The NonEssential Anton Long


Being Some Esoteric Scribblings by Anton Long of Thee Sinister Order of Nine Angles Thingy

Introduction Sinister Mastery A Sinister Prcis To aspire to to gain Mastery of The Dark Arts is to experience, and to learn the lessons of self-honesty and self-control; to strive, to dream, to quest, to exceed expectations. To move easily, gracefully, from the Light to the Dark, from Dark to Light, until one exists between yet beyond both, treating them (and yourself) for the imposters they (and you) are.

Mundane or Sinister? The Standards of The Sinister Way So, you want to join us? You want to become one of the sinister few? Part of our sinister Order of Nine Angles family? One of those who understand who know mundanes for the expendable resource they are. One of those who knows or who feels, in a wordless way in their very being, that we can be far more than we are; one of those who knows, who understands, or who feels, in a wordless way in their very being, that all laws, past and present, are restrictions a means of mundane control, devised and implemented by mundanes in a mundane attempt to prevent we sinister few from turning our lives into a succession of ecstasies. One of those defiant ones who would rather

die than submit, and who understands that words are a means, not the essence. Know then that you have to prove and test yourself taking yourself to and beyond your physical and emotional and moral limits. If you succeed, fine. If you fail no excuses, you failed. You can try again, and again, until you succeed. Or you can accept the truth that failure makes you, marks you, as mundane. No excuses. Are you, then, ready to test yourself? To defy, to overcome? To be heretical? If so, here are the challenges. Here are the minimal standards you must meet to become of us, to join us. And if you do not desire to so test yourself, to meet, to surpass, the standards, we set then go elsewhere. If you somehow in some way want to debate or to dispute these standards of ours, then you can go elsewhere. We are not interested in your excuses, your mundane words for these are minimal entry standards for our traditional sinister nexions. For you to join us for you to become a member of our sinister elite, to become a genuine Initiate of our Seven-Fold Sinister Way you have to undertake the following. Physical Standards Train for and undertake all three of the following physical tasks the absolute minimum standards (for men) are: (a) walking thirty-two miles, in hilly terrain, in under seven hours while carrying a pack weighing at least 30 lbs; (b) running twenty-six miles in four hours; (c) cycling two hundred or more miles in twelve hours. [Those who have already achieved such goals in such activities should set themselves more demanding goals.] For women, the minimum acceptable standards are: (a) walking twenty-seven miles in under seven hours while carrying a pack weighing at least 15 lbs. (b) running twenty-six miles in four and a half hours; (c) cycling one hundred and seventy miles in twelve hours. If you cannot achieve all these minimal standards you failed. Mental Standards Construct and learn to play both the basic and the advanced Star Game. If you cannot do this you failed. Moral Standards

Find, and test (according to our sinister guidelines) a suitable mundane, and then cull that mundane. If you cannot do this you failed. Heretical Standards Become, for a minimum of six months, a public advocate of one of the following modern heresies radical (Jihadi) Islam, or NationalSocialism or Eco-Anarchism or so-called "Holocaust Denial". If you cannot do this or fail to understand why these are genuine modern heresies you failed. No excuses; no debates. You are either of us, or you are mundane. 121 Year of Fayen

Baeldraca From Causal to Acausal Terror Some Questions for Anton Long

There seemed, a whiles back now, to be some dissent within the ONA or rather, among those associated with the ONA about the direction the ONA seemed to be taking, and Im thinking here of matters like the issue of sinister tribes, and the inux of young people, some with a bad ass attitude. This seemed to involve people taking sides on certain issues, and some people leaving. Whats your take on this? As I wrote not that long ago to a seeker - There is no conict, only the appearance of conict, because the conict, esoterically, such as it was and is, and probably will be again, is in many ways not only both a test and a problem arising from causal thinking, but also an opportunity. A test of character, for them, and a problem to be solved by an acausal understanding, part of which is Aeonic perspective. An opportunity to learn, to overcome, and thence to change ones self. Understood exoterically, such conflict has its genesis in the way of the ego and

of hubris (in the character of Homo Hubris) and thus in that lack of self-awareness and lack of self-criticism that bedevils Magian Occultism and those who come to the Order of Nine Angles with the character of Homo Hubris and the attitudes inherent in Magian Occultism. In simple terms, one either is mis-directed by (and thus personally affected by) this appearance of conflict sometimes manifest by certain unenlightened individuals becoming rather sectarian in a Nazarene type way or one apprehends (or developes the apprehension) to perceive beyond such a temporary causal appearance. The reality is that a majority assume or come to believe that such conict, and the disruption that often but not always seems to accompany it, represents some failure of the ONA, or of those currently involved with the ONA rather than a failure of themselves; a lack of self-awareness; a lack of esoteric abilities; a lack of self-honesty; and certainly a lack of acausal knowing. So, some individuals become disillusioned with the ONA, or with and by someone or some many who may be associated with the ONA at a particular time and leave, silently, or, as sometimes occurs, publicly, making their views, such as they are, publicly known. But the failure is theirs. The lack is theirs internally, esoterically, personally. But of course they themselves cannot perceive this, let alone understand it. For if they did, they would alchemically change themselves by the sinister praxis that is the essence of the ONA. This is one reason why there is not, never has been, and never will be, any pronouncements by me, or by anyone from the inner ONA, about such matters, or about the individuals who may be involved with such matters, or any such Magian thing as someone being expelled from the ONA, or any organization or group being proscribed, and so on. All we may do, occasionally, is oer some advice to one or more of those involved, if they be deemed promising or worth the eort; and often in its beginnings this advice is in the form of a personal test, for them: to see if they themselves can see the intent behind the test and have the insight, the potential, to see it as a test. For them it is an enigma enwrapped in something with the appearance of something else, and in the majority of instances it is only the rst outermost appearance that they see, and feel. This type of testing of others is a well-tried, ancient, method that works at weeding out the dross. But no one person, no group of people however small or large, or however esoterically advanced they may consider themselves, in their delusion, to be can disrupt the ONA, or schism from the ONA, or consider themselves to be the real ONA, or a revival of the genuine ONA, due to the acausal (living) nature of that entity known in the Earthly-realm of the causal as The Dicult

ONA. For the Order of Nine Angles only guides; only inspires; only presents a Way, a vision; only reveals a particular and sinister praxis. The individual as we have publicly said for well over thirty years has to change, grow; has to accept and overcome challenges; has to be sinister and apply to themselves certain techniques, esoteric and exoteric. The effort is theirs; the joining of them to our Sinister Kollective is done by them, not by us by that inner process of difficult, dangerous, personal, and time-consuming alchemical change that is the essence of every genuine esoteric Way. Thus, when someone or some many leave we do not care. Some of them may or may not, by the passing of causal Time, return to our Way and thus re-engage with our sinister praxis. If they do that is most excellent. If they do not we do not care, for they are lost to us; just more failures among so many. Thus, when someone, having so left, forms their own group or organization or sets up their own way (even if in apparent competition with us) we do not care. Some of them may or may not have learned something from their association with us; although most of them will merely continue with their self-delusion, having made many excuses to themselves for their failure to be sinister in the world of mundanes, and their failure to accept and overcome the practical challenges that are part of our sinister Way. Some will even consider themselves adepts, and start ponticating (often at great and turgid length) about esoteric matters rather than getting on and being sinister, in the real world. It is being a Baeldraca, in the real world in the world of mundanes that matters: terrifying them, changing their world, inciting others, and Presencing The Dark. As I wrote recently, our people, our type, are those who already possess an embryonic sinister-changeling within themselves or who possess the potential to be able to alchemically create one within themselves: both have to work hard, for many years, to nurture that inner changeling, and give it birth in the acausal darkness within and then let their Baeldraca loose upon this causal world. I noticed in recent years that a lot of apparently new esoteric info is being given out, by you and here Im talking about such matters as Rounwytha, Dark-Empathy, Baphomet as Dark Goddess, even Baeldraca and the like. Is this a new learning, by you, some additions, after forty and more years of a sinister seeking, of engagement with the Left Hand Path? Or you just releasing hitherto withheld esoteric traditions? Mostly, the latter, although I have made some additions, such as The Star Game, sinister tribes, Dreccs, The Law of The Sinister-Numen (The Sinister

Code), and giving an ontology to and explication of, and even naming, the current mortal apprehension termed causal and acausal, and how Thee Nine Angles Thingy (and thus nexions) relate thereto. I may also have possibly further developed, and named (and thus made more conscious), that esoteric manifestation known now as Dark Empathy, and some other stuff. But does it really matter? Who did what, when and why? Acausal perspective, methinks! It seems to matter to some; to many people. For many people consider that the whole thing the whole ONA, with its complexity and richness, uniqueness and originality is all your work, all your creation. What could, esotericallyspeaking, be termed your Great Work, your Word as Magus, and that talk of inherited traditions by some Lady Master is just a mythos you made up.
[ Anton Long smiles. ]

If some believe that, fine.

However, the Rounwytha named as such was part of the tradition I inherited, which tradition claimed there really were certain, special, ladies who possessed certain natural talents relating to a natural, now more ancient, way of seeing Life.
[ Anton Long smiles again. ]

But if they were indeed esoteric traditions, why didnt you previously publish them? Why the delay? For two practical reasons. First, because the aural traditions were not explicit, not having been written down and were often intimations of esoteric things that often no one before me had the language, let alone the words, to represent in a way which was clear, esoterically and exoterically. That is, such knowledge was often akin to a wordless insight into the causal workings of the Cosmos as, for example, a sublime piece of music may present us with such an intimation; or as an exquisite moment shared with an exquisite lady may present us with an intimation of the possibilities of Life. Thus, in some ways one of my tasks has been to give a more conscious form to such esoterically inherited intimations, and this has taken me a while. But I did try quite early on to present something of the essence of this wordless inherited esoteric knowledge. For instance, in the late nineteen seventies, according to particularly vulgar causal calender, and in respect of the Rounwytha, in the character of Rachael in Breaking The Silence Down, and in, a little while later, some other characters in The Deofel Quartet. Which leads me to the other practical reason for such a delay as you mention. And this is that such esoteric knowledge and understanding as I possessed and inherited I did communicate, in person, to a few individuals journeying along

the ONA thus carrying on the ancient tradition of so communicating such matters on an individual basis. I also had the in hindsight somewhat naive hope that someone else might fit all the published pieces together, and do what was necessary to explain and expound and even evolve such esoteric matters, especially as I was often engaged for months and sometimes for years on end in Presencing The Dark in a practical manner. Thus, I naively assumed that someone, or a few, might and for instance see the connexion between our Baphomet, and the feminine presencing that underlay the tradition I inherited (and thence a connexion to the Rounwytha), or even might make some connexion between Satanism and an outer form used for Aeonic purposes. But no one did these, or similar things. Which in some ways is rather an indictment on the lamentable lack of esoteric insight, and the lack of esoteric skills, today especially given how many people bleat about how they do possess such things. So, in the end, I had to do it all myself, often taking a time-out from Presencing The Dark. [ He smiles again. ] But this now, it seems, is beginning to change at last with some talented individuals involved with or associated with us making such connexions, either as result of their practical and esoteric experience of following our Way, or because they possess some of the qualities of a Rounwytha and have intuited such things. Indeed, a select few of these individuals have thankfully also begun to evolve that sinister presencing which is the ONA. Which is as it should be, given the living nature of the ONA. Thus, we have, for example, one perspicacious lady writing that the ladies involved with our sinister tribes manifest a necessary and important (antiMagian) aspect of the feminine archetype, and indeed represent a new, emerging, archetype What do you mean when you recently wrote that, one of our more immediate practical sinister aims is to move from causal to acausal terror Causal terror is fine, and indeed necessary for these particular causal times of ours given how the Magian ethos has spread and holds so many in thrall, but Aeonically by itself it does not produce significant, permanent, Change. It is just a means, one tactic, to evoke and invoke and incite the sinister in a manifestly causal way. A way to remind, and perchance to inspire a few to our praxis and thence to their own interior change and developement, with there thus being one more Sinister Adept born.

Acausal terror can however produce Aeonic Change, and among the most obvious examples of such acausal terror is The Return of The Dark Gods the practical egress, through a collocation of nexions, of particular acausal beings, bringing thus Chaos, terror, culling, and the dawn of our new Dark Imperium. But this is not an easy esoteric task to accomplish how many, for instance, among our sinister kollective can correctly perform esoteric chant (as in Naos) and possess a crystal of the right type and dimensions? How many even if they did, would undertake the complete Ceremony of Recalling with Sacrificial Conclusion, not once, but on the regular basis required to establish their own unique physical nexion? How many even understand the propitious season to undertake that dark Rite? How long before we have the nine physical nexions, in various geographical locations round the world, to undertake this dark Rite together in synchronicity and so by a joining of their rents in the fabric of the causal continuum produce that supra-nexion (that collocation of nexions) which allows for such egress of such acausal entities, returning thus The Dark Gods? [There is an intimation of, a clue to, the required nine nexions, for example, in an early work of ONA fiction, describing how two nexions, physically separated, are used.] Some other means of acausal terror currently more feasible are the spreading of our sinister tribes. The awakening of new dark archetypes in the psyche of mundanes (and the sinister feminine archetype mentioned above is one such). The drawing down of night and daytime terrors, through a nexion or nexions and our Dark Rites (such as the Rites of the Nine Angles), of dark acausal entities, symbolically re-presented in stories such as Eulalia: Dark Daughter of Baphomet and In The Sky of Dreaming. The performance of such Rites of ours some of which have been so constructed to release sinister energies to be presenced in that seemingly random manner that such sinister energies are or can be presenced, bringing thus a most splendid Presencing of The Dark and among such rites are the advanced form of The Star Game, Esoteric Chant correctly performed, and the use by mundanes of our Black Book of Satan and other such exoteric works But perhaps most easy of all is the insemination, and thence the release of, the Baeldraca within our own sinister kind and from those whom we can and should assimilate into our kollective, so that such Earth-born dark entities, incubated by us, can seep in ever increasing numbers out and into the world of mundanes, bringing forth from their sinister deeds a practical and ever-increasing presencing of our acausal terror. Can you explain what you mean by Baeldraca? No, for I still expect people to work some things out for themselves.

