Kagalakan ni Satanas - Joy of Satan Philippines

Mabuhay at maligayang pagdating sa ating forum na nakatuon sa pagtuklas at pagsasabuhay ng Espirituwal na Satanismo. Ito ang ating pook-sambahan para sa mga nagnanais pang palalimin ang kanilang kaugnayan kay Satanas, upang lubos na maunawaan ang katotohanan ng Espirituwual na Satanismo, at makilahok sa mga diskusyon patungkol sa Satanikong Kulam, Mahika, at personal na paglago sa loob ng ating komunidad.

Mga Alituntunin na Pinapairal sa Ating Forum:

1. Tayo ay nagkakaisa sa pagbibigay-pugay kay Satanas bilang Lumikha ng Sangkatauhan. Kinikilala natin si Satanas at ang Kanyang mga Demonyo bilang tunay at buhay na mga nilalang. 2. Ang espasyong ito ay nakalaan para sa masigasig at magalang na talakayan hinggil sa mga prinsipyong bumabalot at mga gawain na bumubuo sa Espirituwal na Satanismo. 3. Anumang uri ng kawalang-galang o negatibong komento laban kay Satanas o sa Kanyang mga Demonyo ay hindi pinapayagan at magreresulta sa agarang pagtanggal mula sa forum. 4. Ang buong diwa ng ating talakayan ay nakatuon lamang sa Espirituwal na Satanismo. Ipinapakiusap na huwag magbahagi ng mga paniniwalang hindi umaayon sa ating paniniwala. 5. Mahigpit tayong sumusunod sa mga umiiral na batas. Hindi natin kinukunsinti ang mga usapin patungkol sa mga ilegal na aktibidad o sakripisyo; agad na tatanggalin ang ganitong mga post at ang nagbahagi nito. 6. Hindi tinatanggap ang mga sumusuporta o may simpatiya sa mga kaaway ni Satanas o sa mga ideolohiyang salungat sa ating mga paniniwala katulad ng Judaismo, Kristiyanismo, at Islam. 7. Ang pag-endorso sa mga indibidwal o samahan na lumalaban sa Joy of Satan ay mahigpit na ipinagbabawal. Layon nating magtayo ng isang suportadong kapaligiran, malaya mula sa paninira at pagtutunggali. 8. Mahigpit na ipinagbabawal ang paggamit ng personal na impormasyon (tulad ng tunay na pangalan o mga larawan) sa iyong account. Ang pribasiya ng bawat isa ay mahalaga, at dapat itong pangalagaan. 9. Huwag magdala ng mga panlabas na alitan sa espasyong ito, at huwag banggitin ang mga grupo o site na laban sa Joy of Satan. 10. Ang bawat miyembro ay may pananagutan sa kanilang mga ipinapaskil. Hindi responsibilidad ng forum, mga moderator, o sinumang iba pa ang mga post ng bawat indibidwal.

Tayo'y magkaisa upang matuklasan at mapalago ang ating espiritwal na gawain, magtulungan upang magkaroon ng mas malalim na pag-unawa at pagkakaisa sa loob ng komunidad sa pamamagitan ng mga aral ng Espirituwal na Satanismo.

This group is for White Satanists. It is Satan's intention that the races separate and evolve on their own. The purpose of this group is to educate, and enlighten our Aryan People who are direct descendants of the Nordic Gods. The Jewish communist world order, like their bible and nazarene, work to enforce race-mixing to destroy all racial and cultural identity, history and individuality so the Jews can take over the world with the goal of making slaves of all Gentiles. "We will have to deal with Christianity in a tougher way than hitherto. We must settle accounts with this Christianity, this greatest of plagues that could have happened to us in our history, which has weakened us in every conflict. If our generation does not do it, then I believe it would drag on for a long time. We must overcome it within ourselves." -- Reichsführer Heinrich Himmler; Speech to top leaders of the SS, June 9, 1942 Berlin The link for this group is http://www.666blacksun.com/

Joy of Satan for Animal Care
Pet Care. Discussion of topics in relation to animals. Animal care information exchange/support. Support for Animal Rights. Lilith is the Patron Goddess for this group. She asked that this group be opened. Lilith loves animals and is very strong in support for ethical treatment of animals and for animal rights. All of our Gods love animals, and many have chosen certain animals as their symbol to represent them, such as Satan, the peacock, the serpent; Lilith, the owl; Horus, the falcon; Anubis, the jackal and dogs. Animals are sacred in Satanism. This group is for Joy of Satan members who have pets, and who care for animals. Satanism is living in harmony with nature and having respect for other creatures that inhabit this planet, along with respect and care for the environment. This is a support group for assisting with knowledge in regards to animal nutrition, proper care and for animal rights.

El valor de los amigos​

Escrito por Yeye95

Los verdaderos amigos son tesoros ocultos. Se llaman asi porque aparecen en la medida que avancemos, que nos desprogramemos y nos limpiemos. Estos tiene un valor incalculable.

