Ethical National-Socialism is a progressive continuation of National-Socialism as practiced by the Führer in the days of the Third Reich. It is how he viewed the Aryan race and other ethical cultures. I've often been asked if one can have racial pride without all the hatred associated with it today. I believe that this is possible with the study and practice of Ethical National-Socialism.

Aryan Nations has adopted what David W. Myatt has renamed, Ethical National-Socialism. It is a National-Socialist platform that promotes the ethical treatment of all races and individuals providing they also extend the same treatment of our Aryan peoples. It is something that should be studied by all practitioners of N-S and especially those that would like to work with us here at Aryan Nations.

The following attachment contains a collection of essays concerning Ethical National-Socialism written by David W. Myatt in. pdf format to enable those interested in Aryan Nations and the Reichsfolk to download and read at their leisure. I hope that you find David Myatts works as interesting, progressive and educational as I do!

What Is Ethical National-Socialism?

Ethical National-Socialism is an explication, and evolution, of the National-Socialism of Adolf Hitler.

The National-Socialism of Adolf Hitler was evident in the idealism of the Third Reich, and manifest in such organizations as The Hitler Youth and the Waffen-SS. As Myatt wrote in a Reichsfolk essay:

" The society which was created after the NSDAP achieved power was in many ways a compromise. Hitler himself admitted (to Leon Degrelle among others) that it would be the next generation - the Hitler Youth generation - which would create a genuine National-Socialist society. Organizations such as the SS and the Hitler Youth were steps toward the creation of such a National-Socialist society, and it was these organizations which implemented the ideal of personal honour, and respect for others, of whatever race and culture. As Hitler and his true followers, such as Rudolf Hess, matured in understanding, so too did National-Socialism. National-Socialism was not born, fully-developed and fully-understood, in the early years of the NSDAP - it developed slowly, over several decades. Thus, as Hitler admitted, Mein Kampf was never intended to be some kind of bible of National-Socialism: it was the product of its time and while most of the underlying principles of National-Socialism were laid down in that book, some principles were not. What was written was subject to change, to revision, as National-Socialism itself developed.

What must be understood is that many people in Germany at that time did not understand National-Socialism; and it could be said that many of the people who voted for or supported Hitler were not genuine National-Socialists: they voted for or supported him for personal reasons unconnected with the idealism of honour, duty and loyalty.

With the defeat of Germany and its allies in the First Zionist War, National-Socialism was purified, emerging as a complete way of life, centred around honour, loyalty and duty. The political compromises needed to achieve power were gone, as were the supporters who did not understand or live up to the ideals of National-Socialism. The essence emerged as the shell covering the essence was destroyed in the crucible of that war. People who have described this essence include Savitri Devi, Miguel Serrano, and Leon Degrelle.

Since we now consciously understand this essence, it is possible to create - and only now possible to create - a genuine National-Socialist society. This would be an entirely new type of society and while the inspiration would be National-Socialist Germany, it would in many ways be very different, although it would manifest the same ethos, the same ideals. "

Ethical National-Socialism thus represents not only the essence of the National-Socialism of Adolf Hitler, but is also a conscious and ethical development of that particular Weltanschauung, founded upon the ethical principles of honour, loyalty, and duty. According to the ethical principle of honour, we as individuals should act in a cultured, a civilized, way: that is, we should have self-control, and manners, and strive to treat others fairly. As it says in our Code of Honour:

"A man or woman of honour treats others courteously, regardless of their culture, religion, status, origins, and race, and is only disdainful and contemptuous of those who, by their attitude, actions and behaviour, treat they themselves with disrespect or try to personally harm them, or who treat with disrespect or try to harm those whom the individual man or woman of honour have personally sworn loyalty to or whom they champion."

Thus, ethical National-Socialism is non-racist, believing that there should be a mutual respect, among individuals of different cultures possessed of a different folkish heritage, based on an honourable acceptance of our differences. For ethical National-Socialists accept that Nature has worked to produce, in human beings, diversity and difference, and that we should respect and value this natural diversity and difference, and aid and further evolve it. To respect and aid this natural diversity and difference, ethical National-Socialists believe that we should strive, in an honourable way, to create free, independent, folk homelands where we can live among people of our own culture, be aware and proud of our natural ancestral folkish heritage, while maintaining that others peoples have the same right and the same duty to live in their own independent, folk homelands. This derives from the belief that our very life, as dignified noble human beings, in inseparably bound up with our folk: that it is the folk that provides the meaning of our lives and provides ourselves with our true identity; and thus that it is through the folk, through being part of a small folk community, that we can find our self-respect and live in a truely human and noble way.

In addition, the main emphasis on ethical National-Socialism is upon personal and social change through individuals living in an ethical way according to the principles of The Numinous Way of Folk Culture, and thus it is not primarily a political movement interested in agitating for or obtaining political power. This derives in part from the belief that was is important - what is ethical - are small folk communities where we can establish an honourable, living - numinous - identity for ourselves and live in harmony with Nature, being a living nexus between our ancestors and the future of our folk.

Thus, in ethical National-Socialism there has been a move away from large modern nation-States toward establishing an entirely new way of life, believing that modern nation-States have produced and do produce an inauthentic, often inhuman, way of life that robs us of dignity, freedom, honour and our true folkish identity, and that it is through identifying with our folk, with being part of a new living clan, that we can once again live in a dignified, human, way in harmony with ourselves, our folk community, the land, and Nature.

Why National-Socialism is Not Racist

Street Vendor in Berlin, NS Germany

Correctly defined and understood, National-Socialism is an ethnic philosophy which affirms that the different races, the different peoples, which exist are expressions of our human condition, and that these differences, this human diversity, should be treasured in the same way we treasure the diversity of Nature. National-Socialists believe our world would be poorer were these human differences to be destroyed through abstract ideas: through the creation of a socially-engineered cypto-Marxist society.

Furthermore, National-Socialism is a pure expression of our own unique Aryan ethics, based as these ethics are upon the idealism of duty to the folk, duty to Nature, and upon the nobility of personal honour.

National-Socialism is a way of living which affirms that the purpose of our lives is to contribute to evolution in a positive way. We contribute to evolution when we do our duty to our folk, since our folk (our race and culture) is our connection to Nature: how Nature is manifest in us as human beings.

National-Socialism expresses the natural truth that the living being which is Nature works to produce diversity and difference: that the evolution of Nature is a bringing-into-being of more diversity and more difference.

For our own, human, species this diversity of Nature is evident in the different races which exist, and in the different cultures which these races develope over time.

National-Socialism values this diversity and difference, and states that we should not only strive to maintain and aid this diversity, but also encourage the peoples and cultures which express this diversity and difference to continue to develope and evolve, for by so developing and evolving race and culture we are aiding the evolution of Nature and thus fulfilling our potential, as human beings.

The Ethics of National-Socialism: Treating Other Races With Respect

According to National-Socialist ethics, what is good is what is honourable, what aids Nature and the living beings of Nature (such as our own race), and what aids the evolution of the cosmos itself. Our duty is to do what is honourable and what aids Nature, the living beings of Nature, and the cosmos, even if doing this duty makes us, as individuals, unhappy, or even if it means our own death. Furthermore, the happiness of the majority, of other people, comes second to this duty.

The perspective of National-Socialist ethics is that of Nature - and indeed of the cosmos itself of which Nature is but a part. The perspective of all other ethics is the perspective of the individual, of their happiness, their winning of some reward in this life or the next.

In addition, National-Socialist ethics - being based upon the ideal of personal honour - means and implies that we National-Socialists must strive to treat all people with courtesy and respect, regardless of their race and culture. This alone disproves the lie of National-Socialism being "racist", just as the true history of National-Socialist Germany (as opposed to the lies about NS Germany) proves how honourable and respectful genuine National-Socialists were toward others races and cultures.

The Reichsfolk Declaration

Reichsfolk is committed to presenting the truthful reality of National-Socialism. The truth is that National-Socialism is an idealistic and noble way of life based upon the principles of honour, reason, fairness, loyalty, duty to one's own people, and to Nature, and respect for and understanding of other cultures and other ways of life.

Reichsfolk is committed to introducing others to the civilized reality of National-Socialism, and to striving to implement the idealism of National-Socialism in practical ways, through civilized, cultured, reasonable means, without using any kind of force or coercion.

