to the
Ahrimanic powers, then these powers will be able to hold on to his instinctive
nature and tear it out of him after death. There exists already on the Earth a
whole population of beings who have arisen in this way. They are there, in the
elements of earth and water, a sub-human race. And then what is it the
Ahrimanic powers intend with this sub-human race? As we have seen, they draw
out of a human being his instinctive nature and make of it an earth-and-water
being. These earth-water beings inhabit the strata immediately below the
surface of the Earth; and those who go down into mines, if they are able to
look with spiritual vision, are quite familiar with them. They are beings that
have been snatched out of man in the moment of death. And with what ultimate
aim? Ahriman is waiting. The Ahrimanic powers are waiting for the time when men
will descend to incarnation and, on account of a karma that their instincts and
passions have prepared for them, feel particularly drawn to certain of these
beings and say to themselves: “I will not go back to the spiritual world; when
I have left my physical body” — out of which, as you know, man generally goes
forth to a super-sensible life — “I will incorporate myself in a subsensible
being of this kind. And that will mean, I shall be able to stay on the Earth. I
shall not die any more, but be permanently united with the Earth. Yes, I will
choose to be a subsensible being.”
It may
sound incredible — and indeed it is astonishing, considering how extraordinary
clever they are, — but it is a fact that the Ahrimanic beings persist in
believing they will ultimately be able in this way to entice such a vast number
of human beings into their own race that the Earth will one day be peopled
entirely with such Ahrimanic sub-human beings. By this means they hope to make
the Earth itself immortal, so that the hour may never come for it to perish and
be dispersed in cosmic space.
We have
thus around us in our earthly environment two hosts of beings; one in the air,
that wants to make man moral but to lift him away from the Earth, and then we
have also, immediately below the surface of the Earth, the Ahrimanic beings who
want to draw man down and fasten him permanently to the Earth.
The one who
knows that not more than thirty or forty people participated in Europe in the
decisive events of the year 1914, and who also knows the soul condition in
which most of these people were, will be confronted by this significant
problem. For most of these people, as strange as it may sound today, my dear
friends, most of these people had a dulled, obscured state of consciousness.
During the last few years much has occurred that was caused by a dulled human
consciousness. In the decisive places of the year 1914 we see everywhere that
the most important decisions of the end of July and the beginning of August
were reached with an obscured consciousness; and this has continued on right
into our present day. This is a problem, terrifying in its nature. If we
investigate it spiritual-scientifically, then we find that these obscured
consciousnesses were the gateways through which precisely these will-beings
were able to take possession of the consciousness of these men; they took
possession of the obscured, veiled consciousness of these human beings and
acted with their consciousness. And these beings who thus took possession, who
are still sub-human beings, what kind of beings are they? We have to pose this
question very seriously: What kind of beings are they?Well, my
dear friends, we have asked about the origin of human intelligence, about the
origin of human intelligent behavior which, stating it simply, has its
instrument in our head organism. And we have seen that this intelligent
constitution of our soul stems from that deed of the Archangel Michael which is
commonly presented in the symbol of the fall, the casting down of the Dragon.
This is actually a very trivial symbol. For, if we really conceive of Michael
and the Dragon, we have to visualize, first, the Michael Being, and, secondly,
the Dragon who, in reality, consists of all that which enters into our
so-called reason, into our intelligence. Not into a hell does Michael cast his
opposing hosts, but into the human heads; there this Luciferic impulse
continues to live. I have characterized human intelligence as an actual
Luciferic impulse. Thus we may say: if we look back into the evolution of the
Earth, we find the Michael-deed, and to this Michael-deed is joined the
illumination of man by his reason.
The
sub-human beings whose main character consists of an impulse which strongly
coincides with human willing, with the human power of will, now appear from
below, as it were, whereas the hosts of forces cast down by Michael came from
above; and while these latter took possession of the human power of will; they
unite themselves with it and are beings produced by the realm of Ahriman.
