The Occult Roots of Nazism: Secret Aryan Cults and Their Influence on Nazi Ideology: The Ariosophists of Austria and Germany, 1890-1935 is a book by Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke. It is the "seminal work"[1] on Nazi occultism and Ariosophy. The book also includes some information on Esotericism in Germany and Austria between 1880 and 1945. The book is based on Goodrick-Clarke's 1982 Ph.D. thesis The ariosophists of Austria and Germany 1890-1935: Reactionary political fantasy in relation to social anxiety[2].

Rohan Butler, who had written The Roots of National Socialism in the 1930s, wrote the foreword.

First published in 1985, it was republished as a paperback by New York University Press in 1992 (ISBN 0-8147-3060-4), and more recently republished by I.B. Tauris & Co Ltd (ISBN 1-86064-973-4).

The book has been translated into French, Polish, Italian, Russian, Czech, German and Greek.[3]

The German edition features a preface and an additional essay Nationalsozialismus und Okkultismus (National Socialism and Occultism) (15 pages) by H.T. Hakl.

Adolf Hitler - Génio ou Louco?

YouTube (original) Version of Above Portuguese Version:

The Other Three Installments of the Series (from YouTube...):

More Info:

The Occult History of the Third Reich, narrated by Patrick Allen and directed by Dave Flitton, is a 1991 four-part History Channel documentary regarding the occult influences and history of Nazi Germany and early 20th century Germany.

Contents

The documentary was originally shown and released in four parts in 1991.

1) Adolf Hitler
2) The SS Blood and Soil
3) The Enigma of the Swastika
4) Himmler the Mystic

Synopsis

The documentary contains mainly black and white as well as some color archival footage, with narration explaining the influences of alternative belief systems (occult, paganism, mysticism, etc) on the Nazi ideology and Hitler's personal philosophy. It also documents the history and development of ideas and symbols and of the eugenics movement.

In the early 20th century, the young Adolf Hitler was just one of many German-speaking people attracted by a new Germanic mythology that combined ancient legends and esoteric cosmologies with cutting-edge theories of genetic science. In the hands of the Nazis, the result was a new ideology that saw racial purity as the key to human destiny.

This was a belief-system of arcane rituals and potent symbols, with the ancient swastika appropriated for the Nazi cause. By the time of the Third Reich, Hitler and the Nazis had evolved an entirely new faith, complete with holy book, venerated relics and a priestly elite in the form of Himmler's SS. It was a religion based on obedience, power, and the cult of the leader, with Hitler himself conceived in Messianic terms.

Tratado da Pedra Filosofal e Tratado sobre a Arte da Alquimia

Sobre o Autor:

Tomás de Aquino OP (Roccasecca, 1225 — Fossanova, 7 de março 1274) foi um padre dominicano, filósofo, teólogo, distinto expoente da escolástica, proclamado santo e cognominado Doctor Communis ou Doctor Angelicus pela Igreja Católica.


Biografia

Tomás nasceu em Aquino por volta de 1225 , de acordo com alguns autores no castelo do pai Conde Landulf de Aquino, localizado em Roccasecca, no mesmo Condado de Aquino (Reino da Sicília, no atual Lácio). Por meio de sua mãe, a condessa Teodora de Theate, Tomás era ligado à dinastia Hohenstaufen do Sacro Império Romano-Germânico.[1] O irmão de Landulf, Sinibald, era abade da original abadia beneditina em Monte Cassino. Enquanto os demais filhos da família seguiram uma carreira militar,[2] a família pretendida que Tomás seguisse seu tio na abadia;[3] isto teria sido um caminho normal para a carreira do filho mais novo de uma família da nobreza sulista italiana.[1]