It should also be made clear that the kind of National-Socialism that Reichsfolk seeks to establish - and all pure, genuine, National-Socialist organizations seek to establish - is a civilized and rational National-Socialism that rejects and opposes any kind of oppression, subjugation and intolerance toward others on account of culture, belief or race. Reichsfolk also opens its arms in friendship to all the peoples of the world, on the basis of mutual respect and honour.

The enemies of Reichsfolk are corrupt politicians and those - of any race, culture and belief - who use dishonourable means to oppress, tyrannize and subjugate others, or who do dishonourable, ignoble things which take away or restrict the freedom, dignity and honour of others, and/or which take away the right of people to respect the ways of their own culture and live among their own kind according to their own honourable laws and customs.

Reichsfolk expresses the view that all who call themselves National-Socialists should reform themselves, and adopt the true and genuine National-Socialism which Reichsfolk upholds: a National-Socialism which, being based upon honour, asserts that National-Socialists must treat all people with courtesy and respect, regardless of their race, their culture, their way of life or their beliefs.

One of the fundamental aims of this true and genuine National-Socialism is the creation of free and independent nations, co-operating with each other on the basis of equal partnership, where the people of a particular culture and race can live, among their own kind according to their own honourable laws, traditions and customs, thus enabling the different cultures of the peoples of the world to survive and flourish.

Genuine National-Socialist organizations do not wish to implement National-Socialism forcibly but only in a peaceful, fair, cultural and educational way thus allowing the majority to walk upon the true path of honour, reason and liberty. If National-Socialism becomes the choice of the majority only then will it be implemented in a political way. If it does not become the choice of the majority, then National-Socialist movements, groups and organizations will strive to co-exist with other religions, ways of living, and beliefs, on the basis of mutual respect, tolerance, freedom and understanding. National-Socialism seeks to use methods which are fair, just, rational and honourable to find and implement solutions to all the complicated and difficult problems which confront our species.

This mutual respect, tolerance and understanding is how others should treat National-Socialists, and if they do not treat National-Socialists in this way, then they are acting dishonourably and accordingly are our enemies and the enemies of all those who uphold honour, reason, liberty and true justice.

The Clan and Ethical National-Socialism

The folkish way, the way of a numinous ethical National-Socialism, is the way of the clan - of a folk bound by ties of blood and loyalty. Our folkish, numinous, way is not the way of a large, impersonal, nation, nor the way of the abstract, soul-less State. The clan makes real the essence of our folkish way - the way of living-beings; the way of us, as individuals, being a connexion between the past of our folk, and the future of our folk; a connexion between the living-being which is our folk, and the living-beings which are Nature and the Cosmos. As such, the clan is numinous, and allows for - indeed is founded upon - honour, loyalty and duty to our folk, our kindred, and is thus a manifestation of genuine freedom.

For thousands of years our folk lived in communities based upon clans - and they created a way of living which instinctively manifested our numinous ethos. Now - with our ethos consciously understood, and manifest in ethical National-Socialism - we can create new communities, new homelands, new folkish clans, which will enable us to live with honour, with loyalty, with dignity, and do our duty to the living-beings of our folk, Nature, and the Cosmos. Furthermore, this return to the clan is not some return to an idealized past - rather, it is an evolutionary step; a move forward, toward a new, and numinous future. That is, we advocate a return to the clan - to communities based upon the clan; to a new homelands based upon such a community - because it is the honourable, the civilized, the evolutionary, the numinous, thing to do.

We need to understand that modern nations, and modern political States are large, lifeless, abstract, constructs which deny the right of personal honour and which undermine those ties of of kinship and loyalty - and that numinous dwelling - which exist when a folk live in a small area. Accordingly, we must reject anything and everything connected to such nations and such States - and instead embrace the way of the clan. This means rejecting politics; government; political parties; propaganda; ideology; the urban way of living.

What is a folkish clan? It is a group of individuals, of the same folk, who band together - on the basis of honour and loyalty - under the leadership, the guidance, of a chieftain, whom they all respect, and to whom they give a personal oath of loyalty. The basis of a clan is kindred and loyalty - you are related to, and/or personally know, the members of your clan, just as your first loyalty, your first duty, is to your clan. The very origin of the word clan shows it is part of our folkish heritage - it passed into common usage in Middle English, being from Scottish Gaelic clann, meaning family, from the Old Irish cland, meaning offspring.

The clan is our future - nations, States, and impersonal, tyrannical governments with their Police forces and their dishonourable laws which take away our honour, and which prevent us from doing our honourable duty to out folk, belong to the past.

The Concept of The Folk

Do you consider what you call "the folk" is the same as race? Are you against the concept of a nation, and thus against nationalism? A folk is not the same as "a race". A folk arises over time, through living in a certain area - a homeland - through shared experiences, through a common heritage, history and so on. Over time, a specific culture arises, which represents that particular folk, and the folk of this homeland develop a certain character: a certain nature, which in general serves to distinguish them from the peoples of others cultures. This character may be manifest in their way of life, their religious outlook, their literature, their natural music (that is, their "folk music"). Consider two examples - the English, and the Germans. Racially, the two peoples are very similar. But they belong to different folks - that is, their character, their culture, is different. Generally, the people of a particular folk community share a common racial ancestry but the living being which is and becomes their folk - their folk culture, their homeland - evolves, changes, and brings into being a new type of life which is different from the life of the other communities who initially may have shared the same racial heritage. Thus, a folk is not an abstract, easily defined, static, "thing" like the concept of race. It is a living, changing, evolving, being - a unique type of life. What defines a folk is thus far more than a certain set of physical or physiological or genetic characteristics. A folk is a symbiotic being - in symbiosis with the being which is the homeland of that folk, with that community or that collection of folkish communities. All this makes the culture, the Way of Life, the ethos (or soul) of that folk living as well. And it is this living which is numinous, which presences the numinous. As I said in a recent interview:

"We are concerned with folk communities and their culture - living things - and not some abstract concept such as "race" has become. How do we define our folk? Is it primarily a physical definition, something which can be measured? No - our folk is primarily where we belong, where we dwell; where our being is at rest. Our folk and its homeland are numinous; that which connects us to our past - and future - in a living way. We either feel this, sense this connexion, or we do not.

A folk community cannot be created by some political ideology, nor by some law or laws, or even by a large State. It exists; it lives, already; it dwells in a particular place; it has come into being - or comes into being - over a period of time. Thus, to create a new folk community we begin with what has already come-into-being: the people of the same folk and culture who dwell in what was once their homeland. or whose ancestors came from that homeland. There is then a natural change and evolution - not a politically forced, abstract ideological change - within that community, which natural change and evolution arises over time through such things as following, upholding, the ethic of honour, through responding to the challenges which that community will face, through developing empathy via a dwelling on and working

with the land, and through developing reason and understanding. What will result will be a new coming-into-being: a new folk."

What has happened in Europe, and is happening elsewhere, is that the divergent, different, folkish characters have been and are being broken down and made more uniform. This is partly due to un-folkish abstract ideas and religions, such as Christianity, and - latterly - the mass Media and capitalism which have created a soulless urbanized denizen. Add to this the effect of the social engineering that has taken place over the past fifty or sixty years, as well as immigration from other peoples, and there is the destruction of folk communities and folk identity and folk homeland - the destruction of these folkish living-beings. In truth, abstract ideas, often political, the social engineering of covert Marxism, capitalism, and religions like Christianity, are diseases which have attacked living, folkish, beings - making them ill, and in some cases destroying them. Today, in these times, what is called a "community" is a dead, abstract form or, more often than not, consists of peoples from diverse cultures and diverse ways of life. What are now called "folk traditions" are the ways of the past, often used as mere diversions or entertainment for tourists. Thus we have the unfolkish concept of "Europe" and the "European community" which are lifeless political and capitalist constructs, devoid of numinosity and which have destroyed many folk communities and which threaten many more. In the same way we have the unfolkish political concept of The State and the "nation". Most so-called nations are lifeless, abstract, unfolkish - that is, they do not represent a particular folk, and are often more than the homeland of a folk. Many nations combine many folk, many folk communities, into an abstract, political form and thus are detrimental to the living beings of the folk. Often, such an abstract nationalism is imposed, by a ruler, or a government, and this imposition weakens, and destroys, the many diverse folks forced together into such an artificial "nation". However, some "nations" - very few - are of one folk, and thus living. But this is not the norm, and thus it is better not to use the outmoded now rather meaningless concepts of "nation" and "nationalism". Most so-called "nationalism" is unfolkish - for such nationalism seldom represents a true folk, a true living culture, just as it does not accept honour as the basis for the laws of such a nation, just as it accepts the un-numinous idea of The State, and just as it is for the most part far too large to be a living, healthy being such as genuine folk community is.