Ahrimanic influences acted through those obscured consciousnesses. Indeed, my
dear friends, as long as one does not take into consideration these forces as
forces objectively existing in the world just as one takes into consideration
what today is called magnetism, electricity, and so forth, one will not gain an
insight into that nature which, according to Goethe's prose Hymn to Nature,
comprises man. For nature, as it is conceived of in today's natural science
does not contain man, but merely the human physical self.
At the
beginning of Earth becoming we have to do with a downfall of Luciferic beings;
today we have a rise of Ahrimanic beings. The former beings influence the
Luciferic power of thought, the latter the human power of will; we have to
recognize the arrival of these latter beings within the evolution of mankind.
We have to realize that these beings arrive and that we have to reckon with a
conception of nature which, to be sure, for the time being only includes man;
for the animal kingdom will only be included later on in the Earth period. Upon
the animal these beings have no influences as yet. We shall not comprehend the
human race without taking these beings into consideration. And these beings,
who are, as it were, pushed from behind, for behind them there stands the
Ahrimanic power which endows them with their strong will power, which pours
into them their directive forces, — these beings who as such are sub-human
beings are controlled in their totality by higher Ahrimanic spirits and thus
contain something which far surpasses their own nature and being. Therefore
they show something in their appearance which, if it takes the human being
captive, acts much more strongly, very much more strongly than that which the
weak human being can control today, if he does not strengthen it through the
spirit. What is the aim of this host? Well, my dear friends, just as the hosts
which Michael has pushed down have aimed at human illumination, at human
permeation with reason, so these hosts aim at a certain permeation of human
willing. And what do they want? They burrow, as it were, in the deepest stratum
of consciousness in which the human being is still asleep today in his waking
state. Man does not notice how these beings enter his soul and also his body.
Les morts restent pris dans la loge, deviennent la clientèle des loges à cause du matérialisme répandu par les loges:
En franchissant la porte de la mort, dans les conditions actuelles de
l’évolution, l’homme emporte avec lui les caractéristiques de sa
conscience qu’il s’est lui-même forgées entre la naissance et la mort.
La personne qui, dans les circonstances actuelles, s’est exclusivement
occupée, de représentations, de concepts et de sensations se rapportant
au monde matériel, au monde des sens, se condamne, dans les conditions
actuelles, à ne vivre, après sa mort, que dans un environnement en
rapport avec les idées qu’elle s’est formées pendant sa vie corporelle.
Tandis que celui qui accueille en lui des représentations spirituelles
entre légitimement dans le monde spirituel, celui qui refuse
d’accueillir en lui de telles représentations doit demeurer, dans un
certain sens, dans des conditions terrestres, jusqu’à ce qu’il ait
appris – et cela dure longtemps – à accueillir là-bas en lui assez de
notions spirituelles pour qu’il puisse être porté par elles dans le
monde spirituel. Donc, selon que nous accueillons ici en nous des
notions spirituelles ou non, nous détermnons notre environnement là-bas.
Beaucoup de ceux – on peut seulement le dire avec compassion – qui se
sont refusés à accueillir en eux des notions spirituelles durant leur
vie ici-bas ou qui ont été empêchés de le faire, évoluent encore sur
terre quand ils sont morts, et restent en lien avec la sphère terrestre.
Et là, l’âme humaine, lorsqu’elle n’est plus protégée de
l’environnement par un corps, lequel ne l’empêche plus désormais d’agir
de manière destructive, là cette âme humaine, lorsqu’elle vit dans la
sphère terrestre, devient alors un centre destructeur.
Considérons donc ce cas, je dirais, plus normal, où, dans les conditions
actuelles, des âmes qui ne voulaient absolument pas entendre parler de
concepts ou de sentiments spirituels passent dans le monde spirituel
après la mort : elles deviennent des centres destructeurs, parce
qu’elles sont retenues dans la sphère terrestre. Seules les âmes qui
sont déjà pénétrées ici d’un certain lien avec le monde spirituel
franchissent la porte de la mort de façon à être accueillies dans le
monde spirituel de la bonne manière. Elles sont soustraites à la sphère
terrestre et peuvent tisser en direction aussi de ceux qui sont restés
sur terre les fils qui se tissent en permanence.
