Monotheistic Animism Returns

Animism and Monotheism fit together seamlessly.

I.

I remember when once I was out walking on a bright summer day I was struck by the sheer blueness of blue and the greenness of green. The world, Nature, has a vividity, a vivacity, a vitalistic energy that is familiar yet otherworldly at the same time. The woods of Canada are ancient yet ever-new, as is their Creator God and ours. When I return from my hiking excursions to society, I am always made uncomfortable by the vulgar contrast between the wild purity of Nature and the crass utilitarian landscape of Modernity. What a horrible thing for wastelands of concrete, plastic, metal, and electric lights to be built amidst the primeval wonders of North America. Yes, traditional architecture compliments its surrounding natural environment, whereas Modernity looks like an invasive alien plague hellbent on spoiling it of its wild purity.  

The Races of Man and the particular peoples they are divided into did not just grow out of the ground in their respective territories like mushrooms nor did they fall out of the sky like meteorites. They wandered to their lands from who-knows-where, maybe Mt. Ararat if you follow Biblical account. God subtly guided each tribe to the land He wanted them to fulfill their particular destinies, and implanted in each tribe a desire for a particular way of life that could only be fulfilled in a particular land. When the multitudinous tribes of Man found their respective homelands they knew in their hearts that they had found the right place. I love to ponder this primeval wandering, and I can still dimly remember this time from my past lives. I sense the time is soon coming for another grand wandering of the peoples that will be the source of many new folkish mythologies.

Each land had a special atmosphere that evoked in the particular peoples living in them certain precise artistic feelings. The serene equipoise of Japanese terraced pagodas, for example, emerged from the aesthetically sensitive souls of Japanese people on their isolated Pacific island homes with as much naturality as the cherry blossoms emerged from its soil. Yes, the art and architecture of that land is as much a part of the landscape as the cherry blossoms, as is God’s design. The Eternal Lord had intended for each people to compliment the homelands He had lovingly crafted for them with an artistic and architectural response that fits their expression. The gothic cathedrals of Northern Europe could not have but emerged from the Taciturn Soul of the Germanic Peoples in their dark and foreboding lands. Such harmony between Nature and Architecture is synergy between God and Man: The Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. This is Dharma.

The fact that each eco-region of North America does not prominently display its own unique architectural style that befits the experience and the soul of the particular European peoples that settled there is a severe indictment of the Enlightenment ideas that had infected the minds of the settlers. That alone is a complete refutation of everything Modern. The creative and ambitious European settler was certainly up to the task of creating cities as mesmerizingly elegant in North America as exists in Europe. But the diabolically inspired ideas of utilitarianism, capitalism, egalitarianism, globalism, secularism held him back. It would be better if this vile wasteland of plastic and concrete had never existed, but since it does, let us not hesitate to destroy it utterly when we have the chance - to blot out its memory from the Earth. To heal the soul of Man, nothing less is necessary than the total eradication of modernity. Many of you sense that God Himself is soon sending a holocaust of purgative flames to annihilate this drab plastic Babylon, but I believe it is impious of us to expect Him to do all the work. 

Yes, there is a special life-energy that surrounds each type of environment. When we are in the wilderness we get a dim glimpse of the world as God intended it to be, the Eden that He made for us, but it too is a fallen place. We can’t ever really understand that prelapsarian universe fully because our degenerated minds can’t understand the wholesome glories of God. I remember once I was walking in a big city whilst inebriated with red wine, and it was a cold night. Garbage surrounded all the streets. I saw rats who I believe were once humans (God ensured they reincarnated as rats to better express their rat-like nature.) I heard a train entering its station and the sound it made was like the screech of a woman in agonizing terror. I became increasingly disturbed as I thought about what type of landscape this was, and who would build it, and who would live there, what would happen to you if you adapted to this kind of place. There is a sinister, haunting atmosphere, a bleak deathliness that haunts the urban landscapes of North America now that is actually very easy to romanticize. Yes, in that moment I could understand the appeal of living in such a place. But make no mistake: These places are the Kingdom of Hell on Earth, and most that live there are already like the shades that populate the underworld they are bound to sink into. Only synergy with demons produces strip-malls and parking lots. Hell is an endless burning, stinky, crowded, noisy slum. 