A Baleful Life How would you sum up your life? As a practical esoteric quest an inner alchemy combined with Presencing The Dark in practical ways. My nature has always been to prefer direct, personal, experience to theoretical study, to be curious and defiant, and to use the faculty of conscious Thought, the faculty of Reflexion, to try and understand myself, other human beings, and life in general. I have always felt since a quite early age that human beings have great potential and can and should consciously change themselves. Given my baleful nature, I was never satisfied with the answers of others, and had to find things out for myself, often the hard way. Your life certainly has been full of variety and a certain mystery. Is their a hidden pattern behind all this variety? Yes, and that is my following of a certain esoteric Way, what is traditionally termed The Seven Fold Sinister Way, from Initiate, to Internal Adept, to Master, and beyond. A progression of inner change due to outer experiences, both esoteric and exoteric. With these experiences including such esoteric techniques as Insight Rles, and practical sorcery. In essence, I have, for over forty years, been a Sorcerer of The Left Hand Path: someone who has employed both Internal and Aeonic Sorcery (Magick) to achieve certain goals and as a means to Presence The Dark, both within myself and exterior to myself. Thus, there is nothing really mysterious about me I have simply been someone dedicated to living a certain esoteric Way of Life. Someone who has made quite a few mistakes along the way often due to stubbornness or an unbalanced arrogance but who has been able to be honest with themselves, admit their mistakes, learn from them, and move on. Turning now to the Order of Nine Angles, it certainly seems to have changed over the past few years. Any comment? The ONA is now a new type of living-being, a new type of acausal sinister

entity manifesting in the causal, and thus one that affects, and which can affect, human beings, in a variety of ways, with many of these ways being new. It is not that we give the ONA life, as if it were a kind of anthropomorphic, separate, demonic or vampiric entity that lives o or feeds o us, but rather that, collectively, we are this new type of sinister life; we are a new nexion, accessing and presencing acausal energies, and which energies can change us, in an internal alchemical way, and also be directed, by us, to provoke causal changes, or which energies we may shape into some-Thing partly causal (a causal form; an archetype and so on) with this also partly acausal some-Thing we have conjured into causal existence then causing, bringing, Chaos, and change to others, or being disruptive of existing causal forms, and so on. Thus, the ONA is now a Kollective a nexus of certain human beings who share the same ethos, who possess the same baleful spirit, who possess within themselves the essence of the sinister and this Kollective, by its very nature, is free from Old Aeon restrictions, old causal forms. Which is why there is no Old Aeon type hierarchy in the ONA. No restricting formal authority. No one individual leading it, or claiming to run it. No one authorized to speak or write on its behalf (not even me); no titles awarded by someone to someone else. Not even any Old Aeon (and mundane) type membership. It we have broken the barriers of the past; we are not mundanes and do not imitate the ways of mundanes, and are now entering a new phase of human life where there are quite dierent ways of living, of doing things, to the ones we have previously known. Expressed in a simple but somewhat inexact similitude, the ONA has now become the young, sinister, capricious daughter, of the founder of the ONA, who has grown up, left home and is now living her own life. No doubt she will make some mistakes, but she has the intelligence, the character, the arte, the ability, to learn from these mistakes, from her experience, and so will move on, and evolve, and form her own family. Would you say that something like the Complete Guide to the Sinister Way, the traditional approach, is still relevant? Yes, certainly, for many people need a map, some guidebook, drawn or produced by those who have gone that way before them. As mentioned in several ONA texts, the traditional Seven Fold Sinister Way, with its Grades, its training techniques, its Insight Rles, its physical tests, is a guide, a map, produced by those who have already travelled along the Sinister Way and reached that strange, wyrdful, destination that lies beyond the Abyss.

10 of 59

While such a map, such a guidebook, is not essential, not strictly necessary, it can be exceedingly useful in shortening the time-scale of those who subsequently travel the same route, or who seek the same destination by a different route. My own life is one example of someone travelling without a good map, without a guidebook; an example of someone who pushed on, into (for him) uncharted territory, and who after many trials and tribulations, after over forty years of travelling and exploring, finally reached the place he set out to find. Thus, in one sense, the ONA is the map, the guidebook, I produced as a result of my travels, my exploration Yet, the ONA has now evolved to become much more than that much more than simply some guide, some map, I produced, for others. The ONA has become far more than one individual named Anton Long. It has become, as mentioned above, a living-being, that is, a living Kollective, a sinister nexus composed of sinister nexions, with these nexions consisting of independent individuals, of sinister groups (such as Traditional Nexions), of sinister tribes, of Balobians, and so on. This change, this evolution, of the ONA is necessary, welcome; exactly what should occur. But the map, the guidebook, I produced are still there, still part of this living, changing, evolving, ONA, and still useful and relevant, which those interested can use to guide them along their own sinister journey if they choose to use such a map, such a guidebook. Expressed simply, these particular esoteric means, this map and guidebook, are one way to produce more and sinister Adepts in a shorter time than it took me. But didnt you inherit a map, a guide, from the Lady Master who guided you? Yes, but it wasnt all that useful when I came to use it. It was rather like those ancient maps which were not drawn to scale, which were in black and white, which had a number of charting errors, which had loads of gaps with the legend Here Be Dragons, and which more often than not lacked the names of places, and which did not give topographical features. So, I went out and made a new map, charting my progress along the way. A scale map, in colour, with grid references, with places named; with topographical features highlighted, and so on. This took a while several decades, in fact. Any regrets?

11 of 59

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

Regret is a causal limitation, involving a certain causal apprehension; and redolent of that mode of causal being which constrains us, as individuals, and has constrained us, as a species. Instead of this old, limiting, causal way, one has to open the nexion within ones being, and perceive and feel things in a more acausal manner. That is, one has to: (1) have the perspective, the understanding, of Destiny, of the individual moments of ones own life as a process of ones own change, ones own transformation and evolution, as a potentiality of a new type of being; and also (2) have the perspective, the understanding, of Wyrd, of how ones own life is in flux with Aeonic forces, with the change of Aeons, of Nature, of Life, and of the Cosmos itself, in both its causal and its acausal modes of being. What this means in practical terms is that one feelings, ones emotions, are or can be useful vectors of ones own inner change; that pathei-mathos a learning from the hardships, the pains, the suffering, of personal experience is not only beneficial, a means, a process, to enable us to evolve, as human beings, but also testing, a means, a process, whereby the best, those possessed of arte, flourish. In brief, pathei-mathos is a good test for human beings; what keeps mundanes as mundanes, or more often than not what destroys, what breaks, mundanes. But also, a means to attain, and to reveal, arte. So, no, I have no regrets I have only a learning from my experiences and mistakes. 121 Year of Fayen

Balocraft of Baphomet Gruyllans Tale Although he did not know it then, the prepossessing half-timbered large Edwardian house that he passed a quarter of the way up Trevor Hill would be his final destination. But, sweating profusely in the hot mid-June Sun, Gruyllan gave it only a cursory glance, and continued along his way, cursing the lateness of his train and oblivious to the exclusive properties that lined both sides of that steep upward lane which gave splendid views, to the West, of the Stretton valley, of Caer Caradoc, Hazler Hill, and of The Lawley, beyond.

He had been given only an ordnance Survey map reference, and a time, and his assumed lateness and the memory of the beautiful young voluptuous woman combined to make him walk faster until he was almost running. She had leant toward him, so that he could see down past her cleavage to where her large erected nipples strained against the thin fabric of her low cut evening dress. Meet me here, she had said, and pushed a handwritten piece of paper toward him, making sure her ngers touched his as they sat in the Tempus bar of The Station Hotel in now faraway York. Even now he seemed still able to smell her scent, and, as he reached almost to the top of that lane he could see his destination ahead: the summit of Haddon Hill beyond the scattered grassy often wind-swept links that formed the highest Golf Course in England. So he struggled on in the heat of that late afternoon; a young man dressed incongruously in black, seeking Satanic initiation. And when clammy from sweat, breathless, and pleased he reached his destination among the sheepcropped grass and heather of those Shropshire hills, there was no one to greet, to meet, him. Only the breeze, that warm did little to cool him, and the westward vista of South Shropshire valley and hills. No beautiful woman, naked, to open her legs enticing as she lay with him to seal his oath by bodily fluids, exchanged. No words of Initiation to echo, Satanically, in his head. You the nameless are here to give yourself to us: To seal with blood your oath To we your new family in this Our Nexion to Bride-Mother Baphomet Instead, only the wordful, wyrdful, wind. Sun, thirst, heat; the exhausted tiredness of disappointment where, under the blue sky, he sat down alone on that hill. Had it all been a dream, or some jape? Hope bade him stay for half an hour, then more, until nearly two hours later as the Sun descended, clouds came he stood to walk, wearily, away. There would be no lips, rouged, to touch, kiss. No tongue to taste and toy with. No breasts to touch, feel; no nipples to lick, suck and chew upon. No moist, warm, furrow to plough; no painted finely manicured nails to clasp his shoulders as seed was sown. No scent to suffuse his senses as bodies meshed with sweat suffusing them. It was painful, leaving, while her image, her scent, her promise, lingered in memory within his head. But he left, nevertheless, and it did not seem to matter to him that he had memorized their her book, The Grimoire of

Baphomet given, the day before, in that Bar when rst he saw her, enticingly waiting. There had been e-mails, of course, exchanged for weeks, beforehand. Questions asked, and answered. No real names given, required, presumed. And then that meeting, arranged. He had spent the days, before, trying not to hope too much, and failing. Hope of a sexual initiation, with a young woman, of course. Hopes of joining a secret elite. Hopes of lust, joy, danger; a new and darker way of life. There were stories; almost urban legends. Many warnings from Undergraduate friends who shared his Occultic interests, though not his inclination toward Baleful Arts. The ONA? they would say, mixing incredulity with censure. They dont exist, one said. Avoid them; theyre hard-core; dangerous; criminal; immoral; they practise human sacrice, said another. Theyre a cult; they have these hard, brutal, tests if you fail them, you become an opfer for their Black Mass, opined another. Theyre evil; I mean really evil; subversive said the fourth, and last. Painful, leaving but by the time he had arrived back at the small unstaffed Railway Station, to sit on a half-vandalised wooden bench, he was happy, again. Exhausted, hungry, thirsty, but happy. For it was all a test, he knew or, rather, he assumed it was a test. The first, perhaps, of many. So he would re-apply; and wait, for it was a test, just a test, he kept repeating to himself, and he was still thinking this idly smiling and idly feeling, knowing now, how stupid, how studently stupid he was to wear black clothes when the Shrewsbury bound train arrived to disgorge a few motley mundanes. He rose to move toward a still open train-carriage door. But an elderly women, tweedily-dressed and carrying an umbrella, smiled at him and blocked his way. He tried to deftly swerve around her, as a young athletic man could, but she was too quick, for with a flick of her umbrella she tripped him up. How clumsy of me, and she looked down at him, sprawled on the platform. Do please forgive me. No, no its perfectly all-right, he replied, somewhat clumsily rising to his feet where she still stood blocking his way to the train. I imagine, she said, in her smiling grannyesque way, you are in a hurry to board the train. But she made no move to move aside. Instead, she said, Such a lovely town, this. Do you not agree? What? And he was about to smile, politely, and turn toward the carriage

when he sensed the strangeness of the scene, as if it was some dream of the previous night, half-remembered and still a little haunting. And so he let his train depart. There is a quite lovely tea-shop, just around the corner, she was saying, and so he walked beside her, silent, up the slight incline toward the tree-lined road, until she said: How very perceptive of you. Have I passed, then? You are quite thirsty, so let us have some tea and cake and then talk, a little more. The tea-room atop a cluttered, dusty, antique market was small, quite stuffy, and quite full, and he sat still and waiting despite his rather nervous anticipation, and he had consumed two pots of tea before she spoke again. I imagine I am not what you imagined, she said. Then, before he could reply: But yes, you are correct. Youre an empath. So, you would have passed me by had I decided not to re-apply. More tea? she smiled. No thanks. There is another test Of course. But rst go here, now, where we await you. And she pushed a handwritten piece of paper toward him, making sure her ngers touched his as they sat in that stuffy tea-room in sunny South Shropshire. He left then, enwrapped in her their scent, to walk through that small town oblivious to everything until he came again to Trevor Hill, snaking upwards as its lane did from, and to the right of, that narrow road that led to Cardingmill Valley.

