I have an ambition, an ambition to create a one world order where

mankind will evolve into a super-human warrior empire, where man
stop praying to gods, & become like gods.
Follow me my children, I am the way, I am the black plague that will
infect the world with my influence & together we will subjugate this
world.
I am Titus, the creater of the Nephilist ideology & the founder of the
Imperial Brotherhood.
I was born with a vision, a feeling that I have a great destiny. The world
is a depressing place in my time, I feel like I was born in the
wrong era. I wish for the world to turn back to its former beauty, & for
man to rediscover his warrior spirit.
I know now what I must do; I must usher in a new golden aeon &
establish a powerful influential new order.
Follow me! Aid my cause so I can build a glorious new empire!
Spread my teachings, kill those that resist us, kill the heretics, enslave
the weak, no mercy! Only the strong survive!
The problem with the times I am currently living is that even with all of
our knowledge & technology it appears as though we have become
weaker, not so much technologically, but spiritually & perhaps
psychologically. Even with all this knowledge readily available to the
public people refuse or just don't care about it. They are quite happy
ignorantly living as slaves to societies conformities. Secret societies
conspire to indoctrinate the masses to become their mindless robots. Let
the weak waste their lives as slaves, if you're reading this then you
probably have that yearning for something greater in your life. You
desire greater power, you probably want to be the wolf that devours the
sheep, maybe even the lion that leads the wolves.

The sheep have an easy life. They exist on a field of grass and live together in herds. They
might wander a mile in one direction or the other, yet they are contempt at having one
another and only secondarily discovering their surroundings. Thus being the price for the
security of a community. On the other side we recognize the wolf in this example. I will
speak of the first wolf to understand his own existence as to befit my example.
The wolf is born of a different substance. The wolf feels his urge to wander and so he passes
through the land, discovering his environment and searching for others of his kind. The wolf
wanders to the top of a hill and sees a herd of sheep in the valley. He gazes towards the
sheep, noticing how they live in herds and watches them move. He sees how they wander a
mile in one direction or the other and how they eat the grass, always looking down and only
seldom gazing towards each other and thus understands their nature. He decides that they
are something different and wanders closer to investigate them further. After slowly
moving closer, he hesitates once more. For he sees the herd near a pond. He is unsure if it
was merely a light reflection, yet he believes to have seen something strange. He recognizes
another wolf within the depth of the herd. Slightly confused, yet glad to see a member of
his kind he wanders over to the wolf. The sheep grow restless as the wolf comes closer and
the herd opens to reveal the second wolf. The first wolf walks up to the second and
watches the second with his tail between his legs eat the grass as do the sheep.
Greetings, brother, speaks the first of wolves.
The second gazes up, slightly confused and takes a step back, noticing that a wolf has
neared him.
Why do you step back from me, brother? asks the first of wolves.
The second wolf looks slightly confused and speaks, Why do you call me brother, wolf? I
am not like you; I am a sheep like the others.
The first of wolves, with his tail high grows further in his confusion, What do you mean,
brother? You are a wolf. How can you think to be of the sheep?
I was born within the heard, wolf. I have always been a sheep, as my parents
before me, speaks the cowardly wolf.
The first of wolves ponders the situation and his gaze wanders towards the pond, Look
into the water, brother. Then you will see that you are of my kind and not of the
sheep.
The second lowers his head again to continue his meal of grass, I do not need to look into
the water, for I would only see my reflection. The same face I see in the sheep
around me. I do not need to look. I am of the sheep.
And what of the grass you eat, brother? Wouldnt a sheep be more to your liking?
says the first wolf in vain.
The second gazes towards him in fear and speaks with a quavering voice No, he lied, I
have always eaten grass and I know no other. To desire a sheep is against the law.
The first of wolves watches the second as he nervously looks around. The other sheep are
seemingly oblivious to what matters are being discussed here. Yet you have considered

eating one of the sheep, havent you? spoke the first.

The second dropped his tail further with a look of great guilt on his soul, No, I would
never think such a thing. And it would be appreciated if you leave us, for you are
making the herd nervous.
The first of wolves is engulfed by a silent moment of loneliness. Knowing that he is not of
the sheep and has no herd. And knowing that his brother is also not of his kind. The first of
wolves slowly turns, leaving his brother behind, hearing the second of wolves trying himself
in an accord of bah. The other sheep acknowledge this sound, yet the first of wolves
knows, that the second can not communicate with them, no matter how hard he tries.
Only the wolf that acknowledges his existence can understand the self. Lest he be blinded
by his surroundings.

We Nephite's live knowing we are the wolves, while the rest of the herd
of sheep stay within their comfort zone, a slave to their fear.
Read on & absorb this valuable knowledge, for knowledge is power &
this book is the esoteric teacher of the wolf that could one day become
the lion. We are warriors, we thirst for new conquests, glory & we fight
& die bravely!
Valhalla awaits us!

What is Nephilism?
Nephilism is a new age religion. We are atheistic & so do not believe in
or worship any gods. Nephite's worship power, strength & seek greater

knowledge. We worry not about the afterlife, feel sorry for ourselves or
feel any guilt.
A Nephilist is an individual that lives for the advancement of the empire
& themselves. I draw my inspiration for Nephilism from many sources.
Our name comes from a story about beings called 'Watchers' from the
book of Enoch. These 'Watchers' are said to have watched over
Mankind, but some broke the rules & gave Man knowledge of forbidden
things. The Watchers were cast from the heavens to earth as
punishment. The Watchers lusted after Human women & had children
to them, half-breed giants that would never sleep, nor eat & would
ravage the earth. These giants were called Nephilim.
Like the Nephilim we see ourselves as having a piece of a god inside us,
& so we call ourselves Nephilist's, or Nephite's. Nephite's seek to usher in
a one world order, create a super-human race & reign in a golden age
for the new aeon. We desire to stamp out all other religions holding
humanity back so we can evolve & move our species to a higher
consciousness.

