The way is difficult and very few follow it. In some ways, this is unfortunate - for we believe the way offers anyone the opportunity to advance along the path to genuine adeptship and beyond. It makes real, or can make real, the potential that most individuals possess - the latent genius within. However, given human nature the small numbers are understandable. What the ona has done - over the past thirty years or so - is to create a simple practical system which works: Which can produce genuine adepts and masters/lady masters. In effect, we have distilled the essence from thousands of years of conscious understanding, producing an elixir, an ‘internal alchemy’, which anyone can use.
We describe this system as satanic, as sinister because it is. It is a complete rejection of the philosophy/religion of the nazarene. The philosophy/religion of the nazarene is anti-life and anti-evolutionary, as nietzsche, for example, understood. For us, satan is both an archetype or symbol of our defiance, and some-thing real - the re-presentation of what we describe as ‘the acausal’. That is, we understand the ‘darker forces’ as not simply a part of our psyche (as most modern so-called satanic groups do) - but as beyond our own, individual psyche. These darker forces - or the acausal - are beyond us, as individuals: They are beyond our conscious control (and even real understanding) until we become a part of them. This does not mean a submission to those forces - but rather an expanding of individual consciousness, a development of individual conscious, to include those forces. This expansion is what marks the genuine satanic master/lady master.
Satanic groups like blackwood's lay claim that the darker forces are merely an aspect of the psyche, the unconscious or whatever. They do this for two reasons. First, they need to - because they want to feel safe; they want to be able to play their pseudo-satanic, pseudo-intellectual, games in a mostly urbanized safety, because the members of such groups are not proud, characterful, self-aware individuals: They need the comfort of a group, of a ‘leader’, of ethical guidelines, of feeling that satan can be controlled by some meaningless mumbo-jumbo. In effect, the members and leaders of these groups are weak - they lack self-discipline; they lack even the desire for real self-mastery, content as they are to continue with edifying their own weaknesses, with massaging their inflated egos.
Second, such groups and their members do not really comprehend the sinister. They have had no real experience of the primal, numinous, supra-personal power of the dark forces - of how that power can destroy individuals. In effect, they have never really ‘tapped into’ the acausal itself - to what is really sinister. They have never really confronted satan. They have never really striven to be like satan - to become one with him; to merge with the acausal itself; to become a ‘nexion’ for the acausal, for sinister energies. This becoming-one is what makes, what creates a genuine satanic master/lady master, as living alone like a hermit creates the adept. It is dangerous, naturally - but the only means whereby that synthesis which is beyond the synthesis that is individuation can be achieved. There is thus a real, a genuine, transcending beyond ‘good’ and ‘evil’; beyond ‘light’ and ‘dark’. This achievement, as with all real achievements of an occult kind, originates from practical experience - from a real personal knowledge. Anything else is posing, is irrevelant.
Other groups have tried to ‘intellectualize’ satanism - to take away the real experiences by which genuine satanic character is formed. Or they wallow in the weaknesses of those addicted to impulses they cannot understand and they lack the strength to control. They have attempted and continue to attempt and make satanism respectable and safe - just another ‘religion’. They fantasize, and play games. They simply do not understand satanism as a means to create new, more highly evolved, individuals. In reality, the genuine satanist creates by participating in real life, the dreams, the standards of excellence, the élan which others often aspire to emulate. A genuine satanist can be like a beast of prey - in real life.
Alas, satanism is but a means to an end. The end is to achieve self-development.
