Hello Neoenians. Welcome to Dawn of the New Earth. My name is Morgan. I'm an ex-Christian revealing hidden knowledge to create a new world. And today we are exploring the book of Lucifer, forbidden knowledge that absolutely terrifies the church. Now, this information that we're going to be looking at today outlines the philosophy of Satanism and is associated with the Enlightenment and the element of air.
So, we're going to be taking a look at the Satanic interpretation of Lucifer as we explore the Satanic Bible by Anton Ley. And it's going to be very good, very interesting. And we're also going to be comparing it to some of the work by Frederick Nichzche in his declaration that God is dead and we have killed him and seeing how that aligns very much. You're going to see a lot of similarities between Nichzche's philosophy there with the book of Lucifer laid out in the Satanic Bible.
So, we're going to get started right away. It's going to be good. Uh, like I said, you know, on the last stream, very blasphemous. So, if you're someone who's easily offended, this is not the video for you. But, we're going to get started. As always, please hit like and subscribe.

And so my first book is out, Neoenesis, Dawn of the New Mind, which describes how to structure the psyche rationally in preparation for higher consciousness and metarrationalism, the new science of mind that explains how this is a mathematical reality and we are eternal beings of mind. And you can check that out. It is in the description. Links are in the description of this video. And of
course, follow me on Spotify. Look up Dawn of the New Earth on Spotify. All right, my friends. Let's begin. We are diving into the book of Lucifer as we explore the satanic Bible by Anton Levy. Now, what is this all about? I want to remind you that Satan and Lucifer are very different archetypes.
If you haven't seen my video called Satanism versus Luciferianism, I highly recommend that you go watch it because they're very different. But what I want to emphasize to you today is that what we are looking at in terms of the book of Lucifer and the archetype of Lucifer is the the satanic interpretation of Lucifer, not the Luciferian interpretation, the satanic interpretation.
So according to the satanic interpretation of Lucifer, Lucifer along with Satan is one of the four crowned princes of hell. And each one of these crowned princes of hell represent a different archetype within the system of Satanism. So book one, let me just uh get this on screen for me. So book one is associated with fire and is the book of Satan. We read that last week if you want to check that out.
By the way, this is a whole playlist. Check out the playlist. Today we're looking at book two, which is associated with air and the book of Lucifer. And there's also of course uh book three which is associated with earth the book of balile and water book four the book of leviathon. So what are the differences here? What can we understand before we really dive into this stuff? We read the book of Satan last week which is associated with fire. And what it essentially is is a uh because Satan is a Hebrew word that
means adversary. So it was basically a uh condemnation of God, an attack on God, an attack on God and an an attack on Christianity. Uh a condemnation. And so it was very adversarial and fiery and opposed to God and Christianity. It was basically an attack on Christian values, uh values associated with God, etc.
The book of Lucifer is associated with knowledge and enlightenment. So the book what the book of Lucifer is doing is it's still it's still very critical of Christianity. But what it's trying to do is lay out the philosophy of Satanism where the book of Satan was fire and was all opposition.
This is laying out more in depth what Satanism is and what Satanism stands for because Lucifer and Satanism associated with enlightenment and knowledge. So it's it's bringing you knowledge of what the satanic system actually is. Okay. So that's what we're going to be taking a look at. And um let's just start right away.
Like I said, I'm going to compare it as well to Frederick Nichze because they are both uh both this this comparison is very If you haven't seen last week's, by the way, check it out because we compared the book of Satan to the Antichrist. And today we're going to be comparing the book of Lucifer to his statement, God is dead.
Uh and and the reason why we're doing this, by the way, is because they're very similar and you can see how Leave was highly influenced by by Nichze and and you know, as I said before, I'm an ex-Christian, but I was never a Satanist. I never became a Satanist. I was uh introduced to Nichch's philosophy well before I read Lee's Satanic Bible. And so I'm much more and it's not just because I read it first, but I as we go forward I'll explain to you why I am much more influenced by Nietian philosophy than satanic philosophy.
But we'll we'll take that bit by bit. But let's just start. We're taking a look right now at the book of Lucifer. And let's start. So it says, "It has been said the truth will make men free, but the truth alone has never set anyone free. It is only doubt which will bring mental emancipation.
Without the wonderful element of doubt, the doorway through which truth passes would be tightly shut, impervious to the most strenuous poundings of a thousand Lucifers. So first of all, I agree with this absolutely 100%. Like the system that I promote is the neoenian system and the neoenian system is founded on the method of doubt. And that's so I I am in a complete agreement with this is that doubt is required to understand truth.
And Le is saying here without doubt the mind would be impervious to the poundings of a thousand Lucifers. What does that mean? Well remember a Lucifer is someone who brings knowledge. So in unless someone has doubted their beliefs, unless someone has doubted what they believe, it doesn't matter how much truth someone is trying to bring them because they've already shut their mind to it because faith has blinded them. And that's that I agree with this point 100%.
And this is what you know Neoenesis, my first book is all about. It's about applying the method of doubt to remove all the systems of brainwashing and conditioning so you can even be ready to understand these higher concepts. So I'm completely down with that. And this is also very similar to a quote by Alistister Crowley.
Let me see if I can find it real quick. Um, the quote by Alistister Crowley is I slept with faith and found a corpse in my arms on awakening. I drank and danced all night with doubt and found her a virgin in the morning. So basically, faith is associated with with with a corpse. It's it it it it's um something that leads to uh stillness, being dead, whereas doubt just gives and gives and gives is essentially what it's saying. It's completely it's renewing and it brings truth.
That's essentially what it what Curley is trying to say here. And um so uh but anyway, I I completely agree with Leave on this. I think that that's an excellent point. And let's continue. Leave says, "How understandable that holy scripture should refer to the infernal monarch as the father of lies, a magnificent example of character inversion.
" So they're saying uh Le is saying that referring to Satan as the father of lies is an inversion. If one is to believe this theological accusation that the devil represents falsehood, then it surely must be concurred that it was he, not God, that established all spiritual religions and he who wrote all of the holy Bibles. So this is a very interesting point. What Leave is saying is that to call Satan a liar is backwards.