Nephite's are dedicated, diciplined & will lay down their life for
the cause.
Nephite's always strive to learn more.
Nephite's do what has to be done, for the greater good.
Nephite's have the spirit of a warrior.
Nephite's work to overcome their weaknesses, not submit to them.
Nephite's execute traitors.

Diabolica

-Do not help someone who has proven themselves a failure in the past.
-Too much freedom is dangerous to those who cannot cope with the
responsibilities that accompany independence.
-The true test of anyones worth as a living creature is how much he
can utilize what he has.
-Each misdirected act of compassion is a waste of energy. (Popularly
expressed by the phrase, No good deed ever goes unpunished.)
-There are many that would take my time. I shun them. There are some
who share my time. I am entertained by them. There a precious few
who contribute to my time. I cherish them.
-Control, religious or political must exist because the populace
demands to be enslaved. Only when it feels sufficiently enslaved can the
dissenters produce their collective grunt. Dissention is a weak form of
assertion. Assertion is a weak form of creation.
-Strive, reach, take. Then you shall not be taken.

The rise of reason &

discontent
Nephilists do not claim to be totally original in our ideas, but rather are
the natural progressive conclusion of society-wide feelings and
concepts. If you watch the music video by Korn: Evolution, you will see
that general IQ is decreasing, especially around the time of the Cultural
Revolution, and has continued to decrease. The counter culture was
brought on by outrage at the government and likely, the falling IQ of
mankind leading to greater and greater global instability. After the fall
of the counter culture the masses went into denial in the 80s
(American Psycho), in the 90s we bargained for a better life by buying
endless numbers of new gadgets and products, and now in the new
millennium we are in depression and anger, as evident with modern
media.
I view Nephilism as the natural outcome of a less and less controlled/
stable world as well as discontent and rebellion. We are pragmatists
motivated to find a solution to the dark path humanity is taking, and
put them on the golden path.

The Windswept Mountain

Every Nephite has a similar level of control that is expected. However,

our emotions, especially nowadays, seem to not only be in control of us,

but are expected to be in control of us. Over time, this becomes a very
hard habit to combat. No wonder that depression is such a rising
modern problem.
Nephilists have a common realization; humanity must be transcended.
Our emotions are a means to an end, not a guide to a means. To focus
our very mind into a weapon, Nephilists perform a simple meditation
to harness and increase their emotions:

Step 1
- Sit in the six- point meditative position.
- Breath meditate until your mind is free of distractions.

Step 2
- Feel the calmness grow more intense as you begin to feel chills.
- Open your minds eye and see that you are sitting on the highest peak
of a mountain.
- Visualize only the ground you sit on. Concentrate. When you fall out
of the vision, leap right back into it.
- When you can see the ground you are sitting on just fine, look up.

Step 3

- The landscape you see around the mountain in its many vegetations
and areas is your emotional makeup. It is you.
- As you look upon the landscape you notice all your emotions attached
to it. Observe them. Be intrigued by them.
- Now, also feel how burning hot the emotions are. They are distant,
and you are cold, but at the same time they are even more intense.

Step 4
- Manipulate these emotions to whatever you wish. Doing this should
be intuitive. Make them more intense. Make them less. Mix them and
create them.
- Focus on your angerthe hot part of the landscapeand increase it.
The more the better.
- Notice that you are still calm.
- Open your eyes.

This meditation is actually more of a trance. It requires some belief and

ease to perform, but is relatively easy, although sometimes energy
consuming. Simply Tao meditate to restore energy. This trance is useful
in changing your moods or controlling them. It also breeds the Nephite
mentality. Which is basically a duality of displaying a passionate typical
human being, and yet being cold and removed on the inside, always in
control, always calculating.

Mythology & Campbell

Mythology is the most ancient form of story told by mankind. Like so
many early inventions, it was formed less as entertainment and more as
a necessity. People needed direction in their life, and they needed an
example, and so life was represented in story form.
Joseph Campbell was the first to draw attention to the power of
mythology, revealing the Universal archetypes in mythology that are
THE SAME, no matter what culture they come from. So, we can see these
archetypes as the greatest of human truths. The ancient conflict
between good and evil is represented by the hero and the villain.

According to Campbell human life is explained by these archetypes and

we should still mold our lives according to these ancient universal reoccurrences in mythology. We should still believe in destiny (but not
fate) and mold our life after the Hero Or the Villain.

Mythological archetypes and the call

to adventure
Campbell explained that the hero (or anti-hero) of the myth goes
through a set of basic transformations regardless of the culture.

1. The Call to Adventure

2. Leaving the Homeland
3. Crossing through of Several Gates to More and More Magical Places
4. Accomplishment of Destiny
5. Ascension to Heaven

The Call to Adventure is when the hero or anti-hero is confronted with

a greater purpose to living than what life is previously expected. The
hero usually resists at first, but later comes around However,
sometimes they refuse and then they die, or worse than death. They live
a comparatively worthless life because of their denial of their destiny.
The Call to Adventure is when the longing of one's soul is explained and
the way to cure that longing for something greater is offered. (Working
towards ones destiny is much more satisfying than the evil artificial
alternative of religion.)
The Call to Adventure is an awakening of the mind, the opening of the
eyes, and the satisfying of the soul and fulfillment.

Knowledge through power; a

disclaimer

This book explains all you need to know in order to survive out in the
jungle and to be a fearsome dominant figure. Some knowledge is
available here for learning on your own, but, for the most part, this can
only be achieved through experience.

Pack control/ Human pack theory

- Humans are pack animals like wolves, each individual battling for
control and to be the alpha male/ female.
-Expressions, tone of voice, and the way one holds ones body, and
confidence are things which make others instinctually see you as in
control or submissive.
- Calm-assertive takes advantage of these traits to get someone to
instinctually submit.
- Confrontations are dealt with, in this sense, by constantly going one
step further than the other, and being able to back it up as well.
- The alpha male/ female enjoys a position in which others desire to
submit to them, but confrontations are constant and must be dealt with
both effectively and in a popular manner.

Power as the only motivator in life

- Every desire a human has is linked to a desire for greater power.

- Every belief a human holds is linked to power. They believe that belief
will give them power.
- Some beliefs are only mistakenly thought to be powerful.

