Apocalyptic hope – that’s the only thing available now: that’s our teaching. Hope for the apocalypse – and what passes through the apocalypse. Only hope for total change, preceded by total destruction. Where you can’t even hope for your own survival.

 

Apocalyptic energies – that’s what you have to harness: that’s our teaching. Wild energies, unpredictable energies, impossible to contain. Where all you can do is to let them be unleashed. Horror and joy, mixed up. The fury of destruction. That is also the fury of creation. The end and the beginning – both at once.

 

You have to turn Gnostic. You have to learn to hate everything. You have to hate the air itself. Breathing itself. That’s our teaching.

 

And that our teaching is itself part of the problem. That our teaching is itself a sign of the apocalypse. A sign of Gnosticism.