And Leave says, "If Satan were actually a liar, then Satan would have created all the world's religions and wrote all the holy Bibles because he's obviously he's saying these are all lies." So if Satan were truly were the father of lies, he would be the author of all religions.
But of course, according to Satanism, he's not. And so the that's he's saying that it's not Satan isn't a liar because that's the position of Satanism. However, it is very very interesting that uh the Gnostics and the Cathars came to this conclusion in a very different way. The Gnostics and the Cathars said, "You're right. Satan wrote the Bible." The Gnostics didn't say Satan wrote the Bible. The Bi the Bible wasn't out yet.
Uh wasn't compiled yet in the time of the Gnostics. Um, but the well depending on on on what era we're talking about here, but the but the very early Christians, but they said that uh a lot of scripture was essentially evil and satanic. A lot of the Gnostics uh believed that the world was created by an evil being, the God of the Bible. The God of the Bible was essentially the devil. And the Cathars agreed.
The Cathars were a medieval sect of Christians um around the uh 1100 and medieval times and they believed that Satan fooled the world and they believed that Satan actually inspired the Bible and tricked the world into thinking that he was God.
So it's kind it's kind of funny that you know you have groups of early Christians and the Cathars who who who believe in something similar that Ly was talking about in terms of um I mean coming to a similar conclusion is coming it from the opposite end by saying no that's not true. I don't know I I think you get the connection there.
I I won't beat it into the ground but but it but it's interesting right? It's interesting how a lot of people are are coming to similar conclusions, but they're talking about it in different ways. So, for example, the Cathars said, "Oh my god, the Bible is evil. It must have been inspired by Satan." Whereas, Leos, oh my god, the Bible is evil. God is evil. Satan must be the liberator.
So, coming to the same conclusions, but you see, they're using the archetypes in different ways. Whereas Satanism embraces the archetype, the Cathars used the archetype of evil as that which inspired the Bible. Let's continue. I I think you get what I mean. It's just cool to see all the different um ideas here. So, uh let's continue.
So, so this section in the book of Lucifer is called Wanted, God, Dead or Alive. Wanted God dead or alive. And so now we're really going to start to see as we explore this the connection between the statement God is dead because this is clearly as we as we see he he never mentions Nietze specifically but but clearly he's referencing NZ in in some of these ideas.
So wanted God dead or alive. Anyone who thinks of Satan as evil should consider all the men, women, children, and animals who have died because it was God's will. And that's also a very good point and something that always confused me very much as a Christian.
Obviously growing up as a Christian, all the evil in the world that occurs every day, well, why is this happening? Oh, it's all part of God's will. It's all part of God's plan. And that never sat sat well with me because it was just a big copout. It's like, well, why why is that God's will? Why is that part of God's plan? Well, we're just lowly humans and we can't possibly fathom and understand the intricate, detailed mind of God. Well, no.
It's just that's just dumb. That's just a stupid interpretation. That's just that's just it just doesn't make any logical sense. It's not that oh, we're human beings and we're too dumb to understand it. It's just it's a dumb idea. It doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
It's completely illogical and um uh ridiculous on on on many different fronts. Uh all right, so let's um just one moment here. Let me bring something up real quick. Okay. And so let me just put get the book back on screen so I can see where we are at. Uh so Ley continues by saying but if God is in complete control and as benign or harmless as he is supposed to be why does he allow these things to happen? Too long have religionists been falling back on their Bibles and rulebooks to prove or disprove, justify, condemn or interpret.
So same point that Leave is really driving home here is look if you look around you and if you think Satan is evil, well think about all the horrible things, all the deaths, all the tragedies that occur in the world because it's God's will. Why does he allow these things to happen? and basically that everyone who uh subscribes to religion is trying desperately to make excuses that just fall flat.
And um I I what a point that I that I want to make here and I and I've said this multiple times is that you can know with certainty that the God of Christianity does not exist because the God of Christianity is described as all loving, all knowing and all powerful. Yet also in Christianity, souls go to hell.
Well, if you think about it, uh if God truly were all loving, he would desire to prevent souls from going to hell. But he doesn't. And if he can't, that means he's not all powerful. But if he can stop souls from going to hell, but doesn't, that means he's not allloving.
So the fact that souls go to hell and God does not prevent this from happening shows a logical impossibility because God would have to either be not all loving, not all knowing or not all powerful for this to occur. So so the existence of God is literally as described in traditional Christianity is a literal impossibility.
You can know that God does not exist as much as you can know 2 plus 2 doesn't equal 5. You can be as sure that that God does not exist as sure as you are that 2 plus 2 equals 5. Now, there's some counterarguments that people try to give for this which which are just absolutely crazy. One of them is, oh well, it's because of free will. God gives humans free will.
And so, humans choose to go, it's humans choosing to go to hell. It's not that God wants them to go to hell or God. Okay, so first of all, uh, and you know, God is just allowing justice to occur. Well, think about this in that in terms of Christianity, in terms of the Bible, God saying, "Either love me or burn for eternity." How is that a free choice? That's like an abusive partner saying, "Love me or I'm going to beat you.
" Is that a just choice? Is that a loving choice? Is that a fair choice? Can we really call that free will? Absolutely not. That's unloving and unjust. And so God saying, "Well, either love me or burn in hell for eternity," is completely incompatible with the attribute of all loving, let alone just. But even if we accept that that is true, even if we try and ignore that part, which we shouldn't, but even if we do, consider the fact that if God truly were all loving, he would not only he he would eventually give some of those souls at least a second chance.
Because remember, hell is an eternity of torture for all eternity. An eternity of torture. So if God were really all loving, at some point he would give at least some of those souls a second chance. Because remember, according to Christianity, you could be the worst person imaginable.
You could be a mass murderer and just imagine the worst person doing every, you know, things that I can't say on YouTube because they would just imagine they're the worst person possible. But at the very last minute, they ask for God's forgiveness, according to Christianity, they're going to go to heaven. Now imagine the flip side of that.