The four goals of the Nephilist

1. Fulfilling our needs
2. Developing an immunity to everyday social, political, religious or

physical obstacles
3. Developing strength
4. Achieving ones destiny (finding your purpose in life, then fulfilling
it)

His fine path to power is determined by two primary guidelines:

1. Does the concept/practice/idea render literal power to the individual?

2. Does it deal with, or can be found in reality or truth?

In addition, some power, although fulfilling these two criteria, block

further power development. For example, chemical abuse can be used
to relieve stress which is real power- however it impedes a person in a
variety of psychological and physical ways, it can get you incarcerated,
and it brings about dependency. Another example would be lack of
submission to ones master. Sure independence and independent
growth are forms of power, however one does not learn the necessary
material or perverts it, and is thus, weak. So, only high power is
employed, low power is avoided because it is a handicap. Therefore
usability, non-exclusion and experience are the three pillars of the
Nephite method. Testing to see if a theory can be used to accurately

further a Nephite.
Finally, a Nephilist avoids waste (also known as the true definition of
evil) and the common conceptions of life. A Nephilist never rushes but
is constantly scheming and planning out of a deep seeded spite; this
spite being a flaw that is capitalized to produce an anger with which
the Nephites personality can be motivated and driven. This revealing in
the darkness puts one in touch with their passion and their strength
and make the shift from humanity to godhood. Therefore this spite
(called human nature) is at the heart of every Nephilist. Which brings
the Nephite to the heart of the Nephilist teachings.
These teachings are invaluable and very important, but there are some
things meant to be learned through experience and not words.
Therefore, the Book Of Gnosis will teach you the ways of Nephilism, but
it will not make you a true Nephite by itself.
There are two ways to learn everything: The way of the armchair
intellectual, and the Nephite way. The way of the armchair intellectual
uses power through knowledge. The Nephite way is knowledge through
power. No one way can be used purely, or you lose information or
value. However, the main way a Nephite gains knowledge is through
power. The intellectual teachings are used in this book for the purpose
of teaching knowledge so as to provide you with the basic powers you
need to learn the greater knowledges through your achieved power.
So, the way of the armchair intellectuals knowledge is used to
jumpstart you on the Nephilist path. This book hosts all the material for
what you need to begin.
The Call to Adventure has been issued to you. Open your eyes and

awaken your mind with the following teachings so that you may use
the Nephite way as soon as possible!

__________________________________________________________

If you seek to aid everyone that suffers in the world, you will only weaken yourself
and weaken them. It is the internal struggles, when fought and won on their own,
that yield the strongest rewards. If you care for others, then dispense with pity and
sacrifice and recognize the value in letting them fight their own battles.

_____________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________

What is it to be a Nephilist?

The cornerstone of a Nephites power is emotion. While Christians

taught that fear, anger, and pain were negative emotions to be
overcome, Nephilists believe that these strong emotions are natural,
and aides individuals in their survival. By harnessing their emotions
rather than suppressing them, Nephilists believe they can achieve true
power. However, Nephites believe strongly that the worthy can control
their emotions and use them, while the weak are ruled by them.
However, not all emotions are embraced by Nephilists. We consider
love a dangerous emotion, but for different reasons. Nephites teach
that love leads to mercy, which is an anathema to us. People could prey
on our love in order to defeat us.

The way of the Nephite is the mantra which states the core beliefs of the
brotherhood. Following the embrace of passion, which is a powerful
aspect of nature, the code explains that the strength granted by passion
leads to power, which then leads to victory. By way of victory,
Nephilists believe they can free themselves from the limitations of
regular beings, and achieve their potential. The breaking of chains
represents the ability to do whatever one wished, but you might say the
true meaning of freedom is the end of all physical restrictions and the
ability to attain perfection.

Thumos
Thumos (also commonly spelled "thymos"; Greek: )
Recovering an understanding of thumos, and its role as the vital life and energy source of
mens souls, will be our task today.
Thumos is hard to describe, but easy to feel coursing through you. Philosopher Allan Bloom
called it the central natural passion in mens souls. In Homer's works, thumos was used to
denote emotions, desire, or an internal urge. Thumos was a permanent possession of living
man, to which his thinking and feeling belonged. When a Homeric hero is under emotional
stress he may externalize his thumos, conversing with it or scolding it.
The ancient Greeks believed that a mans soul or psyche was made up of three parts:
Reason, Appetites, and Thumos. While an understanding of the first two parts of this
tripartite model of the soul remains with us, the concept of thumos has been mostly lost in
our modern day. We tellingly have no word that directly corresponds to it.

The Greeks believed thumos was essential to andreia (manliness) and conceived of it as an
incredibly rich and complex energy. Thumos is a mans life force the passion that gives
spiritedness to the young, and lends freshness and vigor to the old. It is the seat of
emotions, and the emotion itself. The Greeks most associated it with anger, especially a
righteous rage that springs to life when a mans honour, loved ones, or community are
threatened. Thumos fuels the drive of action, ambition, and the desire to fight, as well as a
mans gameness, courage, and ability to stay in the arena once the battle is underway. It
is the fire in the belly that pushes a man to leave behind safety and security, to despise
mediocrity, and to want to excel his fellow men and become the best of the best.

Not only does thumos represent a mans fighting spirit, but also the energy of discernment
and deliberation. It acts as an aid in decision-making and problem-solving. A man ponders
possibilities in his thumos, and in turn, it offers inspiration on what course of action to take.

Because the ancient Greeks thought of thumos as a distinct part of a person, they believed
you could talk to it tell it to endure, to be strong, or to be young. In the Iliad, Achilles
speaks to his great-hearted thumos when anxious about the fate of Patroculus. He also
delights his thumos by playing the lyre.

The Greek philosopher Empedocles called thumos the seat of life. If it left you entirely,
you would faint, and permanent separation meant death.

Thumos likewise constitutes the seat of energy that can fill a person, and serves as the
active agent within man. It is the stimulus, the drive, the juice to action the thing that
makes the blood surge in your veins. Philosopher Sam Keen got at the idea with his concept
of the fire in the belly.

