I suppose all this could be placed under the heading, "what a minefield occult study can be." I recently read Goodrick-Clarke's "The Occult Roots of Nazism," and am about halfway through his follow up book, "Black Sun." This seems like such familiar territory: Blavatsky, Steiner, Spengler are all present, along with others that I'd never heard of. One such is James Parker Yockey. I'm somewhat intrigued by the mention of Yockey's book "Imperium"; it's Yockey's take on Spengler(?) I also keep thinking back to Max Heindel's "The Rosicrucian Cosmo Connection." On my second or third pass through it I made a little index of where he mentions the "lower races" on one hand, and "sixteen possibilities for destruction" on the other. It was common enough to speak of "lower races" back when Heindel was writing, so that's not too shocking. I take "sixteen possibilities for destruction" to refer to racism -- as a caution against it. If anyone is interested, my mini-index has the following entries: p. 65,66,76,230,235,289-91,304,340,447, and 231, 306,312-316, 401, and 360 and 495.

Is there a question in this? I'm sure that this all raises plenty of questions, at least for me, but my question here is simply, "do you care to comment"? It's a minefield, for sure.
