“You must die completely spiritually. Bury your previous life of belief in a false, vengeful god and in his inhuman commands and prohibitions, and rise from the dead in flesh and blood as you see the reflection of the light of the Son of Dawn”. Biblia Satanae – ASE
Once upon a time, across the sea, in the high mountains, there lived a monk named Chūkai. The monk spent his days praying, meditating and reciting mantras. Once, while meditating and reflecting on the truths of his faith, he came to the realization that the state of divinity was possible to attain while still alive. In order to achieve this, the monk decided to undergo what he considered a necessary ritual, which not everyone could or would dare to undergo. This ritual was to take several years and was divided into 3 stages, lasting 1000 days each. For the first 1,000 days, the monk would actually eat only nuts from the forest, and pray fervently and intone mantras. This was to rid the body of fat, which quickly decomposes after death. During the next thousand days, Chūkai ate only pine bark and roots. In doing so, he lost a lot of weight, while also losing water from his body. His figure began to resemble a skeleton covered with skin. However, he did not forget his prayers and mantras. At the end of the second thousand days, the monk drank a decoction of Urushi juice, which caused vomiting, sweating and urination which further reduced the amount of fluids in his body. Drinking Urushi tea also caused a lot of poison to accumulate in the Chūkai monk’s body, which was supposed to deter worms that wanted to eat the monk’s body after death.
After some time, Chūkai, knowing that he was already close to death, decided that it was high time for the final stage of the ritual. He enclosed himself in a wooden box, which along with him contained bark and roots from trees to eat and a bamboo tube to help him breathe. The crate was also equipped with a bell, which the monk was supposed to ring every day to inform the other monks that he was still alive. The box was then lowered into a stone tomb 3 meters underground where the monk Chūkai was buried.
Chūkai sat there in the box, buried in the lotus position, and never forgot to pray, meditate and recite mantras. When the bell didn’t ring one day, the monks knew that Chūkai had already died. So they unearthed him, then buried him again for three years and three months. When this period passed, the monks unearthed Chūkai again, and when they saw that his body had not decomposed, they already knew that Chūkai had attained divinity. The monks then ceremoniously moved the body of the divine Chūkai to the temple where it remains to this day providing proof of the possibility of attaining enlightenment and a state of divinity while still alive. And thus the humble monk Chūkai passed into immortality.
For some, the monk’s body has become proof of the veracity of their faith; for others, it is a symbol of extreme willpower and self-sacrifice. And Monk Chūkai himself, while it is not known whether he achieved the enlightenment he dreamed and prayed for while he was still breathing with the remnants of his strength, in the event that even one person believed in his divinity at the sight of his mummified body, he proved in an ambiguous way that achieving a state of divinity is possible.
Monk Chūkai, and others like him, because there were others, died a slow and painful death at their own request (I don’t understand why some people think that Jesus, unconscious for 3 days, made the greatest possible sacrifice of all human beings).
These monks who decided to mummify themselves while still alive in order to achieve enlightenment and a state of divinity demonstrated extreme self-sacrifice and willpower.
Chūkai demonstrated in an undoubtedly convincing manner what it means to be faithful to the path he had chosen.
In the book Summa Doctrinae Satanae there is the following passage:
Misanthropy
Misanthropes, by willfully removing themselves from the superstitious world, silence instead of empty talk, depressive solitude, strange dreams and conversation with the unconscious, devote their lives to the glory of themselves and the scorning of the world. They reveal to everyone the inner aspect of depressive satanism, which is a subconscious understanding of the nature of things and the purpose of life. Hidden from the world, the life of the misanthrope is the silent proclamation of the truth of Lucifer, who has rejected the illusory solace of belief in eternal life, because this truth is everything to him. This is what this particular curse is about, to find the glory of the only true eternity in solitude, precisely in the inner struggle. Summa Doctrinae Satanae vv. 776-779
The passage refers to those individuals who experience more strongly than others those strong emotions and feelings more widely considered negative. When read in light of the above parable of the Chūkai monk, its understanding should be more complete. However, understanding is necessary to attain the state of divinity.
He who has ears to hear, let him listen.
Satanism is the way. The authentic one is not an easy way, just like life itself. From this way, paths sometimes diverge. If one follows this way all the time, he may sometimes turn and follow his path. This happens when he recognises which stage of the three thousandths of a day he is on. The path will not end as long as the adept is still breathing with even a remnant of strength. However, the day will surely come when the bell will fall silent. Whether this will happen sooner or later due to the chosen path, he himself will witness it, because at the end one is alone anyway. The important thing is that understanding this path gives one the power to accept the ‘negative’, to use it to strengthen oneself instead of giving up and resigning. Because Satanism is about that. It is the truth about the whole nature of things. Looking only at what is ‘good’ and ‘beautiful’ is an escape into delusion. The power of Satanism is to transform all that is negative into an inner strength that will give the will power to last until the end.
Let the inwardly mummified and scarred body of the Satanist be proof after death of the attainment of Satanic divinity.
Hail Satan!