I remember once I lived in Liberal pacific northwest city. I was walking to a bus, and I was struck by the sheer vastness of the empty parking lots I saw, stretching out as far as the eye could see. Why would someone cut down so many trees and destroy so much grass just to make a sterile sea of concrete? This is the work of The Dark Powers, who hate God’s creations and wants to make this world more like their realm so they can feel more at home in it. 

Have you ever been to a sacred place and felt the spiritually tinged air? I have noticed even the most hardened secularist could not help but act somewhat spiritual in such a place. Yes this “spirituality” is not a subjective feeling. People are silent in such a place because it really is holy. That is the natural response for even hardened atheists.  

II.

As discussed previously, Animism is the belief that “inanimate” objects and animals and places and beyond are either alive or have a spirit who watches over them, is present there, or has taken on those very forms themselves, or is participating in them. I call the notion that “inanimate” things are literally alive Hard Animism, and the notion that they are not literally alive but have an individual spirit who rules them or is present in them Soft Animism. It matters not to me if streams and stones and stars are the direct bodies of spiritual beings or if is only that a spirit mysteriously participates in them. Neither option would particularly surprise or bother me. I am not here to settle such intellectual debates. What I want is to acknowledge and ruminate upon the reality that they do have a mysterious type of life that is relevant to all spiritual seekers in this age.

Animism often seems to others to be “Polytheism plus.” If Monotheism is belief in only one God¹, and polytheism belief in several, an animist is one who believes in a universe where everything is a god. This is a qualitatively different approach to religion than what most are accustomed to. A theological system comprised of abundant infinitudes of divinities won’t lend itself to strict categorical systems of theology like you would find in the Catholicism of St. Thomas Aquinas. This kind of theology predominates among hunter-gatherers who live embedded in a complex web of relationships with mysterious forces and animals and entities. 

Mainstream religious scholars, a category of people whom I am deeply suspicious of, tend to relegate Animism as the bottom-rung on a progressive ladder that leads to Vague Moral Therapeutic Deistic Monotheism after passing through polytheism. We have evolved beyond Animism, such folks will say. 

Monotheism of course naturally appeals to philosophers, who tend towards wanting to find a common universal and unifying origin for all the myriad forms in the universe. The Hellenic Philosophers always tended towards Monotheism. In positing that The Form of Good is the origin of all things, Plato is already an implicit Monotheist, and I am not even sure how implicit. Only subtract one O from The Good and you have The God, The Monotheistic God. Aristotle’s unmoved mover is of course God. Hermeticists, an elite pagan philosophical cult whose origins are shrouded in mystery, were certainly Monotheists, though of a decidedly Un-Abrahamic kind. The Vedic Tradition of India arrived at Monotheism already in the era that The Bhagavad-Gita was written, though they differed on the exact personality of The Supreme God, whether it is Vishnu or Shiva for instance, though the most brilliant among those Aryans already figured that Vishnu and Shiva and yet more beings are just masks of The Supreme Being. Another Aryan Tribe, The Iranians, were extremely close to monotheistic tendencies with Zoroastrianism, but I believe dualism was not a part of Zoroastrianism originally and that Zoroastrianism in its pure form is the most explicitly monotheistic of the Non-Abrahamic monotheisms I have discussed so far. The fact that in The Vedic Tradition they believe the gods serve One Supreme Reality, and that dualism is likely not originally an essential component of Zoroastrianism, means that Polytheism is not necessarily the natural religious stance of The Aryan Peoples as most tend to think. I believe the Indo-Aryan and Iranic branches of The Aryan Race preserved amongst themselves a primeval monotheism.

Yes, Monotheism is abstract, and with abstraction comes high culture and literature and science, or so they say. The bias of seeing Monotheism as sophisticated and Animism as primitive is very strong. But there is one shining example of Animism that defies that type of model: Shintoism, the indigenous religion of Japan. This elegant first-world Animism with big polytheistic gods for thunder and the sun living in a cosmos alongside minor gods for hair and every individual field is the correct interpretive framework for all Animisms, I believe. Japan ascended into being one of the most technologically advanced and economically prosperous nations in the world while yet having a living Shinto undercurrent, and challenged the whole Modern World during the second world war under the reign of its Shinto God-Emperor before the nation most emblematic of Modernity nuked them twice. Japan shows that Animism is not a primitive “baby’s first step” type of religion after all.

