- In the World of Tradition, there are two paths for a man to achieve heroism. I talk about Julius Evola's conceptions of the warrior and ascetic archetypes and how to apply them in the modern age.

@Daniel Casmir Thank you, Daniel, and yes, that is the yellow Schirmer book. I have been working with it for over ten years and still love it. Back then, they knew how to write songs for singers! I hope one day to have mastered all of them. I have a recording of one of them up on my other channel and may do another in the next few months. Contemporary songs just can't compare!
I watched that interview, it was very good. I loved your Path of the Crone video also. This is great wisdom for men of all ages. I am going to send this to my son who is in college. He's a bit of a lost soul these days. Perhaps my fault. I wish I had known this stuff when I was raising my kids, but better to share this with them now than never. The friend that sent me your other video told me you have teenage sons and I can imagine they must be quite impressive young men. They will be off to a good start in life with this knowledge. I hope they appreciate their mother's wisdom, although I know teenagers often think their parents are stupid and don't realize we were right until they have kids of their own! Please make more videos like this. I am a big fan.
You have to be one of the most underrated people in the whole WN UA-cam sphere, love your videos.
Thank you. I'm happy to be able to make them for people.
I would call her one of those aphrodite types of women. She gives a valuable female perspective, which is very rare among women in the movement who call themselves trad. Not that philosophicat calls herself that. I don't think she labels herself.
@@Sniegel Thank you. I definitely don't call myself "trad". I dislike that term...
@@PhilosophiCat alot of what you said rang true to me. But, the Dream is oh so welcoming. It would be nice if there were explicit brick and mortar places where we would be from the diversity empire. Alot of non-whites feel the same too, but it probably devolves into self-hatred of their mixed status. They hate that they are mixed and want everyone who isn't mixed to be assimilated to their empire
What does "WN" mean?
Jesus Christ, who is this woman? Extremely insightful! And well-informed! Even the great Jordan Peterson fails to understand for example the Shiva/Shakti dichotomy, insisting on interpreting everything through the lens of the chaos/order model, while Cat is right on the money. And she's up-to-date on the current internet subcultures as well. And on top of that she's a classically trained singer! I'm very impressed.
She used to have a video critiquing Jordan Peterson but it seems to have been memory-holed. I used to like Peterson, but he never could really bring it all the way home for me. It's like he's telling you to go through the motions of how to fix your life but it's missing the essence and so it ends up being very shallow. My room was clean, but I still was mired in nihilism. Her videos on nihilism really helped me (fortunately those ones are still up!) and it was actually the kick in the guts I needed to start thinking about my life differently.
I know man, Joardon Peterson's Indic knowledge is so limited, that I have never been able to connect with him, even me a Indian college student has more idea on Indic philosophies than J. B. Peterson, who is supposed to be one of the leading thought leader of modern philosophy? I don't buy this. A philospher and interpretor of ideas, who doesn't understand even fundamentals of one of the oldest living civilisation, it's hilarious.
@@jacksonb3662 Jordan Peterson misses the truly kingly and adventurous spirit. He has a lot of measly 'knowledge' but fails to put it into a greater purposeful metaphysical framework devoid of whimsies always arguing through the lens of his personal beliefs. He is a rather feminine and emotional personality and unaware of how his family assisted his succes and emotionally supported him has been displaying traits of hubris on his youtube channel lately where he posts weekly tantrums directed to different parties and institutes but devoid of any metaphysical logos or emotional discipline. He is a good stepping stone toward greater wisdom and served as such for me, but he has frankly overstepped his abilities and is currently flirting with becoming a false prophet of a sort due to his lack of humility.
Peterson, like his namesake Simon Peter, is a golem. PhilosophiCat is an Aryan Goddess of truth, beauty, and wisdom.
This is one of the most powerful and important videos I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. Unbelievably under watched and underrated. Bravo Cat, some parts of this, in reminding of my brothers, father, grandfather and partner brought me to tears. 🙏🏻 Thank you for making this.
The lessons from the World of Tradition are a desperately needed antidote to the sickness of modernity.
A battle i constantly fight. To listen to someone who can really describe it is a blessing. And when it's a woman that tells it, shows me the importens of the role you can for fill. With love, understanding and support. The fule and fire you can bring is out of this world. Thanks for sharing.
Men and women are meant to work together to raise a happy family. There is nothing stronger than that.
not in the west Because they consider that toxic masculinity, go to the philippine There you can find feminine and submissive women
a quickly disintegrating belief
The Oligarchs convinced women to compete with men. To mimic men.