The Romans held a similar belief, equating energy with virtus, or manliness. The whole
glory of virtus, Cicero declared, resides in activity.
What is the nature of this energy and where does it lead? The Greeks saw thumos as serving
several distinct, yet interrelated functions. As with honour, it is a concept that was once so
implicitly understood that it did not have to be explained, and attempting to describe it at a
great remove makes what was once a natural, lived experienced seem much more
complicated. The best we can do is illustrate it from its different angles, and hope that the
pieces resonate and come together into a recognizable mosaic.

The Functions of Thumos

Seat of Emotion
Thumos is both the source of emotion and the emotion itself. The agent and the function
are fused. Thumos births and embodies things like joy, pain, fear, hope, and grief. Thumos is
also tied up with love. The Greeks would say you could love someone out of your thumos.

Thumos is most closely associated, however, with anger. In Greek writings thumos
seethes, rages, and boils. It is a special kind of anger activated when a mans honour
is violated, when his reputation is on the line, when his family and property are threatened.
It drives a man to stand up for himself, for his country, for his loved ones.

The anger of thumos can not only be directed at others and external enemies, but also
towards oneself. Thumos makes you angry at yourself when you fail to live up to your
principles and code of honour. Plato uses the example of a man who sees a pile of corpses,
looks away, and keeps on walking, but then returns to gaze upon it again. He is angry with
himself for giving into a base inclination. Thumos can make you indignant of your own
desires, if those desires compel you to do something contrary to the dictates of Reason.

Drive to fight
Thumos not only produces anger, but then channels that anger into the impulse to fight.
When Nestor, King of Pylos, recalls his past exploits, he says, My hard-enduring heart
[thumos] in its daring drove me to fight. Thumos motivates warriors before and during
combat. The Greeks said courageous soldiers had a valiant thumos during war. In Seven
Against Thebes, it is said that before battle the soldiers iron-lunged thumos, blazing with
valor, breathed out as if from lions glaring with the war-gods might. Valor here is
translated from andreia manliness. The warriors thumos blazes with manliness in
anticipation of the fight.

A man of thumos glories in a fight whether against others, the elements of nature, or his
baser desires as a way to test his mettle and prove himself.

Courage, Steadfastness, Indomitability

Once a man is in a fight, thumos spurs him on, motivating him to stay in the arena and
continue fearlessly striving for victory. This gameness is a quality of thumos man shares
with the beasts. In Sam Sheridans exploration of The Fighters Heart, he observes the
centrality of gameness in dogfighting. We almost dont care how good the dog fights, he
notes, the fight is just an elaborate test to check his gameness. Adds a dog trainer
Sheridan speaks with: Give me a game dog any day, a dog that bites as tissue paper but
keeps coming back and Ill take him.

Fearless indomitability is central to the success of the human warrior as well, who must not
lose heart as the heat of battle intensifies, and his morale flags. To encourage their
respective armies to fight harder in the midst of combat, Ajax and Hector stirred up the
thumos and strength of each of their men.

Plato did not see human gameness as being of the same kind demonstrated by animals,
however. Rather, he argued that mans thumos, at least when properly trained, is born of a
rational type of courage that man is andreios (manly) when his thumos holds fast to the
orders of reason about what he ought or ought not to fear, in spite of pleasure and pain. In
other words, when engaged in a worthy fight, you neither recklessly underestimate real
threats that should be feared, nor overestimate threats that shouldnt be feared, and are
not swayed from your course by either the satisfaction of pursuing blind revenge nor the
fear of being hurt and the love of comfort and luxury. Plato argued that andreia meant
conquering fear and pain of any sort being the kind of man who confronts misfortune in

all cases with steadfast endurance.

Evaluation, Discernment, Decision-Making

So thumos keeps you in a fight that your Reason has decided is indeed a worthy one. But
how do you make that determination?

Plato believed, as Angela Hobbs put it, that courage involves both emotional commitment
and evaluative belief, an intellectual and emotional appreciation of what things are worth
taking risks for and in what circumstances.
Thumos plays a role in both the emotional and evaluative parts of that equation. As we
mentioned last time, the task of Reason as the charioteer is to take stock of his own
desires, and those of his two horses, and then to choose to satisfy only his best and truest
ones those that lead to virtue and arte, or excellence. Reasons ally in this task is his
white horse, or thumos, which can be trained to help make this kind of judgment.

Shirley Sullivan offers examples of this function of thumos in Greek literature:

Thumos is mentioned in connection with several intellectual activities. These include
pondering, thinking, knowing, deliberation, planning and perceiving. Often too a person puts
things into thumos for consideration. Odysseus ponders evils in his thumos for the suitors.
Zeus thinks about events in his thumos as he watches the battle of TroyHermes
deliberates in thumos how to take Priam safely from Achilles camp. Circe tells Odysseus to
plan in his thumos the course he will take after passing the Sirens. Telemachus tells
Penelope that now that he has grown up, he perceives and knows in his thumos good and
evil. It is in thumos that Hesiod tells Perses to consider the value of the competitive spirit.
Thumos is the place in which you ponder possibilities, and at the same time, it helps you
know and understand which of those possibilities to choose. Its related to gut feelings and
intuition what Jeffrey Barnouw calls visceral thinking and it also has a prophetic
quality giving you a sense of foreboding about where a decision may lead, or something
bad to come.

I personally believe you can know a decision is right when both your mind and heart agree
when your Reason and thumos align. When you feel that swelling of the heart, that course
of excitement and inspiration running through your veins, thats thumos telling you youre
on the right course.

Ambition and the Drive for Recognition and Honor

In contrast to the lower desires of the dark horse simply for pleasure and material wealth,
thumos seeks independence over possessions and sensuality, and recognition and honour
over security. Thumos desires pride and prestige for its own sake. This drive for recognition
will motivate him to risk much, even his own life, for his reputation, and also for the
reputation of a group to which he is devoted. Plato calls thumos the ambitious part [of the
soul] and that which is covetous of honour.