Though the Japanese people have preserved ancient religious tendencies to a remarkable degree and deserve full credit for this, I must tell you with all boldness that they did not do so perfectly, as must be expected. Even the higher races of the fallen species of Man cannot do anything as sublime as passing on unblemished a divinely inspired religious tradition from one generation to the next across millennia. Please imagine a Shintoism that has a philosophical Supreme Being in it… a Transcendental Lord as mysterious as that posited by the Aristotelians, as personable as that posited by the Hindus, as powerful as that posited by the Abrahmists. Imagine a deity like that existing seamlessly within an Animistic universe, above all the animistic beings, interacting with them all while yet being untouched by them. The sun is far above stone and stream, it touches them and yet is untouched by them… so too is God far above all things yet Near to them while being unsullied by all things… He is Imminent, Transcendental, Transcendentally Imminent, Imminently Transcendental. Imagine a being like this within a religious system like Shinto whose presence is acknowledged, yet not even one iota of attention or reverence is subtracted from the plethora of spirits both big and small who occupy the attention of Shintoists. Imagine within each ritual and prayer dedicated to the multitudinous spirits in Shinto an acknowledgement, perhaps a small one, that The Supreme Being is their master, that these spirits praise Him as their telos and ultimate God. Can you imagine that? When I do, it feels familiar… like I could start practicing it right away if I just let go of all my inhibitions… I begin to recall doctrines as half-remembered dreams the content of which is on the tip of my tongue, but I still can’t quite write it all down yet… yes, this panentheistic animistic monotheism is the religion of the Golden Age from milleniums of milleniums ago. I remember it. 

One day, at the right time per God’s Eternal Providence, it will return in its fullness. Perhaps you too, my dear reader, are meant to be a harbinger of its glorious resurrection.

III.

When you walk by a tree or a stream or a stone, if you have a favourite tree or stream or stone that you are familiar with, why not thank them for being a faithful friend? Loving them will enrich your existence. It’s just the pragmatic thing to do. Thank God for making such companions for you, then subtly the stones and trees and streams will praise their Master and yours and lead you to Him. 

This kind of pragmatic Animism doesn’t mean we really change anything, it just means we awaken to what is already there. We already live in relationship with everything around us. Because our consciousness has been made numb by The Dark Powers, we think think of the trees and grass and rocks we see everyday as being “just there.” but this is a falsity - we are relational beings and we are in relationship with our environment already. I am just inviting you to enrich that relationship. This attitudinal shift is a growth of consciousness. Naturally your human relationships and your relationship with God are of a higher priority - that goes without saying. But the wonderful thing about Love is that it compounds, so that the more you love the more you can love. Loving tree and stone and stream will help you to love God and Neighbour, which is the fulfillment of all the Law and prophets².  

Yes, we already have a relationship with the natural world, and with household objects, with animals, and with our ancestors, even with concepts like love and war. Can I get you to contemplate for even a moment what it would mean for “ideas” like love and war to be alive too? Christian Platonists say Plato’s only mistake, if indeed he even made a mistake, was just not ascribing to The Form of the Good an aliveness and personality… but what about all of the other forms? The Form of Chair and the Form of Cube are living, breathing beings… more alive than you and me.. They are the origin of all other instantiations of those things as is the will of their Master, The Transcendental God. In any case, The Supreme God deserves the ultimate place in our hearts, my dear reader. 

All humans were hunter-gatherers originally, and the web of relationships they existed in never disappeared. We humans changed, but that web never did. It is eagerly anticipating our return. It misses us like we are family, because we are. We must stop neglecting these important relationships… if our souls starve for love and connection and reverence then surely we can be enriched by this. We could always use more Love, not less, in our lives. 