Not be complimentary to him. And this cancer spells doom.
@@robertpatter5509 (((Oligarchs)))
Very inspiring. As a 51 year old man, a "veteran" of helping to raise a family, and still struggling on the path of self-mastery, I took a lot from your video. Many thanks.
"Other men simply end up staring into the abyss, and it leads to hedonism and escapism."
Been there, not worth going back.
There now, hope I'll manage to make it out
Thank you for spreading Evola's piercing observations with the new generations. Love your content.
Amazing content. Your ability to analyze the current state of the world, and to offer genuine solotions, is amazing. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
I was just telling people about this video in the comments on another channel and I felt like I needed to come back and watch this again. I don't know if I ever thanked you for making this. I have watched this well over a dozen times and this and your series on nihilism changed my life. I watch this video at least once a month to remind myself to stay on track. I hope you make more like this. Every man needs to see this video and apply it to his life, imo.
I'm also coming back to these older videos, they have so much wisdom. It's very easy to forget these things
5 years after the release of this video and I continue to be surprised by how accurate your interpretation of the perennial work and philosophy of Evola is, the absolute man is nothing more than the one who is guided and manifests through the transcendent but not in an external way but internal, whether through action or contemplation, self-control is one of the main keys to attracting pure feminine power (shakti), whether mentally or physically, the man who can dominate himself and direct himself towards the eternal and transcendent will conquer the world!
Great content, I agree with you on almost everything. One remark I have is about your claim that we do not need new ideas, we need better men. While I agree that we need better men and it does eventually boil down to our capacity for self mastery, I don't believe it is realistic to expect large numbers of better men (or even a few) without some form of 'new' ideas being spread. By new I do not mean completely unheard of, but rather new information to the men in question.
The ideas themselves might be as old as our race, but if they do not reach our people in a way that engages them, these ideas are useless. In a way, your video *is* some type of 'new' idea in this sense. It opens a doorway to the minds of men who might otherwise have never looked at life this way. As you said, men are more compelled to ideas and ideals. I believe we need to make sure we feed our men the right ideas and ideals in the right setting. I'm afraid most men are way too lost to find these on their own. Your video and content overall is definitely helping.
That being said, I'm missing 2 more elements in your video. The first would be spirituality and our relation to the transcendent. It seems to me that our modern generation has lost this connection completely. As a result, we are doomed to the cage of materialism and will inevitably be weighed down by our egos a lot more than we would be if we had a proper understanding of the nature of our existence and our relationship to the transcendent.
The second is the aspect of play, or flow. This is something that I have come to realize myself only recently, after coming to pretty much the same conclusions you have laid out here in this video. The biggest problem for me personally was that I never saw the path of the hero as something inherently rewarding or joyful. It always had its attractiveness, but joy was never part of that. It was always more a deeper pull that at the same time felt rather empty and dark, like an endless investment of energy with no real tangible reward other than the fruits of heroic 'success', as vaguely as that is.
Even though the path of the hero is certainly not to be underestimated, I do believe now that walking it purposefully and with dedication, the path itself is where the actual joy lies, rather than in its mere material or social returns which my modern outlook primarily projected on it. Of course, for this to be realized one must still invest his being into it completely, but at least it does not feel like an empty sacrifice and too much of a burden to bear. This has been one of the biggest issues for me, who has been searching more than anything. It has made me very prone to procrastination because I subconsciously believed the reward to be not even near worth the investment.
Lastly, what I've also noticed in my own behavior in retrospect is the attraction to the fruits of the path of the hero without ever being conscious of the path itself in the first place. I think most men are stuck here. We desperately try to aim for the fruits directly instead of nurturing the three that produces them because we have lost our understanding of the metaphysical path of man.
Thanks for such a thoughtful comment, Louis. To address your two points:
I wouldn't say what I am presenting is a new idea because I am parsing Evola's ideas, albeit for a new audience. And he himself drew from Tradition and perennial philosophy. By this late stage in human development, coming up with a truly new idea that no one has ever thought of before would be challenging, to say the least.
As for the two elements you find missing, I didn't address them here for two reasons. One is that it was too much a tangent outside the scope of this already long video. The other is that I do address those things in my Nationalism and Nihilism series (you can find the link in the description), so hopefully you find that I have satisfactorily addressed our relationship to the transcendent there.
Maybe being a hero is (for some) an abandon of own’s ego. This is why so many are either turned to faith or materialism instead.