What is Reichsfolk?

Reichsfolk is a leaderless, non-structured, social movement based upon and dedicated to propagating the noble principles and ideals of ethical, non-racist, National-Socialism.

These noble principles are honour, fairness, reason and a reverence for Nature. Part of this reverence for Nature is an acceptance of the diversity of human cultures and the vital importance of the ethnic diversity of people as a manifestation of Nature.

Reichsfolk is open to people of any race/folk and culture, and - as stated in The Reichsfolk Declaration - "Reichsfolk opens its arms in friendship to all the peoples of the world, on the basis of mutual respect and honour."

One of the aims of Reichsfolk is to create a new homelands for people of various cultures, where they can live, in freedom, among their own kind according to their own folkish traditions, customs and laws.

Thus, Reichsfolk aims to establish groups or associations among peoples of all cultures, with the aim of the folk of these cultures seeking to establish their own folk homeland, and with all these diverse, world-wide, groups and associations co-operating together, on the basis of mutual respect and honour. One task of such Reichsfolk groups and associations would be to establish new communities for people of their own folk.

The mission of Reichsfolk is:

1) To uphold and champion the new ethical Way of Life of National-Socialism, evident in separate, free, independent folk homelands.

2) To champion and make known our unique human Destiny of Galactic exploration and the colonization of Outer Space.

3) To seek the creation of a homeland where ethical National-Socialists can live in freedom, among their own people, according to the noble principles of National-Socialism, and where their unique heritage, culture and Destiny can flourish and evolve in a noble way.

4) To uphold and champion the free, rational and scientific enquiry and discovery which is an indisputable and necessary part of civilization and which thus forms a part of that natural religion of civilized individuals which is National-Socialism.

5) To establish sanctuaries of outstanding and untouched natural beauty where the profound presence of Nature can be experienced and where Nature herself can be protected from profane development.

The Spiritual Policies of Reichsfolk

The primary practical and immediate aims are: (1) to create a new way of living through establishing new urban and especially rural communities and organic farms where the ideals of National-Socialism can be put into practice; (2) to create a new type of person through individuals living in this new way, in such communities and on such farms. These aims arise from the belief that only this new way of living can solve the problems which beset our world and create the noble Golden Age which all civilized people yearn for in their hearts. These communities will form the basis for the creation of a new homelands sometime in the future.

The way of living which Reichsfolk aims to create is civilized and spiritual, and in harmony with Nature, and the policies of Reichsfolk are a means to bring this way of living about. These policies are basically a guide to living, and, for example, express how individuals should conduct themselves in their relations with others. The policies express a civilized, honourable, reasoned, noble and thus ethical attitude towards other individuals.

This ethical attitude arises because, as a spiritual organization, Reichsfolk is devoted to enlightening others. Thus, it upholds, and desires to convert others to, certain ethical principles. These principles are personal honour, fairness, duty to the folk, duty to Nature, Reason and Excellence. Reason means individuals upholding reason (and the logic on which reason is based) while Excellence means individuals striving to use their will to do what is best.

Reichsfolk upholds these principles - and expects its members to follow them - because it views these principles as a the foundation of the spiritual way, and thus as the means whereby individuals can achieve enlightenment and so fulfil their purpose in this life.

The Way of Enlightenment

Reichsfolk believes that the only true way to achieve enlightenment is for individuals to strive to uphold the ethical principles of honour, fairness, duty, Reason and Excellence.

This striving involves the individual using their own will to change themselves for the better; it involves them doing this because they are, or seek to become, idealistic - that is, because they know or have discovered the value and importance of idealism as the way to living a civilized, ethical, life.

This way of idealism, based as such idealism is on the reality of Nature and the cosmos itself, is the spiritual way of Reichsfolk. This way to enlightenment - along the path of noble, Nature-revering idealism - is what distinguishes Reichsfolk from all other spiritual organizations.

The way of Reichsfolk is the way of Reason: a rational understanding of our place in the scheme of Nature, a rational understanding of our duty to Nature, and a rational desire to change ourselves for the better and so continue the positive evolutionary work of Nature.

We can change ourselves for the better through striving to uphold the noble principles on which Reichsfolk is based.

On the practical level of everyday living, this way involves us in:

(1) striving at all times to be reasonable and logical;

(2) treating all individuals - regardless of race, status, culture and religion - in an honourable and fair way;

(3) making no judgement about any individual unless we have a personal acquaintance with that individual, and if and when we do make a judgement about some individual, we let fairness, reason and logic be our guide;

(4) striving to enlighten other individuals by converting them to the way of honour, fairness, duty, Reason and Excellence.

Politics and Social Change

Reichsfolk firmly believes that the only way to create the new civilized and advanced society we need is through individuals changing themselves in a fundamental way by upholding in their own lives ethical values and principles such as honour, fairness, reason and duty.

The fundamental change that is required to bring about this new society is this personal change. This change cannot be brought about through ordinary political reform or revolution - for that usually only affects the external forms such as Institutions. The real revolution that is required is this personal spiritual revolution - a change of values and a change to idealism. This spiritual revolution can only be achieved through personal example and on an individual basis by individuals fundamentally changing themselves for the better - by becoming enlightened. Anything else is temporary and superficial.

Reichsfolk has set itself practical and achievable goals, based on ethical values, which it believes are worthwhile and necessary, and it will pursue these goals independent of whatever political and social circumstances pertain, independent of whatever criticism is levelled against it, and with complete independence from all political and social organizations whatever. For only this ethical and spiritual approach will achieve what must be achieved: our enlightenment as individuals and the new advanced society which can work in harmony with Nature and continue our upward and civilized evolution.

The Meaning of National-Socialism

Introduction

This pamphlet is a basic introduction to National-Socialism, written by a National-Socialist. It is not concerned with history - it deals solely with National-Socialist philosophy: what National-Socialism itself actually is, and what National-Socialists believe in or uphold. As this work will show, genuine National-Socialism - ethical National-Socialism - is totally opposed to the values, and the ideas, which have come to dominate the modern "Western" world. The basic values of genuine, ethical, National-Socialism are the now almost forgotten values of honour, a striving for excellence, self-discipline and the triumph of individual will. The heroic warrior spirit of National-Socialism is totally opposed to the self-indulgent materialism which has come to dominate every modern social-worker infested "Western" society.

National-Socialism has become a real modern heresy, feared and reviled. For over seventy years, the opponents of National-Socialism have been spreading their lies and propaganda about National-Socialism; for the past fifty years, the governments of every so-called "Western" country have indoctrinated their peoples with these lies and this propaganda. In many of these countries, National-Socialism, and National-Socialist literature, is illegal, with public displays of National-Socialist symbols, such as the swastika, forbidden; in nearly every other country National-Socialists are actively persecuted and imprisoned. In all these countries, the only information available to the public about National-Socialism has come from its enemies. This pamphlet aims to change this, presenting as it does the suppressed truth about National-Socialism.

What Is National-Socialism?

National-Socialism believes there are two fundamental ways of living, and thus two fundamental types of society based upon these two ways. There is the material way of living, with individuals striving for, or pursuing, "happiness", material comfort and wealth. Then there is the way of excellence, of idealism (or nobility) with individuals striving for an idealistic goal. National-Socialism believes the material way is decadent - a waste of our lives, a waste of the evolutionary potential which we possess.

Furthermore, National-Socialism believes that the life of an individual is better, more fulfilling, if the idealistic goal that is pursued is in accord with the will of Nature. That is, if this idealistic goal aids Nature, and continues the evolutionary work of Nature. This stems from the National-Socialist assertion that we, as human beings, are part of Nature, and subject to the laws of Nature. All other philosophies, political beliefs or religions assert that we, as human beings, are somehow "above", different or separate from, Nature and her laws.