Thumos pushes a man to despise mediocrity and to want to excel his fellow men, to
dominate, and be the best of the best. Thumos is ultimately what drives a man to seek
glory, and above all, legacy.

So now we can see that while thumos is often translated today as spiritedness, heart,
passion, will, courage, anger, boldness, or fierceness, it is really a combination of all those
descriptions and yet still something more something that no modern word is able to fully
convey. Perhaps the best and simplest definition Ive come across is energetic thinking that
leads to action.

Harnessing the White Horse

Just like the dark horse of our appetites, the white horse of thumos can be used for either
good or ill. The Greeks called it both dark-faced, vain, terrible, greedy, and pitiless
as well as courageous, noble, kindly, moderate, and strong. Properly harnessed
and guided it has even more potential to lead a man towards eudemonia, or full human
flourishing, than the dark horse, but if allowed to run wild, it can lead a man to destructive
ends. Its up to the charioteer to steer his thumos in a noble path.

Unused Thumos
The charioteer may err by failing to hitch the white horse to the chariot at all, or not
exercising him to build up his strength. The Greeks said that a mans thumos could be
sluggish, and certainly there are a good number of men today who match that
description. A man lacking in thumos is the nice guy who cant stand up for himself when
others push him around. He is placid. Nothing arouses him. He has no ideals for which he
fights and no real drive or ambition in life. He is content with mediocrity, or at least doesnt
have the will to figure out how to make things better. Hes the kind of guy who thinks the
whole idea of manliness is really rather silly and feels he is above the kind of

unenlightened competitions and jockeying for position that occur amongst men, when
really, deep down, hes simply ashamed that he doesnt think he could make the cut and
stand among them.

Unbridled Thumos
A man may also run to the other extreme of failing to rein in his thumos at all. The Greeks
called this yielding to thumos, or letting ones thumos run beyond measure. The
consequences of letting ones white horse run wild vary. When the Greeks used thumos in a
negative sense, it was most often in the context of the emotions, which they thought of as
passions. Being ruled by ones passions could be dangerous if it usurped the role of Reason
and overruled a mans rational faculties.

Of the emotions, anger was the most important to check and channel, and restraining anger
and restraining thumos were closely connected. One type of man with unbridled thumos is
he who wants to fight everyone about everything. The guy at the bar who starts a shoving
match if he simply thinks you looked at him funny. Hes filled with anger, but it has no
specific target its just boiling inside him all the time, and the littlest thing can set it off.
Thumos is much like fire control it and it becomes an enormous power, handle is loosely
and it can burn you and consume everything you touch.

For the Greeks, Achilles was the archetype of a man who yielded too much to his thumos.
Achilles thumos imparts many good qualities to this consummate warrior; he is strong,
brave, aggressive when wronged, driven to success, and nearly invulnerable. But his whitehot anger and concern for honour sometimes lead him to stubbornness and dishonor. The
Iliad describes him as being moved by menos [anger] and overweening thumos, and its first
two lines tellingly read: Sing, Goddess, of the rage of Peleus son Achilles/the accursed rage
that brought great suffering to the Achaeans. When Agamemnon robs Achilles of his war
prize and lover, Briseis, Achilles bristles at this dishonour and refuses to fight or lead his
troops. Before he slays Hector, his nemesis pleads for an honorable burial, but Achilles roars
in reply: my rage, my fury [thumos] would drive me now to hack your flesh away and eat
you raw such agonies you have caused me! He then kills Hector, ties him to a chariot, and
shamefully drags his lifeless body around the gates of Troy. Because of such acts, Ajax says
that Achilles has let his thumos become savage, implacable, and even straightforwardly
bad, and Apollo labels his thumos as arrogant.

The Greeks also warned that unbridled thumos could be foolish and flighty, carrying a
man after one flash of inspiration after another. They were speaking to the second type of
man who leaves his thumos unbridled he who gets a new idea, burns with excitement for
it for a few days or weeks, but doesnt have the drive to keep it going. He quickly gets bored

and moves onto the next thing hes super passionate about. His thumos is always chasing
after one thing or another without clear aim or purpose.

Thumos Under the Sway of the Dark Horse

Besides failing to utilize the white horse, or letting it run wild, an additional problem the
charioteer must avoid is letting his thumos get in-sync with the dark horse, rather than the
other way around.

As youll remember from last time, the white horse, when properly trained, becomes the
ally of the charioteer. Ideally, Reason and thumos work together to pull the rebellious dark
horse in line with their mission and cadence. When there is a conflict between what Reason
knows is right, and what the appetites want to do, thumos springs into action to defend
Reasons aims. But if Reason isnt careful, the dark horse can get the white horse to team up
with it instead.

When this happens, what you get is what well call spirited hedonism something the
Greeks saw young people as especially susceptible to. Thumos feels the desire to do great
things, to be passionate, to take on adventure and risk, and live life to the fullest, but the
dark horse takes this motivation and shunts it off into a narrow and inferior channel the
mere penchant for partying hard. Thumos wants to really live, and the appetites convince
him that nights out getting smashed at the same bars, repeated on an infinite loop, is real
living. Part of this man bemoans the fact that he never really seems to go anywhere or see
anything, but the dark horse quiets that concern, saying he really is living it up, while
encouraging him to get another drink.

Thumos Properly Employed

Thumos, properly trained and harnessed, can be one of mans greatest allies inspiring
and guiding him, stirring him up, and driving and urging him on towards the peaks of
greatness. It can perceive his possibilities and make them real. The Greeks believed that a
man experienced true happiness in thumos.

The way to best make use of thumos is simple: directing it towards its natural aims that
which is noble and fine, honorable and excellent. Plato believed that thumos was made to
fight on behalf of what seems to be just, and the Greeks saw this force of the soul as
essential in making moral choices. In the poetry of Bacchylides, Apollo declares that the way
to delight thumos is by doing holy actsfor this is the highest of gains.

