I: Creating Our Homeland

For our race to have a future - for us to live in freedom again according to our natural and healthy customs - we must create our own Aryan homeland, where we Aryans can live only among our own kind. That is, we Aryans must found a new fatherland for ourselves and in that fatherland create a new type of society whose laws are Aryan laws - based upon our own unique Aryan customs. The ethics of this new Aryan society must be our own Aryan ethics - that is, based upon personal honour, loyalty, and duty to the fatherland.

The aim of this society must be in accord with our special and unique Aryan Destiny as all the Public, or Civic, Institutions of this new Aryan nation must be founded upon these Aryan ethics.

In brief, this new society would be a National-Socialist society which strove to put into practice the noble principles and the noble ideals of National-Socialism.
 

It is possible to create this new Aryan nation in three ways. First, it could be created in an existing nation-State by National-Socialists obtaining State power through a political movement by either gaining electoral support, or though using revolutionary tactics, and then changing that State through a National-Socialist revolution. Second, it could be created through founding a new colony, a folk-community, which forms the basis of a new Aryan society. Third, it could be created in an existing nation-State through a gradual religious conversion of a significant number of people.

We should use all three of these ways to try and obtain the Aryan nation we need. These three ways, in fact, represent the three basic types of Aryan character⁽¹⁾. The political and revolutionary way, for example, is suitable to the warrior-type - for this way is the way of war against an evil tyranny: a practical fight for freedom and for justice. The way of a colony, or of a community, is suitable for those whose character is more inclined toward exploration and the overcoming of practical challenges such as those involved in cultivating the soil. The way of religious conversion is suitable for those whose basic character is inclined toward spiritual matters.

All three ways of achieving our aim of a new Aryan homeland are necessary if we are to free ourselves from the tyranny we now endure, and ideally there should be three separate organizations each striving to achieve their own goals but each co-operating with each other for their mutual benefit and for the benefit of our noble Aryan cause. No particular way is more valid, or more correct, or more necessary than any other. For the three ways are akin to three different parts of the same Army on a battlefield, facing the common enemy, each part with their own strengths and their own method of fighting. It is the concerted attack on the enemy by these three combined forces which will win the battle - for, strong as the enemy is, they are vulnerable to such a three-pronged attack. Like the classic 'pincer movement' of ancient battles we can by this three-fold attack successfully engage and defeat our enemies.
 

The Spiritual Way

Reichsfolk, as a religious organization, aims to try and create the homeland we need through converting people to the National-Socialist way of life and imbuing them with a noble vision, the idealism and the personal character necessary to make that vision real.

That is, the way of Reichsfolk is the spiritual way and this involves individuals upholding in their personal lives the ethic of honour. This means that in everything they do, they must be guided by what is the honourable thing to do. They must endeavour to set an example for others to admire and follow, and try by their personal behaviour and their personal attitude to show others the moral superiority of their spiritual beliefs.

It is necessary to state what this spiritual way involves in practical terms which are not open to mis-interpretation, for there has been a great deal of mis-understanding of what this spiritual way actually entails.

This spiritual way, by its nature, does not involve strident rhetoric as it does not involve 'hating' enemies, engaging in overt political activities (such as demonstrations) or inciting others to commit aggressive acts. The means which Reichsfolk as an organization employs to achieve its aims are and must be ethical, constructive and generally peaceful, for the fundamental tactic is to convert others to the noble idealism and Aryan ethics of National-Socialism through personal contact and by personal example.

The same applies to those individuals who follow or seek to follow the spiritual way - for the means and tactics of this spiritual way are and must always be very different from the means and tactics of the other ways, such as the political and revolutionary ways - if they were not, they would not be spiritual!

Thus, those who belong to a spiritual organization such as Reichsfolk, and those who are following the spiritual way, must uphold the personal Code of Honour. Honour means, for instance, that they must treat other individuals fairly, gallantly and with courtesy, regardless of the race of the individual. If they do not do such things, they are not behaving in an honourable way. Honour also means that they are honest and truthful in their dealings with others.

Furthermore, those who are following the spiritual way must also strive to cultivate the faculty of reason and, through their Aryan Culture, seek to enlighten and advance themselves and their folk. For it is this striving by individuals for honour and this striving for advancement and enlightenment (or, more correctly, for wisdom) which is the noble quest for individual excellence in action. And such a quest for excellence (the 'arete' of the ancient Greeks) is spirituality made real in this world.
 
 

II: A New Struggle for Existence
 

National-Socialism affirms the fundamental fact of Nature that a civilization itself - just as much as individuals - must struggle for or strive to pursue excellence. That is, to survive and flourish, it must continue to accept and overcome challenges, and it must expand. Unless it does, it becomes weak, inward-turning - its people losing the sense of Destiny, the excellence, which gave the impetus to the civilization in the first place.