Les fils spirituels entre les âmes des morts et nous-mêmes, qui étions
en lien avec ces âmes, ne sont pas rompus par la mort, mais demeurent,
et sont même beaucoup plus forts après la mort qu’ils ne l’étaient ici.
Mais ce que j’ai dit doit être compris comme une vérité sérieuse, d’une
grande importance.
Le fait qu’il en est ainsi à notre époque est une fois de plus quelque
chose que je ne suis pas seul à savoir, que d’autres savent aussi. Mais
il existe beaucoup de gens qui exploitent cette vérité justement dans un
sens très pernicieux. Il existe aujourd’hui des matérialistes induits
en erreur qui pensent que la vie matérielle est la seule vie ; mais il
existe aussi des initiés qui sont des matérialistes et qui font répandre
des théories matérialistes par l’intermédiaire de certaines confréries.
Vous ne devez pas croire, au sujet de ces initiés, qu’ils défendraient
par exemple le point de vue stupide selon lequel il n’existe pas
d’esprit et que l’homme ne possède pas une âme capable d’être
indépendante du corps et de vivre sans lui.
Vous pouvez admettre en toute confiance que celui qui est vraiment
initié au monde spirituel ne se laisse jamais aller à la stupidité de
croire qu’il n’existe rien en dehors de la matière. Mais il y a beaucoup
de gens qui, d’une certaine manière, ont intérêt à faire que le
matérialisme se répande et qui organisent toutes sortes de
manifestations pour qu’une grande partie de l’humanité croie uniquement
au matérialisme et soit entièrement sous l’influence du matérialisme.
Ainsi, il existe des confréries, avec à leur tête des initiés, qui
trouvent justement un tel intérêt à cultiver et à répandre le
matérialisme. Pour elles, il est très utile que l’on raconte
continuellement que le matérialisme est en fait déjà dépassé. Car l’on
peut aussi s’efforcer d’atteindre une chose en utilisant les mots qui
veulent dire le contraire ; les manières de procéder sont souvent très
complexes.
Que veulent donc ces initiés qui savent en fait très bien que l’âme
humaine est un être purement spirituel, un être spirituel totalement
indépendant par rapport au corps, et qui, malgré tout, nourrissent et
cultivent cette manière de penser matérialiste ? Ces initiés veulent
qu’il y ait le plus d’âmes possibles qui n’accueillent en elles, entre
la naissance et la mort, que des idées matérialistes. De cette façon,
ces âmes sont préparées à rester dans la sphère terrestre. Elles sont
pour ainsi dire maintenues dans la sphère terrestre. Et maintenant
songez que des confréries sont constituées, des confréries qui savent
cela très précisément, qui connaissent bien cet état de fait. Ces
confréries préparent certaines âmes humaines de façon que ces âmes
demeurent après leur mort dans le règne de la matérialité.
Lorsque, ensuite, ces confréries – comme peut le permettre leur pouvoir
scélérat – prennent les dispositions nécessaires pour que ces âmes
entrent après la mort dans leurs sphères de pouvoir, elles voient leur
puissance s’accroître considérablement. Ces matérialistes ne sont donc
pas des matérialistes parce qu’ils ne croiraient pas à l’esprit – ces
initiés matérialistes ne sont pas aussi insensés –, ils savent très bien
ce qu’il en est de l’esprit ; mais ils font en sorte que les âmes
restent dans la matière, même après leur mort, afin d’utiliser ces âmes à
leurs fins. C’est ainsi que de telles confréries se créent une
clientèle d’âmes de défunts qui demeurent dans la région de la terre.