One of the fundamental aims of National-Socialism is to continue the work of Nature by creating better, more advanced, individuals and by creating a better, more advanced, more civilized society for these individuals to live and flourish in. National-Socialism believes that better individuals can only be created through the pursuit of noble values - by individuals changing themselves for the better through a personal act of will. This requires individuals, and society itself, to champion and uphold those values which create personal excellence, which aid the individual change necessary. According to National-Socialism, these values are honour, loyalty and duty - for only these values create the right type of idealistic person, someone with a purity of purpose. It is these values, and these values alone, which create a civilized individual. A civilized person is a more evolved individual - someone with a higher, a noble, personal character. Further, it is the duty of each noble individual to act in accord with the workings, the will, of Nature herself.

According to National-Socialism, the folk - or, less correctly, "race" - is how Nature works. For National-Socialism, the folk is Nature made manifest; the folk is our connection to Nature. The different folks which exist among our human species are an expression of evolution in action - of Nature working over Aeons to produce diversity and difference. Thus, the folk is an expression of our very humanity - of our human identity (1).

Accordingly, National-Socialism desires to preserve and further evolve, in an honourable way, the folk itself. All other philosophies, political beliefs or religions desire to destroy the folk through creating multi-racial, multi-cultural societies.

However, it needs to be stressed that National-Socialism - being based upon honour - demands that all National-Socialists treat all people, of whatever race and culture, with respect. To do otherwise, is contrary to the ethics of National-Socialism, based as these ethics are upon honour.

For National-Socialism, the fundamental meaning of our lives, as individuals, is to strive to continue the work of Nature. This means striving to advance ourselves through upholding, in our own lives, the civilized values of honour, loyalty and duty; it means us doing our noble and civilized duty by striving to preserve and further evolve our own folk or race, and those things which make our own people unique. These unique things are the ethos, the soul, the character, the culture, of our folk. According to National-Socialism, the ethos, the character of our human species is expressed by honour, curiosity, exploration - these things express the true nature of we human beings. Furthermore, National-Socialism believes that it is the ultimate Destiny of our human species to settle among the stars of our galaxy - to create a Galactic Empire or Federation.

In contrast to the inspiring, the noble, the Galactic - the numinous - goals of National-Socialism, the goals of all other philosophies, political beliefs or religions are mundane, materialistic and a complete waste of our lives.

Honour, Loyalty and Duty:

A Personal Revolution

The fundamental personal values of National-Socialism - the foundation of National-Socialist morality - are honour, loyalty, and duty. A National-Socialist is someone who upholds, or who strives to uphold, these personal values: someone whose personal life is governed by these values. Thus, a true or genuine National-Socialist is someone who strives to be honourable, who is loyal to those they have sworn to be loyal to, and who does their National-Socialist duty.

The purpose of these values is to civilize, for it is these values which make a person civilized and noble. That is, these values express the essence of nobility and civilization; they create, or can create, a person who possesses a civilized, a noble, a strong character. In effect, these values create or can create a better individual; they are means whereby a personal, inner, revolution can be achieved through a triumph of individual will.

Honour:

Honour is basically the natural instinct for nobility made conscious and this is done through a Code of Honour (2). Some things are fair, and some other things are unfair. A person of noble character - someone with an inborn sense of fairness - knows or feels what is fair and what is unfair. Honour thus determines personal behaviour, and the high standards of personal behaviour which honour demands are set out by a Code of Honour. Most fundamental of all, an honourable person is prepared to die - if necessary by their own hand - rather than be dishonoured. If someone is not prepared to do this, or does not do this for the sake of their own honour, then they are not living in an honourable way. Honour is thus a hard, and simple, standard to live by, and those who are honourable thus possess a strong personal character and a purity of purpose. They are better, more noble, more civilized, more evolved individuals because of this.

Loyalty:

Loyalty, like honour, is simple to understand, and simple in practice. Loyalty is being true to a person you have sworn to be loyal to. True loyalty means taking an oath of loyalty, an oath of allegiance, to a particular person and never breaking that oath. An oath of loyalty can only be ended in two ways: (i) by the death of the person to whom you have sworn to be loyal, and (ii) by mutual agreement between you and the person given loyalty.

Thus, true loyalty, like honour, sets a high personal standard, and requires personal discipline. Fundamentally, loyalty means Comradeship - true loyalty means being a Comrade to those you have sworn to be loyal to, and never letting those Comrades down. True loyalty means aiding and assisting those Comrades even when it is personally difficult to do so - or even if it might mean one's own death. True loyalty often means placing one own self - one's own opinions for instance - second, after the person to whom you have pledged your loyalty.

Duty:

Duty is the obligation an individual has to do what is necessary and honourable. Thus, there is a duty to be loyal to those given loyalty. There is a duty to strive to live in an honourable way. For a National-Socialist, there is also the duty to promote National-Socialism, the duty to strive to act in accord with Nature's will by preserving, defending and evolving one's own folk, and the duty to strive for personal excellence.

Neglect of one's duty is a dishonourable act, and the sign of a weak personal character.

III

Triumph of the Will and Justice:

A Social Revolution

In respect of our basic human nature, or character, National-Socialism is positive and idealistic, believing that most individuals possess the potential to change themselves for the better. All that is required for such a positive, civilized and evolutionary change, is self-discipline and a natural idealism - the triumph of individual will caused by an individual striving, or struggling, for an idealistic goal which itself is in harmony with Nature. National-Socialism believes that, given good leadership - sufficient noble inspiration by honourable individuals - the majority of people can change themselves for the better and come to know and value honour, loyalty and duty. Those who now do not understand or value these noble things, can do so given good leadership and guidance.

National-Socialism goes further, believing that it is possible to create, to build, a positive, healthy, evolutionary society which provides the social conditions necessary for individuals to develope their natural character and their potential to the full. This society can only be created through a National-Socialist revolution - by the overthrow of the existing System which is based on materialism, indulgence, selfishness, and neglect of one's folk, and which is thus detrimental to the development of strong, honourable individuals, and detrimental to the will of Nature, manifest in race and racial diversity. The decadent values of this old System would be replaced by National-Socialist values. These National-Socialist values are personal honour, personal loyalty and duty to the folk.

A National-Socialist society, or Reich, is a society where the values of honour, loyalty and duty are upheld, and where they form the basic "code of practice" for those involved in public, or civic, life and are the basic rules which govern all the Institutions (military, Police, commercial, public, private, industrial and so on ) of the society.

In this new Reich, the old system of so-called "justice" - based upon abstract ideas and abstract dogma - would be replaced by National-Socialist, or honourable, justice. National-Socialism believes that real justice only and ever exists in honourable individuals - and cannot exist in anything lifeless or abstract, such as some "law", some "Court of Law", or some Institution, such as a Police force. It is individuals, and individual character, which matter, not something abstract and lifeless. A person is either honourable, and thus fair and just - or they are not.

Because of this understanding of the importance of individual character, such a Reich is a genuine folk-democracy where a real freedom exists. This freedom exists in such a National-Socialist society basically because of honour and duty: individuals know or accept their honourable duty, to themselves and others, and strive to do that duty to the best of their ability. For real freedom is not about "personal choice, personal rights" in isolation, as it is not about personal indulgence - it is about personal character. Real freedom means having the character to know what is dutiful and right, and having the character to do or try to do what is dutiful and right.

What must be understood is that personal honour, like folk itself, is a manifestation of the will of Nature - a means whereby we have evolved to become better, civilized beings. All modern societies undermine individual character, and thus real freedom, because they expect or demand that individuals conform or be subservient to something abstract or dogmatic which in unnatural because it is against the will of Nature as manifest in personal honour and the folk. These modern societies do not try to elevate the individual, in a natural way through developing personal character and through developing an understanding of our duties to Nature, evident in the folk. Instead, they effectively tyrannize or dictate to individuals by legislation, and social schemes which are enforceable by yet other laws, with more and more Prisons established to punish those who transgress the unending stream of new social and political legislation.

A really free society does not need "laws" which are enforced by a Police force, as it does not need hundreds of thousands of "social workers" or tens of thousands of professional lawyers - it only needs individuals who know what is honourable and who always strive to do the honourable thing. Modern societies are based on the mistaken and unnatural premise that it is legislation, social schemes enforced by laws, and the "deterrence" of Prison, which can make a better society. National-Socialism totally rejects this unnatural way, and instead upholds the natural way of honour and the triumph of individual will.