This is amazing, and pretty close to the philosophical ideas I had after reading Evola and Spengler. Thank you.
Great video ! The best of your channel, imo.
Thank you!
You should do a completely analysis of the Lord of the Rings.
Or at least the different characters.
I think it could be super interesting
Yes, perhaps one day. I really like DharmaNation's analysis of it from a Vedic perspective: ua-cam.com/video/sh36Ys0hxoE/v-deo.html
@@PhilosophiCat I was just about to recomment this talk on LOTR :D How could I think for e second you haven't watched it :D
I participated recently in a 90 minute discussion on LOTR for Frodi's "Guide to Kulchur" Decameron Film Festival. ua-cam.com/video/wErz-TpmaWs/v-deo.html
Hell yes
Wow.
This right here is some well constructed critical thought.
Thank you and best wishes to you and yours from The UK.
Thank you for the wisdom and the encouragement sister!
The temptations of the ego can be so subtle even when you're on the look out for it. I was having a "debate" with a liberal friend of mine about how I think that cognitive behaviour therapy is a crutch and not a real cure for anxiety and depression. What matters is inner transformation of your Being. I think it's actually lunar to depend upon rational thought to know what's true, instead of "knowing". Well I couldn't explain it well anyway to him and I was becoming internally frustrated because I "needed" to convince him that our outer life depends on our inner being. Alright Tao Te Ching, I know that good men do not argue. There is no need to. If you need to argue you are not good. I didn't become convinced of Traditional thought through argument anyway, but through an inner knowing. Bowden said that people who gravitate around right wing ideas know that truth about it without having all the ideas or being intellectually convinced. It's a prerational knowing, I think you feel the essence of your being just gravitate to these outer expressions, these ideals put into speech.
Todd, I agree totally
Dude! Quick warning I am not the most eloquent in speech, no Saruman here sadly, but MAN your comment hits the nail on the head. It made me think of how when you are in a super crowded parking lot looking for your car, and mentally you feel lost and kinda helpless, but somehow your feet tend to walk and point towards where the car is and you eventually find it. We get befuddled by so much in this modern age that distract and confuse us, but when you look back on the path you were on, and look ahead to where you are heading, you see that your consciousness in a way knew you were walking towards something that you may have not had words for yet, but knew inwardly was right. No matter what a previous friend, lover, society, a family member, or the media distracted you with, you were walking towards that traditional inner knowing.
@@etheridescenceSince we are much more influenced by what we interpret (senses), isn’t tradition a tiny fraction of this “inner working”?
I saw you on MillenniYule and came to watch this one first, since you mentioned it in the show. I was impressed by your interview but this is ten times better. I am flabbergasted by both your insight and the clarity with which you speak about this. I was truly moved watching this. Every man needs to watch this. I am baffled by how small your channel is. You're like a hidden gem. Please do more interviews on big channels. It is the only way to help your channel grow and spread these messages. UA-cam will suppress you in the algorithms and then no one will find you.
Absolutely brilliant presentation. Extremely inspiring!
It’s unfortunate but there are those amongst us who do more harm than good with their words and behavior and yet they’ve garnered more attention. You deserve more subscribers and viewers than you’ve received. Out of nowhere suggestion; I’d love to hear you and Thomas Rowsell (Survive the Jive) have a chat about the role men and women need to play in the modern world.
I quite like Survive the Jive. He makes great content. I would be happy to talk with him if he ever invited me on.
Woah! What an analysis! This is gold and super thoughtful!
This the first Philosophicat I've watched, and it has given me much to reflect on.
In fact, as I was listening to how the masculine is the solar and the feminine is the lunar, I recalled something I heard about the words paternal and maternal:
Paternal ~ pattern
Maternal ~ matter
There's also a movie on St. Francis of Assisi called Father Son, Sister Moon. That title seems to parallel what's said here.
Interesting point on those words! I like it!
Can't believe I found just what I was looking for, never expected a beautiful woman of great intellect to be the one who would illuminate this knowledge. Thank you.
The more I watch her, the more I fall in love with her! ... and I watch her often
@@virtuousstr8477 I was kind of feeling a bit lame for crushing on an e-girl, but then I see others are too, and I feel a bit better about it! What can I say, I'm sucker for smart blondes...
Thank you. I've really been looking forward to your videos recently. You're really good at explaining these concepts and it has helped me understand Evola better. I think you're right that new ideas are not what are needed and there is a trap that sets people on the wrong path of mental masturbation when they try to pursue a unique way of problem solving. Its an easy trap to fall into. What we need are quality men, masters of ourselves so we can be masters of our destiny. Our societies wouldn't have so many problems if our men were Gandalfs and Aragons.
Nietzsche also said that humans are still 'as yet an undetermined animal.' There are infinite possibilities. Joy Jay (one of the founding fathers of the Unites States of America) once said that he rather rule over himself than rule over other men. Rather Nietzsche of him don't you think?
You are exactly nailing the weakness of the UA-camr’s discourse: a simplistic view of the human being. In this case, having a view based on stereotypes makes it worse, as it only stretches the absurd of trying to sound philosophical.
Amongst the women of today, you are a breath of fresh air, keep up the great and inspiring content!
I have to say, this is such high-quality stuff. I’ve watched it three times. I would love to see you do some streams with Spencer and striker. The three of you really have that passionate, revolutionary vision for our people
Thank you, K J. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much! I'll be doing a livestream on Monday 9pm EST on No White Guilt's channel, discussing some of these ideas in more depth.
No White Guilt is a gem, as well. It’s great to see you doing lots of content and looking good 👍🏻
Perfect analysis and call to action. Thank you for being willing to talk about this
Are you and Cat related? You have the same last name.
Incredible. Thank you for making these videos! I binged your Evola videos and just finished this one. Keep up the good work!
Very interesting piece about one of the greatest philosophers ever. Thanks for helping me remind I have his book in some box and dig it up again!
I clicked for the funny cat icon, stayed for the interesting ideas.
Cool video! Your ideas are expressed very clearly and make a lot of sense to me but I’ve never put them together like this. Thanks!
Thanks, I'm glad I could convey the idea well for you.
This is my first video of yours! Fascinating!
Welcome aboard! Glad you enjoyed it!
That’s amazing. You really should make some kind of a platform - website, forum, whatever - to let us all (16k+ subscribers!) unite in some way. For example, I would like to write to you with some questions, but on UA-cam there’s no way to do it privately. Thanks for your great effort and congratulations for the amazing results. From a long time member in the (immaterial) fellowship of Evola.
There are many male heroes who are warriors and many who are ascetic and then there are those who manage to be both! You find them in history and in myth and in diifferent religions. This talk does remind me of the Imams in Ahlul Bayt who combines the two very well but there are many other examples as welll
Very well done! I have been searching for this explanation of what is really going on behind the smoke, mirrors, bread, and circuses of modernity. History repeats itself.... Only the actors and costumes change
Incredibly powerful video! Keep doing what your doing, your certainly gifted!
Thank you sister, you're contribution is truly appreciated. I hear in your words the timeless truths that speak to the very essence of man.
Great message 👍 🙏
You're video just gave me a thoughtgasm.
This is your first video I've watched, but my second exposure to you: Listened to ~ 20 minutes of your appearance on Ed Dut's show just last nite and was very impressed. Couldn't grasp [grok] Evola, reading him 10 or 15 yr. ago - but was highly rewarded, vindicated, reading 'Metaphysics of War' a few months back. Will be looking in to more of your work. Glad to meet you.
I just started reading Julius Evola's Metaphysics of War yesterday and now this video popped up, great timing. Excellent video and thoughts.
Cool! I hope you enjoy the book. The video should tie in with it in a few places.
@@PhilosophiCat Btw, why do you call Boromir's father "Denethor the blackpilled"?
Denethor ran around screaming that all hope was lost and wanted to give up on Gondor before the fight had even begun.
@@PhilosophiCat I think Peter Jackson did a masterful job in a series of films that could outright have butchered Tolkien's masterpiece. However, Denethor can be misconstrued in the film's portrayal. Essentially Denethor lost his mind to despair resisting Sauron, and although this may be seen as tragic, I think it was a heroically tragic form of martyrdom.
_"He [Denethor] must have guessed that the Ithil-stone [Sauron's palantír] was in evil hands, and risked contact with it, trusting his strength. His trust was not entirely unjustified. Sauron failed to dominate him and could only influence him by deceits._
_'Saruman fell under the domination of Sauron... [while] Denethor remained steadfast in his rejection of Sauron, but was made to believe that his defeat was inevitable, and so fell into despair. The reasons for this difference were no doubt that in the first place Denethor was a man of great strength of will and maintained the integrity of his personality until the final blow of the (apparently) mortal wound of his only surviving son." - J.R.R Tolkien (Wikipedia on Denethor)_
@@hokum4438 Things like this make me appreciate these books even more, very interesting.
