Every Spiritual Satanist who is versed in this path and has walked it, or came to encounter the very presence and consciousness of the Gods, must know that you will never be alone and that you are creating a friendship with our Gods.
Nowadays, friendships are very weak, fragile, useless, with people relating oftentimes on nothing that is of value, let alone ethical value. Most friendships also have the tendency to "come and go". Falsely, we call many people "friends" nowdays, with nothing to truly warrant for this word.
In all my years in the Joy of Satan I have seen truly what friendship really means. Friendship, as a bond in the soul, with people of a familial bond, that is versed on the same mission, is very strongly present here. The Joy of Satan is a sacred place where all of us who emote with these higher values, can assemble together, read and grow. It is a form of divine community and that should be evident.
This is a place where a "stranger" might help you and will fight alongside you, sign the same hymns as you do, and be a partaker into all the wonderful growth and spiritual empowerment that each of us seeks as an "individual". Yet, this connection shows that all of us are way more than merely "individuals".
Bonds like those of teaching, support, giving and reception, caring and family, even bonds that have to do with our collective warfare, are forming here.
In the "outside world" you might have to impress people with endless lies, or whatever else imaginable. Humanity and it's values are growing weaker by the day, more truly alone.
Of course, I am all for regular socializing with "people" in general, but we must understand that these can only be very small compared to the real bonds that our actions and growth do form with one another here or with the Gods.
Here, anyone who walked closer to the Gods and one's true self that day, has grown stronger and far away from this loneliness and decay of the exterior world. Many people out there are constantly surrounded by other people but filled by a silence that is screaming that one in reality is alone to a deafening extent.
When one's soul opens up and one is at understanding of this, that you are no longer in participation to this loneliness as you brought yourself to the Gods, a giant peace will come upon someone.
Here, one can mostly just come in with their interest of the Gods, willingness to help, and willingness to grow - then one is a partaker in this bond. Our dedication has formed and has been forming for centuries and aeons, friendships with those that came before and those that will come after.
In a sense, we are positioned inside a chain of existence, compared to so many others who just exist alone and for no reason whatsoever in their lives.
I want to thank all of those of you who help, assist, want to learn, who want to promote the Truth of the Gods into the world, those who still allow yourselves to have things of the highest importance and value in your existence, to give for these, to develop for these, to grow in these.
May the Gods keep us always safe and guard us all. May also, our eternal friendship with the Gods, always be in the forefront of our consciousness, our lives, acts and our decisions. May we also grow and expand the JoS and ourselves in high sanctity, as the Gods envision it should be.