I do not care if I sound like a mad pagan. Christ, Word of God made Flesh, said the very stones themselves will cry out³. We tend to think this is poetic exuberance from The Messiah as He rejoices with the gleeful crowd who will later betray Him and watch with sadistic joy as He is publically humiliated, tortured, killed. But will the very Word of God be caught up in mere poetic exuberance? No, He said those words because stones sing, and as He is unblemished He can still hear their subtle stony song unlike us fallen men. We love to reduce what Christ says to metaphors, but if when He said “this IS my body and blood”⁴ when He was referring to bread and wine I do not know why we should think that He is ever being merely metaphorical at other times. Traditional churches believe that His body/blood/soul/divinity is in the bread and wine, which is a hard saying⁵. So it is also: He said the stones would sing because stones can sing. Christ was an animistic panentheistic monotheist.

When God incarnates, as He does whenever it is His good pleasure according to His eternal predestinated Will which is The Good of all Beings, He does not waste words. After all, He must teach salvific truths so ignorant humans like us can fulfill the purpose of life. If rocks can sing, as He said, should we not love them? Christ talks to the fig tree, and it responds with withering away⁶. How can this be so unless that fig tree is alive and receptive to His words? As He is fully human, would it not be able to hear our words too, since we are fully human? He rebukes the sea and the storm⁷. How can He rebuke them if they are but mere elemental forces? He rebukes them because they are alive. Only living things can be rebuked. If Christ spoke to tree and sea and storm then we must speak to them too, if we are imitators of Christ. Let mainstream Christians think you have lapsed into pagan shamanism, you should not care for the pharisees of our age. Tell them, if you must, that if communing with the natural world is good enough for The Lord Jesus Christ it is good enough for you, just like being meek and persecuted and poor and misunderstood and given to fasting and prayer in solitude was good enough for Him. 

Is this not idolatry? It is not, because we acknowledge that God is the Supreme Being who alone deserves worship. Worship is exulting an entity as the supreme being, our ultimate telos, whom the maximal amount conceivable of honour is due. Only God deserves worship, truly, but we dishonour God when we don’t recognize all of the other categories between us and Him. There are also many spirits who serve Him who deserve veneration, proper acknowledgement of honour. Idolatry came about when God was mostly forgotten, as He was in Shinto Japan, and all that were remembered were the wonderful spiritual beings who dwell in the cosmic hierarchy of being in a place in-between us and God. Abrahamists have now made almost the opposite mistake, and this makes them severely misunderstand God’s will, nature, and plans. 

When the eternal spirit-children of God first incarnated as Men at the beginning of The Satya Yuga, the divine origin of Man and the world he found himself was evidently plain at all times. The purpose of life was not something you had to go on a big existential quest to discover, you knew it as plainly as you knew that two and two make four. God was visible to all people at all times then like a great celestial light. After The Fall of Man at the end of The Satya Yuga, when Man first began to fall under the control of The Dark Powers who hate God, the natural beatific vision that humans had back then was not lost all at once but this happened just a bit at a time. The purpose of life was still a matter of living memory for the generations after The Fall, but over the generations the fallen men failed to pass on the memory of life’s purpose to their children and their knowledge of it became distorted or incomplete. God’s eternal uncreated light got dimmer with each fresh evil mankind committed, until He became hidden altogether from most as He is now. 

The Fallen Men felt acutely the gravity of their loss, and the weight of their crime. The illusion of the loss of God’s presence is a searing pain in our hearts that affects everything we do, my dear reader. Sane men work to undo this illusion and awaken to their eternal relationship with their Lord. But most men are mad, and madness has a kind of logic unto itself. The mad and fallen men born after The Satya Yuga, the Edenic Age, rationalized away this feeling of searing pain caused by the loss of the direct vision of God by soothing themselves with lies about the origin of Man and obfuscating the reality and nature of God. So though the truths of our existence are still imprinted in our hearts, they are buried under lies about the true nature of things about God that we have told ourselves for many lifetimes. I think that no writer, no matter how spiritually enlightened, could ever perfectly put down onto paper the truths that are secretly imprinted in the human heart, and not just because most of those are beyond words. 

The Primeval Humans, who were far exalted in body, mind, and spirit over even the most supreme races of Man today, would strike us as gods if we could ever see them. The Edenic Humanity lived in Paradise and the marvellous creation they lived in was even more perfect than what we ourselves see every day. This green and golden work of God called forth praise for their Creator, and Nature enthusiastically received Man as its king. We represented God to the beasts as Avatars like Christ or Krishna represent God to us. 