Imagine the the best, most perfect, loving, nice, kindest person you've ever met in your life, just completely selfless, doing good deeds every single day, but they don't believe in God. According to Christianity, they're going to go to hell and burn for all eternity. So, first of all, is that just? Absolutely not. That's not just whatsoever.
And second of all, you you could see like why would God not give that soul a second chance at some point? No. Oh, you you messed up. You didn't get the answer right. So now you're going to be tortured for ever. None of these are compatible with the attributes of all loving, all knowing, and all powerful. So just my my point is my point is is that you can know with certainty that the God of the Bible does not exist.
It's not like, oh well maybe, you know, it's there's there's a small ch. No, there's no chance. Just like there's no chance that 2 plus 2 equals 78. You no, obviously not. I don't have to bet. I don't have to hope. I don't have to have faith. No, I know. And you can know. So, anyway, let's continue here.
I always get I'm getting a little triggered on this topic because I'm I'm an ex-Christian and I was, you know, indoctrinated into all this [ __ ] which absolutely makes no sense whatsoever. Uh but but let's continue. And and by the way, on that note, by the way, some people wondering like why are people Satanists? Well, this is one reason that people become Satanists is because you see how, you know, even me, like I'm I'm getting kind of triggered and I've worked through a lot of this stuff.
Well, Satanism can offer uh a healthy way or a cathartic release for those who've been indoctrinated into Christianity or some mainstream religion because basically you you you are uh taking you are taking on the role of the adversary. you've been basically conditioned by God, uh conditioned by religion. And so in rebellion, you're you you are you are taking because according to Satanism, Satan is the archetype of rebellion, of the adversary.
And so you are taking on that role, that archetype, that satanic archetype of rebelling and being adversarial to God and Christianity, which can be very cathartic for individuals who've been indoctrinated their whole life. Now again, I was never Christian. Uh I was never a Satanist. I was never uh you know, a part of the philosophy of Satanism. Um, I I preferred Nietian philosophy.
And the the the reason why that I prefer Nietian philosophy, by the way, is because Satanism is more focused on indulgence and living life according to the flesh and embracing human nature, which is all great. That's fine. That's great. Great stuff. uh but Nietinian philosophy is more about the will to power and overcoming and uh going beyond human nature creating a new type of self a powerful self.
So Nishin philosophy is very powerful where it's about becoming the uh uh a superman an uber mench as as Nietze puts it and someone who is overcoming all boundaries and limitations and stopping at nothing to become the best possible actualized version of themselves that they can possibly be. And so NZ was highly critical of Christianity.
He wrote a book called the Antichrist which we wrote which we read from in the video previous to this. And so so for me I I was never really drawn to Satanism because I was already exposed to Nietian philosophy which I felt was more powerful and um and I also whereas Satanism is cathartic for some because they're taking on the role of the rebel and the adversary. I didn't like being still within the realm of that Christian um I I you know it was too it was too close to because it's very much like a response to Christianity.
A lot of it is built and Satanism has become its its own thing these days. But you know when you look at this a lot of this is a reaction to Christianity and so it's in a certain way it's kind of dependent on Christianity. Uh you could argue that of course it's it's become a lot more of its own thing these days but that's how I felt at the time and that's very much what the the vibe that the satanic bible gives. Now uh luciferianism is different.
Luciferianism uh is based on the archetype of Lucifer which is much older than the Bible. Lucifer is another word for the morning star represents wisdom and enlightenment. And so Luciferianism is not a reaction to Christianity. It's a way of understanding reality in the world. But but we're not talking about that today.
So let's not I just wanted to give a little bit of background on where I'm coming from and and whatnot. But but I I see the uh the the liberating effects that Satanism can have and I definitely respect that. So it says here, Leave says the Satanist realizes that man and the action and reaction of the universe is responsible for everything and doesn't mislead himself into thinking that someone cares.
So the Satanist is realizing essentially that everything that occurs humans are responsible for essentially that you know you don't if something terrible happens the Satanist doesn't go oh that was God's will or God had a plan Satanist go a Satanist would go well why did that terrible thing happen how can we fix that because we realize that you know if there's some war going on and people are dying or or what have you uh someone might be It's God's will. God has a plan.
Whereas a Satanist goes, "No, what can what can we do here to rectify this because this is our own doing. This is doing the the repercussions of humanity." Leave continues by saying, "No longer will we sit back and accept fate without doing anything about it just because it says so in chapter such and such, Psalm so and so." So that's that.
The Satanist knows that praying does absolutely no good. In fact, it actually lessens the chance of su success. And this is a very important point. It lessens the chance of success for the devoutly religious to often sit back complacently and pray for a situation which if they were to do something about it on their own could be accomplished much quicker.
So, Leave is saying we accept that we are the masters of our lives and we are responsible for what happens in the world and we're not going to sit back and do nothing just because of some verse in the Bible. We're not just going to sit back and pray about it because we realize that prayer does absolutely no good and in fact lessens the chance of success because when you pray about it instead of taking action yourself and fixing the problem you're waiting for some deity to intervene. Now this is an important point.
So let's talk about this just for a second. Does does prayer work? Uh this is a very complicated question. Um the the the answer is that it has to do with psychology. So if you are praying to it, it it can kind of it operates on the placebo effect and it operates on uh instilling goals within the unconscious mind.
So if you if you for example there's different ways to look at this. If you are praying to get a promotion at work, right? So let's say every day you pray to God that you get a promotion for work. Will that can that help? uh it it might and the reason why it might is because what you're doing is if you're praying for this every day, it's not because God is going to do anything, but it's because you're programming your unconscious mind. Your unconscious is picking up on the fact like, "Oh, this is important."
Kind of like when you have if you don't, for here's a good example. If you don't remember your dreams, if you start to uh take a dream, if you if you start a dream journal and start recording the little bits and pieces of dreams that that you might remember, your unconscious will go, "Oh, they're writing this down. This must be something important. So, I'm going to bring it into consciousness.
