              HERETICAL TEACHING OF THE "LEFT-HAND PATH"



    R.Parker. Exiet, England.



    One of the fundamental principles of "PLR" in particular and
Satanism in general is a desire for knowledge (in the sense
gaining understanding and gaining experience).  This principle
is expressed in a special attitude towards life, which is often clearly
manifests itself in a person’s personality. This includes willingness to accept
a challenge, a desire to explore or create, but above all -
craving for superiority. A follower of "PLR" rarely calms down
achieved;  he is a born rebel with instinct
aversion to generally accepted authorities. He feels the need
to acquire knowledge through personal experience rather than through acceptance
any dogma. He wants to be a leader, not a follower.

    However, our society, instead of shaping
strong, proud and bright personalities, creates a herd of conformists;
and, what’s most terrible, people join this herd not so much because
coercion, as much as following any ideas. It's the ideas that keep
in slavery most of humanity - ideas turned into
dogma andforming the basis of the institutions of power and the state.
The education system in our society is based on one or another
ideas that are instilled in a person from a very young age.

    It will not surprise our readers that most of these ideas
disgusting for the real personality and conscious
evolutionary path, come from the philosophy of the Nazarene. Almost
Not the most dangerous of these ideas is the concept of equality. The other one is
what is incorrectly called "democracy" and even more incorrectly -
"freedom".  All these are just abstractions, idealized forms,
which cannot be achieved otherwise than purely
on an individual basis.  And yet humanity, generation after
generation, continues to believe in them and tries to achieve these
goals at the state and supranational levels.

    Consider, for example, “democracy.” This concept is defined
in different ways, but in essence it comes down to “freedom of elections” and
establishing a government of elected officials who decide
political issues.  Any person capable of real
thinking, will easily understand what he really is
represents a “democracy” in which promises
are very rarely restrained, and “minority interests” are in fact
dominate the “interests of the majority”.  Theorists find
the origins of democracy in Greece; but anyone who has really studiedhistory of the society of the Greek states, understands that the real
"democracy" was possible only in small city-states,
consisting of people related by blood. At that
at the time these lines are written, hundreds of thousands of Americans
are going to wage war in the Middle East in order to create there
more "democratic" state and put an end to the fact that
considered "tyranny".  To what extent does this definition correspond
in reality, in principle, it does not matter (as well as the fact that
the US government may actually only be aiming for
Middle Eastern oil). The important thing is that the "ideas" justifying this
"crusade" resonate with millions of people who are ready
fight and die for them. The human herd to such an extent
hypnotized by these ideas and demagoguery that even in
a joke cannot be called free.  It cannot understand that
even in their own country, the USA, these ideals are by no means
translated into reality. Their government condemns the trampling
"human rights", while ignoring the fact that in the most
In America, “human rights” are violated every day and every minute;
it spends huge amounts of money on wars abroad, being not in
forces to maintain peace on the streets of their own cities... The pursuit of
ideals reduce the mind and consciousness of a person to the level of a herd.
It can be summarized thatthe dominance of the State and its dogma
leads to complete disregard for the personality of the individual
person.



    POSITION "PLR".



    "PLR" has always opposed abstract ideas and
collectivist attitudes.  He always strived to provide
people the opportunity to create on the basis of direct personal
experience a truly original way of life and way of thinking.
Of course, this path was and remains difficult, full of dangers and
obstacles.  But the very existence of this danger guarantees
that adherents of the herd instinct will perish, and the strong and
the gifted will survive and succeed. Lifestyle offered
"PLR", increases the supply of vitality in a person, forms
true insight, which over time degenerates into
wisdom. This is how evolution happens.

    What would have happened if no one had taken the path of this evolution?
a handful of individuals scattered across different corners of the globe,
and large masses? In this case, thanks to the insights of creative
individuals in different countries, humanity would be embraced by a universal
thirst for knowledge and development.  In other words, an increase in the number
"Promethean" individuals endowed with creative powers and
energy, would be expressed in the formation of entire generations
"supermen" striving for the farthest limits of evolutionaryopportunities.  But so far we are only seeing a trend towards everything
greater conformism, to more and more submissive agreement with
anti-life and anti-nature ideas.  We see triumph
weak, cowardly, degenerate people.

    Even "PLR" itself and Satanism turned out to be infected with herd
disease of this slave psychology, inclined to rather agree
with a stereotype, rather than strive for new experience;  this
softness fostered by a society for which exception
from the rule - already a disaster; this desire to create new
dogma and deify good-for-nothing people. Satanism and
"PLR" strive for direct, personal experience, for
exceptions to the rule, to extract knowledge from this experience,
even at the cost of death on his dangerous path.  For them
it is impossible to agree with other groups, dogmas, ideas and
systems.  They are filled only with the proud, desperate and powerful
striving to comprehend the essence of Being, and this striving can
to be only individual and not collective. "PLR" only
offers opportunities - some guidance along the way; if
Yesterday's path turns out to be ineffective or insufficient
give it up, destroy it, but then create something new,
capable of making a person’s life brighter and serving
evolution. Nothing is sacred.

    These days sometimesbelieve that within "PLR" and Satanism
there is a certain governing body, some “Masters”. Nothing
there is no such thing! For a true Satanist will not obey even
to Satan himself!  Of course, the herd needs such “Owners”, and this
naturally;  we can only wish good luck to such “Owners” in
their personal evolution.  But you shouldn't accept the lifestyle
outstanding personalities for the “norm” or “model”;  someone
must necessarily oppose them and their path. Someone
must fulfill the internal task of "PLR" - achieving true
insights into the essence of Being and the realization of the divine
potential contained in every person.

    The question is, who are you - a slave or a Master?
