Yes, I believe in God.
I believe that God is in everything.
And in regards to my religion, if anyone asks, I would say I am a perennialist.
I believe there are many different ways to find God.
I believe there are many different legitimate paths to God.
So those are the short answers right there.
Now, a disclaimer before I begin to elaborate.
I'm not a priest, I'm not of the priest archetype or priest caste.
I am merely a humble, aspiring, enlightened despot.
I'm merely a humble philosopher prince.
So there are those who are much better suited to talk about these issues.
But since I get a question quite often, and since I know it's a topic of interest to many, I thought to give my take on it.
But I have been hesitant to respond to this because I ultimately believe that your own religion should be something personal and I don't want anyone to wait for my answer to start their own quest to find God.
Now I'm not trying to be humble here.
I want you to listen to me always.
I always want you to do as I advise, as I recommend.
So if I say that you should train hard, read hard and sleep well, you should definitely do it.
So every basically every video I make, you should listen and you should take to heart the advice that I present.
Same thing with Dauntless.
I wanted to read it, I wanted to incorporate the practical advice.
But when it comes to religion, I can't say to you which path you can take.
It's up to you.
Dalai Lama says that Buddhism is the best way for him to find God.
For me, I'm still searching, I'm on the path and I want to explore as many different religious traditions as possible.
Hence, I call myself a perennialist.
And now you might say, oh, can't you say that you are a pagan or a Christian or something like that?
And I can't say that because that wouldn't be the most accurate response possible.
I always want to be as clear and honest as possible.
So I'm giving you the honest response right here when I say that I am then a perennialist and I acknowledge that there are many good and glorious ways to find God.
What I can say, however, is that if someone asks, are there many gods or are there only one God?
Again, take this with a pinch of salt.
Again, I'm not a priest, in my humble opinion at least.
And of course, I derive inspiration from the Neoplatonic teaching of the one or the good.
So I believe that there is one God that is in everything and that God is beyond comprehension for humans.
I am certainly comfortable saying that God is beyond my comprehension.
But if we're talking about several gods, I have a good example which I used in my latest podcast.
So we can take the sacred Baltic Sea, which I suppose many of you know and love.
I certainly know and love it.
It is connected to the Atlantic.
So one could say it's the same water in the Baltic and the Atlantic but they are still distinct bodies of water.
They're still two different c if you will but at the same time they are one.
And if we're talking about one god or many gods I would say that the many gods are part of the one God.
And another good example which I also used in my latest podcast is the different forms God can take.
And I can take a rather mundane example here.
Take milk and whey.
Now whey is of course milk but in a different form.
So they come from the same source, The one, the one source of milk, of dairy.
So when you mix a protein shake, so milk and whey, you mix two ingredients which come from the same source and then they become one again.
Something else is, of course snow ice rain, water, same thing, different forms.
So that's something I find, at least in my humble opinion, quite useful to think in terms of the, the nature of the divine.
It can take many different forms and if you read my book review of the Agony And The Ecstasy, I included a quote which illustrates quite well the when, when Hindus are being called idol worshippers and they say that Krishna or God, he can take many different forms.
So he is in the materials of the idols as well.
You can check it out.
I will link it below that article.
Quite insightful, the book itself.
Now moving on to demigods, angels and the primordial beast even as well.
When I say the primordial beast, I have tried to explain this concept before in a video.
I feel more comfortable explaining it now.
But it's simply a certain energy of God taking a certain form, and that particular energy.
It imbues you as a man hopefully, with a sense of primordial energy.
I can't explain it better than to just refer to it as the primordial beast.
Now, we can say that the primordial beast is a well, a god, but it's actually an energy of the one god.
Same thing.
If we're talking about gods of war, certain men, sometimes I suppose many of you have felt it at some stage you feel an urge to fight or whatever.
Yeah, that can be the warrior energy of God, in the form of a war god such as Tur or Mars, or Ares or or Ares or someone like that.
He takes that form and imbues you with that energy, and then you have different other gods that can imbue you in a similar manner, so you can view it as God taking a certain shape, and then he blesses you in that shape and you feel different, different ways.
Now, if you want to live a lifestyle which enables the primordial beast to imbue your spirit, then yeah simply, simply live the lifestyle which I recommend.
So, train hard, eat clean, sleep well, absolutely no pornography, think in heroic terms, act in heroic terms and yeah, you will build your, your inner body your, your inner temple.
You will be able to attract the spirit of the primordial beast and it's an absolutely great sensation when you feel that when you start feeling like a force of nature.
Now, of course, many people they talk about the love of God.
This is something similar, but that love it takes something.
It's a different sort of energy, but that's definitely something I recommend you to try to find because it is a nice feeling.
I'm not saying that I found the perfect love of God yet myself, but it's something worth exper.
It's something worth going on a spiritual quest for.
At least now, the discussion on demigods and angels, it will have to wait till the, I suppose, the next podcast episode or a separate video I'll see.
But long story short, in my view, at least, a demigod would be someone who is a human that is additionally filled with the energy of God.
So the, the energy, if God is in everything, a demigod is a person that has extra much of God in him or, if it's, a demigod, is in her now.
Lastly, as I also mentioned in the latest podcast episode, in regard to the well, so-called conflict between Christians and Pagans always online, of course, a very escapist, very silly conflicts.
I don't even want to call it a conflict but yeah, something of that sort.
Now, this is not something you will take any heat for, you will not take any heat for going all out criticizing Paganism or criticizing Christianity.
You will take heat when you talk about bioculture and civilization and stuff like that.
So if you ask, what team am I on?
Because I know in these online dramas, online conflicts, it's not so much about pushing a good message, it's about scoring goals against the other team, like it's some sort of sports ball game.
As I said, very silly, very inglorious, but anyway, what you will take heat for is Promoting your own bioculture, if you're white, that is.
Now, the team I am on is Team Mother Europe.
It's the same team that I've always been on, and that is what you also take heat for.
So, if you're still engaged in this so-called conflict, it's not something I want any part of.
So, anyway, I hope that responded to the question at hand.
And in terms of culture, you know, if I wear a hammer of Thor, it's primarily a symbol of bioculture.
Then, also, of course, if Thor, the Thunder God, is a part of the Greater God, it's a certain energy quite similar to the primordial beast, I might add, but that will be a topic for another video, or podcast, or article.
Then, of course, if I wear a cross, the Swedish flag has a cross on it, it's not something I have anything against, so I don't mind, even though I'm not a Christian, I don't have anything against wearing a cross or you know, proudly hoisting the Swedish colours which contain a cross.
It's still our symbol and a beautiful symbol at that.
Now, I have rambled on for long enough.
Again, disclaimer: I'm not of the priest archetype, so there are those who are better at explaining these matters.
But that was my take at least.
I hope you enjoyed the video, and thank you for watching.