" And you'll start to remember your dreams more because your unconscious will have flagged it as important. So, if you're praying every day to get a promotion at work, your unconscious might go, "Oh, hey, well, this is something very important." And so, you might be more inclined throughout your day because you're so you've been focusing on it to do some things that could improve your chances of getting a promotion at work.
Maybe you, you know, start to um be on time more and dress more appropriately or be better at customer service or I don't know, whatever. because your unconscious is is pushing you going, "Hey, this is important, so let's make this happen." So, it's you, it's not it's not it's not God. So, so it can kind of work, but uh Leave has a very very good point by saying it can uh lessen the chance of success because people will sit back and pray rather than doing something about it. And so, right, that's that's sort of the flip side of it as well.
That is also a problem because conversely, you might have someone who who uh is praying for something. Um let's say, oh, I'm going to pray to God for uh wealth. I want to be wealthy. I not that that's something that someone would pray for, but some people do. A lot a lot of people do that.
And so, because they believe that God is going to provide them with wealth, instead of going out there and starting a business, they just believe that God's going to bring it to them. Then they're actually going to not uh have that occur. Now we have to bring this around though and realize because I know a lot of people who are into spirituality watch my channel that this also applies to things like meditation and the law of attraction.
So the law of attraction same kind of ideas have people believe that oh if I just if I just put on my vision board that I'm going to make money and if I just repeat my affirmations every day about wealth I'm just going to start getting checks in the mail. Doesn't work like that.
The law of attraction is a very watered down version of es and of esoteric principles where it's just one part of the equation. You have to have planning and action along with it as well. You have to have will, planning and action along with intention. Like the law of attraction is just the intention element. The intention element is helpful because it primes your unconscious. But you have to pair that with will, planning and action as well.
You have to have the will to accomplish it. You have to have the right plan to accomplish it. And you have to put it into action. So uh we have to be careful of that as well as meditation. Meditation there's so many positive effects with meditation. I'm not saying meditation is bad. There's so many positive effects meditation.
But I went to uh this group one time and they're like, "Oh, we're going to change the world. We're going to change the world. You know, there's so many problems going on in the world." And so what was their master plan to change the world? Meditate. They're all going to meditate and like send their good vibes out there to stop all the wars. Oh, we're going to do that.
And they're like, "Oh, we're" and then and then on on this particular day, we're all going to meditate on these crystals and we're going to charge these crystals with our positive energy and they're they're like batteries now and these crystals will help will help change. No. Now, that's not to say meditation is bad. Meditation.
But do you see how this this this people see something that's wrong in the world and they feel guilty about it or they feel like they should do something about it or they have empathy. And if you have something like that like oh prayer or meditation that becomes a big excuse like oh people feel like they're accomplishing something so they don't actually do something that would help you know they don't actually go out and do something that would help change the world because they feel it eases the psychological tension because it releases that psychological tension because they feel like they're doing something. Oh well I'm I'm doing my part because I'm
praying about it or I'm doing my part because I'm meditating about it. That's not helping. That's not helping. So, and and again, I want to point out, I'm not saying meditation is bad. There's a lot of positive things that meditation can do, but we have to not use it as an excuse uh to be lazy or to not actually put work in. Same thing with transforming the self. Like, it takes a lot of work to transform the self.
Meditation can play a part in that, but it's just one piece of the pie. And if someone's just like, "Oh, I'm just going to meditate all day long." um there's so many other elements that one has to put in as well and that that that then becomes a hindrance. So we have to be we have to be careful about how we approach these things, how we understand these things and how we apply these things to our lives.
And anyway, let's let let's continue um with this. So Leave says the Satanist realizing that anything he gets is of his own doing takes command of the situation instead of praying to God for it to happen. So uh again same same sort of idea. The Satanist realizes that he's in control or they are in control. They are in command and they're able to it's not praying to God isn't going to do a thing.
And then Lebe says, "Positive thinking and positive action add up to results." Again, really great. So, a lot of people think that Satanists are all evil and dark and and scary and and there's definitely some very controversial stuff in in the book of Satan uh or the Satanic Bible, but you can see here that there's also positivity as well. P positive thinking and positive action adds up to results.
And this is and so LE's LE's brand of magic is actually much more powerful than something like the law of attra law of attraction. We'll we'll later on if you want by the way put in the comments if you want to hear what satanic magic is all about because I'll do some videos on satanic magic if if you'd like.
But satanic magic is actually a lot more powerful than something like the law of attraction because you'll notice here uh Leave says positive thinking and what positive action add up to results whereas you know something like the law of attraction really emphasizes positive thinking.
They might throw in like little bits of action here and there but that's not the focus. It's very much on just like, oh yeah, just you'll just manifest it by making a vision board and positive affirmations and like attracts like. That that's just that's just one piece of the pie, one one piece of the one part of the equation. Um anyway, let's continue here.
Leave says the Satanist knows that praying does no good and confessing to another being like himself accomplishes even less and is furthermore degrading. So going against the Catholic idea of confession as a Christian, I never had to do that. Uh but yeah, I mean I I'd imagine that could feel very degrading. I've never had that experience. I've never had to do that. But um uh I I I could certainly see that.
And I I had I had done like a confession sort of at at like I I went to Bible camp a couple times. That was just a brainwashing center. Let me let me tell you that. Uh but yeah, there there wasn't ever confession, but there was this thing where you would go to the campfire and confess your sins and throw in a a stick of wood, I guess, to like signify getting rid of the sin or something.
It wasn't mandatory, but I did it because I was a good a good little Christian boy. Uh I, you know, I wasn't someone just going through the motions. I that's what always annoys me when people like well you weren't really a Christian or you were no I I was a very dedicated uh Christian and I I tried my hardest and so yeah anyway I we didn't have something like confession but I kind of get it because I had something that was in that ballpark I suppose so and and and by the way that wasn't just to like a single person that was to every that was everyone at the campfire that you were confessing your sins to
basically So, so like it's a lot of, you know, it wasn't just uh just like the a priest or something. It was a lot of people. Um anyway, so when a Satanists when a Satanist does something wrong, he realizes it is natural to make a mistake and if he is truly sorry about what he has done, he will learn from it and take care not to do the same thing again. Great. Totally on bow with that.