In order to get thumos to pursue noble aims, Plato argued, you had to teach it to respond to
Beauty, Truth, and Goodness. This can be done, I believe, by learning to use, and finely
tuning your innate radar for such things. When you encounter what is Good, you can feel it
resonate in your soul and swell your heart. Interestingly, one of the functions the Greeks
assigned to thumos was the producer of reverent awe. The proof that something is Good
is that it helps make you a better man it bears good fruit. The more your thumos picks up
on these signals, and responds to them, the better it gets at doing so, and as this virtuous
cycle continues, your thumos grows ever stronger and you progress as a man.

Thumos does not simply draw you to that which is good, it inspires you to fight for it.
Thumos natural home is the battlefield. Its most essential nature is that of an aid to
courage, strength, and indomitability for the warrior in combat. But its spur to fight
operates off the battlefield as well. It drives a man to stand up for his ideals, cherished
causes, and moral choices. It also fuels his desire for recognition, honor, and status the
drive to become the best of the best in any arena of competition whether sports,
profession, or even simply life itself. In any situation where you choose not to back down
from your beliefs and goals despite opposition, and refuse to give in when others try to
crush you, thumos is by your side.

Thumos is also what drives a man to fight for a life less ordinary one filled with more risk
and adventure. Thumos is that source of vitality that pushes a man to live life as fully as
possible, to drink deep from it, to choose the strenuous life over self-indulgence and
mediocrity.

Thumos and Technical Skills

In whatever kind of fight a man is engaged, Plato argued that the acquirement of technical
skills mastery can act as a stimulus to courage and an aid to thumos. Training gives a
man confidence that can bolster him in the midst of stress and opposition. For example, the
more a soldier has been trained in and has rigorously practiced the arts of war and defense,
the more he is able to fall back on that training in the heat of the battle, and the less likely
he is to become paralyzed or give up. As Hobbs puts it:
Technical skills on their own will not make for courage; nor can they provide thumos, if
thumos is altogether lacking. They can, however, help bolster thumos and make it more
effectivePlato does not confuse technique with virtue, but he is clear-eyed about the need
to provide the best possible environment for virtue to develop.

Thumos Neutered
Why is it that many men seem so lacking in thumos today?

Thumos is a potent force left wild it destroys, but harnessed it creates. The thumos of
man is responsible for the lions share of societys progress.

Yet in our modern day, instead of helping men to harness their thumos for positive ends,
society has decided it is better to neuter the force altogether. To protect some people from
getting hurt, weve tried to breed it out of men, even if it means its positive effects will be
sacrificed along with the negative. It is like getting rid of electricity, and all the benefits that
have come with it, because some people get electrocuted.

From an early age, boys are taught to sit still, to be quiet. Physical fighting of any kind
results in suspension. Competition is frowned upon because it means some will be left out
and feel bad. Rewards and recognition are distributed equally; everyone is given a prize to
avoid hurt feelings. As a result, boys feel less motivated to fight to rise to the top.

Weve unfortunately come to think of elements of thumos, like anger, as entirely bad.
Instead, what we need is an understanding that anger is neither bad nor good its all in
how its directed. There is such a thing as righteous indignation. The anger that drives one
to stand up for that which is just and right. If you snuff out the force that makes bad men
hurt the weak, you also eliminate the force that moves good men to protect the vulnerable.

Plato argued that you didnt breed fierceness out of men, you trained it. Men of the warrior
class, he argued, should be trained to neither be watchdogs who barked at everything
even innocent noises nor watchdogs that only whimpered and rolled over when
someone invaded the house. They were gentle with those they knew, and fierce with
strangers of ill-intent. Their thumos was ready, if needed, to fight.

Thumos Seeking Role Models

Much of this seems very abstract and it may be hard to see how it applies to your own life.
What can help make it more tangible is observing how thumos has operated in the lives of
other men.

Plato believed that thumos naturally seeks heroic role models. These role models can
inspire thumos, and also, as Hobbs put it, give life shape and structure.

Our own lives can seem like an amorphous stream its just one thing after another. We
see the world through our own eyes, so its hard to get a real perspective on how were
doing and where were at in our journey. Because we can view them as outside observers, it
is much easier to see the shape and structure of the lives of others, especially when you can
read their biography and take in the sweep of their lives from start to finish. Its easy to
identify the different seasons they went through, their rises and falls, the important turning
points. We can see how certain choices they made led to certain outcomes. And we can get
a sense of the kind of things its possible for a man to accomplish and what sorts of aims we
might seek in our own lives.
By studying how other men throughout history succeeded (and failed) to harness their
thumos, we can get a sense of the nature of thumos and how to guide our own white
horse...

Socrates
The importance of physical fitness

Editors Note: In his Memorabilia, Xenophon, a student of Socrates, shares a dialogue

between Socrates and one of Socrates disciples named Epigenes. On noticing his
companion was in poor condition for a young man, the philosopher admonished him
by saying, You look as if you need exercise, Epigenes. To which the young man
replied, Well, Im not an athlete, Socrates. Socrates then offered the following
response.
Just as much as the competitors entered for Olympia. Or do you count the life and
death struggle with their enemies, upon which, it may be, the Athenians will enter,

but a small thing? Why, many, thanks to their bad condition, lose their life in the
perils of war or save it disgracefully: many, just for this same cause, are taken
prisoners, and then either pass the rest of their days, perhaps, in slavery of the
hardest kind, or, after meeting with cruel sufferings and paying, sometimes, more
than they have, live on, destitute and in misery. Many, again, by their bodily
weakness earn infamy, being thought cowards. Or do you despise these, the rewards
of bad condition, and think that you can easily endure such things? And yet I
suppose that what has to be borne by anyone who takes care to keep his body in
good condition is far lighter and far pleasanter than these things. Or is it that you
think bad condition healthier and generally more serviceable than good, or do you
despise the effects of good condition? And yet the results of physical fitness are the
direct opposite of those that follow from unfitness. The fit are healthy and strong;
and many, as a consequence, save themselves decorously on the battle-field and
escape all the dangers of war; many help friends and do good to their country and
for this cause earn gratitude; get great glory and gain very high honors, and for this
cause live henceforth a pleasanter and better life, and leave to their children better
means of winning a livelihood.