National-Socialism is also realistic, as well as idealistic. Thus, it accepts that there will always be a few individuals who are and always will remain dishonourable, cowardly and ignoble by nature, despite repeated attempts by noble and idealistic leaders to inspire and change these few. But it is always only a few who cannot change themselves for the better through a triumph of the will, and always only a few who thus are disruptive of a society based upon noble ideals. A National-Socialist Reich would give these few several chances to change themselves and thus become honourable dutiful individuals, through, for example, service to the folk in the Armed Forces. Should they still not change themselves, then they would be removed - via exiling them - for the removal of such a detrimental few is necessary to ensure the well-being of the whole.

National-Socialism: The Honourable Way Of Life

At present, the most important tasks of National-Socialism are to free people from the mental slavery they now endure in the dishonourable societies of the world, create free and honourable societies and then seek to fulfill the Destiny, the mission, of the human species. The beginning of this Destiny is to create new, folkish, or ethnic, homelands on this Earth, and then create new colonies among the stars of our Galaxy. The following five points briefly summarize the most important aspects of National-

Socialism.

(1) National-Socialism is an expression, a manifestation, of the Destiny of the human species. National-Socialism expresses the natural desire of healthy, noble, individuals to live among their own kind, to preserve and extend their unique folk and their unique culture, and to prosper and evolve still further in accord with the laws of Nature and in accord with the unique Destiny of the human species. According to National-Socialism, this Destiny is to civilize: to explore, to know, to quest after new adventures and new frontiers.

Fundamentally, National-Socialism expresses what it means to be honourable, and is a guide to an honourable way of life.

(2) National-Socialism is an expression of the desire of healthy, noble people to be free and to live in a socially just society. National-Socialism expresses the desire of healthy, noble people to be able to live in a noble society where honourable values and noble customs are upheld.

National-Socialism regards all present societies as dis-honourable, tyrannical and ignoble. All these societies are dedicated to the suppression of noble values, and to the destruction of folk values, customs and ethos. These societies, by their very nature and their unnatural social laws are harmful to us, and Nature. Accordingly, National-Socialism seeks the revolutionary overthrow, by honourable means, of these decadent and ignoble societies.

(3) National-Socialism expresses, affirms and champions honour over and above other values. In essence, honour is what express the soul, the character, the true nature, of we human beings, and thus represent what it means to be human and civilized.

Honour implies loyalty and duty and these three things express and represent the noble warrior spirit. This noble warrior spirit, or ethos, is totally opposed to the usury of capitalism, and in place of present societies built upon or dependant upon the usury of debt and interest, and thus dependant upon money and "International Finance", National-Socialism seeks to create an entirely new society founded upon honest work and concern for the welfare of the folk where the slavery of debt and interest would be abolished.

(4) National-Socialism expresses and affirms that "race" - the folk - is of fundamental importance. To affirm the folk, in an honourable way, is to affirm life itself, and the evolution of life toward a higher existence. To affirm the folk in an honourable way is to affirm and champion Nature, for the different folks are one of the ways in which Nature works, and how Nature is manifest to us, and in us, as individuals.

Thus National-Socialism champions ethnic difference and diversity, and the creation a separate ethnic homelands where a particular folk can live in freedom according to their own laws and customs.

(5) National-Socialism expresses and affirms the importance of individual character. The most fundamental principle of National-Socialism is that individuals can change themselves for the better through an act - through the triumph - of individual will and through being inspired by idealism. This is idealism: the pursuit of individual excellence - the triumph of noble values through pursuit of a noble, supra-personal aim.

The leadership principle which National-Socialism upholds is a practical manifestation of the excellence of individual character - of individuals of noble character leading and inspiring others

Accordingly, some of the fundamental, immediate and practical aims of National-Socialism are: (a) preserving the diversity of folk and culture of this world, through the creation of an folkish homelands; (b) encouraging through educational and military Institutions noble, honourable character in individuals, and ensuring the physical health and well-being of the folk, and particularly the young through rigorous physical and warrior training; (c) establishing a sound and prospering rural way of life and rural economy as a means of producing healthy food and encouraging healthy outdoor living.

V

Folk and Motherland:

The Inner Meaning of National-Socialism

National-Socialism provides an answer to the most fundamental, and the most important, question which we as individuals can ask: What is the meaning of life? According to National-Socialism, the meaning of our life, as individuals, is to evolve: to continue with, to further, the evolutionary work of Nature by striving for personal excellence and excellence, for our own folk or race, and for our human species in general through a rational, honourable, co-operation based upon folkish homelands. This is because we, as individuals, are not isolated beings - we are part of Nature, and part of our race. We, as individuals, are part of much larger living systems or beings. We depend on these large organic beings because we ourselves are organic beings and thus a part of the natural, the cosmic, order itself.

Furthermore, these large organic systems, these beings, also depend on us. That is, what we do, or do not do, affects them. We can keep them healthy and prosperous, and aid them to evolve still further. What we have forgotten - or been indoctrinated not to be believe - is that our folk, our folkish culture,

is our connection to Nature, and that a healthy society is by definition a folk society: an organic society based upon folk and honour. That is, a healthy, natural, society - one which expresses Nature, which aids Nature, which is in harmony with Nature - is an ethnic society which upholds "Blood and Honour". All other types of society, presently existing, or existing as a social, political or religious idea, are unnatural and harmful to Nature and the separate folk evolution which expresses the diverse health of living Nature.

We, as individuals, are our folk, our very ancestors, made manifest and re-born. Our folk is a supra-personal organism, a living being, which has existed, which has lived, for thousands of years before us. This living being which is our folk can also exist for thousands, for hundreds of thousands, of years after us. The very health, the well-being, the prosperity, the future of this living folkish being depends on us - we are its future, just as it is natural for us, our duty, to preserve, aid, defend and further evolve this living being. Thus, our purpose, our duty, is to preserve the racial purity of our blood in an honourable, reasoned way, and to further evolve our own folk. This duty is our very purpose, as individuals - it is what we are born to do, what we exist for. When we do not do this duty, we are wasting our lives, we are undermining and helping to destroy this living folkish being, and the greater living being which is Nature herself.

This is the simple, and profound, truth which National-Socialism champions and which the enemies of National-Socialism have suppressed and are trying so hard to destroy. Just as we are our folk, so are we are unique ethnic, or folk, culture and our unique human Destiny: for folk culture and our human Destiny are the soul, the essence, the very life, the consciousness, of this supra-personal living being which is our folk. Thus, it is also our duty, part of our purpose, to preserve, aid and further develope our unique folkish culture, and to strive to make our Destiny real through striving for excellence and further evolution. A fatherland - or motherland - is the homeland, the dwelling, of a specific people with a specific culture, the place where that people dwells or where they settle, and it is a means to preserve, aid and develope the folk: it is a folk society founded upon and upholding a specific folk culture and striving to fulfill the specific ethos of that folk. This unique homeland - when it is founded upon National-Socialist principles - thus becomes a living being: a living part of Nature. That is, the creation of such a homeland is a bringing-into-being of a new type of life, a new manifestation of Nature, and the Cosmic Being which is beyond Nature, of which Nature is one manifestation on this planet we call Earth. Hence the importance of such homelands, for our evolution, for Nature, and for the Cosmos itself.

The Way of Life of National-Socialism:

Philosophy of the Future

Correctly understood, National-Socialism is much more than a "political" or even a social philosophy: it is a complete, and revolutionary, Weltanschauung, or "philosophy of life". It is

profoundly spiritual and profoundly noble - a complete explanation of our human nature, our human Destiny, and our place in the general "scheme of things". In this sense, it is religious because it provides us with the answers which we seek and because it reflects, or represents, the natural order which exists in this world and the cosmos itself. Fundamentally, National-Socialism, as a way of living and as a religious, social and political philosophy, is an expression of the will of Nature. It is also, equally importantly, an expression of the nature and Destiny of our human species itself. As such, it is a complete Way of Life.

What Is The National-Socialist Way of Life?

The National-Socialist Way of Life is the natural way of life of the human species: that which aids our development, which makes us healthy and which can continue our evolution, as human beings. Such a Way of Life is healthy and inspiring, and represents, or expresses, the natural ethos, or soul, of we human beings - that which distinguishes us a noble, civilized, beings, which thus expresses our natural Destiny, and represents our innate or natural character. .