The fowl of the air, the fish of the seas, the beasts of the field, and all that creeps and crawls eagerly await the return of their proper king: divinized Man. Those of you who crave to live in harmony with Nature must walk the spiritual path, and even if you are cursed with living in an urban hellhole your whole life, God will ensure that by following Him you will be a harmonious King of Edenic Nature as He had always intended for you to be. By following God we become gods. 

Wishing to be in harmony with Nature is a wholesome and holy desire. It is the foundation of all wholesome and holy desires. It is The Aryan Dharma. 

IV.

The simple and rugged Hunter-Gatherer is adapted to fallen nature. Do not be disappointed if you crave a lifestyle of heroic hunting. I, too, remember what it was like to hunt mammoths with the lads, my dear reader. There is more to the Edenic Nature that was and is to come than bucolic peace. The divinized humanity that will inhabit Earth once it has been restored to its paradisiacal glory will enjoy hunting as a joyous past time: what complete Man wouldn’t enjoy hunting? 

But the hunter-gatherer peoples that existed after The Fall of Man were adapted to a Nature they could never fully be “in harmony” with. Nature was now at war with Man, after all, though that war with Nature made Man strong as God intended for him to be. God had made The Adamic Race to be King of Nature, but since they did not accept God as their King, they could not be Kings themselves, and so Nature became their enemy. Truly, without God, Man is nothing. When we don’t act in accordance with our place in the cosmic hierarchy, we lose our place in the cosmic hierarchy and sink into a place of indignity that is proper for us but what we were not originally meant for. 

In his fallen condition, the splendor of God’s creation, maimed though it was by The Fall, still called forth Man’s veneration, but as his memory of God was getting wonky, he now praised Nature instead of God, and the various spirits that rule Nature instead of God. 

Yes, it came to pass that instead of praising God’s life-giving power at work  in The Sun that he praised the sun, and instead of praising God’s life-giving nourishment at work in the Earth he praised the earth. Sun and Earth, diligent servants of God that they are, kept Man under their care until they were ready to begin to remember God, as they did in varying degrees and in very imperfect ways. But soon our knowledge of God will be perfected if we walk the spiritual path, even in this dark age. 

Just as a Roman Catholic praises Mary and the saints but gives ultimate honour to God alone, so too are we meant to venerate the spirits of nature while reserving God for the ultimate place in our hearts that He is due. The LORD raised up St. Francis who preached to the birds and sang of “sister water” and “brother sun” to show this close relationship Man once had with Nature. 

The proclivity to pay honour to God’s creation is a natural desire of the human heart, but it became corrupt and warped in certain people, and so for some God forbade it altogether. So it was that Moses and other Abrahamists had to preach a strict Monotheism, but St. Francis and Vaishnava Hindus can praise God alongside His servants in Nature. The nuance of being able to recognize both God and the gods, assigning the proper honour due to both is a sign of possessing a higher nature. The lower races lack the IQ level for this distinction and even the sensitivity to really notice the presence of either God or the gods, and since the gods are not really our ultimate telos, it is good for them to just serve God, typically. 

You wouldn’t even be reading this substack at all unless you were a higher type of human, so do not fear to strive to connect to the spirits of nature and honour them. But never forget that God is your proper end, your ultimate spiritual goal, and that He is superior to all other beings who all ultimately serve Him even if they do not know it or like it. 

Christ said that the very stones WILL sing. The universe is silent to all but a few now.The ignorant think how they treat Nature is inconsequential but when they face judgment it will be clear to them that everything is alive. Yes, the trees and streams will testify to their Lord and ours about who corrupted them. No polluted stream will go unavenged, no wastefully felled tree will face the indignity of being cut down by an ignorant fool without that ignorant fool too being cut. Those responsible for making a species of creature that God created go extinct will themselves go spiritually extinct in the deepest pits of Hell and all of those wonderful creatures will be resurrected when The Satya Yuga returns to once again be Man’s friends. Oh how I long to play with the megafauna of old, and enjoy vigorous games of hunting with them! This is a thought that gives me no end of peace, my dear reader. Yes, every flower and beast and every creeping crawling thing will testify to God’s works and to ours. Let us treat these well so they will give a good account of us when it is our judgment day. 

