Awake Goy By Alfred Rosenberg
No one factor accounts for a myth. It is a part of one’s whole heritage. It is born in the person. Even if an individual becomes a part of another culture he is called, deep down inside, by his own myth. It is a sum total of the culture, mores, folkways, customs, art, traditions, legends, history, experience and will of his own race, and it is even more than these things. It is the embodied vital will of great men. It is the contributions, defeats failures, hopes, aspirations and accomplishments of the ethnically-related members of the group.
Here, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The myth is the scaffolding, the superstructure on which all these other things are constructed. It is the skeleton around which the organic body is built. It is the framework which is covered over by a whole beautiful building. It is the form upon which, bit by bit, piece by piece, yard by yard, a people develop. But without the ordering of a myth, the people are merely a helter-skelter collection of all these various facts and facets.
The myth may begin as a single event. It is the factor which makes all the contributing elements coalesce around the one central event. In and of itself, it defies rational description. It cannot be wholly isolated for it works not only on the body of man but on his spirit. It works not a physical spell but a metaphysical one. It touches not man’s outer being but his inner self, his spirit, his true personality.
A nation without a vital myth drifts aimlessly throughout history. Myth gives purpose and meaning to the civilization. Myth makes a people a nation and a nation a race and a race a contributor to the world. Myth shapes the race so that the race may fulfill the potential of its individuals. The myth makes us conscious that we are a race, and not merely an arbitrary, purposeless, ill-defined conglomerate of men and women.