Several stone steps led to the large front door and he was about to tug on the cord to ring the antique brass bell when the door opened.

His memory was there, before him the beautiful young woman whose crimson lipstick, fulsomely applied, matched the colour of her dress, and she, wordless, led him into the cool if dim interior, along a tiled floor, and up an oak staircase to a spacious high-ceilinged curtainless room of parquet floor whose only furnishings were a chaise-longue and a marble mantel above the Coalbrookedale fireplace, and which held a large clear quartz crystal tetrahedron. The door closed slowly, silently, behind them and it did not take her long to remove her dress. She was naked beneath it. Veni omnipotens aeterne diabolus! she lisped, to supinely wreathe herself around, upon, the chaise-longue, and he, eagerly stripping away his earthly coverings, obliged to lay upon her and enter her warm moistness as her crimson painted nails sank into the esh of his shoulders to draw forth fresh blood. Her sibilation was almost silent but it beat upon the tympanon of his ears You the nameless are here to give yourself to us: To seal with blood your oath To we your new family in this Our Nexion to our Bride-Mother Baphomet He was soon spent, drained, unused to such female almost feline ferocity, and she turned him over to lay upon him to lick his shoulder wounds. So she whispered to him his appointed task, his test, and waited while he enwreathed in his sweat and hers dressed himself before taking him down to the cellar. The tools, the instruments of death and slaughter, were there, in plenty, and he watched while she placed her chosen items, and bundles of money, into some nondescript suitcase. Then a silver chain with sigil pendant of Baphomet placed around his neck; a kiss, tongue seeking his; her still naked body pressed to his. A promise that he could should sow his seed within her again, again, again. And then he was out, dazed, back out into the bright day of light to walk with heavy suitcase down the hill. There was no train at the Station; no elderly women to block his way when train arrived. Only the journey, the long journey of no doubts. ^^^ She was never there when each evening he returned to that cocktail Bar, hoping. Never there, red lips touching Champagne flute; never there to take

him to her suite where he would lay upon her. The money certainly helped to ease his pain of separation and his preparations, and he worked assiduously, planning, enticing, ensnaring, while maintaining the appearance of a student life. The mundane he selected was eager, willing, as well he might be, given Gruyllans weeks of preparation even before that wyrdful meeting, with her. So Peter The Mundane sat with him in that vulgar bar of Vanbrugh College, anonymous in their student anonymity, while darkness came to the world outside. Thus Gruyllan The Cunning continued to weave his web of lies, and the younger student listened, weakened as he was from netorrhoea spread by specious sites, from abstractions believed, and the money Gruyllan had lavished upon him. In every war there are casualties; collateral damage. Anyway, theyll be plenty of time for the area to be cleared. Just remember, those there in that place on that day are unkies of the repressive, immoral, State. Waiting is defeat, and the State isnt simply going to collapse; its got to be pushed; the capitalists are vulnerable, and one of their weaknesses is the condence that the money markets require. Dent that get them into a state of fear and youve got them ready to topple. Keep them wondering where and when were going to strike next So Gruyllan talked, and Peter The Mundane listened. Talked of the struggle; of Bonanno; of the need to inspire others; and when they parted, hours later, each to their own student rooms, Gruyllan knew Peter was primed. A few days, and they were in a rainy London, with the mundane carrying a large, heavy, rucksack. It was a symbolic target, near the Bank of England, and they shook hands before Gruyllan left, ostensibly to telephone a warning. But the timer, unknown to that mundane, was set for only a few seconds delay so that he had walked only a few paces away before the bomb exploded. There was bloody carnage. Bodies, buildings, damaged, And around, among, the dead, the dying, waiting demonic shapes gathered, unseen by any mortal mundane eye shapes feeding on, upon, the pain, the suffering, the deaths; transforming the life-force leaking, leaving into new life, Their life, as one more portal opened, allowing other shapes to eagerly egress forth. Agios o Baphomet, Your Balocraft be done, Gruyllan intoned from his well-kept distance, and smiled, knowing a reward awaited. He was correct about the reward. She was there when he, hours later, safely arrived to take him to her spacious high-ceilinged curtainless room of the parquet floor. And when his passion spasmed in its ending, her almost silent

Some Notes on Mythos and Methodology

I have read somewhere that the ONA has now entered the third phase, or stage, of its century-long sinister plan to destroy the Old Order of the mundanes. Can you go into more detail? The essence of the first two stages was (to use new ONA-speak) basically: (1) manufacturing a variety of sinister viruses; manufacturing different strands, or mutations, of each sinister ONA virus, imbuing them with acausal energy, and then releasing these sinister and esoteric viral infections out into the world so that they might infect the psyche of susceptible individuals; and (2) creating the ONA itself as a living evolving nexion, imbued with the defiant individuality of the true LHP; independent of any one individual (including myself); and unfettered by the causal forms of the Old Aeon (such as dogma; ideology; hierarchies; copyright, and so on). Expressed in old, traditional, ONA-speak, certain causal and esoteric forms were manufactured, and these were imbued with acausal energies. That is, certain nexions were created, and acausal energy accessed to flow through them, with the ONA itself becoming a type of sinister acausal being, presenced living in the causal. One of the most successful exoteric forms proved to be the mythos of the ONA

18 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

itself; another was our ONA methodology. In mundane-speak, these particular viruses inspired some creative individuals, already possessed of a latent sinister character, leading them to make their own contributions in their own valuable and necessary way. That is, because of, and through these talented individuals, there was another mutation of our sinister ONA viruses, as they contributed to extended; evolved; represenced that mythos, that methodology, and so gave birth to their own new causal sinister forms, their own living nexions. Thus did these gifted individuals evolve the ONA itself. The third stage of our current long-term sinister strategy will last some four, or five, decades. As mentioned in the MS Toward The Dark Formless Acausal: Outwardly, or externally, the third stage involves continuing to presence The Dark Forces, via nexions, through supporting, and creating, various causal forms; through practical de-stabilization, through supporting and championing various heretical causes and ideas, and so on: to the greater glory of Baphomet, one might, with correctness, say, and write. One such causal form and a most important one, for this particular stage is that of sinister tribes, as briefly outlined in MSS such as (1) The Sinister Tribes of the ONA; (2) Whose Gonna Run This Town Tonight?; and (3) Heresy, Sinister Tribes, Nexions and The Methodology of the ONA. Thus, during this third stage we should begin to see the establishment of some sinister tribes in urban areas. Initially, these will be small, local, groups, most of whose members (or all of whose members) will and should earn their living outside the laws of the mundanes, which mundanes are their prey, their resource. For it is not the function of our sinister tribes to have their members earn a respectable living according to the rules, the standards, the norms, of the mundanes. Rather, it their function their character, their aim to be sinister; to live the sinister; to presence the sinister in practical ways. Once established in their own areas, they may seek to co-operate for their mutual benefit with other sinister groups in other areas, and, eventually, in other lands, so that a large sinister network (eventually extending overseas) is created purely on a practical and very business-like basis. Supply and demand; the economics of organization; the obtaining of wealth; the trading of goods; the building of respect, and the emergence of leadership, through practical deeds and by establishing in a practical way our law of personal honour, which law importantly applies to and which binds only us, our sinister kind, our feral kindred, and which we do not extend to the mundanes or anyone, unless they join us and so become part of our sinister kind, with the duty and loyalty this involves, and with them subject to our penalties should they go, or act, against us.

In practical terms, the third stage is where our forces begin to directly challenge The System on a scale beyond that of a few sinister individuals, with this challenge being especially of the so-called authority and laws of The System, of the societies created for and maintained for the benefit of the mundanes, those servants and allies of the Magian. Thus, we will be the law in the areas where we dwell; where our tribes have their base. We will be the ones our neighbours rst turn to for practical help; we will become the ones aiding our communities by using some of our prots, some of our skills, to aid them. It may well be from one of the new urban tribes that Vindex emerges, possibly in America. [See Footnote 1] Another causal form important during this third stage is the emergence of more traditional nexions, where individuals outwardly concern themselves with following the Seven Fold Sinister Way according to ONA tradition as manifest in works such as NAOS, and where they esoterically undertake esoteric rituals to presence The Dark Forces, disrupt the Magian, and to aid and strengthen other sinister forms, such as our sinister tribes. One quite important role of such (often hidden) traditional nexions is to magickally aid Vindex and his or her forces of insurrection when Vindex emerges. Another important role is to train a few suitable sinister Adepts, and then send them out into the world to do practical sinister deeds. In several recent articles you have made mention of sinister empaths, the breeding, the manufacture, of an entirely new type of human being who has a very developed faculty of empathy. Will you go into more detail about them? No. Except to mention that it is empathy with living beings, and with the acausal itself, which is the fundamental basis for the successful presencing of powerful acausal energies and the creation of long-lived nexions, such as those associated with a New Aeon and its associated outer, causal, sinister forms. Here, what may be termed the sinister numen (the numen of the sinister) is important. I read in a recent ONA MS, that you consider film should be used as a sinister art-form. What exactly did you mean? As the ONA grows, evolves, changes, and as more and more people become affected and infected by our mythos and our methodology, there should be some gifted, creative, individuals, of sinister character, who can meld together various art-forms, possibly using modern technology, to create new presencings of the sinister.

Thus, we need new and deeply sinister music, of and in whatever genre (modern or otherwise), as we also need a whole new genre of music a whole new type of music to manifest the sinister. So far, no one it seems to me has really presenced the sinister in music. That is, no one has yet produced an original piece of music which directly affects individuals and imbues them with sinister feeling; which may inspire some susceptible individuals to do sinister deeds; and which is dangerous: which the mundanes find disturbing and which they might seek to make illegal. Thus, such music is far more than mere entertainment; far more than a momentary thrill; or a momentary feeling. It is real sinister inspiration, which is capable of transporting the listener elsewhere, to other realms; which affects them in a significant way and which can lead them to do practical sinister deeds. One way to do this is through musically invoking archetypal sinister energies; evoking acausal energies, and acausal entities. Thus, such music becomes a sinister ritual of itself. Another way to do this is to deal with genuine heresy for the music and/or the words to concern themselves with what the mundanes fear; what they have outlawed in most if not all of their tyrannical societies. This music can then be combined with video; with moving, colourful images and/or action that tell a story or which add to or which even create the sinister ambience. In addition, there should an extension of this story telling and/or action so that a genuine sinister lm or many such lms are produced. Importantly, there are no limits. That is, as mentioned previously, any type of music, any genre, can be used, from classical to hip-hop; just as the story can be anything we like or desire to presence. If we are not satisfied with some existing genre, we ourselves should create a new one. We are only limited by our creative genius, by our imagination, by our sinister desire. Thus, there could and should be music, films, animations whatever about real outlaws, past and present, who inspire us; about our urban sinister tribes (real or our hopeful intimations of what they should be); about Vindex (fictional accounts or hopeful intimations); about our Dark future Imperium; about our sinister dreams and the sinister deeds we might desire to do; about individuals the mundanes fear and whom they revile and hate.

We should also be thinking of using modern technology to create new art-forms, to use such technology as a new means of presencing the sinister. The only limits, the only limitations, are those we might wrongly impose upon ourselves. Someone has brought to my attention what appears to be a basic grammatical mistake in the chant Agios o Baphomet, since Baphomet is female. Is it a mistake? Although this question of alleged mistakes in some ONA MSS, or in some ONA traditions, has been mentioned several times before, in some other mostly older ONA MSS, it does perhaps merit some further explanation, particularly since the ONA mythos and the ONA methodology has now seeded itself among thousands and thousands of people worldwide, some of who may well be pouring over various ONS MSS in the hope of sinister enlightenment. In this matter, one must apply the fundamental esoteric principle of there possibly being an outer, exoteric (or dhir) meaning and/or intent, and there being an inner, esoteric (or batin) meaning and/or intent. Thus, is what is first perceived as a mistake or an error, really so? Is it a real error, or a typo in the MS; or might it be a test designed to (1) encourage those possessed of our character, our ethos, to reflect further upon the matter and/or to research further, or (2) to encourage the mundanes the make the mistaken conclusion they make by virtue of their mundane personal character? Or, might it indeed be a mistake? Our ethos is that of the individual of strong personal character who strives to learn by experience, by doing. Such a person questions; they seek to find their own answers; they challenge everything, and do not merely accept something just because it is in some MS or in some book or because someone has told them something. The author of a particular MS may indeed have made an error no human entity is infallible, and no one in the ONA claims to be so infallible, or claims their work is divinely or diabolically inspired by some higher entity. I, personally, have made many mistakes, and some of my MSS may indeed contain contain some undeliberate errors. Thus, it is for each individual to ascertain, if they can, where the truth may (or may not) lie. If a particular matter concerns them and they cannot be bothered to so ascertain the direction in which the truth (or the error) may lie, then they are not of us; but rather more akin to a mundane. Several ONA MSS especially some older ones may have some traps for the unwary; may lead some mundane who reads them to make certain false conclusions; and may, just may, inspire a few individuals of sinister character to discover certain
22 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

matters for themselves. Thus, and in respect of the particular example you cite, someone possessed of our sinister character, our ethos, might after reexion upon and/or further research into the matter conclude that it is not an error because the entities being mentioned and invoked by such a vibration/chant are beyond the limited causal category our limited dichotomy of male and female. That is, our rather limited classication of sentient beings into just two categories, male and female, is or may not be strictly applicable to such acausal entities. A really talented individual might go even further, and be inspired to seek to invent some type of language or some collocation of symbols which goes beyond such limited causal categories. And so on. 120 Year of Fayen Footnote: (1) For a basic exoteric account of Vindex, refer to Myatts book, The Mythos of Vindex, of which extracts from the first two parts (Vindex and The Defeat of The Magian and The Ethos of Vindex In Historical Context) have so far been published. As stated in A Brief ONA Glossary: Vindex is the name of the exoteric (or outer) nexion through which powerful acausal energies are presenced on Earth in order to destroy the current status quo (the Old Aeon, now manifest in the so-called New World Order) and prepare the way for and inaugurate the practical beginnings of the New Aeon. Like Falcifer (q.v.), Vindex can be presenced (manifest) in an individual (who may be male or female). If an individual, Vindex is the embodiment of The Law of the New Aeon, which is personal honour [See the ONA MSS The Law of the New Aeon and Tyrannies End: Anarchy, Magick and the Law of Personal Honour]. As mentioned in Myatts The Mythos of Vindex, Vindex can be a person of any ethnicity, and may or may not arise in what is called The West (America, Europe, Australasia). Myatt goes so far as to suggest that Vindex could arise in Asia.