I think that's fantastic. And by the way, do you see how the book of Lucifer is laying out the philosophy of Satanism where the book of Satanism was more just a criticism of Christianity and God, this still obviously contains a criticism, but you can tell that the uh structure of the philosophy itself is also being laid out.
People confess their sins so that they can clear their conscience conscience and be free to go out and sin again. Usually the same sin. And um this is also a good point. So he's basically saying Satanists when they realize they did something wrong, they they admit they do something wrong, they're sorry about it, and they they try not to do it again and try to learn from it.
Whereas he's saying uh religious people will just go and confess to get rid of the guilt and then go out and sin and sin and sin again. And uh I think that he he he mentioned this cuz he cuz Leave worked at a carnival and he mentioned this. He talked about how he would see men come watch uh women taking off their clothes at the carnival and then he would see them on Sunday with their families asking for forgiveness and then the next week they'd be right back at the carnival doing the same thing again and again and again.
So he was he he was very much had firsthand experience of that hypocrisy. So this is this is um interesting point. So Ly says the Catholics believe that the Protestants are doomed to hell simply because they do not belong to the Catholic Church. In the same way many splinter groups of the Christian faith such as the evangelical or revivalist churches believe that the Catholics are heathens who worship graven images.
Even though the god in all these religions is basically the same, each regard the way chosen by the other as reprehensible. And to top it all off, religionists actually pray for one another. So Ley is basically saying even like Catholics think that Christians are going to hell. Protestant Christians and Protestant Christians think that Catholics are going to go to hell.
And so they the each denomination thinks the other. So it's even within the religion itself, it's completely splintered and they're all praying for each other. And that's absolutely true. Being raised as a we were considered non-denominational, but yeah, we thought that Catholics were um because they would like pray to Mary and like, "Oh, you can't pray to Mary. Jesus is the only one you can pray to.
" And so, yeah, we we we pretty much believe that a lot of people who were part of these different denominations were going to go to hell, which is which is really and he's calling it all hypocritical and and BS and splintered. One thing I do want to point out though about this is uh like even when I saw even when I put out my video on Satanism versus Luciferianism, I I saw a lot of fights in the comments between different, you know, whether it be like Satanists and Luciferians and or or or just like oh no, I I don't know. I
just saw a lot of lot of fighting. And the thing is is that those who are uh pagan, you know, it really should be about uniting, you know, don't don't don't get so caught up in the system that it that it becomes a divisive religion like mainstream Christianity and and right-hand path religion. You know, it really should be about unity and seeing common ground.
So for example like Satanists and Luciferians they they believe different things but so what they shouldn't uh be opposed to one another like for me I am not a Satanist I'm not saying there are certain things that I disagree when it comes to Satanism uh disagree with uh it's it's it has a lot of hedonistic elements it's a materialist philosophy it's atheistic but I'm not out there being divisive with Satanists I think that Satanism as a very it can be very cathartic for a lot of people and have an important role to play and so I'm not out there being divisive about it and so we my my point is is
that for all those who are part of you know these different things try and get along with each other please pretty please like don't we we have enough crazy religions in the world fighting amongst each other let alone people like arguing about the definition between Satan and Lucifer yes I have a certain definition of of Lucifer and I have a certain definition of Satan. But if someone comes along and says, "Oh, well, I define Satan this way and I define Lucifer this way.
" I'm not going to be like, "Well, [ __ ] you, you dumb idiot." I'm just going to be like, "Oh, okay. Well, that's not how I see it, but that's how you see it. That's that's fine. That's that's that's perfectly that's cool." Just like for example, I interpret Christ as Christ consciousness and being an enlightened state of mind, whereas a Satanist interprets Christ as, you know, uh, something totally evil and and despicable and a servant of God and and all this.
And that's a perfectly defined, you know, coming from that angle that that makes sense. I'm not going to argue with him about it. Anyway, my point is like, let's let's get along, okay? I mean, we really really should. That's that's what it's all about. It's about unity and coming together, recognizing commonalities and celebrating diversity as long as we're all on the same page about major issues, right? As long as we're on the same page about human rights and human decency and um creating a better world, things like that. So anyway, uh so so I like this. He's he's talking
about people who pray for one another. And Leave says, "What a what a seringly polite way of saying I I hate your guts." He's saying, "Prayer is a polite way of saying, "I hate your guts." It's the thinly disguised device known as praying for your enemies. And that's that's true as well. It's so insulting when someone comes up to you and they're like, "Oh, I'm I'm going to pray for you.
" That is so insulting um for for a number of reasons. First of all, it's just very intrusive because you know, let's say your family is like, "Oh, I'm going to pray for you." What if what if you to them were like, "Oh, I'm going to pray to Satan for you or I'm going to I'm going to do a satanic ritual for you.
" Well, that would be super offensive, right? Like, "Oh my god, you're so that's so off." Well, it's it's just the same thing. It's it's the same thing that they're doing to you, just from the flip side. So, it's it's completely unbalanced and unfair and very intrusive in my opinion. If you don't care, doesn't matter.
But I I find it to be uh intrusive and offensive. And plus, on top of that, like Le's saying that it's a way of saying, "I hate your guts." Is because when you say, "I'm going to pray for you." What you're essentially saying is there's something wrong with you. You're [ __ ] Like, oh my god. Oh [ __ ] I'm going to pray for you, you [ __ ] horrible person.
So when you say, "I'm going to pray for you," that's implying that you're broken. Because that's what the Christian religion is about. All humans are broken, dirty, sinful, and flawed. So when someone says, "I'm going to pray for you," I know that they're looking at me as a dirty, broken, sinful, flawed, disgusting piece of trash.
And so for uh I'm going to pray for you is an insult and a disguised way of saying uh I I hate your guts. And and I've seen this as well, too, like I get I get a lot of comments, a lot of terrible comments from religious people. They'll say the the most awful things and and they'll be like, "But I'll pray for you, but I'm but you're in my prayers.
