Habits?
Tuesday – May 5, 2026

Habits belong to the category of things, places and spaces that pertain to "ordinary life". Ordinary life, of course, belongs to another category, or rather you may say that ordinary life is an inferior principle of the larger and overriding principle of modernity, or if you want to put it this way: anti-traditional action. Now, I do not care how you choose to conceive of these matters; what is important here is that you understand principles and operate from within them, and this begins with the recognition that a principle may only be suited for a particular modality, and that principles that are subordinate may never be fully adequate enough in the anterior modalities; an example of this would be how faith and religiosity operates in the exterior modality as opposed to how true knowledge operates in the esoteric modality, read "Qualification" for more on that. This intercommunication, although one-sided, applies no less in the domain of modern confusion, really not a domain properly so speaking, but that description will have to do for now. I also encourage you to read about routines before you proceed with this post.

    Habits, what are they and why do people cling on to them? To be fair to everyone involved, not that most people deserve this, I will admit that it would be somewhat unusual for a human to not have any kind of habitual modality when seeking rapprochement to many things in life, but what most modern call "habits" go far beyond a simple method or modality: here we are truly dealing with a kind of grand illusion or insanity or perhaps faith in the absence of the supra-natural, read "Politics". Indeed, most people have allowed themselves to indulge in a kind of delusion that work in a very rather specific and quantified manner that one or more of these habits will solve their problems, and the best way of engaging in this "habitual living" is to embrace one of these "lifestyles", governed of course by "preferences", and by following this schedule, this routine, this program, this algorithm, really this habit – you can become the next "sensation" because it is very important for modern people to become sensational. Individualism is so rampant these days that people truly believe this, and this is another one of those fairly recent developments, because until fairly recently it was mostly the case that people were forced into a certain habit, usually by circumstance, and of course for many people these habits where not suitable, but since the material order above all values adherence to its principles, these people simply had to "suffer through" and "keep going"; of course, this kind of attitude is a great sign of the deviated and inverted state of affairs I have referred to elsewhere, read "Egalitarianism" and "Hierarchy".

    I should also mention the peculiarity that is dreams or dreaming, because after all what are dreams but the very definition of delusion, of derangement even? Since when did this quite negative word—"negative" here refers not to the negative in the sense of absence, although this could certainly apply since dreams point to the absence of something substantial or tangible, and certainly dreams may not be conceived of as essential, but more on that at another time—come to be considered something so good and even normal? Is it normal to dream? I suppose one may refer to "dreaming" in two ways: either dreaming during sleep or dreaming during the day, but both are certainly not a good or normal thing. A man that belongs to his place within the creation, a man that may rely on his sub-unit, do not dream of better times, he creates better times every day, and no such man would ever allow his nightmares and other illusions, for that matter, to dictate his life. Would the Hyperborean civilization ever consider "dreaming", nothing short of delusional thinking, legitimate or something worthy of taking up any place or space in life? Of course not, and men who exhibited this kind of erratic behavior, while few and far between, were taken for the true fools that they were, and besides in those distant days there were no such thing as "ordinary life", this kind of mental prison that moderns insist on putting themselves inside of, read "Modern Civilization". I will simply assert this: men who dream of some other routine, some other algorithm, some other habit are more often than not men that are incompetent, incompetent in life that is, but their dreams are often under the influence of dark forces, read "Spiritual Warfare", that seek to further disrupt their life, because, again, the fact is this: just because you do not like your proper place in the world, Satan will make sure of this, the world owes you nothing. Of course you have no "right" to pursue your dreams, whatever that means, and besides this thinking is detrimental to your every fiber, to your health, read "Stress!". What I am attempting to explain is this very simple fact: if you are frustrated by your "lifestyle", then you are likely tempted and encouraged, read "Addiction", to dream on about some other way of living, some other habit, as if this would solve all of your problems, and this kind of thinking is easy to be affected by, since materialism lends itself so easily to this delusional "ideation", but in the end that mental prison is no closer to being in the "past tense", so to speak, because habits and dreaming, read "Working Out", will not solve the fact that you are fundamentally misplaced. I should also add that indeed, most people find themselves "misplaced" in the modern world, with the exception of those who are truly Satanic, read about "Politicians".

    So, if habits will prove, which they should have already done, unable to "solve" your problems—not that life is a problem to be solved, although this is a rather common assumption these days—what could? Again, your life is not a "problem" to be solved, and as long as you keep up with this attitude, you will be right back in that mental prison, because this is essentially the definition of a habit, a prison that keeps you in your place, not that you belong in this place to begin with. What you should do to seek to adopt an "alternative lifestyle", I choose to dabble in this vocabulary, that could enable you to retire from the world; this is essentially the only "solution", to your predicament, but then again destruction and fury does serve a sacred purpose: to balance the scales of the celestial order, and to this extend all of these troubles must be understood as something good and righteous – indeed even loving. You will be or become fat; this is the fate of modern man, indeed this is the fate of all modern men. Do not do this to yourself.