Our natural, innate, evolutionary character as human beings can be expressed by three words: curiosity, honour, conquest. By nature we, when we are true to ourselves, are curious - we seek to know, to understand, and we have developed the art, or skill, of reason to aid us in this quest, this striving, for understanding. By nature, we when we are true to ourselves, are honourable - we have an innate sense of fairness, of natural justice, and an innate sense of what is right. What is right, for us as human beings, is and always has been, what is honourable. By nature, we, when we are true to ourselves, are striving - we have an innate desire to overcome obstacles, difficulties through the power, strength, or the triumph of our will. This desire to strive is manifest, and has been manifest, in our natural warrior character.

When we express our natural nature, by our own lives and by our religious, or moral, beliefs, we are more healthy, more natural, than we would be otherwise. This is so because a natural Way of Life, or religion, reflects, and gives expression to, our nature and thus our conscience - our innermost beliefs and motives. It enables us to be "in harmony with our nature" and thus creates and maintains a healthy psyche in us as individuals.

In effect, a natural religion enables individuals to live in a human, civilized, way, and in practice this means our lives have a purpose: that they are fulfilling. When we live in accord with the principles and ideals of our own natural religion, we are fulfilling our own Destiny, as individuals, and thus aiding the unique Destiny of our own folk and the human species in general.

Furthermore, The National-Socialist Way of Life gives us a practical, reasonable and realistic answer to the most fundamental question of all, the question of our own existence - "What is the purpose of our lives as individuals, here on this planet we call Earth?"

For instance, for those of us who are of North European descent, the old pagan religions of our ancestors expressed some - but not all - of our nature. Examples of these old religions are the ancient Greek religion of the Homeric gods and the religion of the Vikings. Without exception, these old

religions were the religion of warriors, and reflected the nature and beliefs of ancient warrior societies, and thus that part of our Aryan nature which is warrior-like. Hence, the morality of these instinctive and natural Aryan religions was always based upon personal honour. These religions also expressed, to a greater or a lesser degree, our essential pagan nature - for instance, our intuitive awareness of the numinosity, or sacredness, of Nature; our intuitive understanding of the joys of living; our innate desire to excel, to strive for excellence and for conquest; and our innate appreciation of beauty and harmony. These old religions also saught to give an answer to the fundamental question of our existence, as they all saught to try and explain the cosmos, how it had arisen, how it worked and how it affected our lives, as individuals. Such explanations usually involved supra-human beings called "gods" and "goddesses" who often were personifications of natural or cosmic forces.

However, what all these old religions did not express was our unique Destiny. They also did not fully express our unique human nature. The new Way of Life of National-Socialism alone expresses and represents our true nature, as it alone expresses and represents our unique Destiny. Furthermore, National-Socialism presents us with a reasoned answer to the fundamental question of our existence, just as it explains in a reasoned way life, and the cosmos itself.

The meaning, or the purpose, of the old religions - like the civilizations our ancestors created - is that they have led us to the understanding of the present. They have prepared the way for the divine revelation made manifest in the new religion of National-Socialism.

The National-Socialist Way

The fundamental tenets, or principles, of this way of life (or religion) are:

1) That there exists a supra-human Being - called the Cosmic Being - and that this Cosmic Being creates, or can create, Order from Chaos. Order is the very life of this Being. Order itself is a new, a better, more evolved, or more excellent, arrangement of things.

2) That organic life itself is an expression, or manifestation, of the Order which this Cosmic Being creates, and is thus an expression of the life, the spirit, of this Being.

3) That change is a natural part of the evolution of Order from Chaos and that this, for organic life, involves the organic process of birth-life-death-renewal.

4) That death is not the final end of life, but the beginning of further change, a renewal of the cosmic order itself.

5) That what we call Nature is the Cosmic Being - the Order created by this Being - made manifest on this planet we call Earth. The creative force, or energy, which is present in Nature, and which produces, and causes changes in, living things - including ourselves - is this Cosmic Being, living and evolving, that is, creating more Order.

6) That we, as individuals, are this Cosmic Being - the very cosmos itself - made manifest. We sentient (that is, conscious and aware) beings are the striving of the Cosmic Being for more cosmic Order.

7) That our evolution, as human beings, is an increase in the cosmic Order and expresses the purpose, the life, or the will of the Cosmic Being. Thus the striving, or struggle, for order (or excellence) - for evolution toward higher forms - here on this planet, is how the Cosmic Being works on this planet of ours, and is thus natural and necessary, for without it, there would be no order and no evolution toward higher forms.

Cool That the Cosmic Being exists, or functions, in us through honour (or fairness), through curiosity (or reason) and through striving (or the triumph of individual will).

Thus, an honourable individual is someone who is doing the will, or accomplishing the work, of this Cosmic Being.

9) That culture, race and excellence of individual character express the will of this Being - of this Being working through Nature to bring about more Order, more diversity and more difference through evolution.

Thus, culture is one way in which this Cosmic Being is manifest to us, as human beings on this planet of ours. Culture thus expresses the essence of our humanity - of what makes us human. To preserve, and to further evolve, each culture - and to seek to allow these cultures to change - is to act in accord with the will, the purpose, of the divine creator, while to undermine or seek to destroy culture and cultural difference and diversity, is to act against the will of the divine creator. Each unique culture can and should evolve, according to its own unique nature: each unique culture should have the freedom to develop of itself.

A culture is a combination of : (1) the unique customs, outlook, traditions and achievements of a particular community, group, people or society, with this community, group, people or society sharing a common racial heritage; and (2) having a certain civilized way of life - the way of manners, reason, fairness, honour, and excellence. Culture is essentially an expression of our humanity - of what makes us human, and different from animals. A cultured person is thus a person who is civilized, and who possesses a sense of identity - who belongs to a particular culture and who lives the way of life of that culture.

10) That the human species has a special character, and a Destiny.

This character is expressed in our honour, curiosity and striving, and is made manifest by the civilization which humans create when they live according to their divine nature.

The Destiny of the human species is to bring the light of diverse civilizations into the world, and to spread this light - the honour and the reason of civilization - out into the cosmos itself by venturing forth to explore and settle the star-systems of the cosmos.

Guide To The National-Socialist Way Of Life

Honour, loyalty and duty are the fundamental ideals of National-Socialism. They represent nobility in action, and the striving to live by these ideals creates, or can create, a noble character in the individual. The Nine Fundamental Principles of National-Socialism, given below, express the practical essence of National-Socialism, for individuals, and are thus a guide to how a National-Socialist should live their life.

1) In everything that you do or undertake, strive for excellence.

2) Do your duty by placing the welfare and well-being of your folk before your own self-interest, and seek to preserve and extend your folk by marrying among your own kind, and by producing/nurturing healthy children.

3) Uphold the noble ideal of honour in your own personal life, and strive to live, and die, in an honourable way.

4) Strive to uphold the noble, human, ideals of fairness and courtesy by being fair and courteous toward others, and strive to treat animals in a humane way.

5) Be loyal to those you have sworn loyalty to, if necessary unto death. Your word, once given, should not be broken since to break your word is a dishonourable act.

6) Be intolerant of what is harmful and unhealthy to, and what endangers, your folk, and what is detrimental to the other manifestations of the Cosmic Being, provided always that you do only that which is honourable.

7) Reverence Nature and be respectful toward what reveals or expresses the numinous, the Cosmic Being.

Cool Always be ready, willing and physically fit enough to defend yourself and your family - and thus your own personal honour - and always carry a defensive weapon to enable your honour to be saved.

9) Seek always to make the world a better, a more noble, place by striving to make others aware of the noble ideals of honour, loyalty and duty.

What is Nature?

Nature is that innate creative force which operates in the physical world, on this planet, and which causes, or is the genesis of, and controls, living organisms in certain ways. These "certain ways" are the laws of Nature. The 'evolution of species' is a term used to describe a theory about one of the ways in which Nature works.

Nature can thus be conceived as a type of being. This does not mean that Nature should be understood in anthropomorphic terms, but rather that Nature is a living, changing, entity: some-thing which is alive. We ourselves, as human beings, are simply one manifestation, one presencing, of Nature among many: that is, we are subject to the laws of Nature, the laws which govern organic change and organic life itself. Like all life on this planet, we are born, we grow and change, and we die.