Ces âmes de défunts possèdent en elles des forces qui peuvent être
dirigées de manières très variées, des forces au moyen desquelles on
peut provoquer diverses choses et par lesquelles on peut parvenir à des
déploiements de puissance très particuliers.
C’est simplement l’une des choses qu’organisent certaines confréries. Et
dans cette affaire, seul voit clair celui qui ne se laisse pas conter
de choses obscures et nébuleuses ; qui ne se laisse pas conter qu’il
n’existe pas de telles confréries, ni que leurs activités sont
inoffensives. Elles ne sont sûrement pas inoffensives ; elles sont même
très nocives. Pour elles, il faut que les hommes s’enfoncent toujours
davantage dans le matérialisme. Il faut, conformément aux intentions de
ces initiés, que les hommes croient qu’il existe, certes, des forces
spirituelles, mais que ces forces spirituelles ne sont rien d’autre que
certaines forces de la nature.
À présent, je voudrais tout de même vous caractériser l’idéal que
nourrissent ces confréries. Il faut se donner un peu de mal pour
comprendre cette affaire. Imaginez donc un monde inoffensif d’êtres
humains, un monde un peu déconcerté par les idées matérialistes qui
prédominent aujourd’hui, un monde qui s’est un peu écarté des anciennes
représentations religieuses éprouvées. Imaginez une telle humanité
inoffensive. Peut-être pouvons-nous nous en donner une bonne
représentation graphique (un dessin est esquissé) ; nous imaginons ici
le domaine d’une telle humanité inoffensive (grand cercle, clair). Comme
cela a été dit, cette humanité n’est pas très au fait du monde
spirituel ; déconcertée par le matérialisme, elle ne sait pas très bien
comment elle doit se comporter face au monde spirituel. Notamment, elle
ne sait pas très bien comment se comporter vis à vis de ceux qui ont
franchi la porte de la mort.
Supposons à présent que l’on ait ici le territoire d’une telle confrérie
(petit cercle, vert), que cette confrérie répande la doctrine du
matérialisme, qu’elle fasse tout au moins en sorte que ces hommes
pensent d’une manière purement matérialiste. Par là, cette confrérie
réussit à se fabriquer des âmes qui restent après la mort dans la sphère
terrestre. Ces âmes deviennent une clientèle spirituelle pour cette
loge (voir dessin, orange) ; c’est-à-dire que l’on s’est procuré par là
des morts qui ne sortent pas de la sphère terrestre, mais restent
attachés à la terre. Si on s’organise de la bonne manière, on les garde à
l’intérieur des loges. On a donc créé de cette façon des loges qui
contiennent des vivants et aussi des morts, mais des morts qui se sont
apparentés aux forces terrestres.
Or l’on dirige les choses de telle façon que ces personnes clarté – j’ai
à plusieurs reprises attiré votre attention sur le fait qu’au cours de
la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, beaucoup de confréries ont introduit
le spiritisme à titre d’essai, pour, à travers cet essai, avoir la
conviction qu’ils en étaient déjà arrivé avec l’humanité au point où ils
voulaient en venir. C’était faire des essais pour savoir où ils en
étaient avec l’humanité. Dans les séances spirites – c’était là leur
attente –, les gens devaient dire : Il existe des forces supérieures de
la nature. Et ils furent déçus, ces Frères de la Gauche, déçus que les
hommes n’aient pas dit la plupart du temps : Il existe des forces
supérieures de la nature – mais qu’ils aient dit : Dans les séances les
esprits des morts nous apparaissent. Ce fut pour les initiés une amère
déception. C’était justement ce qu’ils ne voulaient pas ; car les
initiés voulaient ôter aux hommes la croyance dans les morts. Non pas
l’efficacité des morts, non pas l’efficacité des forces des morts, mais
la pensée que cela vient des morts, cette véritable, cette importante
pensée, voilà ce qui devait être ôté aux hommes. Vous voyez, c’est un
matérialisme supérieur ; c’est un matérialisme qui ne nie pas seulement
l’esprit, mais qui veut introduire de force l’esprit dans la matière.
