Lucifer, duh. I understand that you want to hear the name of one man, as I once did. But that’s like asking ‘who’s the good guy pulling the strings for the good guys’. There is no one. The metaphysical entity that constantly tempts us all away from immediate obvious good objective consciousness is called Lucifer. Lucifer offers us false knowledge with the promise that it will benefit is. What Nietzsche called ‘decadence’. Lucifer suggests that if we direct our energy away from our centres, and toward external nothingness, we will have what we already have, simultaneously trying to convince us that we don’t already have it.