I tell you, because military training is not publicly recognized by the state, you must
not make that an excuse for being a whit less careful in attending to it yourself. For
you may rest assured that there is no kind of struggle, apart from war, and no
undertaking in which you will be worse off by keeping your body in better fettle. For
in everything that men do the body is useful; and in all uses of the body it is of great
importance to be in as high a state of physical efficiency as possible. Why, even in
the process of thinking, in which the use of the body seems to be reduced to a
minimum, it is matter of common knowledge that grave mistakes may often be
traced to bad health. And because the body is in a bad condition, loss of memory,
depression, discontent, insanity often assail the mind so violently as to drive
whatever knowledge it contains clean out of it. But a sound and healthy body is a
strong protection to a man, and at least there is no danger then of such a calamity
happening to him through physical weakness: on the contrary, it is likely that his
sound condition will serve to produce effects the opposite of those that arise from
bad condition. And surely a man of sense would submit to anything to obtain the
effects that are the opposite of those mentioned in my list.

Besides, it is a disgrace to grow old through sheer carelessness before seeing what
manner of man you may become by developing your bodily strength and beauty to
their highest limit. But you cannot see that, if you are careless; for it will not come of
its own accord.

The Nephite Gospels

I discourage followers of Nephilism to ingest drugs or alcohol. It
impairs our abilities & makes us weak. Part of being a Nephite is
exercising self-control & maintaining dicipline. We strive for perfection
& staying strong requires us to stick to a proper diet.
The life of a Nephite is tough, but it's the hard life that mould those that
live it into hardened warriors.

Below I have laid out the laws of this ideology & the way in which
children born under our order must be processed:
All boys must be taken from their families at the age of seven & attend a military
school until the age of twelve to learn:

Nephilism.

Maths.

English.

Design & Technology.

Martial Arts/ Fitness.

Geography.

Science.

History.

Any showing weakness must be discarded into slavery. The rest showing outstanding
intellect, toughness & bravery by the age of twelve must be re-located to a military
academy until the age of eighteen to learn:

Leadership.

S.E.R.E. (Survival, Evasion, Resistance & Escape)

Improvisation.

Military Tactics.

Guerrilla Warfare.

Martial Arts/ Fitness/ Conditioning/ Pain Tolerance.

Espionage, Infiltration, Subterfuge etc.

The Way of the Warrior: (Hagakure by Yamamoto Tsunetomo, Buke Monogatari

by Umawatari Bogyu, True Path of the Ninja by Antony Cummins & Yoshie Minami, the
Art of War by Sun Tzu).

o All Nephite's must know martial arts.

o Nephite's can challenge another to a duel to the death.
(Given that they both mutually sign an agreement to the duel beforehand.)

o Nephite's have the right to bear small arms & blades.

o Nephite's have the right to polygamy

o Women cannot seek employment.

(Some privileged females can be raised as warriors)

o Women must be educated differently to men & learn housekeeping, raising a

family, how to grow & maintain a vegetable garden, farming, cooking,
repairs etc.
o Women can learn martial arts.

o Drug addicts must be forced into slave labor until rehabilitated.

o Newborns with debilitating physical disabilities must be destroyed.
(Healthy grotesque newborns should be kept alive & raised in the Brood to become Orcs.)
o Weak & retarded humans should be discarded to become a Thrall (A subhuman slave.)
o Rapists & murderers must fight in the gladiator arena.
(13 wins would secure the perpetrators freedom)
o Useless elderly must be euthanized.
o Rebellious individuals must be publicly executed.
o Thieves must be whipped & enslaved indefinitely.
o Irresponsible parents must be publicly whipped, branded on the forehead &
have their children confiscated to be put into military school.

Trials of the Imperial

rotherhood
Blood in, blood out

To be officially accepted into the Imperial Brotherhood you must prove your loyalty.
This is done by running errands, from getting members drinks to collecting owed
debts. You could be doing this for months to years depending on how dedicated we
think you are to our organization.
When we believe you are loyal enough you will move on to the initiation.
You will have to take a life to prove your full dedication to our organization. This is
called 'Blood In'.
After you have completed this test, you will then attend a ceremony & take the oath
of the Imperial Brotherhood, after which you will be an official full blooded member
of the order & will be relocated where we believe you will be most needed.
Remember, being apart of our order means leaving behind your old life &
embracing the life of the brotherhood. By joining us you agree to dedicate the rest of
your life to serving the Overlord & the Imperial Brotherhood.
There is only one way out if you no longer wish to be apart of our order, & that is
death. This is called 'Blood Out'. It is too dangerous for us to let full blooded members
leave with our secrets. When you join us, it is to the DEATH...

Imperial

rotherhood Oath

In the rite, the initiate brothers & sisters enter a Nephite temple, under
the guidance & instruction of a Nephite priest. After an introductory
speech each member recites a list of their prestigious relatives & lineage.
After the brothers-to-be had listed all their various relations, they recite
in unison a pledge to accept the Imperial Brotherhood as their new
family.

Following the list of relations, they recite the oath of the Imperial
Brotherhood:

"I name swear to defend the interests of the Imperial Brotherhood!

I swear on my life to never betray the brotherhood!
I swear to leave behind my old life to pursue the order's future glories!
I swear to donate all my assets to the empire!
And I swear to honor my new family, and to fight to the death!"

Following recitation of the oath, the initiates cut their palms saying:
(Now I embrace my new brothers and sisters. Hail!)
Then they drip their blood over a fire, after which they officially become
blood brothers. The rite is followed by a feast attended by all members.

_____________________________________________________________________

Missions required of followers

The main mission for which the Imperial Brotherhood is responsible is:
The overthrow of all whom resist us, the destruction of religion & the formation of a
one world imperial regime. Other missions consist of the following:

Gathering information about the enemy, the land, the

installations & the neighbours.
Kidnapping enemy personnel.
Stealing documents, secrets & arms.
Assassinating enemy personnel, government officials &
politicians.
Freeing brothers captured by the enemy.
Blasting & destroying government buildings, military bases,

heretic places of worship, vital economic centres.