Aos cinco anos, Tomás começou sua instrução inicial em Monte Cassino, mas depois que o conflito militar que ocorreu entre o imperador Frederico II e o papa Gregório IX na abadia no início de 1239, Landulf e Teodora matricularam Tomás na studium generale (universidade) criada recentemente por Frederico II em Nápoles.[4] Foi lá que Tomás provavelmente foi introduzido nas obras de Aristóteles, Averróis e Maimônides, todos que influenciariam sua filosofia teológica.[5] Foi igualmente durante seus estudos em Nápoles que Tomás sofreu a influência de João de São Juliano, um pregador dominicano em Nápoles que fazia parte do esforço ativo intentado pela ordem dominicana para recrutar seguidores devotos.[6] Nesta época seu professor de aritmética, geometria, astronomia e música era Pedro de Ibérnia.[7] Aos 19 anos, contra a vontade da família, entrou na ordem fundada por Domingos de Gusmão. Estudou filosofia em Nápoles e depois em Paris, onde se dedicou ao ensino e ao estudo de questões filosóficas e teológicas. Estudou teologia em Colônia e em Paris se tornou discípulo de Santo Alberto Magno que o "descobriu" e se impressionou com a sua inteligência. Por este tempo foi apelidado de "boi mudo". Dele disse Santo Alberto Magno: "Quando este boi mugir, o mundo inteiro ouvirá o seu mugido."

Foi mestre na Universidade de Paris no reinado de Luís IX de França. Morreu, com 49 anos, na Abadia de Fossanova, quando se dirigia para Lião a fim de participar do Concílio de Lião, a pedido do Papa.

About Frater Albertus:

Frater Albertus Spagyricus (Dr. Albert Richard Riedel) (1911–1984); founder of the Paracelsus Research Society in Salt Lake City, which later evolved into the Paracelsus College. Based on the Paracelsian concept of three essentials, Body, Soul and Spirit, Frater Albertus developed a system of teaching alchemical concepts using the spagyric technique of separation and cohobation. The unique gradated courses allowed students to explore aspects of the vegetable, mineral and animal kingdoms in an understandable and accessible way. Previous to this, one had to be a member of a fraternity or secret society in order to gain access to structured teaching. After his death in 1984, the college ceased operations in the United States but continued to carry on the tradition in Australia. Frater Albertus had a profound effect on the way Alchemy and particularly the Spagyric method was disseminated and understood in the mid to late 20th century. His works were translated into many languages.

O Fantástico Mundo da Alquimia

Author Bio Article
(In french. If you don't understand, use Google Translator - Although the translation is always kinda bad... But i'm sure you know better sites for that matter...):


Carole Sédillot est une pédagogue jungienne.


Elle est conférencière, formatrice en symbolique et mythologie. Elle œuvre à une diffusion de la psychologie jungienne, mieux nommée psychologie des profondeurs. On la dit "jungienne" car cette psychologie a été fondée par Carl Gustav Jung (1875 - 1961).

Elle est l'auteur d'une douzaine d'ouvrages dans ce domaine et elle a donné des conférences en France et à l'étranger qui l'on fait connaître auprès du grand public.


Ecrits

La figure de l'homme primitif et son analyse


Carole Sédillot dans son ouvrage, " La quête du soi : les 12 travaux d'Hercule", Éditeur Dervy, 11 juin 2007, a mené une recherche de sens sur cette représentation, en particulier au travers de celle de Hercule.

Cette dénomination d' homme primitif est issue de la psychologie analytique pour désigner des processus psychiques inconscients, ayant une importance dans la vie psychique du sujet. Ces processus se nomment des archétypes.

« ... L'objectif de cet ouvrage consiste à mettre en parallèle, d'une manière nouvelle et originale, l'aventure mythique d'Hercule et ses 12 Travaux avec le fonctionnement du processus d'individuation initié par Carl Gustav Jung[1]. »

Pour rappel, Héraclès (en grec ancien Ἡρακλῆς / Hêraklễs), de son premier nom Alcide, fils de Zeus et d’une mortelle, est un des héros les plus vénérés de la Grèce antique.

La mythologie grecque lui prête un très grand nombre d’aventures qui le voient voyager à travers le monde connu des Doriens puis de toute la Méditerranée à partir de l’expansion de la grande Grèce, jusqu’aux Enfers, et dont les plus célèbres sont les douze travaux, qui ne représentent pourtant qu’une petite part de sa geste héroïque.

Il correspond à l’Hercule romain.

Selon Carole Sédillot le travail sur soi est une quête au cours de laquelle, le patient rencontre de multiples épreuves :

« ... La rencontre avec soi-même et son évolution s'accomplissent symboliquement par les épreuves, les affrontements et les victoires vécus par le héros, auquel chacun peut s'identifier. Jung a expliqué ce processus, menant à la réalisation du moi en Quête du Soi, en le juxtaposant avec, entre autres domaines, l'alchimie et le mandala.