Cuando contamos con amigos que nos incentiven a crecer y fuera de eso nos otorguen conocimiento y experiencias, el camino se hace mucho más liviano y divertido. No digo que este camino sea pesado ni nada por el estilo, es simplemente que cuando tienes amigos a tu alrededor, pareciera que to va más rápido de lo normal.

Somos sociables por naturaleza, algunos querrán tener más amigos que otros, pero de alguna forma vamos a querer personas a nuestro lado.

Aquellos que estén en este camino y no considere aún la importancia de un entorno social de calidad, no te preocupes, esto viene con el tiempo. Date tiempo para limpiarte, desprogramarte y tener una consciencia más alta, te darás cuenta del valor de esto.

Es importante recalcar, que no todos se acercan con buenas intenciones, ni todos se le deben llamar amigos, de hecho hasta en relaciones sociales uno debe aplicar el razonamiento y la comprensión espiritual. Por eso yo considero a los amigos de calidad, ocultos, porque aparecen en la medida que crecemos y de la nada.

Los amigos terrenales como los Dioses y demonios, son un gran propulsor para este camino, muchas veces tus amigos te darán ese impulso extra que necesitas, incluso te ayudarán con temas de disciplina y como mejorar un poco más.

Algunos de nosotros hemos tenido durante mucho tiempo un concepto erróneo de la amistad y eso ha afectado toda nuestra visión en cuanto a este tema. He tenido "amigos" que me dejan hablar por meses y años y de repente aparecen de la nada pidiendo favores. Una verdadera amistad no es ese tipo de gente que no te habla y de repente aparece sin cultivar nada , por lo que merezca verdaderamente mi valor de amistad.

No hay reciprocidad por ningún lado, no se esfuerzan y ni siquiera nos aportan nada. Todo en la vida hay que cultivarlo, regarlo, sembrarlo y todo este proceso, como una plantita... Te tomas el tiempo para que crezca y cuando menos piense ya es enorme.

Debemos tener en cuenta que la amistad y el amor van de la mano, junto con otros principios u valores como el respeto, la confianza, la armonía, etc. Todos estos deben ser cultivados, entre más fuerte sea un lazo saludable, estos sentimientos, principios u emociones serán más latentes y altos. Todo lo anterior se verá reflejado en nuestras acciones.

La amistad es la buena voluntad de dos personas que se esfuerzan por hacer florecer un vinculo real y sano.

Una relación de pareja como la amistad son importantes en esta vida, claro, tienen sus diferencias, pero ambos están prácticamente en el mismo lugar.

Aquí no te estoy diciendo que debes tener muchos amigos, prioriza la calidad antes que la cantidad. Puedes tener un solo amigo, pero estoy segura que ese amigo te aporta más que 10 juntos.

Una amistad se conforma de: Lealtad, constancia, amor, perseverancia, crecimiento, conocimiento etc. No se trata solo de pasar un dia y salir, y al llegar a casa ese momento fugaz de amistad, pues termino.

Tengo dos grandes amigos, cuento con la fortuna de que son SS, pero esos 2 enormes amigos han demostrado el significado de la amistad con sus hechos. Los tres hemos sido muy constantes en nuestra relación.

Nos alegramos mutuamente de los logros, compartimos experiencias y conocimiento, hemos hecho que nuestro camino sea más divertido y ameno.

En los momentos difíciles, ellos han estado al igual que yo con ellos.

No te apures si quizá ahora no vibras con cierta gente o estés pasando por un momento solitario, esto eventualmente pasará, apóyate en los Dioses y sigue.

En el camino encontrarás gente de calidad con la que puedas apoyarte y caminar de una manera creciente, amena y muy divertidisima.

Shoulder Stand (Sarvangasana)
shoulder-stand.png
Illustration by @Heather (click to enlarge)

This asana is called "the mother of all asanas", as it nurtures and brings harmony to the body.

While this asana may look challenging especially to beginners, it is actually quite easy. And once you have the correct alignment, the body feels light and effortless when in this pose. This is perhaps the first asana that I truly mastered to the full extent of the pose (without modifications), and I highly recommend my fellow SS to learn it as well. It also helps to tone the core and legs.

Instructional video, against the wall (the blanket is optional):

Instructional video, no wall, alternate method:

In the correct position, the chest should not be deflated at all. The top of the chest should connect fully with the chin (do not try to bring the chin to the chest; instead, lift the chest to the chin). You should not feel any strain on your neck, your weight will be fully on your shoulders, with your triceps and elbows helping to balance. With experience, you will feel like you can take a nap in this pose, and easily remain in it for an extended length of time. It should also be easy enough to talk and swallow while in this pose, no strain on the throat at all.

Make sure your elbows are shoulder distance apart, and not splayed out further. The way to ensure this is to have them by your waist touching your torso when your body is still on the ground, and do not move them out as you life your torso up.

Benefits: This inverted asana helps with headaches, colds, throat and nasal problems, short temper, irritation, insomnia, stomach pains, constipation, menstrual issues (it is not recommended to do while menstruating, however), low vitality, and much more. It is claimed to bring back vitality after illness, especially if done twice a day and held for 5 minutes, even longer if possible.
