Yukio Mishima I Little Dark Age

Just 80k people like me and we will change the world forever Because those who oppose us are coward they can't fight and if you don't fight you can't win

[@tatenokaienjoyer]

One thousand, conviction and purity pulling in the same direction is enough. If not to collapse the system, at least to cripple it and give room for movement, give room for thought in the populus. Mishima had four more members of the Tatenokai paralyzed the military headquarters of one of the most advanced countries in the world, if only for an hour. The spirit of Gekokujō is eternal, the spirit of treachery gives an income. Those who oppose us cowards, no matter numerical advantage. History teaches us that the minority of conviction, will to power and faith win. And if not in battle, then morally. And that is more than any of the cowards can ever boast off. As you say, if you can't fight, you can't win. The win is ours, if not now, or within our youth, it is certain nonetheless! P.S made me very happy to hear such passion and ambition from someone! Cheers to you my brother!

Remember that his man was willing to die for an illusion. An empty ascetic ideal that he wanted to embody. Nobody shared his vision, even the youth in the Tatenokai likely did not understand him. His last act was beautiful despite that i think. What can be more noble than to willingly accept the meaningless, and strive through that for glory?

[@tatenokaienjoyer]

If that about "nobody belived his vision" is the moral compass then were all fucked. With that attitude none of the great men would have arisen. Is this cause for critizism? I think its reason for admiration. And you say aesthetic illusion then I recommend you look up his political writings and philosophical texts. However, even if we say you are right, insnt aehstetics one of the pillars? Isnt that divine? You pose your argument as it the only thing is material, I would put aesthetics and divinity above that. Mishimas view was that not only were beauty and ethics connected, but perhaps the same. I agree on this point. Also, he represented the repressed feelings of post war Japanesse people, perhaps the majority did not view his methods as right - but he (especially his lets say very nationalist and extreme tetrology) becoming the most sold and admired writer there. From your last part, I can only which you luck in growing out of your teen nihilist period (the uh read Nietczhe when fully misunderstanding him). Or taking Camus fully seriously (total absurdism is what I get from that part). A real nihilist commits suicide, a posour spits shit about accepting stuff, which is what has lead to the current shit state of nations, and in the end leads to fat and shallow men.

[@benkoops7866]

@@tatenokaienjoyer I understand where you are coming from. But i dont think you got what i was trying to say. I just meant to say his suicide was pointless. Why commit a coup in post-war Japan in the 60's? His political ideals were contrived, this was no time for hardline emperor worship. You could say his ideas of aestheticism were interesting, if morbid. Trying to sculpt a beautiful body just so you look good dying is a little much. Maybe he hated the state of affairs so much that he was willing to shake things up. But there are better ways than disemboweling yourself and holding somebody hostage who had nothing to do with anything. And wounding several others. And he might have been the best novelist of his time, but he was in a completely ostracized position. Exactly because of those political ideas. I do think you can admire his dedication to the part though. Im also not saying everything is meaningless, just his death. Maybe he inspired some really extreme people. But to do what, to commit suicide? Thats not to say, like in my original comment that i dont admire the strength of character and willpower it takes to actually follow through on it. You could call it his last work, the ulitmate statement. If you wanna talk about posing, Mishima's whole life was a pose, so..

The Postmodern human want's to live forever without pain and suffering, but i only would agree on living forever if i will still experience pain and suffering.

[@tatenokaienjoyer]

It is about his final act rather than a which for endless life in this realm, he writes about this very clearly (and also, however not as blatantly in his fiction) in his essay ''Sun and Steel''. He views death as something higher and the act makes one eternal. To know and not to act is not to know at all, for him, seeing what Japan turns into, against tradition, becoming westernized quasi American puppet, all old morals such as Bushido being swept away for soul killing endless consumerism etc. So nah, his act included suffering also, which is also what gave it the ''dramatic and heroes death'' in his view at least. So to answer your question, its not about the which to live forever really, or not in that way, however with this said it's much in line with what you wrote.

Because we are sure there is something after death, if not in your preconceived way of thinking. But in that, most people live as if awaiting old age, wear themselves down. Partly the aesthetics of death, partly to resolve of dying for a cause higher than oneself, partly out of disgust for what death means for modern man (cancer, and tough people died of old age in past times, it never, ever, means the death of the hero or the martyr). What ''we'' fear is dying, not death. Right? We fear the cramps, we fear the anxiety. And tough, old age can be noble as well, to be drawn towards this kind of death (Mishima) I think is not strange at all. You have one life, as do you one death. To embrace death is to defy death.