La personnalité d'Hercule, demi-dieu qui gagne son immortalité, dans sa perspective humaine et divine, se prête à tout individu en recherche d'équilibre psychique et d'harmonie intérieure. Le parcours éprouvant qu'il choisit, en effectuant les 12 Travaux, reflète sa volonté de vivre l'expérience intime de la découverte du moi profond par la confrontation avec sa part la plus obscure, révélatrice des contenus inconscients.

La structure, les lieux, les animaux, les adversaires et les types de combats exposés dans les 12 Travaux s'associent étonnamment avec les concepts jungiens : persona, ombre, anima-animus, Soi... et offrent la possibilité de porter un regard différent sur l'épopée du héros et sur son objectif[1]. »

Pour rappel, l' homme primitif est présent dans l'animus principalement de la masculinité de la femme il est ce que l'on nomme un archétype.

Les images et pensées psychiques associées et à laquelle s'identifie la femme, tout entièrement ou en partie le sont au travers des positions intellectuelles, psychiques, d'émotions, d'actions qui renvoient inconsciemment à un modèle auquel il faudrait se tenir : un homme primitif ou en rapport a un homme primitif.

Cet "homme" est proche de modèle culturel tels que : tarzan, de l'athlète, de Dionysos ou évidemment : Héraclès (Hercule).

Falecimento do Rev. Murillo Nunes de Azevedo


É com pesar que informo o falecimento do Rev. Murillo Nunes de Azevedo, um dos pioneiros do Buddhismo no Brasil. Eis a nota escrita pelo Rev. Ricardo Mário Gonçalves:

A Tradição Hermética

The Author of the Book:

Barone Giulio Cesare Andrea Evola (May 19, 1898 – June 11, 1974) also known as Julius Evola, was an Italian philosopher and esotericist. Evola regarded his stances and spiritual values as aristocratic, masculine, traditionalist, heroic and defiantly reactionary.


Evola believed that mankind is living in the Kali Yuga, a Dark Age of unleashed materialistic appetites, spiritual oblivion and organised deviancy. To counter this and call in a primordial rebirth, Evola presented his world of Tradition. The core trilogy of Evola's works are generally regarded as Revolt Against the Modern World, Men Among the Ruins and Ride the Tiger. According to one scholar, "Evola’s thought can be considered one of the most radically and consistently antiegalitarian, antiliberal, antidemocratic, and antipopular systems in the twentieth century."[1] Much of Evola's theories and writings are centred on spiritualism and mysticism; the inner life. He authored books covering themes such as Hermeticism, the metaphysics of war and of sex, Tantra, Buddhism, Taoism, mountaineering, the Holy Grail, the essence and history of civilisations, decadence and various philosophic and religious Traditions dealing with both the Classics and the Orient.

Though never a member of the National Fascist Party itself, or advocate of the term to describe his stances — Evola regarded his position as that of a sympathetic right-wing intellectual, who saw potential in the movement and wished to guide or reform its errors through criticism, to a position inline with his own views. One of his successes was in regards to the racial laws; his advocation of a spiritual consideration of race won out in the debate in Italy, rather than a solely materialist reductionism concept popular in Germany. Since World War II many Radical Traditionalist, New Right, Conservative Revolutionary, Fascist and Third Positionist groups have taken inspiration from him.

This restriction must be kept in mind. What I am about to say does not concern the ordinary man of our day. On the contrary, I have in mind the man who finds himself involved in today's world, even at its most problematic and paroxysmal points; yet he does not belong inwardly to such a world, nor will he give in to it. He feels himself, in essence, as belonging to a different race from that of the overwhelming majority of his contemporaries. -Evola, Ride the Tiger, 1961

Tratado Elementar de Magia Prática

Gerard Encausse was born at Corunna (A Coruña) in Spain on July 13, 1865, of a Spanish mother and a French father, Louis Encausse, a chemist. His family moved to Paris when he was four years old, and he received his education there.