" It's like, "Fuck." Oh, man. So stupid. Um anyway, so uh Ly continues by saying, "Nevertheless, if a man has not lived his life in accordance with the regulations of his faith, he can at the last minute call a clergy man to his deathbed for final absolution." That's the point that I made before. Leave is pointing out the hypocrisy here where Leave is saying that you can have the most horrible person, the worst person in this world, the worst person in the world, mass murderer, and if at the very last minute he confesses and believes in
God, he can go to heaven. Le's pointing out how ridiculous it is. Uh but but here's here's an interesting point Le makes uh in in that context. Um, Leave says the Yazidis, a sect of devil worshippers take a different viewpoint. So these are those because remember Le and Satanism is atheistic. They don't believe that Satanism is Satan is real.
But this sect of devil worshippers do. And this is an interesting point that Ley makes. He says they believe that God is all powerful but also all forgiving. And so accordingly they feel that it is the devil whom they must please as he is the one who rules their lives while here on earth.
They believe so strongly that God will for forgive all their sins once they have been given the last rights that they feel no need to concern themselves with the opinion God may hold of them while they live. So that's very interesting. And so these devil worshippers are essentially like, "Okay, well, God's all loving and God's all forgiving, and the devil is the one that [ __ ] with us while we're alive.
So we're going to worship and please the devil so we can have good lives. And then right before we die, we're going to ask for forgiveness because God's going to forgive us. So we might as well do that." So that's that's that's Lee's point. Um that's not part of Ley and Satanism, but that's what uh you know, interesting point. And uh Leave says, "With all the debates about whether or not God is dead, if he isn't, he had better have Medicare.
" Uh so let's let me see where we're at here. Okay. Uh a couple more thing because I because I want to talk about Nietze and the death of God. But let me see. All right. Just one more thing that I want to read here. So this section is called the God you save may be yourself. And Leave says all religions of a spiritual nature are inventions of man. He has created an entire system of gods with nothing more than his carnal brain.
Just because he has an ego and cannot accept it, he has to externalize it into some great spiritual device which he calls God. And so I agree that a lot of religions have externalized the self into uh an external being uh a fantasy being where I talk about this a lot in my work where it's power self-p projection. You're giving away your power to an externalized uh figure.
Whether that's a god or a celebrity or a politician, you can project what should be yourself onto someone else and then worship that figure. That's what's happening. Uh but see, I do not agree that all religions of a spiritual nature are inventions of of man. So, so this is where you know Satanism is very materialist. They believe that matter is the only thing exists.
The physical world is all there is where we can understand of course that there's a metaphysical existence. And that's what my second book metrationalism is all about. Uh is about understanding the metaphysical aspect of reality, the immaterial aspect of reality rationally.
understanding that we are mathematical beings and eternal beings and there is more to reality than matter but we can understand it rationally not um not in terms of like having faith in some god in the sky but mathematically and through the principle of sufficient reason we can understand these ideas so this partic yeah I don't I don't agree with that uh if man insists on externalizing his true self in the form of god then why fear his true self and fearing god why praise his true self and praising god why remain externalized from God in order to engage in ritual and religious
ceremony in his name. Could it be that when he closes the gap between himself and his God, he sees the demon of pride creeping forth, the very embodiment of Lucifer appearing in his midst? He no longer can view himself in two parts, the carnal and the spiritual, but sees them as one.
And then the abysmal horror discovers that they are only the carnal and always were. Okay, so there's some points in here that I agree with, some that I don't. The parts that I do agree with is he's saying that is he's saying that uh when an individual who is religious sees the gap between himself and God closing meaning when the religious person the religious person uh well let me continue.
He sees the demon of pride creeping forth the very embodiment of Lucifer. So basically the religious person does not see themsel as divine. They do not close the gap between them and God because they see that as the epitome of evil, the very embodiment of Lucifer. Because remember Lucifer is the liberator. Lucifer uh wanted to overthrow God.
Lucifer told humanity that they could become gods. So Lucifer represents apotheiois and becoming god. And so he's saying that religious people see that as the ultimate sin and thus they don't close that gap. And so yeah, there's this unbridgegable gap between you and the divine in mainstream religion.
Uh which is super ironic that mainstream religion actually strips your divinity away from you and it and it places an uh unbridgeidgeable gap between you and God rather than uniting you with the divine. It breaks you off from the divine. And so that that's a great point and they've made it the ultimate evil and the ultimate sin uh to to be associated with the divine to understand oneself as divine. So I agree with that.
Uh but then Le says when he closes the gap they unite the carnal and the spiritual as one and then realizes that only the carnal exists. So basically he's saying oh like human representing car carnality and god representing uh spirituality when he closes the gap he combines them and as one but then realizes that only the carnal is what exists. Only the flesh is what exists. So basically god isn't real.
God doesn't exist. The flesh is all that there is. The carnal is all that there is. So in closing the gap they realize that spirituality and god is an illusion and that only uh human nature is what is true. Uh so so this I this I don't agree with. Um I agree with the first point but I believe that we are that that the flesh is just a projection of a more fundamental mathematical reality, a reality of energy or reality of frequency.
So there very much is a what you could call a spiritual or immaterial or mental aspect to reality and this is just mind. Our mind is the subjective element of reality but also the objective element of reality in terms of its form. So it serves a dual purpose. It's kind of known as like the unity of subject and object in philosophy and Hegelian philosophy and some occult traditions uh as well.
It's known as the great work. the unification of subject object is the great work and things like Freemasonry etc. So um I I I disagree that the flesh and the carnal is the only thing that exists. I think that's a highly illogical and irrational position to take.
It's it becomes a religion of the senses and a religion of empiricism rather than understanding rationally and logically just like remember before I showed you how we can rationally know that God must exist or God does not exist uh logically and rationally the Christian God um not just any conception of God but specifically the Christian God. We can know that God logically cannot exist. Well likewise we can logically know that reality is fundamentally mathematical and immaterial and that we are eternal.
Now I can't explain all that right now because it would take a very long time. It's not simple like understanding you know the idea of of disproving the Christian God is pretty simple. It's a pretty basic idea. It's it's you know not something that takes a lot of brain power.
