None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A person wakes up. His phone is by his side. He opens Instagram and starts scrolling. He sees various posts, comments, likes of other more successful, more beautiful people and gets out of bed after half an hour of mindless scrolling. He gets up and does his daily chores and goes to a shit job he doesn't like just to pay the rent. He's a non contributing Automaton who mindlessly does a subpar job while being constantly distracted and his boss constantly makes fun of him. Little does he know his boss' daily routine isn't much different.

He goes home ,opens up Tinder and a bunch of Dating apps and his ego is again deflated because he gets not matches. Instead of cleaning his apartment he goes and sits on his computer and opens a porn website and starts jerking off. It feels really good and gives him the only reprieve of his entire day. After nutting he instantly gains post nut clarity that hes a Loser, Out of Shape, with no friends, social skills, girlfriend ,prospects of a better life.

He then goes on X ,and starts scrolling to find bait posts where people argue in the comments. He sees a post titled "Women shouldn't dress like whores if they don't want men to look at them in the gym accompanied by a picture of a scantly clad woman in the gym. He starts arguing in the comments with random women about his beliefs and how the West is being destroyed by a Marxist Social Engineering agenda and how women should submit to men yada yada. A bunch of anonymous twitter accounts back him up and he feels validated and cool that he owned some liberals. He calls them Sluts and Whores and shares some memes etc. which makes him feel good.

Then he opens up his computer and starts playing Games with randos on the Internet. Its now 1.00 p.m and hes sleepy. Its been a long day and goes to bed after jerking off one more time because it helps him cope with existential dread.

This is the reality of millions of young men today. Worthless, incompetent, wasting their potential. Blinded by Vanity. Driven by Madness and Indecision. His mind has been captured by an AI simulation a Chinese Tech Nerd created in Google,Instagram,Youtube ,twitter's marketing and Data Analytics department.

Apparently he is wasting his life because he can't get out of a trance set upon his by tech moguls. A lot of men haven't had sex in the last year. However even though it should be the same for the same amount of women ,its not. The number for women is considerably low. Which means the women are sharing the same men, unknowingly. In today's cosmopolitan Big cities where few really lives with each other and many just spend some days or even hours together. The men that are attractive are having a lot of sex and the subset of Incels are having none.

Sad,lonely,pathetic,wronged by society ,wronged by their parents, wronged by the Nation and life itself. Life is purposeless and fucked. What is the end goal if the most important duty of man which is to continue his own gene pool cannot be done. What is there to strive for ? What is there to fight for in the future ?

They are enslaved by their own minds without even realizing.

He Who Laments his own Powerlessness cannot Change Anything

But there is another guy in the same situation as the other guy. He wakes up and doesn't touch the phone but his body touches the ground as he starts doing pushups. He gets a Home Workout done because he can't afford the gym. While others are scrolling away on the shit job, he's downloading pirated Software tutorials and learning to be a coder. He's doing free online work just to be able to show experience on his portfolio. Constantly educating, constantly improving. Someone else is working two jobs to save money for trade school. Whatver it is ,they are working and are focused. Laser focused. Their minds consatntly on self improvement. When the women notice his confidence and drive they try to get close to him. But he doesn't allow it. Romance can come after achieving financial stability.

This guy is going to achieve everything in life because there is embodying the Solar Fire of Lucifer in him. The willpower. The piercing vision where you constantly move towards something until it becomes manifest.

In todays world and in any world you can make it. The difference between the Losers and the Winners is The Will Of Fire. The burning desire of prosperity. The Universal property of Expansion. The killers out there will trample the obedient under their feet.

Those who deserve greatness work for it , and know that they deserve greatness. And those who work for it get it.

As a Spiritual Satanist if one has not even achieved the basics of life ,of material existence after gaining the immense knowledge from God. They should be ashamed of themselves. Knowledge is wasted without being used. And people who are wasteful gain nothing but agony. The Agony in their minds that they know so much but are unable to do anything.

First Gain control over your own mind and body. Break out of the trance. Think for yourself. First acquire Material Prosperity. Work for it. Strive for it. Get it. And then Romantic Love. And then Property. And then after being established in your home start the more serious spiritual practice that you promised yourself you would do many lifetimes ago. Time is ticking. Tick Tok Tick Tok. As you read this another day has passed. An such an entire life shall pass if not lived consciously and willfully. Our Focus is our first line of defense and so Focus. Focus on important things and ignore the multitude of Technological Vices designed to trap your mind.

