A Discordian Primer
Hail Eris!!!!!
All Hail Discordia!!!!!
Hail Yeah!!!!!
Some basic summaries of my feelings on things Philosophical would perhaps best be described in the Discordian Religion, a sort of "Western Zen", specifically honoring the Sacredness of Divine Laughter. Being a lifelong student of the field of Comparative Religion, I feel well qualified in stating that the Discordian Religion is as valid a Spiritual Path as any of the other socially acceptable mega-cults, aka "Religions". The Principia Discordia is a most enLightening read that can easily be done in a single sitting. Not only that, it's not only entertaining and fun, it's True! Here are a few of my own particular highlights from the Principia Discordia that well summarize some of my feelings on "things Religio-Philosophical":
First some great Discordian quotes:
Eris' Message for us:
I have come to tell you that you are free. Many ages ago, My consciousness left man, that he might develop himself. I return to find this development approaching completion, but hindered by fear and by misunderstanding.
You have built for yourselves psychic suits of armor, and clad in them, your vision is restricted, your movements are clumsy and painful, your skin is bruised, and your spirit is broiled in the sun.
I am chaos. I am the substance from which your artists and scientists build rhythms. I am the spirit with which your children and clowns laugh in happy anarchy. I am chaos. I am alive, and I tell you that you are free.
...with this in mind, (they) studied the strange yin-yang. During a Meditation one afternoon, a voice came to them:
It is called the Sacred Chao. I appoint you Keepers of It. Therein you will find anything you like. Speak of Me as Discord, to show contrast to the pentagon. Tell constricted mankind that there are no rules, unless they choose to invent rules. Keep close the words of Syadasti: 'TIS AN ILL WIND THAT BLOWS NO MINDS. And remember that there is no tyranny in the State of Confusion. For further information, consult your pineal gland.
All statements are true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and meaningless in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense, and true and false and meaningless in some sense. A public service clarification by the Sri Syadasti School of Spiritual Wisdom, Wilmette.
"There is Serenity in Chaos. Seek ye the Eye of the Hurricane"
Principia Discordia, p.59
...and concise summaries of often overly complicated issues:
"Sermon on Ethics and Love"
What's Wrong with the World, pt.1
What's Wrong with the World, pt.2
"On Occultism"
One of the all time, best Banishing Rituals ever
To the Paranoids...
"The Chao goes 'Mu'"
"The Secret of the Sacred Chao, the Key to Illumination" (it continues for a few pages...)
"The Key to Salvation"
Thus endeth this TranceMission
Hail Eris!!!!!
All Hail Discordia!!!!!
Hell Yeah, Bitches!!!!!
"Know Thy Selves"
