Reactionary Metaphysics V - The Ethnic Oversoul

One of the assumptions that we have about our souls is that they are unique and totally individualized. There is no metaphysical explanation for race provided to us by Christianity. Any differences between a Frenchman and a Chinese person, for example, are the result of a kind of optical illusion created by Satan. Once the Chinese person is baptized and takes Holy Communion, he is the same as the French man. Of course, in the past, the Church was able to admit that biological differences between the two groups existed, but they insisted that this difference was only material and had no metaphysical implications. When pushed to explain why, then, if we were all the same on a soul level, we would look and act so differently on a material level, the only explanation proffered by the Church came in the form of crosses, bonfires and dungeons, naturally.

But the official Church explanation (or lack thereof) seems strange to me and anyone else who has taken the axiom “as above, so below and as below, so above” to heart. After all, if we were all made of the same soul stuff, all of us created by Yahweh and descendants of Adam, why not just have that reflected materially in having us all be of one race? Frankly, the Church’s denial of soul differences on a racial level smacks of imperialist, expansionary, political ambition and not the result of a reasoned metaphysical examination of the phenomenon.

Judaism, in stark contrast, is quite explicit about the role that race plays in their metaphysical system. Yahweh is the deity of the Jews and the Jews are simultaneously his thralls and also the source of his power. No other nations of the world are loved by Yahweh - they must all become the slaves of the Jews and Yahweh, by extension. This attitude is reflected in the Noahide Laws, which are basically the terms of surrender for the soon-to-be conquered nations of the world whereby the dhimmi have to accept Yahweh and the Jews’ superior position in relation to his affection and favor. Furthermore, if one reads the Torah, one gets the impression that Yahweh created the Jews, but if one reads the subsequent Jewish mystical texts like the Zohar, it appears that some Jews believe that they created Yahweh. A bit of a chicken or an egg dilemma, I know.

Perhaps we need a third opinion.

All ancient peoples believed that they were the descendants of a particular God. So, just as the Jews were the children of Yahweh/Set/the Demiurge the Greeks considered themselves the sons of Zeus and the northmen considered themselves the sons of Odin. So, in other words, the race-based soul idea used to be widely accepted in the ancient world. Peoples and nations were considered to be different on a metaphysical level, not just on a readily observable material level based on their physical appearances and the varied cultures that they produced. The Greeks went further still and believed that exceptional souls deified by death became demons/daimons i.e., guiding spirits that looked after and helped their descendants. The Romans called them Lares, Manes, or Genii. This is the etymology of the word “genius” - it was a tutelary guardian spirit that helped and inspired a person and, was also ethnically connected to the living person. If these ancestral spirits were neglected, they turned feral, as the belief went, and began to plague their descendants with psychological illnesses and calamity. At that point, they were referred to as larvae. Many prominent Greek philosophers claimed that they were inspired by their inner daimon/demon when creating their philosophical works. The Church, of course, decided to label all of this black magic and formally stamped it out, but belief in guardian ang-Els sent by Elohim quickly filled in as an approximate substitute.

But, in Slavland, there is still a peasant tradition of going to the graves of one’s family and offering them drinks and sweets and talking to the gravestone as if the family member was there. I’ve personally gone to several of my ancestor’s graves in Belarus and Ukraine with my family. Ancestor worship is the core of Chinese spirituality to this day. All this is to say that the idea of deities and spirits being connected ethnically to a people only sounds weird at first, really. Upon further examination, we find it to be the norm everywhere.

But where do we stand in relation to this theory of ethnic soul now? Surely, someone has given the idea some thought in the interim metaphysical dark ages since the ancients?

Enter Rupert Sheldrake and his work on the theory of morphic fields and morphic resonance. The idea of morphic fields actually made its first appearance in Russia more than a century ago as an explanation for why living things take on the physical shape that they do. Even now, in the era of DNA-mapping, the problem of morphology in biology has not been solved. The theory of morphic fields basically postulates that there is an intangible informational blueprint that is used to form the shape of various limbs, organs and whole organisms, and that morphology (physical form) is not explainable by protein-coding (DNA). It’s considered extremely controversial and a heresy in academia.

Now, Sheldrake went a step further and postulated that species share a noetic informational cloud server that all members of the species had the potential to access. This cloud server basically has a PDF and an EXE file which enables plants to run a program that governs the process of sprouting, growing leaves and so on through the various morphological forms that the plant will assume throughout its life. Sheldrake went on to run a series of tests where a group of mice in the United States was exposed to a certain poison and learned to avoid it. Then, as if by magic, a group of similar mice in the UK who had been in isolation learned to avoid the poison despite never having been exposed to it or the group of mice in the US. This, in Sheldrake’s mind seemed to confirm the possibility not only of a shared informational bank, but a shared informational bank that was actually constantly being updated with the shared experiences of members of the same species.