Most cultures had, or have, a belief that Nature is living, and the Mother of, the bringer-forth of, all life.

In olden times, Nature herself was often personified in terms of gods, and goddesses. That is, we apprehended Nature in terms of ourselves - in terms of individual beings with names, a history and a distinct personality. However, this type of apprehension is no longer necessary nor valid since we have developed, over the last few thousand years, the faculty of pure reason and can understand Nature, ourselves and the cosmos beyond Nature, in a natural manner without such intermediate forms. That is, we can now apprehend Nature as Nature is. Hitherto, we projected human-type forms onto Nature in an effort to comprehend Nature as we did not possess much of an understanding of the cosmos beyond Nature and how Nature is but part of this cosmos.

Thus, most people who belong to the Aryan folk no longer believe there is a mighty god named Thor, nor a goddess called Diana, who live, as distinct individual entities, in a different realm and who have

a personality and a personal history. Instead, we view Nature as a whole - as an entity which is and which becomes manifest, incarnate, in all living things, all of which have their own nature, their own destiny or fate. In the descriptive sense, our apprehension no longer relies on names. Instead, it is built upon pure reason itself; it is organic and beyond us, as humans with our finite individuality and our finite personalities.

This does not lessen the awe, the wonder, the respect for Nature - rather, it increases it because we are aware of the wider perspective, of how we are but part of a living, changing, evolving organic whole whose well-being, whose future, depends on us - on what we do, or do not do. For we are aware now of not only our personal duties, but also our supra-personal responsibilities toward Nature. If we harm Nature we are in effect only harming ourselves - undermining and possibly destroying our very future and the future of our descendants.

Nature and National-Socialism

Many religions and many philosophies do not accept that Nature is alive, or that there is a creative force inherent in Nature. Instead, many religions posit God as the Creator.

National-Socialism, however, accepts as a fundamental principle that this creative force, in Nature, exists and that Nature is a living, changing, being. It further accepts that the evolution of species is one of the most significant ways in which Nature works. This evolution is and has been, toward diversity and difference. Insofar as we ourselves are concerned, Nature has made us a unique species. Within this species, there are various races, which are distinct from each other. Even these races have evolved in different ways and at different times so that there are many distinct sub-races. Thus, Nature has produced, over thousands of millennia, distinct and different races, and within those races produced individuals, of differing character. Fundamentally, National-Socialism is an acceptance and celebration of the difference and diversity that Nature has produced, and it wants to nurture, in an honourable, ethical way, that diversity and difference and so keep alive, and keep evolving, those things which make us unique and 'human'.

We affect Nature because we are Nature made manifest - we are an expression of Nature's change, Nature's evolution. That is, we are a living nexus. We who follow the way of National-Socialism revere Nature because we know, understand or feel how Nature exists in us. Nature exists in us through our folk, our ancestors, and through the Motherland, the homeland, where our folk dwells or where it settles. What lives in us, as Nature, is our culture, our folk, our Motherland; in a special way we are the land of our Motherland, as we are our folk - we are part of the organic, living whole which includes our folk, our land, the soil of the land, the trees growing in the soil, the creatures, the animals, the life, which exits in or upon this land. We even are the climate of our land - the sun, the rain, the clouds, the wind, the changing seasons.

Because of this, we do not fundamentally exist as separate individuals. Our very existence, as

individuals, is bound-up with our folk and our homeland - with our own Blood and Soil. Our folk, our homeland - Nature herself - depends upon us to keep these things going, to keep them healthy, to nurture them and help them grow further. Thus are we born from our folk and our homeland, and thus do we when we die return to them.

Appendix I

The National-Socialist Honour Code The word of a man or woman of honour is their bond - for when a man or woman of honour gives their word ("On my word of honour...") they mean it, since to break one's word is a dishonourable act. An oath of loyalty or allegiance to someone, once sworn by a man or woman of honour ("I swear by my honour that I shall...") can only be ended either: (i) by the man or woman of honour formally asking the person to whom the oath was sworn to release them from that oath, and that person agreeing so to release them; or (ii) by the death of the person to whom the oath was sworn. Anything else is dishonourable. A man or woman of honour is prepared to do their honourable duty by challenging to a duel anyone who impugns their honour or who makes dishonourable accusations against them. Anyone so challenged to a duel who, refusing to publicly and unreservedly apologize, refuses also to accept such a challenge to a duel for whatever reason, is acting dishonourably, and it is right to call such a person a coward and to dismiss as untruthful any accusations such a coward has made. Honour is only satisfied - for the person so accused - if they challenge their accuser to a duel and fight it; the honour of the person who so makes such accusations or who so impugns another person's honour, is only satisfied if they either unreservedly apologize or accept such a challenge and fights such a duel according to the etiquette of duelling. A man or woman of honour may also challenge to a duel and fight in such a duel, a person who has acted dishonourably toward someone whom the man or woman of honour has sworn loyalty or allegiance to or whom they honourably champion. A man or woman of honour always does the duty they have sworn to do, however inconvenient it may be and however dangerous, because it is honourable to do one's duty and dishonourable not to do one's duty. A man or woman of honour is prepared to die - if necessary by their own hand - rather than suffer the indignity of having to do anything dishonourable. A man or woman of honour can only surrender to or admit to defeat by someone who is as dignified and as honourable as they themselves are - that is, they can only entrust themselves under such circumstances to another man or woman of honour who swears to treat their defeated enemy with dignity and honour. A man or woman of honour would prefer to die fighting, or die by their own hand, rather than subject themselves to the indignity of being defeated by someone who is not a man or woman of honour. A man or woman of honour treats others courteously, regardless of their culture, religion, status, and race, and is only disdainful and contemptuous of those who, by their attitude, actions and behaviour, treat they themselves with disrespect or try to personally harm them, or who treat with disrespect or

try to harm those whom the individual man or woman of honour have personally sworn loyalty to or whom they champion. A man or woman of honour, when called upon to act, or when honour bids them act, acts without hesitation provided always that honour is satisfied. A man or woman of honour, in public, is somewhat reserved and controlled and not given to displays of emotion, nor to boasting, preferring as they do deeds to words. A man or woman of honour does not lie, once having sworn on oath ("I swear on my honour that I shall speak the truth...") as they do not steal from others or cheat others for such conduct is dishonourable. A man or woman of honour may use guile or cunning to deceive sworn enemies, and sworn enemies only, provided always that they do not personally benefit from such guile or cunning and provided always that honour is satisfied.

A National-Socialist Glossary

[ Note: What follows are brief explanations of some of the main terms important for an understanding of National-Socialism. Words marked with a * are defined in this Glossary.]

Archetype:

An archetype expresses an *ideal, or is a representation of what is ideal. As such, an archetype represents what is beautiful and harmonious - a striving for excellence - and is possessed of *numinosity. What is archetypal is what is most representative of, or most excellent about, a particular thing.

Aryan:

The term 'Aryan' is used to describe the White or Caucasoid race which originated in Europe. The term itself derives from an ancient Aryan word for 'a noble man' - Airya/Arya and is thus apt to describe this warrior folk.

The Arts of Civilization:

These are Arts, or skills, the acquisition of which makes an individual civilized. Someone who has mastered the Arts of Civilization is thinking, acting and living like an Aryan, since these Arts

embody the essence of the Aryan ethos. The Arts are: the Art of personal Honour; the Art of Combat or fighting; and the Art of Knowledge, of seeking to learn about the vast cultural and scientific heritage of civilizations.

Civilization:

Civilization is an ordered way of living - superior to primitive, selfish, barbarism - created by inventive warrior tribes who uphold the *noble personal values of *honour, loyalty and duty. It arises primarily from co-operation: from individuals being willing to place the welfare, security and future of their folk before their own self-interest.

Fundamentally, civilization depends for its creation and its maintenance on inventive, heroic, honourable individuals. Civilization is the pursuit of, or struggle for, *excellence by a heroic, noble and inventive folk or community who uphold honour and who thus create a society where *freedom is the norm.

Culture:

Culture is the term used to describe those things which can aid an individual to improve or advance themselves, and thus fulfill the potential for change latent within them. Each folk produces its own unique culture, and the distinctive culture of a particular folk embodies or manifests the unique *ethos, or soul/spirit, of that folk.