We, The Difficult ONA The main difficulty with the Order of Nine Angles, why the ONA is difficult, is
23 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

that it is practical that it requires those who desire to be part of it or who desire to apply its methods to themselves, to do real sinister sorcery and real sinister deeds. Real sinister deeds means, for instance, that you: (1) are Drecc that you live a practical sinister life, in the world of mundanes; that you engage with mundanes (if only to use them and their property as a resource) and that you have or you develope real sinister comrades, real-life sinister brothers and sisters who are part of your own tribe or part of the sinister tribe you belong to; or (2) that you a lone-sinister activist/sorcerer/sorceress or a Balobian doing practical sinister deeds against the Magian System or (if Balobian) using some art-form in order to effectively and affectively spread our Darkness and manipulate mundanes; or (3) you are part of a Traditional Nexion who undertakes or who manipulates some mundanes or mundanes to undertake culling or practical deeds that Presence The Dark in a manner which reminds mundanes of our Darkness and our terrifying sinister nature. Real sinister sorcery means, for instance, doing sorcery becoming proficient in our Dark Arts, by gaining skill, experience, in both hermetic and ceremonial rituals, and by undertaking Grade Rituals, especially that of Internal Adept. For the Grade Ritual of Internal Adept (in either its simple or its advanced form) is the only practical way to develope certain, specific, esoteric skills, gain real and deep self-knowledge, and to gain genuine esoteric insight into those matrix of energies which underlie and are beyond the causal realm, and which skills and which insight, which self-knowing, are the marks of the true Adept. What is common to all of us are three important and necessary things. (1) That we possess or we develope from accepting and overcoming practical physical, mental and Occult, challenges a self-honesty, a self-awareness: that we really do know ourselves, and are honest about our own level of learning and our skills, esoteric and otherwise. (2) That we possess the ability, deriving from this self-honesty, to control ourselves and our emotions, desires, and thus have that mastery of ourselves (and that self-awareness) which mundanes in general and Homo Hubris in particular lack. (3) That we possess an Aeonic perspective that is, that we know, or we sense, we intuit, the difference between Destiny and Wyrd; between our own personal Destiny which we can aspire to and change or bring-into-being during our causal life (and especially by means of our Sinister Way) and between Cosmic Wyrd, which we cannot (until we egress, in Occult terms, Beyond The Abyss) fully synchronize with and certainly cannot control in any significant manner. There are no excuses. For our sinister Way The Sinister Way of the Order of Nine Angles insists upon these things: (1) That you undertake such physical

24 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

challenges as outlined, for instance, in the Complete Guide to the Seven-Fold Way [1]. (2) That you are Drecc, or part of a Traditional Nexion, or a lone-sinister activist/sorcerer/sorceress or a Balobian doing practical sinister deeds (in the real world of the mundanes) for both yourself and to aid or to implement our Aeonic sinister strategy. (3) That if you are not Drecc if, that is, you are not part of one of our sinister tribes then you, after some years of sinister experience, must undertake the Grade Ritual of Internal Adept (in either its simple or its advanced form) if you desire to advance further along our Sinister Way, if you desire to fulfil your sinister potential and so achieve your unique Destiny. If you do not want to, or cannot, do these things, then you are not and never will be, of us; not part of our Sinister Kollective. That is why we are dicult; that is why we are Sinister; that is why the Order of Nine Angles is selective and not suited to everyone, and why it is not intended to appeal to everyone, especially not to mundanes. For you have to already possess or be able to alchemically create the sinister-changeling within you; you have to do stu practical often dangerous things; you have to challenge and change yourself over a period of many years. For you are presented with challenges, with tests which you either overcome and pass, or which you fail. If you fail you can either try again, until success (and the necessary degree of self-insight) is attained, or you can slink back to the world of the mundanes, and just become another part of The System, probably priding yourself on, and nding some comfort in, your time of rebellion with the ONA. Naturally, many of those who, liking our sinister glamour, egress around us who associate with us for a period of causal Time find excuses for not being sinister, for not doing the required practical things; excuses which, of course, they in their self-delusion and mundaneness, personally find convincing. Thus will they go o elsewhere, to some other, less harsh, easy group or way; thus will some of them found their own group or way as some extension of their own Occult fantasies, most probably awarding themselves some Occult title or other; and thus will some of them be critical of us since such criticism enables them to continue in their self-deluded weakness. We do not care. We have never cared, and will never care, about such failures. Just as we do not care about popularity. We are as we are balewa, Satanic, and bane of both Magians and mundanes.

The Gentlemans and Noble Ladies Brief Guide to The Dark Arts Outwardly, in terms of persona and character, the true Dark Arts are concerned with style; with understated elegance; with natural charisma; with personal charm; and with manners. That is, with a certain personal character and a certain ethos. The character is that of the natural gentleman, of the natural noble lady; the ethos is that of good taste, of refinement, of a civilized attitude. The faculty of dark-empathy is one of the qualities that distinguishes the genuine Adept. Some other qualities of the Adept are self-honesty, self-awareness, and self-control, often manifest as these are in a certain noble attitude and thus in the possession of personal manners. Not for the Adept the ill-mannered behaviour of Homo Hubris, distinguished as such untermenschen are by their lack of manners, lack of empathy, and their uncontrollable need to dysfunctionally express themselves and their emotions in public. In one word, Adepts possess . Inwardly, the true Dark the sinister Arts are concerned with self-control, discipline, self-honesty; with a certain detachment from the mundane. That this has been forgotten or not understood, or not even known among the many latter-day pretenders and poseurs is a sign of how few genuine Masters, and Lady Masters, there are. Thus, there is a beauty in the Dark Arts and an exultation of Life, and certainly not a wallowing in the symbols, symbolism and accouterments of death and decay. Thus, there is a natural joy, which can be and often is both light and dark but which is always controlled. Not for the Gentleman, or the Lady, the loss of mastery, the stupefaction that arises from over-indulgence (which over-indulgence can and which does include personal emotion).

Thus, one of the true archetypes of the genuine Sinister Path: Baphomet, the beautiful, mature, lady (fecund Mistress of Earth) whose beautiful outward serenity masks the deadly acausal darkness within which can be released when she chooses. (Life-Birth-Joy-Ecstasy-Safety-Wisdom-Giving-DarknessDeath.) Thus, another dark archetype: The Master, the true shapeshifter who is and who might not be what they might appear to be; the polite charming gentleman, who might (and who could) kill you or have you killed if there was a good enough reason, but who might reward you (if there was a good enough reason) with beneficence whose source would be unknown to you; the recluse The Master Acausal Sorcerer you do not see nor know, except perhaps in dreams, shadows, or fleeting day and night-time glimpses which might perhaps stir a memory, some memory, personal or beyond (BeautifulProfound-Wistful-Knowing-Danger-Roborant-Wyrdful-Sad) which inspires, or brings new beginnings or balance or perchance a retribution. To aspire to to gain Mastery of The Dark Arts is to experience, and to learn the lessons of self-honesty and self-control; to strive, to dream, to quest, to exceed expectations. To move easily, gracefully, from the Light to the Dark, from Dark to Light, until one exists between yet beyond both, treating them (and yourself) for the imposters they (and you) are. Mastery begins with Internal Adept, and it is from noble cultured gentlemanly or lady-like Adepts that candidates for the inner ONA are recruited. 119 Year of Fayen

Further Notes Regarding The Esoteric Form of The Star Game

As mentioned in ONA MSS such as The Dark Arts of Traditional Satanism (aka The Dark Arts of The Sinister Way) and in the section The Rite of The Star Game in The Grimoire of Baphomet, The Star Game is one of the principle means of developing acausal-knowing (a.k.a. acausal-thinking) and is also a powerful if esoteric Dark Art. The term The Esoteric Star Game (ESG) is used here to refer to what has been described, in MSS such as Naos, as the advanced form of The Star Game (TSG), as distinct from the simple (training) form. In truth, the simple form as described in MSS such as Naos was devised as a basic neophyte and Initiate level introduction to the Star Game proper, enabling the fundamental esoteric

27 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

concepts of TSG to be understood, and enabling some insight into acausalthinking itself. The simple form of TSG has seven boards, and only 27 pieces per side (player; causal/acausal aspect), with each of these boards consisting of nine black and nine white squares. This simple form can be played merely as a mundane (if somewhat complex) game, according to rules given in Naos, although Initiates are expected to refine these rules as they gain experience. The complete esoteric SG full details of which are given in other ONA MSS, including facsimile editions of Naos has seven main boards (nexions) arranged in a hierarchical spiral, as in the training version with each of these main boards having six (minor) boards (three at each end), and there being additional pieces (more sets of nine for each player: often 81 pieces per player; sometimes more), with additional rules regarding movement. Furthermore, there are three forms of the Complete ESG all of which have three additional levels (small boards) above the main board (level 1) but which differ in the number of squares and the placing of these small (or minor) upper boards. In the first form, the additional levels (boards) of each one of the main seven boards are: Level 3 3 Level 2b 2b Level 2a Level 1 (Black) (White) - Level Level

Level 2a - Level 1

Level three consists of six squares, three white and three black; level 2b is a single square; level 2a is the same as level three: three black and three white squares. Note that level 3 in this form is set directly above the other levels. In the second form of the ESG, level 3 is set outward, so that it is not protruding above levels 1 and 2, and consists of only 2 squares. In the third and the standard form as described in a diagram on p.213 of the facsimile pdf version of Naos level 2b (described therein as level 3 out of 4) is of one square only and is set outward, between the inward levels 2a (described in Naos as level 2) and 3 (described in Naos as level 4).

These differences are quite minor, and are designed to show Adepts, and beyond, how an alteration of certain aspects of a particular causal-metric (re-presented by a main board and the number, type and placing of the minor boards) affects, or can affect, a nexion or nexions, and thus acausal energies, and the interaction between nexions. Thus, the Adept discovers, for themselves, which if any of these three re-presentations is the most efficacious in terms of re-presenting a nexion, nexions in general, and which if any is the most efficacious in developing acausal-knowing and when used to bring and presence acausal energy. Construction of the Complete Esoteric Star Game The ESG was designed to be a physically large structure to occupy a certain amount of causal Space so that the Adept or Adepts (the player or players) have to physically move around it in order to see all the boards and pieces, and in order to move the pieces. In addition, in the majority of constructions so far, the Adept or Adepts using the ESG, has to use some form of steps in order to reach the top main boards. Thus, the ESG, as currently existing and as constructed and used in past decades, is a sizeable construction, previously most often made of wood, but now occasionally made using steel for both the boards and the supports holding the boards, and which boards, in some steel constructed version, are cantilevered out from the supports. In addition, in order to accommodate the three forms briefly outlined above, the minor boards (or sub-levels) of the seven major boards are designed to be removable, with replacement minor boards, of the required type, being available. Given the esoteric nature of the ESG, and the complexity of its physical construction, it is therefore not surprising that membership of the ESG club is exclusive and elitist, particularly as most individuals interested in or even associated with The Order of Nine Angles cannot be bothered to construct, and learn, the simple form of TSG, let alone the ESG, and particularly as few of the individuals who have assiduously read many ONA MSS have not even noticed that there are three forms of the ESG. Furthermore, although the ESG, and thus the simple form of TSG, were designed in an era when the only (digital and commercial) computers were IBM type mainframes using punched cards and magnetic reel tape, no computer version of TSG has so far been developed, nor is likely to be developed for many years, given the complexity of the ESG itself. However, such a computerized version, while it might make TSG itself more

Order of Nine Angles

popular, is neither necessary nor even desirable, for reasons which Adepts will understand. For the very physical construction of the ESG is a personal challenge in itself, just as using a large physical ESG is a type of esoteric ritual in itself, and the overcoming of this personal challenge (which takes a certain amount of causal Time) combined with physically using such a structure in an esoteric way, is a prerequisite to joining what is probably one of the most elitist sinister cabals currently presenced on this planet we humans call Earth.