Those who have ignorantly said that the elemental forces are themselves the supreme beings will tremble in fear when they hear every tree, every blade of grass, every droplet of water, and every star praise God, their sovereign LORD and ours. 

We don’t have to wait for when we are dead or on our judgment day to hear God’s voice. He will speak loud and clear on that day. But He speaks softly now too and heavy is the burden of those to whom God speaks directly and harsh is their lot on Judgment Day because they knew the truth so the necessity of doing good was made stronger to them. On that great and terrible day He will speak clearly to you… it will be the clearest voice you have ever heard. On that day all rationalizations will cease, and if we are accustomed to the darkness of ignorance the shockingly bright light of truth will burn us to our core but there will be no escape for us or for anyone else. When God’s voice is made unbearably clear at the end of their days, many will wish for the old days when His voice was obscure, because they cannot handle how terrible and how beautiful and how loving and how full of majesty it is. 

Our personal judgment day is a day of speaking, where what seemed inanimate will speak with an oddly familiar voice. All the time before that day that is to come for us is a time of mysterious silence. We exist in this world but feel that much is missing. Our life should be richer. There is a thick fog that covers and obscures the meaning of everything, no matter how hard we try to see it through it. But on that day all that fog is banished and many will wish for it to return, to no avail! You cannot hide from the truth, dear reader! Spend your days before that time of judgment striving to live in the Truth so that when that day comes you are not caught… unprepared! 

We will be judged on the extent to which we solved the great mysteries. No one will have solved them completely, and only those who live rightly have solved it to any extent at all. We will be judged on what we felt and said and did and thought based on what we discovered. The articles of faith we held and lived by will be scrutinized perfectly by an Examiner who is never wrong because He is Truth. 

Knowing this, I cast my lot before you and say that historically Christianity made a huge mistake by neglecting to honour Nature while yet acknowledging it as subordinate in importance to God, and that The Enemy has exploited this fatal mistake in order to sunder our relationship with Nature and thus with God. With no connection Nature, God’s work, we are pushed ever further under The Dark Prince’s embrace. Christianity and axial age religions generally were one of the ways God intended to take back this world He made, but now the world is more under the control of The Dark Powers than ever. Earth resembles hell more day by day. 

Christian peoples, even if only nomitavely Christian, are inordinately responsible for the industrial revolution and for miscegenation which have turned this Earth into a province of The Kingdom of Hell. We’ve concretized the grass, poisoned the water with microplastics, blackened the skies with chemtrails, and drove species lovingly made by God’s hands into extinction. Many pure lineages of higher races have perished in the retarding furnace of miscegenation. On The Day of Judgment many “Christians” will go to Hell because they promoted industrialization and miscegenation.

Practicing Animistic Monotheism will help you to avoid being accused by the vegetation and the beasts and the elemental forces and the stars on Judgment Day. Live in harmony with Nature as best you can and pay homage to them. This is a quintessential element of The Divine Life, The Life of Dharma.

We can heal the universe by loving it. The ocean and forests appreciate your lovingkindness. They love it when they make you think of God, and they praise Him in unison with you when you praise Him for making them. The flower and the waterfall will remember that their beauty reminded you of His Beauty.

We honour something by treating it Justly, and to treat something justly means to treat it in the proper way, and the gods of nature have their proper place beneath God, so those who insist that the gods of nature are the very highest beings actually dishonour and do injustice and warp Nature. But nature is treated unjustly and coldly and with contempt by nearly all of the Abrahamists, and that too is a grave injustice. Mankind until now is swinging from Paganism to Abrahamism which is going from one extreme to the next, as is expected of people who are enslaved to their passions. But we can rise above all of this madness. We don’t need to wait for The Satya Yuga to return to begin at least partially to live how God wanted. Panentheist Animistic Monotheism is the healthy middle point. 

God is pleased when we Love his Creation justly and use it to honour Him. 

May God and the gods bless you! Aum / Amen.

1. I don’t think that’s what Monotheism really is, but that is the popular idea of it. The real essence of monotheism is the idea that there is a Supreme Reality who is an Eternal person, and exulting of that deity as The Supreme Reality, as Being itself, above all others, a God of Gods. A monotheistic deity is different from a polytheistic deity qualitatively and not just quantitatively.