Naturally, he was summarily dismissed by academics as a quack and his experiments castigated as a form of neo-Lysenkoism. His sin was quite clear: he had run afoul of the materialist and neo-Darwinian dogma of the academic world.

But let’s put Sheldrake aside for now and consider another interesting experiment that was run in the 20th century on groups of German patients suffering from clinical depression. A group of psychiatrists came up with a treatment that came to be known as Constellation Therapy and which was based on Zulu mystical ancestor worship practices. The practice, in a nutshell, is about reconnecting people to their ancestors. Many Germans were in denial about members of their family having being Nazis and felt a deep sense of shame about their grand-pappy forcing Jews to be eaten by electric bears and masturbated to death by Himmler’s patented “rub and tug” machines during WWII. This led to feelings of depression that were only alleviated when they were coaxed into acknowledging the existence of their deceased family members and coming to terms with them and their past. The developers of Constellation Therapy have an impressive track record of treating what they call “inherited intergenerational trauma”, which they claim is passed along through the generations, somehow. Once again, we know for a fact that such things are impossible because the SCIENCE! tells us that genes cannot pass down information gathered during a person’s life and, again, according to their dogma, only genes get passed down from generation to generation. To suggest that something can be passed along from one generation other than random mutations smacks of the Lemarckian heresy or, again, neo-Lysenkoism. But, perhaps, just perhaps, the idea that information and experience is indeed somehow passed down over the generations isn’t as outlandish as it seems at first glance.

After all, aren’t we told that the blacks have inherited “generational trauma” from being slaves for so long by esteemed medical experts?

The Jews claim that the same phenomenon is occurring to them because Hitler forced them to do manual labor a century ago. They run non-stop studies on this to try to keep the guilt-racket going:

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this also a form of Lemarckianism or Lysenkoism i.e., a SCIENCE! heresy? And yet, somehow, no one seems to have noticed and condemned these two ethnic groups for making such ridiculous anti-SCIENCE! claims. No, the hoary heads of our modern academic titans nod along solemnly and dare anyone to challenge the ethnic grievance agenda of these two groups. It seems to me that only one group of people is not allowed to claim any sort of connection with their ancestors. Only one group of people gets condemned for dabbling in pseudoscience for even suggesting that such a thing could be possible. Hmm.

Anyways, Rupert Sheldrake eventually began attending Anglican church services despite his New Age leanings. His reasoning was that he would be in closer resonance with his ancestors if started attending the same church services that generations of his ancestors had. In other words, he thought it would bring him into better alignment with the Anglo-Saxon cloud server in the heavens. When I heard about this, I reached out to Rupert Sheldrake and asked him if his theories implied that certain races or ethnic groups would have a connection between members that spanned generations, a shared ethnic Oversoul perhaps. You’re just going to have to take my word on this, but he confirmed that this would, indeed, follow logically. But, for obvious reasons, that last logical step would have to remain implied and not openly stated because of the current political climate.

Now, there is one last person of note worth bringing up in our discussion before we bring it all together. Carl Jung, the famous mystic psychologist claimed that he had discovered a collective unconsciousness in the course of his examination of the subconscious mind. His descriptions of what he saw sound quite a bit like he is describing a cloud server with shared information uploaded and compressed like a ZIP file through the use of evocative symbols that reflected the shared experiences of generation upon generation of descendants of an ethnic group.

Carl Jung claimed that to be born without connection to this reservoir of shared experiences would be akin to being born deaf, mute and blind. He also spoke about a “collective shadow” that could be passed on over the generations. It sounds a lot like the concept of “inherited trauma” that we discussed before. The sins of the grandfathers truly are born by the sons, it seems. Carl Jung’s other ideas are just as “out there” and yet they are taken seriously in the field of psychiatry. Why shouldn’t we consider his theory of a shared collective unconscious as well?

In summation, all of the examples that I have brought up in this essay from the ancient world and from more contemporary mad men seem to hint at the idea that we do indeed share a metaphysical connection with our descendants. That a Greek and a Jew and a Scythian are NOT the same on the soul level. That belief in a shared familial, ethnic or even racial soul was commonplace for much of human history, and across various cultures. Only our people reject it out of hand nowadays either for religious reasons or because of misplaced faith in SCIENCE! i.e., for religious reasons as I’ve stated previously. Now, you don’t have to believe in any of this stuff if you don’t want to. But humor me and run a quick experiment before you dismiss the idea out of hand.

Compare the lamentable state that our people find themselves in and decide for yourself whether we are better off for rejecting the metaphysical beliefs of our ancestors and metaphysical belief in our ancestors … or not.

And, frankly, does it really even matter whether Genii or Daimons or Zeus exist or not?

Well, it’s hard to prove one way or another, isn’t it? But we can simply compare the results of the best practice of honoring one’s ancestors, to the practice of spitting on their graves, can’t we? All I’m saying is that a people that carves out one day in a year to have a picnic by their grand-pappy’s gravestone probably has a better chance of making it through the ethnic meat-grinder of the 21st century in one piece.