However, in the past, civilizations expanded through Empires - through conquest and subjugation of other peoples. Eventually, in all civilizations, these Empires and the civilization which had created them, declined and fell - vigour, nobility and racial homogeneity declined and were lost. That is, the natural life-span of civilization was limited, usually to one and a half thousand years - basically because all past civilizations were instinctive creations. The causes of their genesis, of their maintenance and fall, were not fully understood.

With the making-conscious, the understanding, of the factors necessary to civilization, it is possible that this decline and fall can be prevented - provided those things essential to the survival and expansion of the civilization are upheld. These things, of course, are enshrined in National-Socialism. They are (1) the recognition of the importance of race: the affirmation of Aryan Destiny; (2) the importance of individual personality or character; and (3) the pursuit of excellence - the value of noble idealism in creating better people, in continuing the work of Nature. Thus, it might seem possible, given the creation of a National-Socialist New Order, that an Empire could be created and maintained - that the life-span of the civilization which that New Order would found could be extended, possibly indefinitely.

This, of course, is not so - on a finite, small, world, the resources are limited; conquest and challenges are limited. This planet no longer seems, due to modern Technology, a large place - the horizons are limited and quickly attained. A world Empire - based on a dominant, racially-aware, noble, folk, is certainly feasible. But what then? What is there once that limited goal had been achieved? There is only the interminable struggle to maintain dominance - the goal becomes simply one of domination, of subjection. The inevitable consequence of such an Empire would be the loss of idealism, the gradual loss of nobility - the gradual breakdown of the Empire itself. This is inevitable simply because the aim of 'global domination' is not an aim worthy of noble idealism - it is, in fact, rather petty.

Further, the domination, the subjection that would be required is ignoble; it is unworthy of a consciously aware noble people. It is a negation of the understanding achieved through thousands of years of civilization; it is a negation of the practical achievements of civilization in terms of Technology. In the past - in previous civilizations - subjugation and domination were indeed necessary: without the work of slaves, for instance, a civilized way of life would have been impossible. Expressed simply and brutally - subjugation and domination are simply not necessary anymore. It is not a question of subjugation and domination of other peoples being somehow 'morally reprehensible' - such moral sensibilities are irrelevant if the survival of a civilization and a civilized people are at stake, as they would have been at stake in the past without subjugation and domination. Rather, it is a fact of such subjugation and domination being no longer required to create, maintain and expand civilization. The reality today - due to advances in Science and Technology - is that such subjugation and dominance would be a hindrance, diverting man-power and resources from what is essential in creating an entirely new type of civilization based on the understanding and wisdom we have now attained.
 

A New Type of Struggle

We are now in the position to take the next step in our evolutionary development - a step far more important than the creation of the very first civilization, thousands of years ago. The entire history of civilization itself - from the first civilization in Sumeria to our present Thorian one - has led to this moment: has made this moment possible.

We can, for the first time in our existence, actively work in harmony with Nature to produce an entirely new race - virtually a new species of beings. We can actively contribute to evolution. This does not mean the creation of a new race by such things as 'genetic engineering' - it means creating the conditions necessary for a new race to evolve and thrive in accordance with Nature herself. It means 'stepping over the threshold' into an entirely new way of living which by its very nature produces a new type of civilization and new, higher race - which provides the challenges, the struggle, the noble idealism necessary to produce higher types of beings. It means working in harmony with Nature rather than against her (as most 'genetic engineering' works against Nature).

This threshold is this planet itself. We can, by moving out into the new and limitless frontier of Outer Space, create new ways of living. We can, by accepting this immense challenge, breed from that challenge heroic, creative, noble individuals who take evolution ever higher - who fulfil the promise of evolution itself. We can, by overcoming such challenges, create not just one but many new types of civilization. We can, by passing this threshold, work in harmony with Nature and achieve our ultimate Destiny as a race. We can assure our future as a noble creative race by accepting this Destiny.

The ultimate Destiny of the Aryan race lies in the conquest of Outer Space - in the creation of a Galactic Empire. Our whole past has led to this - has made this Destiny attainable. With and through this great challenge we can make full use of our inventiveness, our nobility, our genius. In comparison to this supreme challenge, everything else is mundane, petty and unworthy of us. Only the challenge of colonizing this new and limitless frontier will bring the best out in us. Only this supreme challenge can produce by its very nature the right type of individual - a new breed of higher Aryans. For this challenge expresses the most noble ideal that exists.
 
 

III: The Noble Vision -The Galactic Empire
 
 

The Galactic Empire is the only noble ideal which today is worthy of us. It is the highest, most noble ideal we can aspire to because it alone possesses the greatness to make us, as individuals and as a race, great. It alone encompasses everything that has made us and can make us noble: it alone possesses the numinosity necessary to inspire us to great achievements at this moment in the history of our race. It alone continues the upward work of Nature.

