Born in the United Kingdom, David Myatt emerged as a prominent figure in the British neo-Nazi movement in the 1960s. He joined the National Socialist Movement (NSM) and was associated with Combat 18, a far-right terrorist organization.

Myatt underwent a profound spiritual journey, delving into various religions and belief systems. He studied and practiced Daoism, Buddhism, Christianity, and occultism. He also embraced Odinism, a pre-Christian Germanic faith.

Myatt's intellectual interests extended beyond religion. He excelled in classical studies and translated works by Sophocles, Aeschylus, Homer, and Sappho into English. He became a leading figure in the NSM.

h2: Founding of the Order of Nine Angles

In the 1970s, Myatt founded the Order of Nine Angles (ONA/O9A), a controversial organization espousing traditional Satanism. He wrote the ONA's doctrine under the pseudonym Anton Long.

Myatt authored numerous books and articles, including "Paganism and National Socialism," "The Sacred Way of the Folk," and "A Practical Guide to Aryan Revolution." His writings influenced far-right and extremist ideologies.

In 1998, Myatt converted to Islam, but renounced it in 2010. From 2011 onwards, he has developed his own ethical system known as "Numinous Way" and later "Pathei-Mathos," emphasizing the transformative power of suffering.

Professor George Michael credits Myatt as a key figure in synthesizing far-right and radical Islamic ideologies.