Vous voyez, le matérialisme a encore des formes qui permettent de le
nier. On peut dire que le matérialisme a disparu, et que l’on parle déjà
de l’esprit. Mais tous parlent de l’esprit de façon nébuleuse. On peut
alors très bien rester matérialiste si l’on transforme toute la nature
en esprit d’une manière telle qu’il en sort le psychisme. (…)(18 nov.

Politiciens possédés et domination anglo-économique mondiale voulue par les loges
C'est pourquoi il est important de ne pas aborder ce que
propose Woodrow Wilson uniquement avec le penser actuel inculqué aux hommes de
diverses manières, mais d'avoir conscience, grâce à une connaissance plus
approfondie des choses, de ce qui n'est qu'instinct, même chez des hommes comme
Woodrow Wilson, de ce qui, dissimulé sous toutes formes de principes, fascine
les êtres humains, mais n'émane cependant de l'âme en question que parce que
celle-ci est en quelque sorte possédée par des forces subconscientes.
Les cercles occidentaux qui gardent leur savoir secret
tiennent donc particulièrement à ce que certaines choses évoluent de sorte que,
quoi qu'il advienne, l'Occident acquière le pouvoir sur l'est. Les gens peuvent
bien dire aujourd'hui ce qu'ils veulent en leur conscience, la volonté actuelle
est de fonder à l'ouest une caste de « maîtres » et à l'est, une caste
économique d'esclaves, sur les territoires s'étendant du Rhin jusqu'en Asie.
Non pas une caste d'esclaves au sens grec antique, mais une caste économique
d'esclaves qui est censée être organisée à la manière socialiste, censée
assumer toutes les impossibilités d'une structure sociale, mais dont le modèle
ne doit surtout pas être appliqué aux populations anglophones, qui doivent
devenir les maîtres de la Terre.

La magie
cérémonielle et ses effets, sous influence des Anges retardés d'Égypte ancienne:
Something
else, too, is necessary, and that is the goodwill to resist all that
untruthfulness about which we have been speaking in these lectures. All these untruthfulnesses
that buzz about in the world enter into what might be called the spiritual aura
and generate there a thick fog which the dead find impossible to penetrate.
This thick fog contains all that black rubbish which comes, for instance — to
name only one source — from today's journalism, in the form of untruths which
are printed and repeated, creating an aura of untruthfulness spanning the
earth. It is no exaggeration to say that it is exceedingly difficult for the
dead to penetrate this black fog. Therefore, with the help of ideas such as
those we have been developing concerning the absolutely concrete untruthfulness
buzzing about in the world, it is necessary to endeavour to reach clarity, to
really make the effort in this field to recognize the purely external truth of
the physical plane in so far as this can become accessible to us, in order not
to cover our soul with a dense fog through which the spiritual world simply
cannot penetrate. You will understand how very necessary this is.
In conjunction
with the concepts we have just been discussing, let us now touch on the
question: What is the aim of those secret societies which send impulses of the
kind we have been describing into the world, impulses which then live in the
life of untruthfulness and which have led, out of this untruthfulness, to the
painful events of today? What do these secret societies want? Among others — we
cannot go into everything — there is one particular thing they want: They want
to materialize materialism even further; they want to create even more
materialism in the world than would come about as part of the natural evolution
of mankind in the fifth post-Atlantean period. They want even more materialism.
This is only one aspect of what they are aiming for, but it is the aspect we
want at least to touch on here. With this aspect in mind such societies are
founded and with this aspect in mind people are persuaded to join them, people
who are approached during their lives because they are deemed suitable.
There are
the most varied types of such societies. One type, much in evidence in the West
and taking all kinds of forms, includes organizations which practise ceremonial
magic. Ceremonial magic can, of course, be good magic, but we are speaking now
of those societies which do not practise ceremonial magic for the good of
mankind in general, but for the good of certain groups of people, or certain
specific aims which are not general human aims.