An Important Note Regarding Copies of Naos Facsimile copies (in pdf format) of the original typewritten and spiral bound copies of Naos (as first circulated by the ONA between 1989 and 1992 CE) are now available, both on the Internet, and from several book publishers. All other editions of Naos have serious errors or omissions, and readers are advised to avoid them. T he genuine facsimile copies in pdf format are c. 45 Megabytes in size, and contain: (1) the handwritten words Aperiatur Terra Et Germinet Atazoth on the first page, and the handwritten word Brekekk (followed by an out-of-date address) on the last page; (2) a typewritten table of contents on page 3 which includes in the following order Part One, Part T wo, Appendix, Part T hree Esoteric MSS; (3) a distinct facsimile image of the spiral binding on the left hand side of every page until p.70. In addition, genuine copies of the original MSS include facsimile images of hand-drawn diagrams, including the advanced Star Game, and T he W heel of Life.

Toward The Dark Formless Acausal

I've read several times recently - on the Internet, of course! - that the Order of Nine Angles is defunct. Do you have any comment to make about this?

A: If people wish to believe that, fine. All I will say is that - for many decades now - our membership has been closed. That is, we have not actively and publicly saught to recruit members. We are not interested in large numbers of people joining us, and we have placed many obstacles in the way of people contacting us. The few that do and have joined us are selected by us if we perceive they have the right qualities and if they have been tenacious in their search, and passed the various tests which are
30 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

part of the selection process, with these tests being mostly unknown to them at the time they are being tested. Such tests, by us, continue until they have achieved, for themselves, Internal Adept. Thus, we are elitist, and secretive. For the moment, and for the past few years or so, we have and have had a slight "public profile" - with an unofficial Internet website and an unofficial "Internet blog", run by a member - but these things are temporary, serving a specific CausalTime-limited purpose, and when that purpose is achieved then they, and this slight public profile, will cease. Of course, we will not make any announcement of this ceasing, at the time. It should be understood that our goals are of not only decades but of centuries, and that we act, and plan, accordingly.

What about the people who leave - or who seem to leave? I'm thinking of people like Vilnius Thornian, who ran the old Nasz Dom website, and C Beest, who did the Sinister Tarot. Have they really left, and if so is that a betrayal, and what does their leaving say about the state of the Order of Nine Angles itself and its method of training?

The question itself reveals something of a lack of esoteric insight and sinister knowledge. Over the decades, several people have come and gone - some only achieved External Adept; a few achieve Internal Adept. Of those who wander away, and give up or renounce their Sinister quest, one or two return, having learnt much - about themselves - during their exile. Yet some of those who wander away or who may renounce their quest may still have done some useful work; may still have presenced the Sinister in some way, and thus have contributed something, or affected some changes, however small. Some of these may even have been manipulated into doing such things, into contributing such things, by a Master, or a Mistress, with their leaving or their renunciation a sign of their failure. For such renunciations - whatever the reasons, or the reasons such people tell themselves - are expected, and indeed natural; part of the selection process itself. Those who go have failed, and proven themselves unsuitable; for the real, and the most important test, is that which lies beyond Internal Adept and which signifies the change from Adept to Master/Mistress. Of those who thus
31 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

progress beyond the Abyss, there have been no renunciations. Each Grade, of Internal Magick, is thus a test, a selection; and the move away from each Grade toward the next is also itself a test, a selection, and one which lasts many an alchemical season - in exoteric-speak, which lasts for some or often many many years. Again, such people, such failures, should be viewed in the perspective of centuries: of the progression toward our Sinister goals, our disruption of the Old Order, our presencings of the acausal darkness, and the emergence of the New Aeon, whose Sinister magickal energies are already being felt, by some, and whose exoteric affects are slowly causing causal changes.

There has been much speculation as to your use of the word "Fayen", which seems to have replaced the "yf" date code you previously used. Is there a reason for this change, and what does Fayen mean? Is the change in any way connected with a move away from NS type politics, which politics many associate you with? Firstly, the use of that particular word, now and in the past two or so years, is quite deliberate: to mark the beginning of the third stage of one particular, and century-long, strategy of ours. The first part was the codification of what it may be convenient to call "The Mythos of the ONA". This involved the writing down of the various aural traditions inherited from the reclusive Mistress who hailed from Shropshire, and who owned properties in London, Oxford and Manchester. These traditions involved such things as Esoteric Chant, The Septenary Tree of Wyrd, legends and myths about The Dark Gods and Baphomet; culling, various ceremonial rituals, and the Grade Rituals. It also involved refining and extending the Tradition itself - developing The Star Game, for example, and writing basic guides such as Naos. This stage took around a decade or so. The second stage was, internally, making most of the exoteric Tradition available by circulating a limited number of copies of various ONA MSS, and works such as The Black Book of Satan, and Naos. This created something of a "public profile" for the ONA, which was intentional. Externally, the real work of the ONA was continued by presencing the acausal, the Sinister, through supporting, and creating, various causal "forms", through opening various nexions, through practical de-stabilization, through propagating and championing various "heretical" causes and ideas, and so on: to the greater glory of Satan, one might have said, and say. This stage took around two
32 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

decades, or so. The third stage involves, internally, releasing items and MSS concerning some of the more esoteric aspects, which esoteric aspects include such things as: (1) the actual nature of The Dark Gods, hinted at in stories such as In The Sky of Dreaming and MSS such as The Mythos of the Dark Gods: Beings of Acausal Darkness; (2) The Seventh-Way, and the nature of Five-Dimensional Magick (hinted at in some earlier MSS, which mentioned some of the effects of a-temporal magickal rites; (3) the reality of The Abyss and beyond, where one goes beyond words, and causal symbols, such as the Tree of Wyrd, and thus beyond the opposites inherit in words, names and symbologies. Outwardly, or externally, the third stage involves continuing to presence The Dark Forces, via nexions, through supporting, and creating, various causal "forms"; through practical de-stabilization, through supporting and championing various "heretical" causes and ideas, and so on: to the greater glory of Baphomet, one might, with correctness, say, and write. After this - in future decades - as the signs of the de-stabilization of the Old Order (symbolized outwardly by the so-called, and mis-named, "New World Order") becomes ever more esoterically obvious and then even more exoterically obvious, there will that conjoining that can be symbolized, exoterically, by the union of Satan and Baphomet, and thus a bringinginto-being (a birthing) of what is Beyond: the acausal Darkness itself, fully presenced on Earth and in our causal Universe. To the greater glory of The Dark Gods, and thus the beginning of our own evolutionary change into a new species. Thus are some esoteric truths here revealed - for the sagacious. Furthermore, NS-type politics - as explained many times over the years - was and is used as a form, as a presencing (even sometimes as a nexion) by Sinister Initiates and Sinister Adepts as part of Sinister Aeonic strategy, as a work or works of Aeonic magick (or even as an individual Insight Rle). It it never was, nor is, the essence of the ONA, or the Way of the ONA: which is essentially to create, to breed, individual individuals and thence a new type of human being. Such individuals have gone beyond the abstractions, the forms, of the Old Aeon, and thus can - if necessary - use and manipulate such abstractions, such forms (be they conventionally described as political or religious, or whatever), in a Sinister, magickal Way: to presence the Dark Forces. That many people did not understand this, reveals only the lack of understanding of those people. That many so-called esoteric Initiates did not and do not understand this, reveals only their lack of Initiated understanding,
33 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

their lack of knowledge of genuine Magick, and of what it means to be a genuine follower of the Sinister Path.

You have stated - in the recently issued ONA Glossary - that the term Traditional Satanism, which now is in widespread use, was coined by the ONA. Is this correct, and does this mean, as some have supposed, a "worship" or reverence of Satan, as a real entity? It is correct to say and write that we were the first to use that particular term, over two decades ago, for the reason given: because of our inherited aural Tradition, and to differentiate our really Dark and really Sinister Way from others, such as the the gabbling posturing ToSers, the Magian-inspired crawling Crowleyites, and the sanctimonious egotists who fawned upon and followed the Magian clown named LaVey. To understand Satan - sans Nazarene theology and ontology, and the silliness of "theism" - is to understand that He is one of The Dark Gods and thus, according to our Tradition, our Mythos, an acausal-being, dwelling in the acausal Universe, Who has, at one or more times in our Earth-bound causal past, been presenced in causal form, which form can change, since Satan is, like most of that particular acausal species when manifest in the causal Universe, a shapeshifter. Yet there is, for us and others of our Sinister kind, no worship of such a being; no reverence. Just an admiration, at most, and a feeling of kinship, such as one might have toward an older brother, or sister, or a respected and older if distant relative. Or rather, and more correctly perhaps, such as a desire, such a yearning, for, the kinship of a long-lost half-brother, or half-sister, given that - for many - such relatives of ours have been missing for rather a long time.

Thus - and to continue the metaphor - do Sinister Initiates seek to find such missing relatives of theirs, and thus do they desire to not only have them "home" again (presenced on Earth) but also to learn from them so that they themselves can pass to the stars, and beyond: into the realms of the formless, timeless, acausal.

So you still regard yourselves as "Satanists" and still regard the term "Satanism" as having esoteric meaning? Yes, and yes. Greek scholars - and lexicographers - will understand what -ism
34 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

(and thus -ist) in this context refers to. Although, of course, "Satan-ism" is only a beginning: a nexion to the acausal itself; one causal and exoteric name for a particular presencing which can begin a particular, and dangerous and difficult, journey for some humans, to some-where. I also refer you to my previous answer: the Third Stage, and what is beyond. You mean Baphomet, whom you describe as a Dark Goddess? Indeed, for She is The Mistress, The Mother, of Blood; of our blood, and of the blood of those who are sacrificed to her, for her, and who can provide Her with some of the causal living necessary. Furthermore - and here is another clue - one must view both Vindex and Falcifer in relation to Her, and, of course, that acausal being whose exoteric name has been given as Satan. Since you accept Satan as a real being, what about God? Do you accept there is a God? No. We consider "God" to be a myth, an abstraction, a metaphysical construct if you will, created by the need and the desire of individuals who have not only yet to face, understand, and integrate, the darkness, within themselves, but who also - from weakness, inability or whatever - cannot go beyond such abstractions, such immature bifurcation into non-living "opposites", to the esoteric quintessence, which is of the numinosity of the a-causal Sinister imbued with the essence and the potential of causal life and causal living. Thus, "God" - as conventionally described - is a symptom of the human disease of negative-evolution, which is an un-knowing, an un-feeling, of our human potential, which potential can be unleashed by the energies of the acausal. In the same way, the kindred disease of hubris, the disease of the modern materialistic West, is an outward manifestation of the still current Old Aeon the Magian-inspired and Magian-controlled Old Order - and of those Aeons that preceded it. Hubris - selfish, blind, ill-disciplined indulgence and egotistical arrogance - is a lack of self-awareness; a lack of self-discipline; a pandering to the ego and its delusions; a lack of esoteric insight; a lack of that perspective, that self-judgement, that rational detachment, that awareness and practical experience of the acausal - of The Dark Gods, of Satan and Baphomet - creates. Or at least can create in those possessed of the right character, the correct attributes.

Thus do we seek the practical destruction of this Old Order, which keeps people in thrall, stifles our potential, and which becomes ever more oppressive and tyrannical with every passing year. This destruction is necessary whatever the cost in so-called "human suffering" - for such destruction is a prelude to the New Aeon which will unleash our full potential and enable us to become a new, and higher, species.

You do not therefore accept that there is such a thing as an "innocent person"?

Here is a quote from a now somewhat old essay of mine, which is relevant here: "There is no such thing as an innocent person because everyone who exists is part of the whole, the change, the evolution, the presencing of life itself, which is beyond them, and their life only has meaning through the change, development and evolution of life. Their importance is what they can become, or what can be achieved through their death. their tragedy, their living - their importance does not lie in their individual happiness or their individual desires or whatever." To Presence The Dark But I still expect the full meaning suggested by the above words will escape the vast majority of human beings, including the vast majority who call themselves, or describe themselves as, "Satanists" - which of course reveals quite a lot about such self-styled "Satanists", just as the very title of that particular ONA MS, quoted above, reveals quite a lot about us.

