Synthesis of Powers in Ancient States: Ancient states were characterized by the synthesis of temporal and spiritual powers, which spiritualized politics. Neo-paganism, in contrast, risks politicizing spirituality, reversing the true hierarchical order. 2. Nation-Race and Aryan Hierarchy: The concept of the nation-race, when misunderstood, leads to a loss of Aryan hierarchical values. It conflates distinct entities (Judaism, Romanity, Church, etc.) into a homogenized "darkness," obscuring true spiritual distinctions. 3. Super-Race and Empire: The traditional conception of the Reich transcends both destructive internationalism and narrow nationalism. It envisions a "super-race" capable of uniting ethnically distinct groups under a higher spiritual hierarchy. 4. Misinterpretations of Nordic Traditions: The "tragic heroism" and "love of destiny" attributed to Nordic spirituality by some neo-pagan circles are distortions. They reflect the twilight phase of Hyperborean races, not the original solar and heroic essence of Aryan spirituality. 5. Wagner and Romanticism: Wagner’s art and romanticism represent a counterfeit of true Nordic traditions, emphasizing sentimentality and confusion over higher spiritual faculties. This reflects the "darkening of the divine" (ragna-rokkr) rather than the original solar content. 6.

It represents a fall from transcendent spirituality, leading to individualism and cultural decay. 7.
