Kritik am Buch „The Shadow Of The Dalai Lama ... - Neues von Shi De

the Knights Templar, in the work of Alighieri Dante, the mysticism surrounding the holy grail,
European knighthood, alchemy. Using criteria drawn from Vajrayana, he propounds a cultural history
of sexuality in his most famous book, Eros and the Mysteries of Love: The Metaphysics of Sex. Evola
was not just a theoretician, he also practiced sexual magic rites himself. There are unmistakable
statements from him about the “tantric female sacrifice” and the transformation of sexuality into
political power. Like almost no other, the Italian has openly named the events that unfold in the
mysteries of the yogis and then confessed to them: “The young woman,” he writes, “who is first
‘demonized’ and then raped, ... is essentially... the basic motif for the higher forms of tantric and
Vajrayanic sexual magic” (Evola, 1983, p. 389). In dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini
he saw the precursors of future Maha Siddhas who would one day conquer the world with their magic
powers: “The magician, the ruler, the lord”, he proclaims in regard to Tantrism, “that is the type of the
culture of the future!” (Evola, 1926, p. 304). He recommends Tantrism as “the way for a Western
elite” (Evola, East and West, p. 29).
In the Shambhala myth he sees a confirmation of the European tradition of the savior king, especially
the myth of the grail: “At a particular time decreed by one of the cyclical laws, a new manifestation of
the solar principle from above will occur in the form of a sacred ruler who gains victory over the
‘dark age’: Kalki Avatara. Symbolically Kalki will be born in Shambhala — one of the terms in the
Indian/Tibetan tradition for the holiest hyperborean [Nordic] center” (Evola 1955, p. 56).
We could fill many pages illustrating the influence of Vajrayana (Tibetan Tantrism) on Evola’s work.
But however, we will instead concentrate on a detailed discussion of the ideas of one of his pupils,
Miguel Serrano. Serrano combines Evola’s fascist philosophy of power warriors with the national
socialist thoughts on race. His works are particularly interesting for us not just because he is still alive
(in 1999), but also because he has been linked with the Fourteenth Dalai Lama several times.
Miguel Serrano: The Dalai Lama’s “friend” and chief ideologist of “esoteric Hitlerism”
"Miguel Serrano”, writes his interviewer, Isidro Palacios, “was the only [!] western foreigner who
traveled to meet the Dalai Lama as the monk-emperor of the Tibetan Buddhists fled from the holy
land of Tibet to the south because of the Chinese invasion. Our conversation partner [Serrano]
traveled from India into the Himalayas where his meeting with the Dalai Lama took place, and since
then a close friendship has existed between him and the now Nobel prize winner” (Palacios, 1990, p.
2). Who is this “close friend” of the Kundun then?
Miguel Serrano was born in Santiago, Chile in 1917. Between 1947 and 1948 he visited Antarctica for
the first time, to which he later undertook many journeys. One of the massifs which he explored on an
expedition there bears his name today. Between 1939 and 1945 he published the esoteric journal, La
Nueva Edad [The New Age]. He was active as a diplomat for Chile in several countries, including
India, Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, and Austria. He also worked as an ambassador at the
International Atomic Energy Commission in Vienna and at the United Nations Industrial
Development Organization (UNIDO). Largely unnoticed by the public, Serrano has been in friendly
contact with numerous prominent national socialist and fascist figures since the seventies: with Léon
Degrelle, Otto Skorzeny, Hans-Ulrich Rudel, Hanna Reitsch, Julius Evola, Herman Wirth, Savitri
Devi, and the French Waffen SS man and author Saint Loup. The Chilean returned to his country of
birth and lives some kilometers from Santiago (as of 1999).
He published numerous books with an occult/poetic content. Even his work best known in the West,
