To Presence The Dark

[from  http://www.satanism.net/iss/ona/presence_dark.html ]

Subject: To Presence The Dark
   ONA, 107yf
   
       Genuine Satanic, or Sinister, groups have three fundamental
   aims: (1) to preserve and hand-on the genuine esoteric tradition,
   the Way to Adeptship and beyond; (2) to uphold and implement the
   Sinister Dialectic; and (3) to presence and so make real what is
   dark, sinister and Satanic.
   
       The first aim is essentially the guiding of Initiates toward
   wisdom, thus changing those individuals - in effect, creating a
   new individual. The second aim is essentially supra-personal and
   is a changing of societies, civilizations and Aeons, through
   magick and through practical action. The third aim derives from
   the first two aims, and is essentially genuine Satanism in action
   "in the world" - that is, Satanic individuals doing specific
   Satanic acts to bring about change and evolution in themselves,
   and in the societies, civilisation or Aeon they themselves exist
   in.
   
       It is of fundamental importance - to evolution both
   individual and otherwise - that what is Dark, Sinister or Satanic
   is made real in a practical way, over and over again. That is,
   that what is dangerous, awesome, numinous, tragic, deadly,
   terrible, terrifying and beyond the power of ordinary mortals,
   laws or governments to control is made manifest. In effect,
   non-Initiates (and even Initiates) need constantly reminding that
   such things still exist; they need constantly to be brought
   "face-to-face", and touched, with what is, or appears to be,
   inexplicable, uncontrollable, powerful and "evil". They need
   reminding of their own mortality - of the unforeseen,
   inexplicable "powers of Fate", of the powerful force of "Nature".
   
       If this means killing, wars, suffering, sacrifice, terror,
   disease. tragedy and disruption, then such things must be - for
   it is one of the duties of a Satanic Initiate to so presence the
   dark, and prepare the way for, or initiate, the change and
   evolution which always result from such things. Such things as
   these must be, and always will be, because the majority of people
   are or will remain, inert and sub-human unless changed. The
   majority is - and always will be until it evolves to become
   something else - raw material to be used, moulded, cut-away and
   shaped to create what must be. There is no such thing's an
   innocent person because everyone who exists is part of the whole,
   the change, the evolution, the presencing of life itself, which
   is beyond them, and their life only has meaning through the
   change, development and evolution of life. Their importance is
   what they can become, or what can be achieved through their
   death. their tragedy, their living - their importance does not
   lie in their individual happiness or their individual desires or
   whatever.
   
       Thus it is permissible, and indeed necessary, for Satanic
   Initiates to exalt themselves, and thus life itself, over and
   above the majority, and at the expense of the majority - for such
   Initiates are a becoming, a movement of life toward something
   higher, while the majority are a stasis unless changed or
   provoked. In essence, Satan is the essence of life itself; He is
   this exaltation of life - this change, this evolution, just as
   the Satanic Initiate is Satan presenced in human form.
   
       Genuine Satanism means such a presencing of the dark, and a
   genuine Satanic group is a group which initiates, authorises or
   guides its members toward individual and group acts which so
   presence the dark When there is no such presencing of what is
   dark, terrible, awesome, magickal, deadly and tragic then there
   is no genuine Satanism. Thus, a genuine group will countenance
   and indeed demand human sacrifice, as it will countenance and
   indeed demand that its members do practical and magickal works to
   aid the Sinister Dialectic itself, bringing thus the chaos and
   the order of change and evolution.