Rise Buddy Boy. Time is of the Essence. The Late Term Capitalist system is going to get worse. The only way out is through.

I'm very thankful I met and looked for the JoS without knowing it since I was a child. Even the times I failed and acted like a regular, andrapoda person I felt an underlying shame that reminded me that I could do better under the flames of Lucifer. I'm glad I'm on the right side, that one of being better and sacrificing to get the ultimate reward. Thank you, brother, for reminding us of the pathetic existence of the majority who sleeps, for us to keep going up, and not down.

Good post man, I am focused on stabilizing myself financially, I am studying the stock market, Forex, index, Cryptocurrencies and much more, acquiring land in a small town focused on agro, abundant in groundwater, rivers and much more, after the square of jupiter, I get it, after I make my house and live alone, I will dedicate myself totally to meditation, I can easily meditate effectively for more than 6-8 hours a day without frying my soul or losing focus, I've been doing the JOS meditations since I was 15 years old and today I'm approaching 21, men like us are rare to find, unfortunately there are many beautiful women who prefer a loser, in my country it's like that, but I don't care, I only care about raising my soul to higher levels, I don't care if I'm a half-breed, that doesn't affect me at all, I have infinite capacity to evolve and with the use of mantras and runes I can remove the rottenness from my soul and acquire extreme abilities with meditation.
Now all that's left is to build my house on the land I bought in a rural area, be self-sufficient and meditate more intensely than before.

Yes yes, I intend to have at least 4 children, I'm going to teach them to meditate from an early age, but I'm going to wait a while, here in my country it's compulsory to vaccinate children up to 5 years old against COVID and I'm never going to allow that,
 
I know this post is geared at men but I am starting to see more women in this situation too...
I've seen many posts on this exact thing. But I think that is where Satanism comes into play. Satanism as its core as a spirituality/religion demands you reflect and become better than you were. It suggests you master your mind, body, and soul. This is what gives you the edge over some random who doesn't know anything. It's not a drive that's coming from women's approval or whatever, it's coming from within.
 
without the slightest affection in the words, driving away the emos with dominant water.

this is general yeager, very good.
 
Very good post. Ancient mystery schools would have an "earth stage" as the first stage of initiation for adepts and the reason why they did this is very clear. One needs a fertile ground and foundations to develop themselves. This fertile ground is the beneficial aspects of the earth element which need to be refined.

Self-discipline.
Commitment.
Dedication.
Providing for your survival needs.
Wealth, both fixed and mobile.
Beneficial habits.
Organisation and structure.
Planning.

All these need to be sorted before anyone can achieve anything major in life. Otherwise, their life will always be one moment away from collapsing, being built on pillars of sand.

Beneficial habits open the door to financial stability and freedom. Finances open the door to every other area of self-improvement, increasing your productivity. Accomplishments make you desirable to high-quality people, which are necessary to keep driving you forward (i.e. friendships, better networking, romance/marriage). And when all of these are fulfilled and growing, spiritual achievement becomes much easier.

Earth is the first stage. The comfort of water is really for when the focus for once all the previous 3 elements have been mastered, because it's the having the other elements in balance and harmoniously expressed and refined in your life that allows you to have a comfortable. If any of the other elements is impaired, your life suffers.

With earth impaired, you cannot take care of yourself or others. Cannot even meet basic needs. Cannot even be a good friend or a good lover because you'll always be concerned with survival.

With fire impaired, you won't be able to produce anything in life, because your productivity will be affected and there will be achievement in your life. No motivation to act, no success, no confidence, no enjoyment, no beliefs, or drive, or energy. No life.

With air impaired, you cannot relate to other people in any ways. You cannot communicate with them. Therefore, you'll have no friends and no spouse. No active and healthy membership to any group or organisation, not even family.

If your life is not in order, you cannot expect to have major accomplishments spiritually, because the kundalini will not be able to rise properly, constantly meeting blockages and hang-ups, exacerbating them and bringing more strife to your life.

When I mention elemental stages in self-development, I do not mean other elements will not be involved at all. I just mean that a specific element will be of major focus. Having multiple foci will accomplish none. Just think about what happens if you chase 2 hares...
 
Great motivation, thank you for that :D
The first "true" of the incel vs chad worldview, every previous motivation I found was about a toxic noone talking about "fuck everything, get a harem and you become a chad" kind of shit.

Very True. First is mastery over your own thoughts and actions. Then comes everything else.