1 The Infestation of Homo Hubris Let us be honest Homo Hubris is an infestation on planet Earth; a sub-human species suitable for culling individually and on a large scale. For Homo Hubris is fundamentally dross; the product of those de-evolutionary forces and that de-evolutionary ethos which we who are esoterically adept and who adhere to the Sinister Way are in revolt against and wish to decimate and destroy and replace with our sinister evolutionary ethos and our new tribal elites. It is now the propitious time to deal with the infestation, the scourge, that is Homo Hubris: this ill-mannered, vulgar, denizen infesting our cities, our lands. But how are we to effectively deal with this inferior prodigious breeder of everything we detest and revile? By championing terror, war, disruption, disorder, crime, and chaos; by culling them whenever the individual opportunity to do so, undetected, arises. For they are the dross that holds us back from striving to-be, to live, among the stars of our and of other Galaxies; the dross who by their lack of taste, lack of manners, lack of excellence, lack of individual character, undermine and destroy what is of excellence and of sinister numinosity. They and those who have encouraged them and need them as a basis, a foundation, for their warped, Magian, messianic dreams are not only detrimental to our evolution but also a potential destroyer of that life which is our life and which currently dwells upon this Earth and in those dark, vast, formless, acausal spaces which we of the sinister-kindred feel or know or yearn for. The sinister reality is that they they, of Homo Hubris provide us, now, with a multitude of opportunities for we can and should mould, shape, use, manipulate, and cull, them for our own, individual, advantage, for the advantage of our sinister-kindred, and in order to further Presence The Dark; using them as expendable nexions, as sources, as fodder, to presence those sinister acausal energies we know, feel, and can use and control in order to bring-into-being our Dark Imperium and what that form will lead to. Those who understand who feel such things understand, and feel, the essence of our dark and sinister Way. Those who do not understand, who do not feel as we do that the culling, the manipulation, of such dross is both acceptable and necessary, are not-of-us: not of that Darkness which infuses us and which we seek and which we again and again strive to presence in

37 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

ourselves, in others and in and upon this planet which is currently our dwelling and our temporary home. For we despise, detest, the mundanes they who are not of us; they who lack our visions, our dreams, our dark sinister and ultimately supra-personal Cosmic desire; which desire leads us to strive to be more than we are, and which makes us individual rebels against all authority and all those causal forms that hold the mundanes and their Magian controllers in thrall. And the worst of the mundanes are Homo Hubris, who are in essence a detestable de-evolution of that species mis-named Homo Sapiens Sapiens; the worst of the worst: and thus on a par with their Magian controllers: those who have engineered them and who have a vested interest in their continuing de-evolution. Thus do we invoke Baphomet: the Dark Mistress and our Mother, of Blood, The Primal Dark One: our symbol of bloody slaughter, renewal, rebirth, and of Joy. Thus do we invoke Vindex, the dark Avenger and destroyer of the Old Order; our symbol of retribution and of new and wyrdful beginnings. Thus do we invoke Satan, Father and Master of Chaos, Disorder, Laughter, and of Crime; our symbol of rebellion and of our quintessential outlaw-ish, piratical nature. Thus do we invoke the Primal Darkness itself, beyond all our limited causal Earth-bound forms: bringer, genesis, of all that makes us more than human and which inspires us, can inspire us, to make real such visions as can transform and evolve us and take us out to live among the stars and Galaxies of the Cosmos. 120 Year of Fayen 2 The War Against The Mundanes The reality of these our causal-times is that we are at war with the mundanes, and this war is both a practical one, and an esoteric one involving our Dark, esoteric, Arts. One of the reasons for this war is that we are in direct conflict because the aims of the mundanes are mundane, while our aims are a manifestation of the sinister-numen. Another reason is that the mundanes have constructed tyrannical systems governments, government agencies (such as the Police), and societies which now exist to enforce and ensure, by the threat or the use of physical force, mundane-ness, and which tyrannical systems demand and enforce the collection of taxes in order to perpetuate their own mundane tyrannical existence. Another reason is that the mundanes have manufactured lifeless, un-numinous, abstractions ideas, theories, -isms and -ologies which enshrine mundane-ness and which abstractions keep the majority in thrall.
38 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

In essence, the mundanes are Earth-bound, sunk into the mire of materialism, and wallowing in undisciplined emotions and greedful self-indulgence, while we aspire to be more than we are, to evolve, and desire to control ourselves, to master ourselves, and seek to leave our childhood home which is this planet Earth: to seed ourselves among the star-systems of our Galaxy; to create entirely new ways of living and to have the freedom, the space, the territory, to explore, to discover, to dwell and live as we wish. Thus do we seek out, and come to revel in, the sinister-numen and its manifestation as our Dark, esoteric, Arts, and thus do we seek to test ourselves, to take ourselves to and beyond our human limits. Thus do we come to despise the restrictions of the morality of the mundanes, and all their laws and all their mechanisms of people-control practical, physical; and of the mind which helps ensure the docility of the tax-paying masses. We despise the way the mundanes have meekly surrendered what should be their numinous individuality to abstract systems such as The State, and thus allow The State, some government, some impersonal authority, to decide what justice is and what is lawful and unlawful. We despise this because we know we feel that no one, no System, no government, no State, no supra-personal authority, has any right to presume and assume control of us; no right to usurp and take away our individual judgement by replacing what is only and ever numinously personal by some abstract law which they in their mundaneness have manufactured. For us in contrast to the mundanes it is our natural right, our evolved duty, to take control of our own lives; to be responsible for ourselves, in the immediacy of the moment and beyond. Thus, our way is the way of individual, personal, honour of dealing with matters in our own way and directly, person-to-person. For we know we feel that such self-discipline and such self-control as arises from upholding our law of personal honour is an evolution, a liberation, of ourselves, and represents the true freedom that the tyrannical systems of the mundanes do deny us and have denied us. Thus we know we feel that it is up to us, as individuals, to judge others in the immediacy of the moment; through personal knowing of others. Thus do we scorn and reject the notion of judging others according to each and every abstraction each and every -ism and -ology which the mundanes have manufactured and which they themselves in their stupidity and their mundaneness use to judge others. Thus we know we feel that it is up to us, as individuals to defend ourselves, to equip ourselves for defence, and to seek recompense and vengeance from those who may have harmed us: that it is our right, our evolved duty, to dispense to be justice. Our safety, and justice, resides in us, as evolved
39 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

individuals strengthened in thought, understanding and in deed by the sinister-numen. Our safety does not depend upon some mundane Police force, just as true, numinous, justice does not reside in some mundane Court of Law or in some manufactured abstract Law: it resides in individuals such as us, in people of our honourable, sinister-numinous, kind. Thus, for us, personal honour is a practical manifestation of the sinisternumen; for us, honour is the law of the New Aeon which we seek, through our aims, our deeds, our sinister Dark Arts, to bring-into-being. Thus, for us, personal honour is a presencing of those evolutionary, those acausal, energies which can change us into a higher type, a new species, of human being. Thus, for us, our sinister-numinous tribes are an appropriate, a necessary, way to live for such tribes are where personal honour can live and thrive; where we ourselves where our kind can live and thrive and evolve, free from the restraints, the abstractions, the morality, of the mundanes, and free, liberated from, from the tyranny of States and governments. Thus we, and our tribes we, The Drecc are at war with the mundanes, and with their States and governments, desiring as we do to replace the tyranny of mundane abstractions by our sinister-numen, and desiring as we do to replace their States and governments, and their laws, by our new tribal way of life based on our law of the sinister-numen, which law of ours is personal honour. The Law of The Sinister-Numen Honour, according to and as defined by the sinister-numen, is a specific code of personal behaviour and conduct, and the practical means whereby we can live in an evolved way, consistent with the sinister perspective, and aims, of our Sinister Way. Thus, personal honour is how we can change, and control, ourselves. Honour not only defines our personal behaviour, and imposes upon us certain duties and obligations, but it also defines us, as individuals that is, it is an essential part of our identity, as individuals who live by the Law of the SinisterNumen, and it distinguishes us from the mundanes, from all those who are not-of-us, who do not belong to our kind. Honour is what binds our tribes; what makes our tribes, what makes and what marks our new way of living. For us, our honour is more important than our own lives, and it is this willingness to live and if necessary die for and because of our honour that makes us strong, fearsome, and enables us to live life on a higher level than any mundane. For it is through honour through our fearlessness, our scorn of our mortal death that we come to exult in Life itself.

Our honour means we are fiercely loyal to our own kind to those who, like us, live by honour and our prepared to die for their honour. Our honour means we are wary of, and do not trust and often despise all those who are not like us, who are not of our own fearsome dark warrior kind. Our honourable duty as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to be ready, willing, and able to defend ourselves, in any situation, and to be prepared to use lethal force to so defend ourselves. Our honourable duty as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to be loyal to, and to defend, our own kind: to do our duty, even unto death, to those to whom we have sworn a personal oath of loyalty. Our obligation as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to seek revenge, if necessary unto death, against anyone who acts dishonourably toward us, or who acts dishonourably toward those to whom we have sworn a personal oath of loyalty. Our obligation as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to never willingly submit to any mundane; to die fighting rather than surrender to them; to die rather than allow ourselves to be dishonourably humiliated by them. Our obligation as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to never trust any oath or any pledge of loyalty given, or any promise made, by any mundane, and to be wary of them at all times. Our honourable duty as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to settle our serious disputes, among ourselves, by either trial by combat, or by a duel involving deadly weapons; and to challenge to a duel anyone mundane, or one of our own kind who impugns our honour or who makes dishonourable accusations against us. Our honourable duty as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to settle our non-serious disputes, among ourselves, by having a man or woman of honour from among us, who is highly esteemed because of their honour and known for their honourable deeds, arbitrate and decide the matter for us, and to honourably accept without question, and to abide by, their decision. Our honourable duty as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to always keep our word, once we have given our word on our honour, for to break ones word is a dishonourable, cowardly, and mundane, act.

Our honourable duty as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to act honourably in all our dealings with our own honourable kind; to strive to be fair, and courteous, with those of our own kind. Our obligation as individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen is to marry only those from our own kind, who thus, like us, live by honour and are prepared to die to save their honour. Our honourable, our Dreccian, duty as Dreccian individuals who live by the Law of the Sinister-Numen means that an oath of loyalty or allegiance, once sworn by a man or woman of honour (I swear by my honour that I shall) can only be ended either: (1) by the man or woman of honour formally asking the person to whom the oath was sworn to release them from that oath, and that person agreeing so to release them; or (2) by the death of the person to whom the oath was sworn. Anything else is dishonourable, and the act of a mundane. 120 Year of Fayen 3 Acausal Darkness In essence, The Dark Tradition is concerned with personal and supra-personal change; with evolution to higher forms; with the creation of a new type of human being. To do this, we need vision; we need to feel the Satanic spirit of defiance and joy the dark acausal within us. We need challenges; we need tests; we need to accept and become that force of Nature, of the very Cosmos, which selects through weeding out the mundanes: those who are content; those whose spirit is inertial instead of promethean. The simple truth is that we of The Dark Tradition represent, and re-present, the Chaos that is acausal and which is the genesis of evolution toward higher forms and a higher existence, while the others the mundanes represent and are the stultifying normality of the ponderous causal, and/or represent and are what is de-evolutionary. The stark acausal reality is that the mundanes are either expendable, or are at their best raw material to be motivated toward change. We present them with both this possibility of change toward a higher, sinister, existence and with the practical chaos, terror and heresy which serves to remind them of who and what they really are. For, as has been written:

42 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

It is of fundamental importance to evolution both individual and otherwise that what is Dark, Sinister or Satanic is made real in a practical way, over and over again. That is, that what is dangerous, awesome, numinous, tragic, deadly, terrible, terrifying and beyond the power of ordinary mortals, laws or governments to control is made manifest. In eect, non-Initiates (and even Initiates) need constantly reminding that such things still exist; they need constantly to be brought face-to-face, and touched, with what is, or appears to be, inexplicable, uncontrollable, powerful and evil. They need reminding of their own mortality of the unforeseen, inexplicable powers of Fate, of the powerful force of Nature. If this means killing, wars, suffering, sacrice, terror, disease. tragedy and disruption, then such things must be for it is one of the duties of a Satanic Initiate to so presence the dark, and prepare the way for, or initiate, the change and evolution which always result from such things. Such things as these must be, and always will be, because the majority of people are or will remain, inert and sub-human unless changed. The majority is and always will be until it evolves to become something else raw material to be used, moulded, cut-away and shaped to create what must be. There is no such thing as an innocent person because everyone who exists is part of the whole, the change, the evolution, the presencing of life itself, which is beyond them, and their life only has meaning through the change, development and evolution of life. Their importance is what they can become, or what can be achieved through their death. their tragedy, their living their importance does not lie in their individual happiness or their individual desires or whatever. The very Cosmos itself is change; a fluxion of causal and acausal. Our change as human beings at this moment in our history, and currently and mostly bound as we are to the causal is to leave our childhood home, this planet, and expand outward to explore the stars and planets of our galaxy, to discover, to test ourselves, to find challenges great enough to change us in their overcoming; for it is this leaving this growing to maturity which will be the practical breeding ground of a new, higher, human species. It is this vision of such a change, of such challenges, of such a new human species which suffuses the ONA, its inner Aeonic magick, its mythos, its nexions, its associates, and those intrepid individuals inspired by any or all of these. It is lack of such a vision a lack of inner acausal darkness; a lack of Satanic ethos which distinguishes the Old Order, bound as this Old Order is to this

43 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

planet, and bound as it is to satisfying the craving for safety and law which the mundanes, the normals, in their simian-like existence crave. Everything that enables the achievement of this grand dark vision of ours is a causal form worth using; while everything that militates against our Cosmic sinister vision our motivating mythos, our esoteric ethos is to be despised, countered, and fought. To change, to evolve, to be of the acausal darkness and thus the genesis of both our individual change and that of others, we need to be, in a practical and personal way, and in the words of one sinister Adept the darkness which is necessary and without which evolution and knowledge are impossible We also need to be our own opposite: to venture between and beyond we need to-be - the causal forms of Good and Evil, Light and Dark, and then treat those forms for the imposters, the illusions they are, to then leave them far behind us, having learnt from them, having grown from and because of them. Then and only then will we have taken the rst leap beyond the Abyssal Unknown toward being the genesis, the spawn, of a new higher human species. 120 Year of Fayen 4 Dark Warriors of The Sinister Way The simple yet esoteric truth is that we are, or we aspire to be, practical warriors of our dark, Sinister Way, and it is this simple truth which distinguishes us from all other paths, ways, groups, or people, who claim to be, or who in their delusion believe themselves to be, satanists and/or practitioners of The Dark Arts. For to us belong practical sinister, amoral, deeds. For to us belongs that joyful ecstatic exultation in life that arises when we as individuals, or as part of our own sinister collective, our own local sinister tribe or group take ourselves not only to and beyond our limits, physical, and otherwise, but also to and far beyond the limits (moral and otherwise) set by the mundanes and which limits those mundanes have prescribed or ordained by some law or other. For to us belongs that knowing that feeling that it is the acausal which animates the causal, and which is the essence of life, of Change, of the sinister itself.

