Nazis: Occult Conspiracies

Imagine mythos, ancient sacred symbols and stories of humanity and the power of various states of consciousness being used to uphold ethnocentrism. Imagine great technology and the most cutting edge of science in the hands of a blood tribe. This tribe believes that the blood in their veins makes them direct descendents of gods and all other bloodline in the world must be subjegated or destroyed.  This tribe was known as the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, the Nazis.
 

“I highly recommend that you get a copy of the Discovery Channel documentary video Nazis: The Occult Conspiracy. Hitler and his inner circle… were deeply into the practice of mysticism and mystical stares of consciousness.” Integral Spirituality pg 294

“That’s exactly what you get when you promote horizontal stares and not also vertical stages (particularly in ethics, cognition, and interpersonal perspectives).”

Nazis: The Occult Conspiracy (Part 1) (Part 2)

Lanz von Liebenfels was one of Hitler’s greatest inspirations.  Lanz was a monk in the Cistercian order.

In 1894, Lanz claimed to have been “enlightened” after finding the tombstone of a knight templar, and began developing his theories of “blue-blond aryanism” and “lower races“.

His theological philosophy was base on the divine blood of the master race, the Aryans.  Some believed that they were the dependents of godmen that evacuated Atlantis.
The Nazi’s used occult powers, advanced technology and altered states of consciousness in order to satisfy their goals.  Its amazing to me that people with their minds set on nothing less than world domination and genocide could experience other states on consciousness and still be completely immoral.

Ken Wilber attributes this to the psychological de-evolution of 1940s Germany caused by the take over of ethnocentric extremists:

Auschwitz is rationality hijacked by tribalism, by an ethnocentric mythology of blood and soil and race, rooted in the land, romantic in its dispositions, barbaric in its ethnic cleaning… These are not rational desires by any definition of rational; these are ethnocentric tribalism commandeering the tools of an advanced consciousness and usingg them precisely for the lowest of the lowest motives. Pg 152, Integral Psychology

The history of the Nazi’s (and many other take overs by ethnocentric extremists using altered states) emphasized the important reinforcing the occult phenomenon, altered state of consciousness with some attention given to STAGES of consciousness [psychological mind set and development].  This can be done with psychotherapy, an outside look at the ego and techniques like Integral Life Practice.
