Devotion

 


Hanuman praying to Shiva on Mahashivaratri? 

Mahashivaratri

 


Several sources (AI?) informed me that Mahashivaratri starts on Tuesday at 15:30 or something to that effect. Nah, it´s now. The night between Sunday 15 February and Monday 16 February. Note, however, that the dark moon isn´t until Tuesday February 17! 

Be that as it may, here is a picture of Shiva dancing the tandava in a primordial Nordic landscape...

Between a rock and a hard place

 


Humans are such interesting creatures. Smart...and yet so remarkably dumb. You may have noticed that the two main threats to our current civilization (or maybe even species) are hardly even mentioned in the media. One was prominently featured just a few years ago, but seems to have faded into the background...again. The other is hardly ever mentioned. And each problem is condemned as a "conspiracy theory" by the guys allegedly promoting awareness of the *other* problem!

The first one is the climate crisis. It´s not entirely absent from the news feeds, but it´s obvious that this little darling of the radical left and the Greens has been put on the back burner ever since the COVID pandemic and the full scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. Even the activists themselves seem tired of it, since very few Monet paintings have been attacked lately. At least until recently, they were prioritizing Gaza.

The other is the demographic crisis. You know, the Great Replacement. Although it would have happened even if the evil evilly glo-baalists hadn´t schemed to import millions of foreigners to the hallowed White nations of the North. See: South Korea and Japan. It´s virtually certain at this point that Whites and East Asians will be replaced by South Asians, Central Asians and West Africans. And then, they too will probably start to decline in terms of population.

We are moving towards a world with much fewer people and a worse climate, a world most certainly unable to sustain a modern civilization, perhaps any civilization. And yet, almost nobody is talking about it. And if you talk about one, you refuse to acknowledge the other. If you want to know how great civilizations fall, look no further than this.

Yuge, amazing

 


Did you know that 250,000 people marched in support of Donald Trump the other day? In Germany. Yeah, really. Cheq your news feeds...

The pope is laughing

 


Not sure if this really means that much, but it´s fun listening to. Especially if you´re a nerd. It´s also a good summary of the bewildering diversity of Christian Churches and denominations. In practice, of course, even Churches that are in some sense "close" might hate each other - witness the rather rocky historical relations between Catholics and Orthodox. To mention just one example...

Protestants procreate through meiosis

 


Our man Joshua discusses some new denominations (or Churches...or God-knows-what) in the United States. 

The most "normal" is a Mennonite denomination which voluntarily split into three, to avoid making its bureaucracy too unwieldy. The others are marked by scheming, serious abuse allegations, or utter theological confusion. Delusions of grandeur play a part in some kind of new "Catholic" Church yada yada. 

I´m not a (Roman) Catholic, but I have to say that the picture of contemporary Protestantism which emerges here isn´t entirely sympathetic! 

Night and day

 


Varuna and Aditi. Suitable for Sundays? Note Makara in the water!

HA HA HA

 


OK, this was interesting...

Neo-Pagans and Magickians are mocking the Iranian regime, which recently organized a burning of Baal in effigy. Which according to Western occultists mean that you effectively *worship* the god in question. Apparently, the effigy was marked with the Star of David.

Styx (link above) points out that the hexagram wasn´t originally a Jewish symbol. Exactly. Last time I looked, the hexagram might also be a symbol of Saturn or of Shiva-Shakti. Let´s hope they like fire!  

Petigt

 


Kan inte Kanadas curlinglag sluta peta på de där jäkla stenarna? Eller är de alltför curlade? 

Holy mermaid

 


The article is a bit click-baity, since everyone already knew the "mermaid mummy" was fake, but note the claim that it was supposed to be worshipped! There is more to explore here, clearly. 

Haunting "mermaid" mummy even more bizarre than researchers thought