The ideal of a Galactic Empire expresses everything that National-Socialism is. The striving for and achievement of such an Empire, over decades and centuries, will represent the practical implementation of the principles and ideals of National-Socialism. The very struggle for this noble ideal will create a higher race.

Of course, today this vision of a Galactic Empire - of the colonization of star-systems across the galaxy - seems a dream. But it is attainable. It must be understood that National-Socialism itself represents the noble instincts, the noble yearning that most Aryans have in their hearts - whether or not they are aware of this due to the lies about National-Socialism. That is, National-Socialism is a conscious and practical expression of their desire for a better, a more noble, way of life: it enables that desire to become real. Similarly, the ideal of a Galactic Empire is the ultimate practical expression of National-Socialism.

For this Empire to become real, National-Socialism must triumph. That is, the present decadent, anti-Aryan System must be overthrown by National-Socialists and some form of National-Socialist State or community established. To achieve this, years of hard, bitter struggle are necessary - our folk need to be won over to the noble National-Socialist Cause.

Once such a victory is attained, the new State or community needs to be made secure - to secure its existence against its external and internal enemies. National-Socialism then needs to be implemented within that State or community - that is, social justice needs to be strived for; a new economic system created; natural justice implemented; Aryan spirituality returned; agrarian reforms made. This in itself will take many years. This new State or community will need wise leadership - to preserve it from its external enemies. It will need, in its early years, to avoid conflict with other peoples or States - it must present itself as concerned only with its own, internal affairs, with creating a new, spiritual, way of living for its own folk; with creating an Aryan homeland. But it must always be ready to defend itself, should it be threatened - it must make others aware that any people or State seeking to destroy this new Aryan homeland will pay a severe penalty if they attack. Whatever resources or raw materials this Aryan homeland might require from other States or countries, it would obtain by trade and negotiation - as it would strive to be as self-sufficient as possible.

After this National-Socialist State or community has secured its existence and begun implementing National-Socialism, it can turn its attention toward the new frontier of Outer Space. The first stage of implementing the ideal of a Galactic Empire would be the building of Space Stations orbiting the Earth. The second would be colonies on the Moon and Mars. Intensive research would be undertaken with the objective of building Space Ships. These beginnings would take many decades during which the Aryan homeland would be concerned only with its own folk and achieving its own internal objectives. The world external to that homeland would be left to its fate. Given time, and by virtue of the fact that such an Aryan homeland would be dedicated to idealism, this homeland would emerge as the one civilized, cultured community in a decaying, increasingly ignoble world. It would - provided it dedicated itself to its ideals and provided it kept itself free of external colonial and military adventures and the squabbles of contending countries - assuredly emerge sooner or later as the most powerful community on the Earth. That is, to achieve prominence, it need only keep itself secure and keep its people noble - Nature will achieve the rest. The leaders of such an Aryan homeland must always remember this.

With this emergence to dominance, the task of building the Galactic Empire will be made easier since the Aryan homeland will have become the focus and probably the homeland for the best of the Aryan peoples of this world. This homeland will also then be in a position to utilize the resources of the world for the benefit of its folk and to aid its conquest of Outer Space - that is, the other peoples of the world will actively seek to trade with this Aryan homeland in order to acquire things for themselves. Once again, in this trade - and in utilizing the resources of the world - the leaders of the Aryan homeland need to act wisely, with nobility toward those other peoples. That is, they need the wisdom to take the long-term view - establishing where possible friendly relations with other peoples, for the mutual benefit of both. Any other course of action is self-defeating in the long-term.

With these resources of manpower and materials - and the spur the noble ideal of Space Travel will give to invention and discovery - new advances will undoubtedly be made. Space Ships capable of inter-stellar travel will become feasible, and colonization will begin in earnest. A whole new chapter of mortal history will begin. The Aryan race will seed itself across the galaxy, creating a multitude of civilizations and a multitude of cultures. A new race will emerge, created by this conquest. Then, even were the remaining Aryans on Earth to perish for some reason - even were the Earth to perish for some reason - civilization would continue and flourish. Our civilization - and we ourselves - will have achieved everlasting glory. We will have opened a new phase of evolution wherein the possibilities would be almost limitless.

We must always remember that if we only aspire to small things, we will only achieve small things. To achieve great things, we need to aspire to greatness - the vision of a Galactic Empire is the greatest, most noble, vision we can have. The obstacles in the way of the creation of this noble vision are only there to be overcome. If we do not aspire to this greatness, if we do not struggle to overcome the obstacles in the way of creating first a National-Socialist community and then a Galactic Empire, then we do not deserve to survive as a race. Nature has given us this opportunity - it will never arise again. It is up to us whether we take this opportunity for greatness.
