Abbey Ov Thelema - MMXII: Here & Now - At the Threshold ov End Times Songtexte
Part i: the body (the many who became one, yet refused to dissolve into none)
A lone velvet hermit wandering among the scattered stars
In a state ov cancer-driven despair
About to roam through the center ov the galaxy
This pitiful planet infested with a parody ov intelligent life
A life dependent on shackles ov obsolete and long dead egregores
Monotheistic centralized religions
Organized apocalyptic death cults
Awaiting a promised savior
Who seems to be two millennia late
An aeon ov a constant armageddon
Reawaken each day to the same nightmare
In bonds ov the deepest spiritual slavery
A curse upon you, the many who became one,
Yet refused to dissolve into none!
Mmxii e.v. – or cviii ov the aeon ov horus (if you will)
The best possible time
To accelerate the intricate process
Ov subconscious acceptance
Ov new aeon values
By these ignorant, profane masses
Abraham, moses, jesus & mohammed – they all were wrong
I, born from a fallen star
A herald ov the age ov aquarius, (one ov many)
Shall succeed where they have failed!
Let the world be embraced
In the arms ov the seven-breasted babalon
Our scarlet lady riding the seven-headed beast
To mega therion, sescenti sexaginta sex
…let the fucking orgasm ov the apocalypse cummence!
I invoke thee, qabalistic zero!
The sacred nothing, the metaphysical vacuum within us!
The freedom which is truly valueless!
Unleash me! bring the fall ov all egregores and memes
Let thy metacosmic nihilism be witnessed by every eye!
All hail ankh-af-na-khonsu!
All hail hoor-paar-kraat!
All hail ra-hoor-khuit!
All hail heru-ra-ha!
I refuse to inhale the opium ov the masses ever again…
This is the triumph ov the individual!
Here i stand – in the sacred here & now –
Unbound by both past & future.
Part ii: the mind (making the darkness conscious)
Just as no one ever became enlightened
By visualizing angels and figures ov light,
But by making the uttermost darkness
And the most terrible demons conscious;
Just as dante had to go through the inferno and purgatory to reach paradise;
Just as jesus, after the crucifixion, had to descend to hell to be later uplifted to heaven;
So a thelemite has to cross the abyss and defeat choronzon
Before he is let to step into the city ov pyramids.
And so, analogically, mankind has to go through the greatest ov all woes and sufferings,
Through famine, disease, war & death, through the darkest ov all times,
It has to be confronted with the beast within,
And not to try to defeat what is invincible, but accept it,
In order to be able to rebuild an earthly paradise for everyone.
This is the step…
Making the darkness conscious…
Where hitherto all prophets and spiritual teachers failed…
Almost 130 years passed since nietzsche wrote his gay science
We all know by now that god is dead – it’s nothing more than a vague, empty word –
And all his temples are like his gravestones.
We live in an era ov immorality (which is the first step to immortality!)
We live in the best possible time to make the darkness conscious!
Part iii: the spirit (all shall be as it ever was)
I am alone – there is no god where i am!
Let it by widely declared and accepted by everyone
That there is no god but man!
Man is god!
Mmxii – the coming ov the űbermensch!
The most materialistic philosophy becomes spiritual
The most freudian psychology becomes a sacred religious truth!
Holy, holy, thrice holy thee art, atheistic teachers ov mankind,
Expanders ov our collective consciousness!
Since xciii is the overcome ov dualism and the ascension into nothing,
And since christianity is dualism non plus ultra,
Xciii is not just the supreme left-hand path,
But it the ultimate setianism as well!
Therefore i invoke thee, unholy trinity,
(the great dragon, the great beast & the scarlet whore)
The evil (standing outside the dichotomy ov good & evil) predicted by the false prophet,
Thou ancient shaitan masqueraded as egyptian horus!
Holy, holy, thrice holy thee art, blake, crowley, spare, and all the thelemic saints!
I invoke thee, qabalistic zero!
The sacred nothing, the spiritual emptyness within us!
The freedom which is truly atributeless!
Unleash me! bring the fall ov all egregores and memes
Let the news ov thy nihilism be heard by every ear!
This is the overcome ov duality!
This is the unity ov the self – nay!
This is the destruction ov the self!
Do not believe in change
After the winter solstice nothing shall change
Even if christ descends from the skies
Even if the whole earth perishes
Nothing will ever change
All shall be as it ever was.
Why to fight a religion, which can’t defeat over its own devil?
Why to waste time in a battle already won?
All shall be as it ever was.
The true laws ov nature can never be defiled
There’s no first who will be last
And no last who will be first
But the kings shall forever rule
And the slaves shall forever serve
All shall be as it ever was!
Nothing will ever change:
Only freedom, love, and god
– these three mystical words –
Can be redefined.
And through this redefinition:
Behold a new age arise,
An age ov the child,
When we finally put the mistakes
Ov our ancestors to rest.
