Exactly what I was thinking. There's a lot of speculation about Evola and his alleged involvement in a post-war international movement of "black fascism" centred in Italy. Whether there is anything to that, I don't know, but considering what we know about P2 and Kissinger's (or should I say Lucian's?) alleged involvement in its creation... <br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>We must reawaken to a renewed, spiritualized, bitter feeling (sensazione) for the world, not as a philosophical concept but as something that vibrates in the rhythm of our very blood: a feeling for the world as power, as the agile and free rhythmic dance of Shiva, as a sacrificial act (Veda). This feeling will breed strong, hard, active, solar, Mediterranean beings; beings made up of force and eventually only of force; beings infused with a sense of freedom and nobility whose cosmic perspective (respiro cosmico) has been much stammered about but little understood by Europe's "dead".

Little-known outside Europe, Evola is often cited as the Godfather of contemporary Italian fascism and radical politics. A close examination of the historical record reveals a more complex figure. Evola wore many masks: a parapolitical philosopher who ranked with Oswald Spengler and Arnold Toynbee, a religious historian who coresponded with Mircea Eliade, and a provocateur who dabbled in Dada.<br><br>Born to a Catholic aristocratic family on May 19, 1898, Evola led an extraordinary life as a mountaineer, philosopher, solider, religious historian, artist, magician and political theorist.<br><br>Fluent in French and German, the young Evola was significantly influenced by the virtue theory of German philosopher Friedrich Neitzsche. As an ardent Mountain climber, the young Italian found spiritual invigoration upon the peaks of the Alps. Coming to age on the dawn of the First World War, Evola joined the Italian Army serving in the Mountain Artillery. (...)<br><br>Evola relocated to Vienna, where he found himself translating Masonic documents for Heinrich Himmler's SS, a political and military organization that he had long admired. During an Allied-bombing sweep in 1945, Evola was injured, leaving him in a wheelchair for his remaining life. The Mountaineer was never to climb a peak again, however his ashes were deposited atop Mt. Rosa, upon his death in 1974.

(Nietzsche and the Eternal Return) This voyage to the inner starry heaven by means of "the great ideas, inspiration, ecstasy, poetry," is simultaneously the entrance to the mandala of the inner realm, Shambhala, whose warriors are readying themselves to sally forth from the inner, imaginal world, to conquer the outer world with the sword and to set up the peaceful world dominion of cosmic justice, of which Cathars, Tibetan lamas, and the Persian mystics of illumination dreamed.