Let us look
first at those societies which practise ceremonial magic from this point of
view. As we have said, it can be good, but in these societies it is not good.
Certain kinds of ceremonial magic have definite effects on the human physical
body. Everything physical is, after all, a manifestation of the spirit. Certain
spiritual aspects which come into being under the influence of ceremonial magic
can have an effect on the human physical body, specifically on the system of
ganglia, as I described it the other day, and also on the spinal system. The
cerebral system is the most difficult of all to influence by means of
ceremonial magic. All this has to be done via the detour of the spiritual
element, but it can be done and it can become effective.
Imagine
certain secret societies carrying on a form of ceremonial magic directed
towards its grey or black aspects. Imagine they influence their members in a
way that affects even their physical body, even the delicate vibrations and
weavings of their physical body, so that something spiritual flows into this
physical body.
What is the
consequence? The consequence is that something now comes about which was
suitable in earlier periods of human evolution but is no longer permissible
today. Such procedures make it possible for the spiritual world to influence
those human beings who participate, even though they do not turn towards it
along the path I have described. This means that it becomes possible for the
dead, as well as other spirits, to influence the members of a circle created by
ceremonial magic. In this way today's materialism can be made hyper-materialistic.
Imagine a
human being — and there are countless such in the West — who is entirely
materialistic, not only in his view of the world but also in all his feelings
and sensations. And then imagine this materialistic disposition increasing to a
high degree. Such a person must of necessity develop an urge to exercise an
influence on the material world, not only while he lives in his physical body
but also after he has died. He is bent on the following: When I die I want to
have some abode through which I can affect the people I have left behind on the
earth, or who are trained in such a way in relation to me. There are indeed
certain people today whose materialistic urge is so great that they strive for
means by which they can cultivate connections with the physical world even
beyond death. And such means, through which a person secures for himself the
possibility of affecting the material world from beyond death, are abodes of
certain kinds of ceremonial magical practice.
This is
something that can have immense consequences. Imagine a number of people
brought together to form a certain brotherhood. These people know: Others have
gone before us; their urge to exercise their power was so great that their life
on earth was not enough for its gratification, so they want to go on gratifying
it even after death. For them we are creating an abode, and through the acts of
ceremonial magic we perform, they work into our bodies. Because of this we gain
greater power than we have; because of this we are enabled to exercise a
certain degree of magical power over other, weaker people who stand outside
such brotherhoods. When we speak words, when we give a speech, these dead souls
work in us because we have been prepared by sharing in these acts of ceremonial
magic.
It is one
thing if somebody who simply participates honestly in the cultural processes of
our time gives a speech in parliament or writes a newspaper article. But it is
something entirely different if a person who belongs to a circle of ceremonial
magic, and is thus strengthened by the power urges of some who have died, gives
a speech in parliament or writes an article for a newspaper.
The latter
exercises an immensely greater degree of influence in the direction of his
wishes than would be the case if he did not have this backing. This is one side
of the matter.
The other
side is that those who enter the circle of certain societies practising ceremonial magic are securing for themselves a
power that reaches beyond death, a kind of ahrimanic immortality. For these people this is their main concern.
For them, the society they enter provides a kind of guarantee that certain
forces — which should by rights only live in them until the moment of death —
will continue to live, even beyond death. More people than you might think are
nowadays filled with this idea of guaranteeing for themselves an ahrimanic immortality, which consists
in exercising influence not only as an individual human being, but also through
the instrument of a society of this kind. Such societies exist in the most
varied forms, and individuals who have attained certain degrees of advancement
in these societies know: As a member of this society I shall become to some
degree immortal because forces which would otherwise come to an end at my death
will continue to work beyond death.
What these
people then experience through this ceremonial magic makes them quite oblivious
to a thought which would concern someone who takes such things truly seriously
and in a genuinely dignified way. This is that the more a person gains by way
of materialisticimmortality, or rather ahrimanicimmortality, the more he loses of the consciousness of true,
genuine immortality. Yet materialism
has taken such a hold on many souls today that they remain unconcerned about
this and are tricked into striving for
ahrimanicimmortality. It could
indeed be said that societies exist
today which, from a spiritual or occult point of view, could be called ‘insurance companies for ahrimanicimmortality’!