As a young man, Encausse spent a great deal of time at the Bibliothèque Nationale studying the Kabbalah, occult tarot, the sciences of magic and alchemy, and the writings of Eliphas Lévi. He joined the French Theosophical Society shortly after it was founded by Madame Blavatsky in 1884 - 1885, but he resigned soon after joining because he disliked the Society's emphasis on Eastern occultism. In 1888, he co-founded his own group, the Kabbalistic Order of the Rose-Croix. That same year, he and his friend Lucien Chamuel founded the Librarie du Merveilleux and its monthly revue L'Initiation, which remained in publication until 1914.

Encausse was also a member of the Hermetic Brotherhood of Light and the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn temple in Paris, as well as Memphis-Misraim and probably other esoteric or paramasonic organizations, as well as being an author of several occult books. Outside of his paramasonic and martinist activities he was also a spiritual student of the French spiritualist healer, Anthelme Nizier Philippe, "Maître Philippe de Lyon".

Despite his heavy involvement in occultism and occultist groups, Encausse managed to find time to pursue more conventional academic studies at the University of Paris. He received his Doctor of Medicine degree in 1894 upon submitting a dissertation on Philosophical Anatomy. He opened a clinic in the rue Rodin which was quite successful.

Encausse visited Russia three times, in 1901, 1905, and 1906, serving Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra both as physician and occult consultant. In October 1905, he allegedly conjured up the spirit of Alexander III, the Tsar Nicholas's father, who prophesied that the Tsar would meet his downfall at the hands of revolutionaries. Encausse's follower allege that he informed the Tsar that he would be able to magically avert Alexander's prophesy so long as Encausse was alive : Nicholas kept his hold on the throne of Russia until 141 days after Papus's death.

Although Encausse seems to have served the Tsar and Tsarina in what was essentially a shamanic capacity, he was later curiously concerned about their heavy reliance on occultism to assist them in deciding questions of government. During their later correspondence, he warned them a number of times against the influence of Rasputin.

When World War I broke out, Encausse joined the French army medical corps. While working in a military hospital, he contracted tuberculosis and died on October 25, 1916, at the age of 51.

Nostradamus - A Magia Branca e a Magia Negra

Michel de Nostredame ou Miquèl de Nostradama,[1] mais conhecido sob o nome de Nostradamus (Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, 14 de dezembro de 1503 ou 21 de dezembro de 1503[2] — Salon-de-Provence, 2 de julho de 1566), foi um apotecário e médico da Renascença que praticava a alquimia (como muitos dos médicos do século XVI). Ficou famoso por sua suposta capacidade de vidência. Sua obra mais famosa, As Profecias, é composta de versos agrupados em quatro linhas (quatrains), organizados em blocos de cem (centuries); algumas pessoas acreditam que estes versos contém previsões codificadas do futuro[3].


Sofria de epilepsia psíquica, de gota e de insuficiência cardíaca. Morreu em 2 de julho de 1566 em Salon-de-Provence, vítima de um edema cárdio-pulmonar.

O Verdadeiro Livro de São Cipriano

Livro de São Cipriano é um grimório publicado em diversos países, inclusive no Brasil pela Editora Eco, do Rio de Janeiro, que contém diversos rituais de ocultismo, mais especificamente magias (branca e negra), com múltiplas finalidades, inclusive para o quotidiano.


O Livro de São Cipriano hoje é uma verdadeira coleção, todos afirmando que são os verdadeiros livros de São Cipriano, mas, na verdade, São Cipriano só escreveu um: Livro de São Cipriano de Capa Preta. [carece de fontes?]

A lenda de São Cipriano, o feiticeiro, confunde-se com São Cipriano de Cartago, santificado pela Igreja Católica, conhecido como o Papa Africano. Apesar do abismo histórico que os afasta, as lendas combinam-se e os Ciprianos, muitas vezes, tornam-se um só na cultura popular. É comum encontrarmos fatos e características pessoais atribuídas equivocadamente. Além dos mesmos nomes, os mártires coexistiram, mas em regiões distintas.

Cipriano, o feiticeiro, é celebrado no dia 2 de outubro. Foi um homem que dedicou boa parte de sua vida ao estudo das ciências ocultas. Após deparar-se com a jovem Justina, converteu-se ao cristianismo. Martirizado e canonizado, sua popularidade cresceu devido ao famoso Livro de São Cipriano, um compilado de rituais de magia.