Uh but this this is actually something and and again um it's in my second book. Uh there's if you want information on that there's 500 damn pages of it. It's more than you want. You'll be like oh please stop talking about it because there's so much in there. Um but anyway, so I that's one point I disagree with.
Um and then Ley says, "When all religious faith in lies have waned, it is because man has become closer to himself and farther from God, closer to the devil, he may come forth in splendor, proclaiming, I am a Satanist, bow down, for I am the highest embodiment of human life." Uh so I mean, I appreciate the way that this is written and it's a very, you know, shakes things up.
up. It's fiery, but you can see it is very much embodying the satanic archetype of bow before me. I am the highest embodiment of human life. And I don't really take that perspective. I don't think we should be asking people to bow before us. And and I know even even in like a metaphorical way.
I I don't think that that is the right because because that this is when you start getting to the idea of like we are the masters of reality. And we are and there's nothing wrong with acknowledging that we're the masters of reality. But a lot of people who get up in a cult stuff don't understand the whole picture and then start oh we are the masters and the the the petty lowly conscious humans who can't possibly understand what we're talking about should be the ones to serve us or or those poor stupid humans couldn't possibly understand this information so we're going to hide this information
from them or not tell them because they're too dumb to be able to understand. I don't like that. Instead of the archetype of the master, I I much prefer the archetype of the teacher because the archetype of the teacher, a true teacher, what does a true teacher want? A true teacher wants nothing more than their student to surpass them.
Like that's the sign of a great teacher. And that's what all true teachers, a teacher wants. They care about their students and they want to help their students so much so that if the student learns so well that they become better than the teacher, the teacher is like, "That's awesome. I'm so proud of you." Rather than a master.
master doesn't want the the the the lower figures to become higher than the master. That's not typically that's not, you know, you could have a more positive interpretation, but I think you see what I mean. I I prefer the uh archetype of of of the teacher which I associate with Christ and Lucifer because my interpretations of Christ and Lucifer are the same archetype that they represent wisdom, the liberator bringing knowledge and understanding to humanity to reach higher consciousness which is very different than the satanic interpretation of Lucifer who's still uh
bringing knowledge but it's but it's knowledge of the satanic stuff uh rather than knowledge to reach higher consciousness and understand existence because Satanists deny metaphysical reality in general. Levy and Satanist tend tend to deny that. Um, but what I want to bring in here for a minute is to talk about uh Nichch's concept of the death of God because I think you'll find a lot of similarities here and I want to talk about it a bit because like I said I uh I I was influenced by Nian philosophy well before I found I I got I I heard about Satanism. Well, I mean I
heard about Satanism but like read the Satanic Bible and really started to look into it. and uh Nietzein philosophy. There's there's a lot of commonalities between it and Satanism, but it doesn't have the trappings of Satanism. It doesn't you it doesn't use those archetypes. And I I just didn't really like I'm not a huge fan of the archetype of Satan.
Then that's just my choice. If if you if that's an empowering archetype for you, uh that's totally fine. Um, and and I think that it can be used in a positive way, but when balanced with other archetypes like I would balance the satanic arch archetype with the luciferian archetype like I would balance the two, not uh like have one like just focus on one because then that's archetypal possession where a very specific anyway I don't want to get into all that but anyway um so nian philosophy was very attractive to me because it was very
powerful and what I love about Nietinian philosophy is that it's about going beyond human and and you don't find that in Satanism. Satanism is embracing human nature, indulgence, accepting carnal desire. And there's nothing wrong with any of that. But the very strong main emphasis in Nietian philosophy is becoming the highest form of yourself that you can possibly be. So much so that you're not even human anymore.
NZ said what is great in man is that he is a bridge and not a destination a bridge between the ape and the overman. So Nze was saying that humans are just a transitory phase and the only thing good about them is that they're leading to something better. They came from apes and are will become the uber manch or the overman.
Um, and so you can see that it's a very empowering philosophy about overcoming. And that's been a big thing theme theme in my life. I've been constantly overcoming limitations and barriers and boundaries and creating myself. And I think we'd have a much better world if people were constantly creating themselves and transforming themselves. And so I don't agree with everything in in Nietinian philosophy by any means.
I think there are some things that aren't great about it, especially as metaphysical positions. But I think there's a lot of great stuff that can be learned from Nichze when synthesized with other philosophers and other ideas. U so anyway um I'm going to read to you this quote by Frederick Nichze.
Uh so so Nietz declared the death of God in his book thus spake Zerahustra. And it goes like this. God is dead. God remains dead and we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was the holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives? Who will wipe this blood off us? What water is there for us to clean ourselves? What festivals of atonement? What sacred games shall we have to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we ourselves not become gods simply to
appear worthy of it? And then another quote by Nze is once again, God is dead, but considering the state the species man is in, there will perhaps be caves for ages yet in which his shadow will be shown. All right. So, so let's let's talk about this a little bit. Obviously, Nichze isn't saying that God is literally dead.
Some people interpret it to mean that, but I mean wrongly. That's not what he meant. He didn't mean that at all. But what it basically is saying is that the belief in God or a higher power um especially the Christian God lost its power and relevance in people's lives. So this idea was destroyed.
So when he's talking about the death of God, he's pointing to the collapse of traditional religious values and beliefs and the rise of a more scientific way of thinking. So when he says we have killed him, he means that this shift was driven by human actions. It's our actions that caused this shift to occur through things like the enlightenment, empiricism, rational thinking, a focus on individualism.
So when he says all these things like how can we bear this, what what must we do to invent to atone for all this? What he's basically saying is can humanity handle the responsibility that comes with creating our own values and meaning. Basically what gave humans meaning was God and religion. It told them what was right, what was wrong, gave them rituals.
It gave them meaning. It gave them purpose. So Nichze is saying with the death of God comes the loss of meaning and purpose and ushers in an age of nihilism or meaninglessness. And Nichzche's antidote to this. A lot of people say that Nichzche was a a nihilist. I don't see that because Nze hated nihilism.
