my satanic hindu beliefs

So, for the last few weeks I've been trying to make a "pocket guide" to my beliefs so to speak.

It's kind of hard, since there is a ton of complexity and stuff, to put it in as few words as possible but I managed to get it somewhere under 400 words. I guess I'm just wanting feedback... there is a lot of the stuff that my practice actually entails and that I focus on but I tried to put it to the more bare bone foundations, if that makes sense.

Pocket Guide to Jacinda’s Beliefs

Above is the link to it, I don't like that forum posts are locked from edits after so long so I prefer to not post the actual thing here if say 2 weeks from now I wanna tweak something a little bit, and not have an older draft floating around confusing people lol.

Hi Kapalika,

What about you defining the term "satanic" as a start and how you came to having Satan into the whole creation story?

Hi Kapalika,

Defining Satan and the nature of Satan would be a task onto itself. Since the direct symbolism of Satan isn't the whole of my beliefs, I sufficed with the 9 pointed list in the link I gave. I went ahead and bolded it and underlined it in case you missed it (forums won't let me display the url naked for some reason, so it just puts the title of the page)

Edit:

I do touch upon it here however, but it's quite long: My Tantra of Shiva and Satan

In another article, I touch on how Satan is mentioned in point 1 more explicitly:

Rajoguna is known as passion, change. It’s said to be below Sattva but above Tamas, traditionally speaking. In my system I equate Rajas with Satan. Satan In Hebrew שָׂטָן means, in the most basic form, “opposition”. I believe that the nondual essence of all of reality is conflict itself. And what would such a nondual opposition do, but oppose it’s monist state and create duality?

Satan, from what I know, is the bad guy in the Abrahamic faiths.

I am a bit puzzled on how this dude got a religion for himself (satanism) and even get linked with the Hindu religion !

There is an equivalent for Satan in the Hindu religion as Maya. In the Buddhist religion, it is termed as Mara.

But Maya or Mara is considered as the subtle impressions in the unconscious that lead to cravings or aversions, transcending our better judgement. It is not an entity in itself, like Satan.

The Abrahamics state that they intensely hate Satan a lot and blame the dude for their vices and errors.

Satanists largely and mostly do not accept the Abrahamic religions as valid. And he is not at all, in any way, a "bad guy" in Judaism (rather a very necessary angel who is very obedient and loyal to Jehovah).
And if you read the Bible, the truly puzzling thing is how the blood thirsty, genocidal tyrant who Abraham worshiped got his own religion. Satanism, however, isn't big into dogma and is way more "live and let live" than Christianity and Islam. He, along with other figures such as Prometheus, stood against injustice in the face of a dictator, elevated humanity to a whole new level, and are considered heroes.

Very carefully. And with luck at being introduced to an obscure sect of tantra that just so happened to align with my years of divination in such a way that it was like reinventing the wheel, without any knowledge of Hinduism let alone said (somewhat) obscure sect.

That, or divine guidance.

There is an equivalent for Satan in the Hindu religion as Maya. In the Buddhist religion, it is termed as Mara.

Satan, as laid out in point one, is more of the nondual state of the shiva-shakti. It's not as explicit, but Satan is the reason it oscillates between nonduality and duality while still having a nondual essence.

But Maya or Mara is considered as the subtle impressions in the unconscious that lead to cravings or aversions, transcending our better judgement. It is not an entity in itself, like Satan.

My Satanism was pantheist in nature, with polytheistic elements. I never viewed Satan as an entity, at least not "the Satan" but as a force. There are "satans" but not a singular angel / jinn like in Christianity or Islam.

The Abrahamics state that they intensely hate Satan a lot and blame the dude for their vices and errors.

I honestly believe that is because they hate the Universe. Hence the "God of this Word". Maybe it's a thing they picked up from the gnostics, but to them physical = bad. Not so in either Kashmir Shaivism or Satanism. "The way to Shiva is through Shakti" and "Shakti as the divine expression of Shiva" ect ect ect

I guess I'm just wanting feedback...

... i am still confused ... after reading it, i feel kinda like the simple son. but it will be good to google some of the words you used. and personally i'd like to know more about your avatar, if it's not too personal. :)

edit: personally... if it's not too personal... HA. the overhead view was of me in a maze...

Satan ( aka " the accuser " ) is fundamental for the "creation" of "free-will".

? satan ... is ... fun... ?
? satan ... is ... mental... ?

reading is fundamental.

? reading is fun ?
? reading is mental ?

transitive property...

? satan is reading ?

... i am still confused ...

In the Roman Mythology, their prime deity Saturnus is IMO equal to the Satan-figure in the dualistic patriarchal religions which use the Satan figure as the great scapegoat and scare figure in order to rule the populations.

"Lucifer" is interpreted in this link as representing the planet Venus, but this is nonsense. Even though Lucifer refers til the concept of light, this figure has of course nothing to do with the light of any planets at all. When a gendered figure is mentioned in a myth, there is NO WAY a dotted planet can describe a gendered figure.

Both Saturnus and Lucifer represents the stylized contours of the white/light Milky Way figure on the northern hemisphere as described and illustrated here - The Greatest God in Heaven

Saturnus and Lucifer are in the human imagination and perception both natural deities of fertility and of life in general.