A culture is a combination of (1) the unique customs, outlook, traditions and achievements of a particular community, group, people or society, with this community, group, people or society sharing a common heritage; and (2) having a certain civilized way of life - the way of manners, reason, fairness, honour, and excellence. Culture is essentially an expression of our humanity - of what makes us human, and different from animals. A cultured person is thus a person who is civilized, and who possesses a sense of identity - who belongs to a particular culture and who lives the way of life of that culture.

Decadence:

Decadence is a decline in or loss of *excellence. Decadence undermines and destroys individual vitality and health, and is basically a placing of self-interest, and self-indulgence, before personal honour and before the duty an individual has - as a thinking, civilized, being - toward striving to continue evolution by pursuing noble ideals.

Decadence, on the individual level, is a lack of character - a lack of will. On the artistic level, decadence is a lack of self-control, a pandering to weakness, a removal of high standards, and it is the philosophy, and the aesthetics, of the pretentious, the weak and the cowardly.

Democracy:

Real or genuine democracy means individual *honour and *freedom - it is an expression of the desire

or will of a living, or organic, community to determine it own future. An organic society is totally different from, and totally opposite to, the lifeless, abstract modern societies created by abstract political or social dogma. Fundamentally, an organic society is an ethnic State.

Contrary to a popular misconception, the Greek word 'demos' does not simply mean 'people' in general. Rather, it originally meant 'the clan' in contrast to their 'chiefs'; in later Attic Greek, the word came to mean 'the community' or folk itself - distinguished as this community was by ties of blood. In both cases, a distinct racial or folk-community is meant.

A real democracy is a society, composed of members of the same race, where the ultimate authority resides in the folk-communities of that society. It is an ethnic nation, or community, where the individuals of that community co-operate together for their own well-being and advancement by upholding the ideals of honour and freedom.

Excellence:

Excellence is what is supreme; what is worthy; what is the best. Excellence is the setting of high-standards and the pursuit of them. It embodies what is archetypal or *ideal. Excellence implies a moving-forward, an evolution or improvement to a higher level, this higher level being set by an ideal or archetype, or some other expression of harmonious perfection.

On the individual level, excellence implies self-discipline and a noble motivation - a striving toward a supra-personal goal or ideal.

The Folk:

A folk is not exactly the same as "a race". A folk arises over time, through living in a certain area - a homeland - through shared experiences, through a common heritage, history and so on. Over time, a specific culture arises, which represents that particular folk, and the folk of this homeland develop a certain character: a certain nature, which in general serves to distinguish them from the peoples of others cultures. This character may be manifest in their way of life, their religious outlook, their literature, their natural music (that is, their "folk music"). Generally, the people of a particular folk community share a common racial ancestry but the living being which is and becomes their folk - their folk culture, their homeland - evolves, changes, and brings into being a new type of life which is different from the life of the other communities who initially may have shared the same racial heritage. Thus, a folk is not an abstract, easily defined, static, "thing" like the concept of race. It is a living, changing, evolving, being - a unique type of life. What defines a folk is thus far more than a certain set of physical or physiological or genetic characteristics. A folk is a symbiotic being - in symbiosis with the being which is the homeland of that folk, with that community or that collection of folkish communities. All this makes the culture, the Way of Life, the ethos (or soul) of that folk living as well. And it is this living which is numinous, which presences the numinous.

Freedom:

Freedom is the basis of the civilized way of living and means an individual having the basic right to determine their own life by choosing allegiance and by being able and willing to physically defend themselves, their own honour and that of their blood-kin. [ Note: The English word 'free' originally meant "to love (and defend) one's kin". ]

Thus freedom means the right to be able to bear and to use arms or weapons in self-defence and in defence of one's own honour and that of one's kin. It further means the right to be able to do this, in accordance with a code of honour, with no one else and no group, Institution or officials, being able to interfere, judge or restrict and take away the liberty of any individual so defending themselves and their honour, whatever the outcome. Thus, were a man to defend his own honour in an honourable way - according to a code of honour - such as, for example, by a duel, or a fair fight, then that man not only has the right to fight such a duel, but also has the right to be at liberty were his opponent to be injured or even killed in such a duel or fight. Anything other than this is un-civilized and tyrannical - a denial of freedom.

Real freedom means individuals of noble character having the ability and the power to determine their own lives in accord with what is noble and dutiful.

Honour:

Honour is the setting of high and *noble standards of personal conduct. The high standards set by honour derive from idealism and thus from the pursuit of excellence.

Honour is the instinct for nobility made conscious, and a code of honour is a means whereby the high standards of honour are set and a means whereby individuals strive to uphold and maintain them. Honour is the basis for the human morality of National-Socialism. It is honour which determines the limits of personal behaviour and our relation to other beings: that is, how we should interact with other beings. Honour also determines the form, the nature, of those things we can use and construct and develop to aid ourselves and others - such as communities. In such useful social constructs, honour sets limits and is the basis for any and all norms, or laws, which may govern such communities.

Honour is a manifestation, or presencing, in the causal, of the numinosity we possess by virtue of being human.

Idea:

An idea is basically a created model for which no natural *archetype exists. Abstract ideas express a concept of what is 'common' - that is, what is not the best; what is not of excellence. An idea is the

exact opposite of an *ideal. Ideals represent and express personal, or individual, character; an idea represents and abstraction which individuals are expected to conform to or be subservient to.

Ideal:

An ideal is something which enshrines what is excellent, or which represents what is the best. It is a practical embodiment of excellence itself; some thing, or some person, distinguished because that thing or that person is the best - for example, the most courageous person in a battle who is distinguished from their comrades by their brave actions.

On the individual level, idealism means individuals undertaking deeds of exceptional merit which mark them out, and doing this because they themselves strive for the excellence of an ideal or ideals.

An ideal stands directly opposed to an abstract idea. Ideals are human - that is, organic; as such they are possessed of *numinosity; they are *archetypal and thus inspiring for individuals. Ideas are abstract, and lifeless - and thus essentially in-human. National-Socialism is based upon human ideals; all modern societies are based upon lifeless abstract ideas.

Justice:

Justice exists in, and only exists in, fair, noble individuals who uphold a code of honour and who strive to live by that code of honour.

Justice does not exist in, and cannot exist in anything abstract, be it in a law, a 'Court of Law', an Institution or whatever. Real justice lives only in individuals and cannot be abstracted out from them into a dead, life-less, abstract form.

A just society is a society which is noble and which allows individuals to test or prove their own honour and innocence - and thus stay free - by trial by combat or by having someone champion them in such a trial.

Nobility:

Nobility refers to personal character - it means having a noble character or nature. Someone who is noble is someone who is honourable - who exhibits those traits of character which represent honour: that is, fairness, heroism, courage, and gallantry.

Honour is the instinct for nobility made conscious, and a code of honour is a means whereby the high standards of honour are set and a means whereby individuals strive to uphold and maintain them.

Numinous:

Something is numinous if it has beauty and awe. Something which is divinely-inspired or divinely-representative is numinous. What is numinous is generally what is revered, or regarded as sacred - as spiritual or divine. Nature herself is numinous - a wonderful, awe-inspiring mystery.

The numinous is an expression of the acausal - of the Unity behind causal, temporal, appearance.

Social Engineering:

Social Engineering is the term used to describe the manipulation and control of people by abstract social/political *ideas. Our modern lifeless, multi-racial societies are the direct product of decades of social engineering, of social/political ideas and abstract doctrines made law.

Way of Life:

A Way of Life enshrines a specific, unique, outlook, view of the world or Weltanschauung and derives from an *ideal or combination of ideals. In addition, a Way of Life is, or develops into, a culture. Thus, by definition, a Way of Life is numinous, and possesses numinosity - an ideology does not. By a unique outlook or view of the world is meant a distinct cosmology and theology - that is, an explanation of the meaning and purpose of our lives, as human beings, and an explanation of our place in the Cosmos, and in Nature (this world where we dwell).

A further distinguishing feature of a Way of Life - in contrast to an ideology - is that it expresses a unifying, holistic, or "organic", view of all life, seeing the Unity hidden by appearance, and strives to make this Unity manifest in a practical way through a particular way of living. In practical terms, this means that a Way of Life does not impose causal apprehension upon what is numinous, or acausal, and this implies no separation, for instance, between what has been termed "the State", and "religion" which words or terms are themselves indicative of causal (that is, un-numinous) apprehension.