Nze saw nihilism as a scourge and a curse, but he saw that it was coming. And so he saw that something must replace nihilism. Something meaning and purpose must be interjected into reality. And Nish's answer to that was the uber the overman where it was about uh we create we become our own gods. Basically we create our own values, our own morals, our own traditions, our own ideas and and create our own purpose and our own meaning in life.
Now my position is is different here. I believe that there is inherent purpose in me because remember Nietze was very against all metaphysics and was more about like the here and now and uh but my beliefs are that this is a projection of a mathematical reality and that reality is inherently meaningful or teological uh meaning purposeful and that I don't have time to get into all of it right now but long story short that the true purpose of life is to understand it and to enjoy it. To understand it means to understand our own nature. Know thyself. Know thyself
and you will know the universe and the gods. To realize that we are literally the gods of this reality. And then to enjoy our creation. And the more that we know and understand what we are where we are and why we are here, the better experiences that we can build for ourselves.
So, we are here to have meaningful experiences, beautiful experiences, beautiful creations, and understand ourselves in our world better as the literal divine gods of this reality. And I'm not meaning that in like a metaphorical way. I mean I mean kind of, but I don't mean like, oh well, we're gods because, you know, we we take responsibility for our own actions.
Of course, we should take responsibility for our own actions. But I mean, we are literally eternal mathematical entities whose frequency patterns form the underlying structure and ground of existence and that these particular avatars are just a particular way that we are having this localized experience at this moment in space and time.
Uh but anyway, uh but but I still but do you see this this powerful idea that NZ is putting forth where we have killed God. So now we must take responsibility into our own hands and create our own values and meaning. So when he says we must become gods, he's saying that now we have the job of defining our own existence and morality. That's was something that God did before, but now it's our job to do that.
So um and then and then going on he says but considering the state that species that the species of man is in there will perhaps be caves for ages yet in which his shadow will be shown. So basically here N is saying that even though a lot of religious ideas and metaphysical ideas are being eroded away and destroyed God being dead.
He admits that religious beliefs are still going to stick around for a while. So this shadow of God represents the idea that the influence of these ideas uh are going to be there for a while. They might continue to hold power in society because it's that hard for humanity to move beyond them. So he's saying God is dead, but considering the state that the species man is in, in other words, being dumb, there will perhaps perhaps be caves yet for ages yet in which his shadows will be shown.
In other words, even though we have shown that God does not exist, there are still people who are going to believe in God. And um and it's interesting that he uses the idea of cave. He says uh there will be caves for ages yet in which his shadow will be shown. A lot of great um metaphor going on here where you know cave represents uh you know sort of like a primitive existence. So oh it's it's in the caves.
It's in the primitive aspects that God's shadow will remain not in the enlightened aspects but in in the cave aspects. And this is also in my opinion a reference to Plato's allegory of the cave. So Plato's allegory of the cave. I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with.
It's about people who were born in a cave and chained up in a cave their entire life. They've never been outside this cave and they've always been looking at a wall and they've always seen shadows on the wall. That's it. That's the only thing that they've known their entire life is the shadows on the wall.
So, they believe that the shadows are real cuz that's all they know. That's all they've seen is the shadows on the wall. And and then Plato, if you I'm sure most of you have heard of Plato's allegory of the cave. If you haven't, go look it up cuz it's a really good story. It's basically about how one of the prisoners turns around finally and looks and sees that that the shadows aren't real, that there's actually um people, you know, they there' be like shadows of let's say like a bunny rabbit or something. Well, he'd look behind him and see that well, there's a person with a stick with a
with a rabbit on it that's holding it in front of a fire. And and so the shadow isn't real. It's that this illusion is being cast by uh this cut cutout of a bunny on a stick being held in front of a shadow to trick them and fool them. And so he he sees that and then thinks, "Oh, well that's what's real.
" But then he ends up, long story short, he ends up climbing outside of the cave and going into the real the real world. And then he's he's f at first blinded by the uh by the sun. And this is the idea of when you first reach enlightenment, it's very disorienting. But when his eyes adjust, he looks around and then lo and behold, he sees an actual rabbit.
And then so it wasn't the shadow, it wasn't the cutout, it was this thing up above that is the true and real thing where because of course we know reality itself to be an illusion. But uh in in a certain way, certain interpretation, but uh in this allegory, the sun represents the illumination of the good of the true of the real world.
Uh so anyway, long story short, uh in my opinion, Nichze is probably referencing this where he says for ages yet the shadows of God will be shown in caves and that there will still be people falling for this illusion and it will still greatly affect the world. And I think we can look around and say that his prediction was pretty damn on point.
So when we look at all this together, uh I I you know I I I find this to be you know the satanic philosophy to be interesting and I definitely see its value for sure. Personally I prefer Nietin philosophy for its idea of self-trcendence rather than uh just focused more on indulgence in human nature or embracing human nature.
there's a lot more of a of a to me it's a lot more uh powerful and and and strong like I said I don't agree with everything nature said u and I do find a lot of interesting ideas in the satanic Bible um but by the way this is definitely not the end of the book of Lucifer um the book of Lucifer is continuing to lay out uh the uh philosophy of Satanism and so the sections that are coming up that we will continue next week. If you want to see them, remember, put put them in the comments if you want to see them. Here's the chapter headings.
Evidence of a new satanic age. Hell, the devil and how to sell your soul. Love and hate. Satanic sex. So, the there's still a lot more to go in the book of Lucifer. Um, like I said, we're running out of time here, but if you want to see that, tell me in the comments below, and we will continue reading this. Uh, check out the whole playlist on the Satanic Bible.
Check out my video on Lucifer versus uh, Satanism versus Luciferianism to understand the Luciferian interpretation of Lucifer. And yeah, I highly recommend checking out Nietian philosophy. Very inspiring as well. We'll probably read some more on my if you want me to read some Nietian philosophy on my channel, tell me in the comments and we'll do some live streams dedicated to Nietian philosophy if you'd like to see that.
We could read the Antichrist or Beyond Good and Evil or or any of these books. Uh once again, if you're interested in my work, check out Neo Genesis Dawn of the New Mind.
