My views on worship – July 8, 2025

The practice of worship serves the purpose of the transcendental in the lives of ordinary men, for worship is man's way of showing his respect towards the qualities of men better than himself in life—it is the way of ordinary men to extol those men that are noble, the men of ascendant rank. To be better in the transcendental sense has very little to do with the concept of being superior in the material sense, for all men have the same qualities that make them men and essentially capable of ascending above the material, and for the purposes of finding order within chaos it is a necessary thing for ordinary men to extol and worship men of better and more refined qualities than themselves, men who have earned their noble rank for a reason. It is not conducive or in the best interest of ordinary men to demand egalitarianism, and this is indeed true in the material domain as well, for only the man of right expertise is expected to rearrange the material in such a way that the circumstances of the individual ordinary man or a great many ordinary men should come to be less adverse. Every man has an innate need to worship, for the sake of the orderly outside of himself, the extra order, but also for his own sake, his innate order, for the world can only exist within order if men live with order inside; the qualities of "extra order" and man's "innate order" are very much complementary. The societal fabric would not find itself ordered if man was not woven into, a clear and necessary part, of that fabric, and indeed the fabric itself would come apart at the seems, for men without meaning and proper direction quickly find themselves wayward among other men on the high seas, all without any land nearby. In that sense, worship serves the purpose of the lighthouse – a guide for man to find dry land. All the great religions of the world and of history have certain sacred qualities in common and worship is one of them, seen over and over again, and this is for a fundamental purpose: men recognized and have always recognized the need to stay firmly anchored to the small and parochial qualities of life, so that it could be possible to extrapolate goodness onto the rest of the world – to operate for everyone's benefit man must know what to look for in the creation and this always begins close to home.

    In the era of the Kali Yuga, our time, men do not worship men that can be described as better than themselves; instead men worship men of lower rank, men that live for the material and that believe themselves to be the highest being, the beast. Verily, the hierarchy of values in the modern world is not anchored to the celestial order, for it has been inverted and is now instead, anchored in sin and lust; to value highly in modern times is to value the low and the primitive, the animal in the form of the beast. Increasingly, it can be noted that the imposition of pure doctrine based on the transcendent nature of religion is considered to be "oppressive" and an upfront in the face of the humanist axiom that asserts with more fervor that men in their "natural" state, as close to the animal form as possible, is the truly enlightened man of the reasoned mind, for the liberated man does not worship anyone else than himself and his own lust and need to be liberated from the natural and celestial order—the liberated man has nothing to fear for he is the final form, the solution to the human condition, the beast.

    What is the purpose of worship for the man who seeks guidance in modern times? The purpose of worship remains regardless of man's idolatry, for worship as a human need, to find order within and in the world, is an absolute and does not change because of the degeneration of the world around him, the far seeing man, and regardless of his seemingly hopeless circumstances, the need for him to worship will only grow as a function of evermore decay. The moral law above the Earth, the celestial order, won't give into the beast, thus modern man will only degenerate further, until the degeneration has completely laid the world in ruins at the close of the Kali Yuga, a time that we are approaching fast. At the close of the Kali Yuga, right before the dawn of the new era, few men will have survived the tribulations of the final times and they will have been extolled as the heroes of humanity, for they will be the only ones capable of becoming born again and of the rebirth. The scales of the celestial order will be put into proper balance, with or without the consent of man, and as the word approaches the final phase, the final solution to the human condition, it will become apparent that the only solution to man's condition is entropy, and the willing chaos will be made completely apparent and the world of the beast and of the material will end, and the men of sin and lust will be vomited out of the material arena – for only the men of pure compassion will remain to rebuild the world anchored to the moral order. In the meantime, there is no need to fear, for the world will only become more dilapidated and erratic; of this you can be certain. Embrace purity through the worship of men with better skills, men that have attained skillful means, and reject the material order – ascend sin and lust.