Thus do we know thus do we feel that death itself is irrelevant, an illusion, a mere ending of a mere causal existence, and that it is what we do with the opportunities that this, our causal life, offers and can oer us, that is important. Thus we do not fear death, and instead defy it, just as we seek to defy ourselves what we are, now and just as we seek to defy the mudanes and all those causal restrictions, those causal forms, that they have created to make them feel safe, and secure and content with their mundane un-warrior like merely causal and thus un-numinous existence. Thus because of our defiance of death itself do we and thus should we terrify the mudanes, and thus do the mudanes fear us, and thus do we, with our practical amoral, sinister, deeds, reveal all those of other paths, ways, groups, for the weaklings, the pretentious pseuds, the charlatans, and the pretenders, that they are: mundanes trying to cloak themselves with some of our sinister glamour. For we are the one who cull, in real life: as a challenge, as a joy; as means of Presencing The Dark, of implementing our personal and our aeonic, dialectic: of Change, Chaos, and evolution. We are the ones, who because of our practical and our esoteric training, are controlled in control of ourselves, and of our feelings, our emotions; trained, prepared to, and capable of, directing our dark passion, our vitality, our defiance, our terror and our joy, however and whenever we wish. We are the ones who seek to challenge ourselves; to change ourselves; to evolve; to transform ourselves into a new type of human being. Thus to us and our sinister kind belong great dreams; great visions; the imagination, the desire, of the explorer; the feral character of the true warrior; the primal rage of the berserker; and the sensitive passion of a lover. Thus do we as a sinister kindred, as a sinister collective, as sinister tribes seek to transgress all the limits set and made by the mundanes and their societies, and thus do we laugh at them, play our sinister games with them, and consider them as our resource, but always ready, willing and able as we are to find those few from among those mundanes who might possess some potential, something of our own sinister nature. Thus will we recruit, train and guide those few who like us dare to defy and who see or who feel the societies of the mudanes for the impersonal tyranny that they are. Thus are we as warriors of our dark Sinister Way honourable with those of our own kind: honourable with our own brothers and sisters, and with those who support us and do not betray us; and thus are we harsh and ruthless with our enemies.

For our Way, the Way of The Dark Warrior, is the practical way of being tough; of being armed, and trained and prepared to ght, to kill, to defend ourselves, and defend those of our own tribe, our own sinister kindred. Our Way is the practical way of being loyal, unto death, to our own kind, of having respect for our kind, and disdain and hatred for our enemies. Our Way is the practical, warrior, way of never, ever, betraying one of our own kind to the mudanes and to their so-called forces of law and order, and of killing, without hesitation and without remorse, anyone from among us or from our local supporters who does so betray us. For our Way, the Way of The Dark Warrior, is the Way of those who prefer death to dishonour and who prefer to die fighting rather than having to surrender to any mundane or to the so-called forces of law and order of the mundanes. For our Way, the Way of The Dark Warrior, is to obtain what we need by whatever means from the mundanes, and to lose no sleep over so obtaining what we need to survive, to live, to prosper as we will. Thus do we, thus should we and thus will will, redistribute the wealth, the goods, of our enemies, of the mudanes, to those in the areas where we live who support us and who do not betray us. Thus are we by our practical deeds, by our ethos, by our very tribal way of life distinguished from all other paths, ways, groups, or people, who claim to be, or who in their delusion believe themselves to be, satanists and/or practitioners of The Dark Arts. 120 Year of Fayen 5 Satanism The Epitome of Evil Let us not be mis-understood: genuine Satanists are evil. They question, seek to know, and they defy. They champion, advocate, and propagate and most importantly live, as a way of defiance and ecstasy whatever is genuinely heretical, or forbidden, in the societies of their times. They cause, and strive to cause, Chaos, disruption, revolution, and thus causal Change. They are the fomenters of, and the agents of, evil, of genuine darkness. They are adversarial; agents of genuine human evolution, which evolution only and ever arises from an acceptance of challenges and the application of the Sinister Dialectic: from the direct causal presencing of acausal darkness. They cause harm, disaster, corruption, and death; they bring joy, ecstasy and laughter, but perhaps most of all they bring death and sometimes, or often, before the due time to those deserving of such an early death: death to those who have
46 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

shown by their actions that they have a weak character or are a nuisance, or a hindrance to the spread of darkness, to the creation of the new from the destruction, the change, of the old. Genuine Satanists are dangerous people to know; associating with them is a risk. They might get you in trouble with the Police; they might make you into a real outlaw; they might bring you to the notice of the Intelligence Services. They are trouble, and their psyche is contagious: and can break others, or bring them misfortune, or drive them toward inner breakdown or even madness. Their Way, our Way that of genuine Satanism is the Way of the self-controlled individual, not the way of sycophancy to, or obedience to, some doctrine or some person or some creed; not the way of those in thrall to their desires, conscious or unconscious. Satanists do not seek to be understood nor accepted nor lauded by the majority, just as they are shapeshifters in character and way of life, who may use and often do so use some form, or some way of life for their own sinister, dialectical ends. Thus are they a genuine enigma, seldom appreciated, in their own life, for who and what they are and for what they have done and are doing. Their deeds and goals once they have learnt their trade and become professional, Masters and Mistresses of the Dark Arts are not personal or undirected, casual, ones. Instead, their deeds are directed, intentional, often detached, and arise from their knowledge of, their understanding of, the Sinister Dialectic: of what is needed in the causal times in which they live; what is needed to radically disrupt, to challenge, to defy, to presence darkness and evil, and bring Chaos and the evolution that derives therefrom. Thus do they, in so presencing the darkness, revel in life, and enjoy. Thus do they, so causing Chaos, defy and break or seek to break the restrictive forms, structures, laws, and Institutions, that still hold people in thrall. The way of ordinary life, of ordinary mortals, is the way of control, of restrictions; of authority, of a supra-personal law. It is the way of those forms, those abstractions such as governments, and States and prisons and religions which have been constructed to control, to restrict, to bully, to level-down, to enforce submission. The way of ordinary life, of ordinary un-evolved mortals, is the way of minimizing risk, the way of hypocrisy, of the lies and the deceit and the envy and jealousy born from weakness and cowardice and the dishonour of the bully. In direct contrast, the Path of the genuine Satanist is the difficult Dark Path of inner strength, of joining, being, opposites, and of going beyond opposites: the path of evolved human beings exemplified in one way by the openness of the fighting warrior who believes in their very being that the only genuine real law and real justice is the law, the justice, of personal honour, of a fair ght, of fair retribution, and of being responsible for oneself. Thus is the Way of the Satanist the Way of the Dark Warrior who, in real life in the real

world, fights the tyranny of those who, weak of character, oppress: the Dark Warrior who fights all that oppresses and stifles our potential, and hinders our evolution into a higher race of human beings whose rightful place is among the star-systems of this, and other, Galaxies. 119 AoB 6 Satanic Sacrifice and Satanic Thinking

Satanic Sacrifice If there is one thing which expresses the essence of the Satanic ethos it is culling; and if there is one way to detect a pseudo-Satanist it is their attitude to culling. As it says in our pledge of allegiance to Satan: I accept there is no law, no authority, no justice Except my own And that culling is a necessary act of Life. I believe in one guide, Satan, And in our right to rule mundanes. The Order of Nine Angles has always advocated culling, maintaining it is a Satanic practice; the ONA will always advocate culling. Why? Because there are mundanes, and us. A basic principle of Satanism is that mundanes are not only a resource, for us, but also expendable. This, in essence, arises from our Satanic morality that we are better, more valuable, than mundanes. The pseudo-Satanists are appalled by this attitude, just like Nazarenes are. For these pseudo-Satanists, sacrice means some sort of self-sacrice, where, for example, they say stupid things like: Those who seek energy outside of their minds and wills, are too weak for the practice of Magic To us, this is just Nazarene-speak, covered by the slick words of weedy charlatans. For they are basically weak, afraid. They do not have our lan, our style, our satanic ethos, our elitist morality our defiance of mundanes and everything mundane. To such Nazarene-speak we Satanists say: why should we, in some ritual for
48 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

example, denude ourselves of energy when mundanes can supply not only whatever energy we may need but also give us energy to enhance our ritual and our lives? There is a reason, of course, why our Dark Goddess, Baphomet, is called The Mother of Blood. Our Sorcery, our Magick, is really Black, really Dark, genuinely Sinister. Dangerous. Satanism is a defiance of mundanes, a defiance of mundanity, par excellence. Satanism is the ethos of arte, which means we judge people according to their personal character. The worthless are worthless; expendable. Therefore, why should we not put them to good use? For us, culling is natural fact of life of how we live, or how we desire to live. Of course, there are dierent ways of culling mundanes not every culling takes place, or needs to take place, in some Satanic ceremony or ritual, although obviously that is a great source of Satanic joy. A good way of culling is war; another is stirring up religious and political conict; another is insurrection, revolution, assassinations, and so on. In fact, any means of conflict offers opportunities for culling; opportunities for those of Satanic character to weed out the weeds and reduce the surplus population of mundanes. Another, more personal way and a good means of developing Satanic character are accidents. And so on. You get the idea.

Satanic Thinking Every Satanist should question everything. Satanists should question, in particular, everything that mundanes hold dear, need, and believe in. What, today do most mundanes hold dear, need, and believe in? 1) The concept of the nation-State; 2) The need for government and laws; and the need to respect those laws; 3) The need for Police to enforce laws and arrest those who transgress laws made by mundanes for mundanes; 4) The need to earn a living by respectable means, and pay taxes And so on. So, as Satanists we question the need for nations, for States, for governments, for Police forces, for laws, for taxes. And, having questioned, we arrive at the answer that such things are mundane; made by mundanes for mundanes and as a means of punishing those who do not want to be mundanes and who naturally do not want to live like mundanes. Thus, we Satanically desire to subvert, to undermine, to overthrow, to destroy,
49 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

such mundane things, since for us there are no laws, no authority, no justice, except our own. We simply do not need governments, nations, States, Police forces, taxes, and all the other things that mundanes worship and have spent centuries protecting and defending and trying to convince us we need. For we are rebels, outlaws, subversives. We are baleful opponents of mundanes and everything mundane. We are, or we strive to be, armed and dangerous and capable of defending ourselves. We simply do not need any Police forces, and mundanes laws, any government, to protect us. We would rather die, fighting and defiant, than allow anyone to subdue us. Basically, governments, nations, States and their paraphernalia, such as Police forces, prisons, and laws are a means of control, a means to subdue and make us conform. But we Satanically desire to live in our way Satanic way which is the way of real freedom: the way of clans, of tribes, of gangs, where we take care of our own, where we protect our own kind, where we are loyal to only our own kind. Where we consider those who are not of us, not our kind, are our enemies, either real, or potential. So, good riddance to mundane trash. Good riddance to everything mundane. For we Satanically desire to create a new world, whose archetypes are Satan Lord of Darkness and of Chaos and Baphomet, Mistress of Earth and Mother of Bloody Sacrifices. A world where we rule mundanes, and thus where our personal Satanic Destiny is or can be fulfilled, and where our dark, sinister, Satanic Wyrd is implemented. 120 Year of Fayen

