Meta Foreword: Evil Pride
The Nine Demonic Gatekeepers saga has required more than three full years to complete. The most pioneering black magician of his generation, E.A. Koetting, performed a three-month pathworking with every one of the nine demonic gods, thus performing 27 months of ritual pathworking, and allowing himself a month of healing between every spirit, over a sum of 36 months. He recorded his live possession and gnosis from these rituals on camera, and has translated his pioneering discoveries and experiences into nine grimoires, The Grimoires of the Nine Demonic Gatekeepers. Over 20 innovative authors on black magick and demonology participated too, consolidating their collective knowledge and experiences with the demons into group grimoires or compendiums, called The Compendiums of the Nine Demonic Gatekeepers.
E.A. penned a new grimoire with every spirit during their respective three months together, and I penned a new foreword to each of his nine grimoires. Thus, he and I would author a combined 30,000-40,000 words every four months; this by itself deserves recognition as unique within magick history, and clarifies in advance why the forewords overlap in their topics, frequently emphasize related points, and quote one another as references. Moreover, the reader can see a clear evolution and strengthening in my lines of reasoning in this doctrine over the course of the three years; in this sense, this group of forewords entails a living body of ideas. The reader, you, literally watches the author, me, evolve throughout the authorship. Lastly, E.A. released his live ritual recordings in video courses to allow other hardcore magicians to study his magick performances.
Normally, a foreword features a supporting author who gives a helpful introduction, context, or pretext to the subject matter of the primary author. My forewords illuminate the truths of the Left Hand Path in an unprecedented manner, and give world-historical context to the Nine Demonic Gatekeepers as E.A. and allies have channeled them. As the reader will discover in these dissertations, a global elite ruling class emerged during the last two millennia of fascist right-hand theocratic reign worldwide, and these abominable tyrants have maliciously censored and persecuted the meta-ethnicity of the Left Hand Path through demonization and genocide of natural magical paganism. No less than six politically engineered monistic empires rose to power and conquered the world within a narrow period on the full human evolutionary timeline at the dawn of the Common Era, circa 1000 BCE to 1000 CE: Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam. This new, imperialist, colonial wave of authoritarian patriarchies committed deicide (murder of a deity) against the goddess, i.e., they murdered the earth-river-moon goddess pantheon to enthrone a solar male god as the totalitarian monarch of a one-deity pantheon, and prohibited women from the priesthood to enforce a male-only hierarchy. To add insult to injury, authors of the Abrahamic and Brahmanic mythologies demonized the reigning mother earth goddess and her classic snake magic (ophiolatry) as devilry and sorcery, thereby diabolizing her into a main antagonist and zoomorphizing her into a reptile in the forms of a serpent and dragon, named Satan “Adversary” in Hebrew.
The last two millennia of rigid synthetic monotheism have utterly wasted the deific power of humans that had given birth to ancient magical spirituality in the first place. The politically engineered totalitarianism of monotheism has deadened the human soul spiritually, restricted the species intellectually, and ruined the natural liberty and mutual equality of men and women socially. These nine forewords unmask not only the horrific legacy of world-historic evil bred through monotheism, but it reveals the true meaning and historical rise of the Left Hand Path out of the hardcore sex and death cults of medieval goddess-supremacist Tantra, and smashes the invisible ball and chain around the ankle of the human race.
I have come out of the closet, i.e., I champion the adversarial and antinomian cause openly, thus the theocratic enemies of truth and freedom demonize this doctrine as “evil” and “Satanic,” as they did with innocent magical paganism and indigenous heathenry. It is not an exaggeration to declare the ambition to become a living god as the worst possible evil to a monotheist, because it not only abolishes worship of their external god, but it empowers you to become the commander-in-chief of your life. If disobeying god is evil, then becoming your own god is truly the worst evil.
Homo sapiens naturally evolved the fundamental concept of spirituality in the prefrontal cortex of the brain over hundreds of thousands of years. As such, humans possess a natural biological tendency to evolve toward godhood ultimately. My all-time favorite philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche, called it the cosmic “will to power.” The ideal of self-deification defines humans as humans uniquely, in contrast to every other species of animal and life form known in the physical universe. As my favorite existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre pointed out, “Man is the being whose project is to be God.”
Dear reader, you will discover across these dissertations that black witches and magicians need to become proud of their “evil,” because the elite ruling class of humanity has inverted the highest good into the worst evil. Sorcerers need to wear the scarlet letter of the Apocalypse and Antichrist on their chests happily, because the more the elite tyrants demonize black magick, the higher black magicians ascend—the antagonism of cycling opposites acting as the cosmic motor of ascent. Black magicians need to finally come out of the closet to reclaim their individuality, freedom, and power as an united pantheon of gods and goddesses in eternal ascent.
