The sickle against the hammer: communism and the origins of deviant evil. By Dilip Rajeev
A
mongst the Greeks, the legend of Creation runs thus. Heaven mated with
Earth. Heaven and Earth generate offsprings. Heaven often returns to unite with Earth. The offsprings are often seen consumed by back by Heaven. A few of the offsprings think of this process of consumption, as a process of eating, death, killing, and in fear act against Heaven. Cronus, one of the offsprings, sickle off Heaven’s phallus, while he emerges again to bond with Earth. From the genitals of the Uranus god, the Father-God who were uniting with earth, thrown into the oceans, emerges Aphrodite – the goddess here perhaps symbolizing superficial beauty in manifest reality that distracts the created from its purpose of return. The bonding of Heaven with Earth, is renewal, it is the movement of created beings on the earthrealm to beauteous inner worlds. This movement were perceived in deviant perception, as an act of killing, and in fear, the beings created frameworks which opposed the Profounder. Communism fundamentally opposes Heaven-Earth philosophies. The number of innocents murdered by the idea runs higher than the total deaths in war, of the two world wars put together. The symbol of it is a sickle, acting against a hammer. The poverty, famines, and suffering generated by it is unparallaled. The recorded deaths outnumber by dozens of times the deaths the Nazis perpetrated. Crimes such as persecution of peaceful religious folks, organ harvestation from innocents, continue happening to this day in communist societies. In mythology, the phallic principle has associations with Heaven. It is the Father Principle who Creates. In India we find worship of the Siva Linga Principle. Literally the term Siva Linga implies, Siva’s phallic. Thor’s hammer is a powerful weapon wielded by the god. The hammer is expandable, in the case of Thor’s weapon. And again a phallic symbol. . The sickle acting against it is a symbol of opposition to the creating and renewing source. The Phallic Nature of the principle that which is abstracted as the Father, found abstraction in the hammer. Its denial, opposition to, in the form of the sickle.