Necessary qualifications for the organizations

members

Commitment to the organizations ideology.

Maturity.
(The requirements of military work are numerous & a minor cannot perform them. The nature of hard &
continuous in dangerous conditions requires a great deal of physical, psychological & intellectual
fitness.)

Sacrifice
(The member must be willing to undergo martyrdom to avoid capture & such.)

Listening & obedience

(Also known as discipline. It is expressed by how the member obeys the orders given to him.)

Keeping secrets & concealing information

(Secrecy should be used even with the closest of people, for deceiving the enemy is not easy.)

Healthy
Patience
(The member should have plenty of patience for enduring afflictions if they are overcome by the enemy.
They should not abandon their great path & sell themselves & the Imperial Brotherhood to the enemy for
their freedom. They should be patient in performing the work, even if it lasts a long time.)

Calm & cold

(The member should have a calm demeanour that allows them to endure psychological traumas such as
bloodshed, murder, imprisonment, reverse psychology & killing one or all of the organizations
comrades. They should be able to carry out the work.)

 Intelligence & insight

Caution & prudence
(In his battle against the king of Tomedia, the Roman general Speer sent an emissary to discuss with that
king the matter of a truce between the two armies. In reality, he had sent him to learn about the
Tomedians ability to fight. The general picked Lilius, one of his top commanders, for that task & sent
with him some of his officers disguised as slaves. During that mission, one of the kings officers, Sifax,
pointed to one of the disguised slaves & yells That slave is a Roman officer I had met in a neighbouring
city. He was wearing a Roman uniform. At that point Lilius used a clever trick & managed to divert the
attention of the Tomedians from that by turning to the disguised officer & slapping him on the face a
number of times. He reprimanded him for wearing a Roman officers uniform when he was a slave & for
claiming a status that he did not deserve. The officer accepted the slaps quietly. He bowed his head in
humility & shame, as slaves do. Thus, Sifaxs men thought that officer was really a slave because they
could not imagine a Roman officer would accept these hits without defending himself. King Sifax
prepared a big feast for Lilius & his entourage & placed them in a house far away from his camp so they
could not learn about his fortifications. The Romans made another clever trick on top of the first one.
They freed one of their horses & started chasing him in & around the camp. After they learned about the
extent of the fortifications they caught the horse &, as planned, managed to abort the mission about the
truce agreement. Shortly after their return, the Roman general attacked king Sifax camp & burned the
fortifications. Sifax was forced to seek reconciliation.)

Ability to observe & analyse

(The Israeli Mossad received news that some Palestinians were going to attack an Israeli El Al airplane.
That plane was going to Rome with Golda Meir, the Prime Minister at the time, on board. The
Palestinians had managed to use a clever trick that allowed them to wait for the arrival of the plane
without being questioned by anyone. They had beaten a man who sold potatoes, kidnapped, and hidden
him. They made two holes in the top of that peddlers cart and placed two tubes next to the chimney
through which two Russian made Strella missiles could be launched. The Mossad officers travelled the
airport back and forth looking for that lead to the Palestinians. One officer passed the potato cart twice
without noticing anything. On his third time, he noticed three chimneys, but only one of them was
working with spoke coming out of it. He quickly steered toward the cart and hit it hard. The cart
overturned, and the Palestinians were captured.)

The ability to act, change positions & conceal oneself

(An example is what Noaim Ibn Masoud had done in his mission to cause agitation among the tribes of
Koraish, those of Ghatfan, and the Jews of Koreitha. He would control his reactions and managed to
skilfully play his role. Without showing signs of inconsistency, he would show his interest and zeal
towards the Jews one time and show his concern about the Koraish at another.
Another example in 1960. A car driven by an American colonel collided with a truck. The colonel lost
consciousness, and while unconscious at the hospital, he started speaking Russian fluently. It was later
discovered that the colonel was a Soviet spy who was planted in the United States. He had fought in
Korea in order to conceal his true identity and to gather information and critical secrets. If not for the

collision, no one would have suspected or confronted him. This story is found in the book An Tarik AlKhida By Way of Deception Methods, by Victor Ostrovsky.)

Financial security precautions

Dividing operational funds into two parts

(One part is to be invested in projects that offer financial return, and the other is to be saved and not
spent except during operations.)

Not placing operational funds [all] in one place

Not revealing the location of funds to organization members
Proper protection when carrying large amounts of money

Forged Documents (Identity Cards, Records Books,

Passports)

The following security precautions should be taken:

Keeping the passport in a safe place so it would not be seized by

the security apparatus, and the brother it belongs to would have
to negotiate its return Ill give you your passport if you give me
information.

All documents of undercover members, such as identity cards

& passports should be falsified.

Undercover agents traveling with certain identity cards or
passports should know all pertinent information such as the
name, profession, and place of residence.
The undercover member who has special work status
(commander, communication link, ...) should have more than one
identity card and passport. He should learn the contents of each,
the nature of the indicated profession, and the dialect of the
residence area listed in the document.
When using an identity document in different names, no more
than one such document should be carried at one time.
The validity of the falsified travel documents should always be
confirmed. All falsification matters should be carried out through
the command and not haphazardly. (procedure control)
Married brothers should not add their wives to their passports.
When a brother is carrying the forged passport of a certain
country, he should not travel to that country. It is easy to detect
forgery at the airport, and the dialect of the brother is different
from that of the people from that country.

Organization MILITARY BASES

Definition of Bases

These are apartments, safe houses, command centres, etc. in

which secret operations are executed against the enemy. These
bases may be in cities, and are [then] called homes or apartments.
They may be in mountainous, harsh terrain far from the enemy,
and are [then] called safe houses or bases.
During the initial stages, the Military Organization usually uses
apartments in cities as places for launching assigned missions,
such as collecting information, observing members of the ruling
regime, etc.
Safe houses and bases in mountains and harsh terrain are used at
later stages, from which groups are dispatched to execute
assassination operations of enemy individuals, bomb their
centres, and capture their weapons. In some countries where
there are no mountains or harsh terrain, we would have to
operate in cities.