It is only
a small number of people in each case who understand all these things. For as a
rule these societies are organized in such a way that the ceremonial magic they
practise influences only those who are unaware of the implications, merely
desiring to make contact with the spiritual world by means of symbolic
ceremonies. There are many such people. And those who have this desire are by
no means necessarily the worst. They are accepted as members of the circle of
ceremonial magic among whom there are then a few who simply use the rest of the
members as instruments. Therefore one should beware of all secret societies
administered by so-called higher grades whose aims are kept hidden from the
lower grades. These administrative grades usually comprise those who have been
initiated to a stage at which they only have a vague idea of what I have just
been explaining to you. They comprise those who are to work positively in
connection with certain goals and aims which are then realized by the wider
group of those who have been merely inveigled into the circle of ceremonial
magic. Everything these people do is done in such a way that it leads in the
direction required by the higher grades but is strengthened by the forces which
come from ceremonial magic.
Those who
know how huge a number of such societies exist in the West can begin to gain an
idea of what immensely effective tools such societies of ceremonial magic can
be for certain far-reaching plans for the world. As you have seen, the chief
aim is to prolong into our time a way of proceeding in which the spiritual
world works into the sense-perceptible, physical world in a manner that was
right in earlier times. For our times, however, the right procedure is for
human beings to go towards the dead and meet them half-way. In the mood we have
just been discussing, however, a path is sought which was appropriate in
earlier, atavistic times but which today is brought about through the medium of
ceremonial magic.
(…)
The lecture
then goes on to describe how certain forces which had their proper place in the
third post-Atlantean period are now starting to work in our time. One may now
add that just as an individual quite rightly finds a connection with his proper
angel, so is it also possible for him to find a connection to those retarded spirits
of the Egypto-Chaldean period, those retarded angels, if he seeks those forces
and impulses which, in fact, are exaggerated ahrimanic forces coming in the
manner described from the realm of the dead. These retarded angels play an
important role in the secret societies I have been describing to you. There
they are important helpers and leading spirits. A great deal that goes on in
such secret societies is aimed at bringing Egypto-Chaldean elements in the old
way into the present time. When these matters are no mere tomfoolery but stand
fully in occult life, this takes place under the influence of retarded beings
from the hierarchy of the angels who become leaders there. These are the beings
from the hierarchy next above man who are sought by these societies.
This points
to something exceedingly important. When we understand how the living
testaments of these societies — not written testaments left over for those
still alive, but testaments which are forces going beyond death — when we
understand how these work and are preserved, which is something that ought not
to happen, then we understand something of the magical power wielded by such
societies which often enables them to impress the stamp of truthfulness on to
something untrue. And indeed, one of their important magical functions is to
spread untruth in the world in such a way that it gives the effect of being the
truth. For in this working of the ‘untruth in what is true’ lies one of the
mighty strengths of evil. This strength of evil is then put to considerable use
in all kinds of quarters.

Autre allusion à l’immortalité ahrimanienne
« polongation de la vie »
25 nov 1917
De même, il s’agit pour ces milieux d’amener aussi le
problème de l’immortalité dans un sillage matérialiste. Ce problème de
l’immortalité peut, de la même manière, en mettant à profit la configuration du
cosmos, être amené dans un sillage matérialiste. On ne parvient pas alors, en
matière d’immortalité, à ce qu’on espère obtenir de multiples manières par
spéculation, mais on parvient à une autre immortalité : on a une loge dans une
quelconque confrérie et on se prépare, tant qu’il n’est pas encore possible
d’agir sur le corps physique pour prolonger la vie artificiellement, on se
prépare à vivre avec son âme les choses qui nous donnent la capacité de rester
dans cette confrérie même après la mort, et de l’aider avec les forces dont on
disposera alors. C’est pourquoi, dans ces milieux, l’immortalité est tout
simplement appelée prolongation de la vie.
