"Our great,remote 'Menschen-Reich',the 'Zarathustra-Reich' of a thousand years".
[Nietzsche,Thus Spake Zarathustra,Book IV,'Das Honig-Opfer';the last phrase is in German,'das Zarathustra-Reich von tausend Jahren--']
"Chief viewpoint:establish DISTANCES but create no ANTITHESES".[Nietzsche,WM,891]
The Ten Needments.
1.ETERNITY.There is no beginning nor any end to the universe;the universe is not limited in time or space:it is Eternal.
2.IMMORALISM.Morality is an human invention;there is no absolute good,nor absolute evil.
3.WILL TO POWER.There are no antithetical values;there is only will to power:it is always a matter of the degree or quanta of will.
4.NECESSITY.Also Fate,Destiny;freewiill is a delusion;luck,chance,are mere conjectures made by the weak-willed;Strong will requires only Fate:it recognises that one needs to Will a Necessity.
5.ETERNAL RETURN.The Eternal Recurrence of the Same;Cyclic time;There is no 'progress';no unique events in a linear trajectory.
6.ORDER OF RANK.Master/Slave;Man/Woman;Caste/Blood;there is no 'equality';there is no randomicity;there is no meaningless exchanges of blank qualityless atoms,or atomistic elements.
7.THE EARTH.And the Body;Away with all metaphysical 'otherworlds';no heaven/hell/paradise/nirvana/utopia;there is only this universe,this earth,this body and this life-did I say 'only'!8.ABSOLUTE AFFIRMATION.Amor Fati;Against all nihilism,pessimism,Nay-Saying and defeatism;against all evading,cowardice and wishful thinking.
9.THE SUPERMAN.The Dionysian/Apollonian;Zarathustra;The Free Spirits;Man must be surpassed;the soul must grow greater,wider and more multifarious;Tragic insight.
10.GOD IS DEAD.Atheism;'God' is an objection to a thinker.
Accepting one,means accepting all.