I grew up in a strong traditional Assyrian family with strong faith in God. A man MUST HAVE principles, morals & standards in all aspects of his life. A good start to improving your relationship with the opposite sex & placing principles in your life is to only date to Marry. And also growing your faith in God, for his word will truly build you up into a Man/Woman who lives by Virtues
This is a great video!
What's weird is that I'm agreeing with you a lot, but I can't get into Evola/Traditionalism becuase there is too much woo-woo language
Your straight forward language is very appreciated
I found that difficult to digest as well, such as how to observe the spiritual world.
I appreciate all your hard work.
I belief the warrior path is more about experience and trials using your instincts in life situations. The most realized fictional warrior archetype will always be Conan of Cimmeria.
Challenging your mortality is pretty important. You must face the darkness and defeat it's demons.
I love the LOTR analogys.
Saurons power is derived from technology (the ring) and he has forsaken ecology (his place among the natural order of things as a maiar)
Sauron is imensly powerful when wielding his technology but nothing more then an impotent spirit when its no-longer in his possession.
So many parallels to modern man, Tolkien was a powerful wizard indeed.
New subscriber here. This is some very insightful content. Great channel!
Absolutely beautifully spoken
Very powerful, Philosophicat xxx
13:25 Yes absolutely! Nailed it!
As a Polytheist who is working to help bring back the old ways, this video was quite inspiring. Great job!
I’m really enjoying your content! I’ve read Metaphysics or War and own Ride the Tiger. Evola was a great thinker.
These videos are all incredible, well-prepared, and intellectually stimulating. So glad I discovered this channel
Bless you. Thank you for your existence. I'm very glad to have discovered you. If not for your appearance on the Jolly Heretic i would not know about Julius Evola. Thank you.
This alone makes the show worth having done! Thank you and welcome to the channel. :-)
As a man I disagree a little bit with a certain point you bring up. It's about looking up to past idols and being inspired by their example and trying to embody who they were. One such example of this would be (and I'm not a christian by the way) Jesus Christ. Based on his life I find it perfectly good that Christians find inspiration through him, and try to live everyday as he did, I don't see how this is non-masculine at all. The same goes for Muhammad for Muslims, Muhammad was a very masculine man judging by the scripture, he was even a warrior and fought many battles. All Muslims today find inspiration and try to embody his character and spirit everyday, I think this is very masculine. But overall this was a great video and I agree with almost all of it.
Wow thank you so much for this! I have rarely viewed anything this good for a long time.
I was wondering who do you think embodies the the ideal of the warrior or the ascetic in the modern world (or a combination of the both). I suppose glory for men lies in being a man of ideas and a man of action at the same time.
I must disagree with this warrior in the realm of ideas concept so popular among people who have never seen the workplace in which the actual warrior works. The battlefield. And our ancient "thinkers" were warriors first in their lives...but I agree 100% about the true man serving an Ideal/Principle. For me as a twenty year Army veteran and a practicing "pagan" Alexander of Macedon (Great) is the ultimate expression of the Absolute Man. Found you through Marcus and your knowledge has me considering a reading!! Just starting out with your videos so let the learning begin.
great stuff gurl keep the good work!! :D greetings from iceland !
How did this one slip through the net? You're fast becoming one of my most trusted spirit guides. Very insightful, as always.
Thanks! I guess maybe just because it's an older video. Very honoured to be an inspiration to you. May you go on to inspire others in turn (as I know you do)!
@@PhilosophiCat Thanks, Cat. In a just world, you'd have a sell out speaking tour with Semiogogue and Asha Logos as your backing singers. :)
Nice, I was hoping you would do another one of these on men. :)
I initially hadn't planned to, but many people asked for it. Upon further reflection, I decided it was an important topic worthy of discussion. More important than the one on women, tbh.
@@PhilosophiCat You are so right. Men are needed now more than ever. Great video. You nailed it with the self-mastery and embodying the higher principles. Once you do this you COMMAND respect rather than DEMAND it. I was on a livestream the other day and this rude jackass cut me off while I was talking and gave me the whole "sorry there, pal". I let him finish his idiotic rant. Then I spoke my piece intelligently, powerfully, yet calmly. Without demanding or expecting anything of anyone and by standing in the power of the truth, I stole the show so to speak. He demanded respect and got some attention, but did not get what he sought because he came from a place of arrogance and ego, rather than of truth and purpose. That kind of fake macho-man bravado is not masculine, it is actually a narcissistic feminine principle. The real man, be he an Ascetic or a Warrior (or both) has a powerful aura that is unstoppable. Keep doing what you're doing Cat, you are one of the few who really gets it.