De toutes ces choses, vous percevez déjà maints signes
extérieurs. Je ne sais pas si certains d’entre vous ont remarqué le livre Der
Unfugdes Sterbens {193} (La farce de la mort), qui nous est aussi venu de
l’ouest et qui, pendant quelque temps, a fait parler de lui. Ces choses vont
toutes dans la même direction. Elles n’en sont qu’à leurs débuts, parce que ce
qui va plus loin que ces débuts est encore jalousement gardé aujourd’hui pour
l’égoïsme de groupe, et tenu caché. Mais ces choses deviennent effectivement
possibles si on les introduit dans le sillage du matérialisme, si on fait, des
idées abstraites de Dieu, de vertu et d’immortalité, des idées concrètes d’or,
de santé et de prolongation de la vie, si on exploite dans le sens d’un égoïsme
de groupe ce que je vous ai présenté comme étant les grands problèmes de la
cinquième période postatlantéenne.
Passion déplacée envers le progrès-démocratie et aristocratie des loges:
The English
Freemasons can maintain today that their lodges are entirely respectable and
that any others are none of their business; yet if you look beyond the
historical connections and the interplay of opposing currents, you are sure to
find high-level British politics hiding in the background.
To
understand the deeper meaning of these politics it is necessary to draw a
little on recent history. Preparations having been under way from the sixteenth
century onwards, there has been a tendency ever since the seventeenth century
towards the democratization of society — in some countries more quickly, in
others more slowly — by taking power away from the few and giving it to the
broad masses. I am not here involved in politics and I shall not therefore
express myself in favour of either democracy or anything else. I simply wish to
state facts. The impulse towards democracy is having its effect in modern times
at varying speeds, and so different streams are coming into being. It is a
mistake, where several streams are apparent, to follow the course of only one.
The way streams flow in the world is such that one always forms a complement to
the others. Let us say a green and a red stream are flowing along side by side.
Nothing occult is meant by these colours — it is simply to illustrate that
there are two streams flowing side by side. Usually people are, let me say,
hypnotized into looking at only one of the streams, while they fail to see the
other flowing beside it during the same period in history. As you know, if you
push a hen's beak into the ground and then draw a line leading away, the hen
will always walk along this line. In the same way people today, especially
university historians, see only the one side, and can therefore never really understand
the historical process.
Parallel
with the democratic stream there came into being the use of occult motives in
the various secret societies — in isolated cases, also Masonic orders. In their
purposes and aims these are not, of course, spiritual, but there developed, let
us call it, a spiritual aristocracy parallel to that democratic stream which
was at work in the French Revolution; the aristocracy of the lodges developed.
To see clearly as a human being today, to be open to the world and to understand
the world, it is necessary not to be dazzled by democratic logic — which has a
place only in its own sphere — by empty phrases about democratic progress and
so on; it is necessary also to point to that other stream which asserted itself
with the intent of gaining power for the few by means that lie hidden within
the womb of the lodge — the ritual and its suggestive influence. It is
necessary to point to this also.
This has
been forgotten during the age of materialism, but before the fifties of the last
century people did point these things out. Study the philosophical historians
prior to 1850 and you will see that they pointed to the connection between the
lodges and the French Revolution with all that followed it. During the period
that can be seen as preparatory for today, western historical development, the
western world, never emancipated itself from the lodges. The influence of the
lodges was always strongly at work. The lodges knew how to find channels
through which to impress certain directions on people's thoughts. Once a web
like this has been spun — of which I have shown you merely a few strands — the
button need only be pressed for things to be set in motion.
Emancipation
from all these situations, and the impartial embracing of humanity as such,
only really came about under the influence of such great spirituality as
developed in German philosophy beginning with Lessing, and developing through
Herder and Goethe.
