Roots of Ragnarok


Roots Of Ragnarok

By Ron McVan


Midgard is the cradle that rocks above the abyss---our existence
is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness.

The great Solar-myth underlies all the ancient mythologies. It commemorates the death and resurrection of the sun. It signifies the destruction of the light by the clouds, the darkness and the eventual return of the great luminary of the world. That which was most instrumental in conforming mankind to adopt the solar based religions took place in a time long before our written history. It was a thing so terrible, so incomprehensible, pitiless and destructive, that even today its dreadful aftermath still lingers deep in the genetic memory of all mankind.

In the Northern European pagan religion of Wotanism, this dreadful End of Days cataclysm is symbolized by three ominous spectres known as: Fenris Wolf, the giant world Midgard Serpent Jormungand and Garm the Dog. The Southern Europeans knew them as: Python and Typhaon and Cacus, which is the same as Vritra in the Indo-European sanskrit. The Christian bible referred to them as Satan, Behemoth and Leviathan. Yet, there is simply one name to describe the most terrible and unstoppable monster serpent of all, "The Great Comet."

Horned Gods


Horned Gods
By Ron McVan
As long as a people live, their gods are immortal. The gods and goddesses of our folk help us to navigate that great mystery of life which manifests from the One. No true pagan has ever been gnawed by doubt about the divine nature; only those who betray the God within and sacrifice their soul to an eternal alien, and thereby the eternal unknown......

Heroic Ethic




Heroic Ethic
By Ron McVan

"A happy life is impossible, the highest to which a
man can attain is a heroic course of life."
.............................Schopenhauer

Heroism may be considered the epitome of all the Aryan values, the single most life expression of sacrificial will, transformation and vitalism, so explicity exemplified throughout Western Euro-mythology and folklore. The hero occupies that sacred precinct through which he begins a new aspect of self evolution between man and the divine. It is the deed of the hero to bridge these realms as he stands before his gods, the seeker and the found, the outside and the inside of a single self-mirrored mystery.

In the purest tradition, the hero is not content with the limitations of mere human existence as his adventures serve to elevate him well beyond the common state of man. His journey, is a journey along the path of a valorous and fearless choice which he views as his personal quest and destiny. The very crux of the hero's venture is his own self-realization and clear sense of purpose found through the crowning reunion with his "hamingja", a term used by the ancient Norse to denote "the god-self" in man.

HIGH C's of TREASON


HIGH C's of TREASON
By Ron McVan


"The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and woman submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them by their governments."
......................William E. Borah

(Constantine) Today's Christians still venerate the Roman emperor Constantine to saintly status as the Great Christian liberator. In truth, Constantine was far from saintly throughout his life. The nature of Constantine's conversion to the Christian faith has long been a matter of dispute. Though he used the banner of Christianity to secure power and reek havoc and slaughter upon his pagan enemies, he refused to be baptised until he was on his death bed.

Sun of God


Sun of God
by Ron McVan
Amid the radiant orbs, that more than deck, that animate the sky,
The life-infusing suns of other worlds…..
The enlighten’d few…..
they in their powers exult, that wondrous force of thought,
which mounting spurns this dusky spot, and measures all the sky.
James Thomson - 1746

The sun as symbol of both God the creator and of his representative son, to the Egyptians, was a symbol of immortality, for, while the sun died every night, it rose again with each ensuing dawn. From the sun came the concept of the Trinity which finds its way into all the great religions. Trinities in every instance represent the threefold form of the one Supreme Intelligence. When Christians proclaim that one cannot find the father except through the son Jesus Christ, it is that Jesus, as solar deity, not unlike Baldur of Euro based Wotanism, or Lugh and Bel of the Celtic pantheon, or Apollo of the Olympian pantheon, or Ra, Horus, or Thoth-Hermes of ancient Aryan Egypt all likewise serve their respective religion as son of God, teachers of spiritual truth and bearers of light.

Apollonius of Tyana

APOLLONIOUS OF TYANA
By Ron McVan

"There is no death of anyone, but only in appearance, even as there is no birth of any, save only in seeming. The change from being to becoming seems to be birth, and the change from becoming to being seems to be death, but in reality no one is ever born, nor does one ever die. It is simply a being visible and then invisible; the former through the density of matter, and the latter because of the subtlety of being----being which is ever the same, its only change being motion and rest. For being has this necessary peculiarity, that its change is brought about by nothing external to itself; but whole becomes parts and parts become whole in the oneness of the all." ......................PLATO
