Lyrics - Track Comments To "de Profundis" by Vader

"
Silent
Empire"
Trystero is the name of the oldest conspiracy in the worldwhich started off in the early
XIII century and has supposedlysurvived until our times.
In modern times the
Trystero couriersused waste bins to pass their secret messages.
The main aimof the organization was undermining of all official power in allits guises.
Trystero is reported to have been active in
Americafor the past 200 years, but no definite evidence has ever been found."
An
Act
Of
Darkness"
In the so-called "
Enochion" system of
Magick, the 10th
Ethyr(a non-dimensional sphere of the
Astral) named
ZAX is the placewhere the
Psychonaut must meet and battle
CHRONZON,a deamon-god to some, yet an illusory non-entity to others.
This devil of
Dispersion is the guardian of the
Abyss,the
Dweller of the
Threshold, and the
Gateitself,thus identical with
YOG-
SOTHOT of
H.
P.
Lovecraft's mythos."
Blood
Of
Kingu"
And was not
Man created from the blood of
Kingu, commanderof the hordes of the
Ancient
Ones?
Does not
Man possessin his spirit the seed of rebellion against the
Elder
Gods?
And the blood of
Man is the blood of vengeance.
And the blood of
Man is the
Spirit of vengeance.
And the power of
Man is the power of the
Ancient
Ones.
And this is the
Covenant.(

Forgotten
Generations of
Man - taken from "

Magan
Text")"
Incarnation"
The nephilim (
Hebrew for 'giants' or 'the
Fallen
Ones')of the ancient
Jewish legends are just distraction of whatcults of
Sumer and other old civilisations refer to - a raceof partly divine, partly organic, so to speak, creatures fromthe
Outside, be it other worlds or another planet.
Almost allprime great cultures teach that these beings provided the mankindwith the godly spark of wisdom, both mundane (like agriculture)and mystical and that they and people were severely punishedfor that
Promethe an rebellion by forces trying to hold themankind in the state of animal-like state of blissful ignorance.
Yet the seed was sown for us to flourish."
Sothis"
To ancient
Egyptians no star, except for the
Sun,was more important than
SOTHIS (
SIRIUS).
Robert
Templein his "
Sirius
Mystery" tells us much about spiritual andmundane influences of the very complex symbolism of thisstarry emblem, tracing its cult to the pre-
Egyptian sources.
Sothis was a star of many gods, standing for
Isis,
Osiris,or even daemonic
Seth.
Modern occultists, especially
Kenneth
Grant(the head of
Typhonian
O.
T.
O.), name its influence as veryimportant and identify it with the curre nt of the present age,
Eos of
Horus,
Crowned and
Conquering
Child, yet with the
Sethianelement still present and valid.
A slightly different accounton this great enigma may be found in a fascinating"
Cosmic
Trigger" by
R.
A.
Wilson."
Revolt"
The
Old
Ones were, the
Old
Ones are, and the
Old
Onesshall be.
From the dark stars they came before the
Man was born,unseen and loathsome they descended to primal
Earth.
Beyondthe gate dwell now the
Old
Ones, not in the spaces known unto
Man,but in their angles betwixt them.
Outside
Earth's plane
They lingerand ever await the time of their return, for
Earth has known
Themand shall know
Them in time yet to come.
After day cometh night,
Man's day shall pass, and
They shall rule where
They once ruled.("
Al
Azif"

Book of
Dead
Names)"
Vision
And
The
Voice"
Another
Enochian theme is inspired by
A.
Crowley's bookbearing the same title, where the
Beast recorded what he sawand heard during the desert operations in 1909.
The visionsconsitute almost a complete map of the
Astral, including the mostunreachable
Regions of the
Spiritual.
Each vision literally sparkswith intensity of expression that is powerfully impressive evento the uninitiated and profane.
The influence of "
Vision and the
Voice"can be clearly seen in all occult masterpieces
Crowley wroteafter 1909, for its content summarize the
Arcanas of all mystical,mythological, and religious emblems."
