The Sith is the True Salaf, the true way Sufis, the real Jedi – neutral and balanced. The Sith use honest passion and emotion to channel the Force.

We seek power … Continue reading Extremism & The Ego

And that is ‘Everything’ we have ever heard, learned, observed must be questioned within. And nothing must be free from this ruthless self-interrogation, including self-perception, societal teachings, and religion. Allama Nietzsche proposes that we all have the capability to do this, but most do not because we lack the ambition to dig and question and fear being seen as different from society and its herd – mentality.