Profound. Your videos are definitely a beacon of light for me. Thank you.
Such a small view count for such a high quality content. Some aristocratic lessons right there I guess.
Thank you. :-)
Oh my god, where have you been all my life?!!?.. Absolutely fantastic piece of work.. When you were speaking, the image that just manifested in my mind was maximus from gladiator.. Not many men like that around anymore either😅.. You have a new sub.. Please keep working👍
I agree with most of what she says, but I will not give up my self defense classes or my income, except maybe for the top 5% of men, or when my son got sick and had health problems. Obviously we make those sacrifices for our loved ones in times of Emergency. Many men will only abuse that sacrifice. And it is literally a holy sacrifice, not so different from the sacrifice's made in the bible with sheep upon the alter.
That being said, I will always take the time to build my home if I have children and/or a husband. There is a balance to all of this. Modern women have the privilege of working and learning self defence, but you still must take time to turn your home into a sacred refuge, other wise life gets badly out of balance. It is also ok to honor some of the traditions. An extreme of either view, is what has led to the abuse's of mankind.
For some odd reason, I always love men who go out and hunt and then share thier deer meat with the family.
When it comes to spirituality, no one can do that for you. Not even a man. We all must tread our own path on that.

Did Julius Evola have any correspondence with Savitri Devi?
This is one of the most insightful and inspiring videos I have seen. I can't believe I had not watched this one before.
Absolutely fantastic.

So often, people focus on telling the less enlightened what not to do - on owning the libs and patrolling the thots - which accomplishes nothing. You share what TO do, and for this you have earned my respect.

"Women may long for the golden age of a familiar, intimate and peaceful village life. Men, however, tremble at the vision of being smothered and extinguished in the herd. C. S. Lewis expressed this nightmare this way: > One might add that in the hive and the anthill we see fully realized THE two things that some of us fear most for our own species - the dominance of the feminine and the dominance of the collective <
Man has cut the umbilical cord to the Great Mother with a sword and that sword has hung over his head ever since !"
(William Irwin Thompson)
I love this channel! I am finding meaning.
Where did you learn all of this? What are your influences? It's very interesting. I would appreciate it if you could provide a reading list of your biggest influences so I could check them out.
The ideas in this video come from mainly Julius Evola. Primarily his books Revolt Against the Modern World, Eros and the Metaphysics of Sex, and Metaphysics of War.
Thanks. I will check them out.
All of this is resonating so deeply with how I have tried to lay out the path of my life. This is deep, ancestral knowledge that has been kept from us for far too long. Our ignorance of these truths is what allows the shitshow to keep running.
Very insightful
I found this talk very enlightening, thank you. Can you recommend any books that delve into the subject matter?
Thank you. I don’t know of any books that explicitly address this subject in this fashion, but most of it is based off Evola’s work.
based on basic psychological differences between men and women. men are more interested in ideals and objects while women are more interested in people
Never comment on anything but thank you so much for these videos! Love them so much.
Brilliant! I enjoyed this video very much
Good grief. You are a very wise and intelligent woman.
Would you say modern day sports are one of the ideal “battlefields” for a true warrior archetype, and the greatest coaches embrace the warrior & ascetic to manifest their ideas
I feel young men with an athletic background have a much better basis in life, than most
We are not our forefathers, nor should we be content in THEIR achievements. They laid the foundations for us to be greater by every measure... Now GO FREE (Jason Köhne), and exercise the potential within you. Be a Westman! 💪🏻🤍
Amazing video, shared with an irl friend.
But
In the indigenous pantheon of the Germanic linguistic group the moon is a male god, Mani, and the sun is a female god, Sol. Do you have any thoughts on how to integrate this into what you've said here? This is a main difference between northern and southern Europeans and I believe it developed as a reflection of innate differences in neurology due to percent WHG DNA.
The solar and lunar discussed here are purely metaphoric and refer to whether or not someone is the source of their own light or find this in another.
Thank you for placing words to what I feel
This gets in the way of civilization
Saw you on I Hypocrite, you seem smart. Don't know much about Evola but this was a good video
I just want to say you do amazing work. Thank you for all your effort.
I appreciate that! Thank you!