7 The Pseudo-Satanism of Mundanes Lets get a few things straight, from the start Satanism is about what is evil, Dark, dangerous, terrifying, heretical, sinister, beguiling, and immoral. Satan is, for the West, the archetype of everything the mundanes the stis, and their governments fear, dread, and desire be saved from, and which they have made laws against. Expressed in two good words Satanism is numinously sinister. That is, it possesses a certain dark innate attraction for certain types of human being: for those (a small minority) who are restless, who are unsatisfied with the all answers offered by mundanes, who naturally detest the life-style of all mundanes; who love danger, who crave death-defying excitement, and who would rather die, laughing and defiant and fighting, than surrender to anyone

else. These human beings are those who tend to become the real outlaws of mundane society; who become professional criminals; who become mercenaries, adventurers, explorers, assassins; who become manipulative leaders: political, military, religious, of organized crime, of street gangs, or whatever. Does this sound like the Church of Satan CoS and its derivatives, or The Temple of Set (ToS)? No of course not. The members of the CoS are about as scary and dangerous as kindergarten kids dressed up for Halloween, while the members of the ToSers are about as Satanic as College freshmen who, having watched some scary horror movie and drunk too much beer, decide to light some candles and conjure up, in their dorm, some demon with a Hebrew name from some text they found in a special color supplement to Occult and Tarot Monthly (Incorporating The Tame Satanic Witch) and who then spend weeks (or months) discussing, and talking and writing about, their titillating satanic experience. The same goes for all those the majority who in their mundaneness ape and hype the mundane pseudo-satanism of LaVey and Aquino, and for whom fantasy, role-playing, and pretentious pseudo-intellectualism are a substitute for direct and dangerous sinister experience. The type of people who infest Internet forums and groups with their wordy spiel but who have never, ever, done anything really dark, evil, dangerous, heretical, in their lives: something that might land them in jail, if caught; or might make them real heretics and outcasts with their neighbours and government; or might through its nearness to and possibility of death provide them with that once-in-a-lifetime ecstatic affirmation of life that will forever change them. There is a simple test to distinguish a Satanist a Comrade of Satan, friend of the dangerous sinister-numen of Satanism, who lives in a sinister way and who does practical sinister deeds from a pseudo-satanist. And it is how they deal with the question of human culling. For the Satanist, this is not a matter for debate it is a fact of their life or a passionate, as yet unsatised, desire they have within them and need to full; one means by which they can Presence The Dark. For the pseudo-satanist, however, it is a question often avoided, and if pressed something they consider immoral and illegal and which they bleat is not part of and never has been part of satanism In a real way, the so-called satanism of the CoS (and its derivatives and imitators) and of the ToSers (and its derivative and imitators) is only the pathetic imitation safe rebellion of mundanes, who in their mundaneness like to believe they are doing something exciting and forbidden. This so-called satanism is but part of The System (the Magian system) designed to
51 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

keep humans tame safe, and no threat to governments, to society, to the mundane status quo. A safety valve for those too dumb and un-satanic to see The System and such pseudo-satanism for what they really are. No wonder then, that this so-called satanism depends upon, is derived from, and propagates, the Hebrew-Nazarene qabala and such things as Hebrew-Nazarene derived grimoires, sigils, words, myths, and magick. It is also no wonder that mundane dumb-ass pretenders, too fearful and weak of character to be real Satanists, often spend a great deal of time complaining about and trying to discredit both The Order of Nine Angles and its members, for the ONA, with its sinister tribes (gangs) and its practical sinister guides, is the only group to be and to express what is really Satanic to support culling, to be heretical, to champion and express what is numinously sinister what is dangerous, testing, difficult, terrifying, and unlawful according to the laws made to ensure a society of tame and mostly tax-paying mundanes. 121 yf

8 The Difference Between Us The fundamental difference between us, The Drecc, and the mundanes is that we exult in the physicality of life, of living in the dangerous moment, while they think, dream, and prepare for their future and for their safety. Thus do we exult in combat, in crime in walking armed and exulting and fearless into some place and taking what we need to survive. Thus do we live for and plan for some confrontation or other when every second of every moment may be our last or the means of our escape to live again to thrive, to exult, as some higher type of human being. Thus do we exult in Dance, when music plays, throbbing around and within us, and we and our partner become the very life, the very breathing, of love, passion, joy, exultation and Being, and nothing exits for us in then except the beauty, the passion, of our bodily movement, our physical exertion, through which and by which and in which and because of which we transcend to a more pure, higher, form of living which the mudanes never know or never even feel. Thus do we exult in and often need that exhilaration and ecstasy of physical speed when we recklessly drive or fly as we drive or fly some powerful machine which we control by sheer exhilaration and that skill that our kind of life has breed within us unheedful as we rush forth in our ecstasy of all

52 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

conventions and all laws that the mundanes have manufactured and put in place and which they try to enforce to discourage, contain and control our kind of dangerous higher human life. Thus do we exult in the passion of a physical, sexual, joining, and the games we play before in anticipation of such a physical joining; for we love the chase almost as much as we love the union itself. for there is Life, the essence of our human existence, there in such a joining, in such a prelude and anticipation of such joining. Thus do we exult in the power we feel as we strive against ourselves and all others as we, armed, walk the shadowed silence of some alley in anticipation of attack, prepared and ruthless enough as the predator we are to injure, fight, and kill. Thus do we exult in opposition to all those forces of so-called law and order which the mundanes love and often worship and most surely in their weakness need for we love to outwit them; to play our games with them, as we love to cruise in anticipation of some armed confrontation with them and our enemies, unheedful as we are of our own mortality, our own death, for is the very possibility of death that enchants and makes us what we are, powerful, strong, fearless, a breed apart. Thus do we exult in danger and risk and risk our own lives, and that of others, because in such risk and such danger is that exultation of a growing evolving life which changes and which can seed us to be, to become, that higher type of being which the mundanes in their very mundane-ness fear and which they in their fear and in their morbid love of safety and of planning try and try to outlaw and make illegal. Thus do we live with them in their world, for now using them and their life, their society, as a resource, as the resource we need to live life on that higher life that makes us what we are, for now while we have to endure living only on this planet, Earth. Thus are we outlaws, criminals, terrorists, chancers, explorers, adventurers, racketeers, for we know all the laws of the mudanes for the tyranny they are: a tireless attempt to prevent us from making our life into a succession of ecstasies. 120 yf 9 The Joy of the Sinister

53 of 59

Order of Nine Angles

What is the most important and interesting thing I can say about the sinister path that I have followed for over thirty years? It is that is teaches us, and enables us, to live life on a higher, dierent level. That is, to exult in life itself: a sinister life is, or should be, one where there is an intensity; where there is action, in the world; where there is a will harnessed to a goal any goal; a desire to experience, to know; to quest; where there is an arrogant determination to not accept the norms, the answers, the limits of and set by others. Nothing is too dangerous for us; nothing is forbidden. We experience to test ourselves; to learn. There is a pushing of ones body to and beyond its limits; enduring, to go beyond endurance to that wonderful bliss of almost exhaustion when a goal has been achieved and one has felt, been, an exquisite harmony of mind and body and ethos through sheer concentration on what is being done. There is the acceptance of challenges especially by ourselves. And if we have no challenges, we make or create some. These are the moments days, weeks of exquisite pleasure; these are the moments are an exquisite yearning; these are the moments of an exquisite joy; these are the moments days, weeks of an exquisite exultation; and yet a true sinister life is one where there are moments, days, of an ineffable sadness: because one has seen, known, understood, and because one feels more than most other people. There is a symbiosis here which has to be experienced to be really understood; a symbiosis which mere mortals would and do find strange. And it is our will which brings the opposites together and enables us to transcend beyond even these. What must be accepted by those venturing upon, or following, the sinister path is that we can be so much more than we realize: we have so much potential, physical, intellectual; psychic; magickal; creative. We who follow the sinister way strive to make our whole life an act of magick; we become magick; we are magick. All true magick is an intimation of what we can be: of what awaits in the next phase of our human evolution. There is nothing complicated about our Way, our dark, chosen, path; there is, in truth, nothing secret about it. How do you tell who is upon the true sinister path? It is revealed in their eyes; even in the way they walk. There is something slightly dangerous about such a person. There is something about such a person which mere mortals find slightly disturbing; something they cannot quite work out, or explain. Such a person is strong, but the depth of their strength is mostly hidden, although

many people can sense it in some way. And what is the ultimate end to a sinister life? To die trying to overcome: to be questing even toward the very end. 114yf

Addendum Some Esoteric Terms Explained

Drecc Someone who lives a practical sinister life, and thus who lives by The Law of the Sinister-Numen (qv) and who thus Presences The Dark in practical ways by practical sinister deeds. A sinister tribe is a territorial and independent group of Dreccs (often including drecclings that is, the children of Dreccs) who band together for their mutual advantage and who rule or who seek to rule over a particular area, neighbourhood, or territory. A sinister tribe is thus a practical manifestation of the Dreccian way of life. Dreccs, and their associated tribe, rarely engage in overt practical sorcery and mostly do not describe themselves as Satanists or even as following the LHP. Instead, they describe and refer to themselves, simply, as Drecc. Homo Hubris A new sub-species of the genus, Homo, which new sub-species has evolved out of the Western industrial revolution and the imposition of both capitalism and that stupidity that goes by the term democracy. Homo Hubris is thus a particular type of mundane, and can generally be found living in urban areas. Their most distinguishing feature is that they lack any instinct for or feeling for, or understanding of, personal honour, and can be generally identied by their lack of manners, their addiction to the vacuous, vulgar manufactured mass entertainment industry and mass pop culture of the modern West, and by their lack of self-insight and their lack of self-control, evident as this lack of self-control is in their frequent indulgent love of and need for intoxicants and stimulants with that which, with anything, which can intoxicate them or provide them with some passing selsh pleasure.

Law of The Sinister-Numen The Law of The Sinister-Numen (aka The Sinister Code) is a practical manifestation, in our causal continuum, of the Sinister-Numen of those things which can breed excellence of sinister character in individuals, and thus which Presence The Dark in practical ways. Our Sinister Code is a practical and modern manifestation of the ancient law and ethos of personal honour, which law and ethos of personal honour is the essence of the warrior way of living. The Law of The Sinister-Numen also describes the sinister ethos of The Order of Nine Angles, and is the basis for the way of life of our Dark Warriors. Mundane Exoterically, mundanes are defined as those who are not of our sinister kind that is, as those who do not live by The Law of the Sinister-Numen. Esoterically, mundane-ness is defined as being under the influence of, or being in thrall to, or being addicted to, and/or believing in, and/or using as a means of understanding, causal abstractions. Abstractions (aka causal abstractions) are manifestations of the primary (causal) nature of mundanes, and are manufactured by mundanes in their mundane attempt to understand the world, themselves, and the causal Universe. Exoterically, abstractions re-present the mundane simplicity of causal linearality of causal reductionism, of a simple cause-and-effect, of a limited causal thinking. All abstractions are devoid of Dark-Empathy and the perspective of acausality, and thus are redolent of, or directly manifest, materialism and the Untermensch ethos derived from such materialism. Understood exoterically, an abstraction is the manufacture, and use of, some idea, ideal, image or category, and thus some generalization, and/or some assignment of an individual or individuals to some group or category. The positing of some perfect or ideal form, category, or thing, is part of abstraction. Abstractions hide the true nature of Reality which is both causal and acausal, and which true nature can be apprehended and understood by means of The Dark Arts, and thus by following the Occult way from Initiate, to Adept, and beyond.

Naos 1) The name of one of the "boards" (spheres) of The Star Game, taken from the star of the same name: Zeta Puppis in the constellation Argo. 2) The title of the ONA text Naos - A Practical Guide to Becoming An Adept. 3) According to aural legend, there is also a Star Gate - an actual physical nexion - in the region around or near to this particular star. Nexion A nexion is a specific connexion between, or the intersection of, the causal and the acausal, and nexions can, exoterically, be considered to be akin to "gates" or openings or "tunnels" where there is, or can be, either a flow of acausal energy (and thus also of acausal entities) from the acausal into our causal Space and causal Time; a journeying into the acausal itself; or a willed, conscious flow or presencing (by dark sorcery) of acausal energies. Basically, there are three main types of nexion. The first is an actual physical nexion. The second type of nexion is a living causal being, such as ourselves. The third type of nexion is a magickal creation: that is, some form in-which acausal energy is presenced or "channelled into" by a sinister Adept. [For more details of these three types see the ONA MS The Mythos of the Dark Gods.] Order of Nine Angles (ONA) The ONA is a subversive, sinister, esoteric association comprising Sinister Tribes, Dreccs, Traditional Nexions, Sinister-Empaths, individual Sorcerers (male and female), and Balobians. One of the primary aims of the ONA is to develope a new type of human being by using and developing our latent abilities (by means of The Dark Arts) and by breeding a new type of individual character, with this new type of character being a sinister one which itself can only be nurtured and developed by practical means and through practical exeatic deeds. Satanism According to the ONA, Satanism is a specific Left Hand Path, one aim of which is to transform, to evolve, the individual by the use of esoteric Arts, including
57 of 59 Order of Nine Angles

Order of Nine Angles - T he NonEssential Anton Long

Dark Sorcery. Another aim is, through using the Sinister Dialectic, to transform the world, and the causal itself, by for example returning, presencing, in the causal, not only the entity known as Satan but also others of The Dark Gods. In essence, and thus esoterically, Satanism as understood and practised by the ONA (presenced by means of Traditional Nexions) is one important exoteric form appropriate to the current Aeon, and thus useful in Presencing The Dark.
