The Ultimate Case of "Riding the Tiger"

 Ιn the material battle, in which technology seems to turn against man with its systematic destruction and its activation of elementary forces, the individual as combatant cannot face it without being blown apart - not only physically but spiritually - unless he passes into a new form of existence.

This form is characterized by two things: first, by an extreme lucidity and objectivity, and second, by a capacity to act and stay upright that is drawn from profound forces, beyond the categories of the individual, of ideals, of values, and of the goals of bourgeois civilization.

What is important here is a natural union of life with risk, beyond the instinct of self-preservation, including situations in which one's own physical destruction is parallel to the attainment of the absolute sense of existence, and actualizes the "absolute person".

We might call this the ultimate case of "riding the tiger".

– Julius Evola, from “Ride the Tiger”

The keen observative skills and superb eloquence of this illustrious thinker never cease to amaze me.

This time it's not just food for thought but a true eye opener to a possibility of opposing a seemingly abstract, large and unopposable foe: the modern world and its destructive effect on the spirit.

Using the many expressions of ruin and dissolution as a means of contemplating the true, untainted and eternal nature of one-Self is the ultimate way of turning these destructive powers upon themselves.

For thus one may become untouchable, immune to the despised destructive forces of this world.

This is also a teaser to the last single to be released before the release of the full-length piece.

This is a song I've never released before on any of my platforms. As usual, it will be released with a video clip on my YouTube channel right here:
