The circular state of mind he describes is also the way ancient Celtic peoples thought and lived. Everything comes and goes, every day, month, year and era is like a wheel: death gives way to life and sorrow to joy, over and over again, for varying lenghts of time but always in a circle. This is true, ageless wisdom.
This is also true for Lakota and many other tribes of n. america... The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves. Our tepees were round like the nests of birds, and these were always set in a circle, the nation's hoop. As described by Black Elk in the book: "Black Elk Speaks".
This idea also pops up in Judeo-Christian thought. Remember the Biblical passage that was made into that song by the Byrds "For every thing there is a season and a purpose under Heaven...turn, turn, turn..."
Those who thumbs down Einar shall suffer the fate of the Gods. Long live Einar & Wardruna! Thanks for posting, nothing better than a live performance despite the microphone not withstanding his great voice, heh.
C'mon everyone has different things their heart responds too, just because this is one of ours doesn't mean others are wrong. Plus which gods exactly? Some have fantastic lives, others live in eternal misery... just within this one religion
The people who disliked this video are cowards who would never comment because they would face the wrath of the rest of us! Shame on you people who don't like good music
at least he gave to what meaning the song refers to . powerful voice . I wish in the Nordic music videos they print in English the translation of the words
Amazing performance as always.. I'd like to see him in person if I had the chance. The introductory speech about the old way of perceiving the world matches perfectly with how I see the world. Despite being born Catholic, I've never shared the same point of view suggest by this monotheistic religion. I've tried in vain to explain my beliefs to people inside or outside the Church as institution but it turned out completely unuseful.
I was born Catholic, I am 17. It is very difficult trying to be an Asatru pagan under Himlar orn Himlarsson's group when you are surrounded by people who only see the world one way.
@@chadviking3607 agree with you mate....I'm distancing myself from catholic religion too. I'm a 22 yo girl, I live in Italy and was raised with catholic education. My family thinks I'm mad and they basically hate what I want to do but I've been trough hell for some years and now I feel the need to search for other beliefs. Is it too hard to understand? For example they hate the fact I refuse to be called with my second name, Maria bc it's too catholic. I feel sorry but I can't keep practicing a religion I don't feel mine anymore, it will be only preserving an exterior image I don't care about anymore. I crave to find my interior peace instead.
I like his speech in the beginning, alot of people missing the point of life. We can bring that back Birth,work,Battle,Death Then, Birth,Growing up,working,videogames,destressing,growing old ect.... we change with the times, how we are now isn't how we were then, with the advancement in technology we can life alot longer than our ancestors, we have not had had to worry about death as much until now and see what happened. Everyone is in a massive panic, well they were a year or so ago. But restrictions are still alive and well we all know that yes we know it's real but think about this If you view the world with oh everything is ok we have everything we need, you will die in a real world situation, I'm sorry it sounds horrible sure but if you take life into the idea that death is real and it's only a matter of time before we end up were we began then you are prepared for that certain day when something goes right, or wrong whichever way you see it.
Being a Christian, with Norse, Gaelic, and Celtic ancestry, the bible says there is a time for everything under the sun, with the circle of seasons he describes is a similar analogy. Both are very beautiful faith's and beliefs.

A linear perception of time isn't logic at its roots. It's too narrowing, especially if compared with the spiritual and material evolution path of mankind. Cycles makes sense instead. Anyways certain things, usually the ones that comes to surface from deep intuition, simply cannot be explained.
Finally someone asked. Yes where do I find this since I watched the show Viking and even a while before I was so fascinated by Norse mythology paganism. And I want to go to Norway wit my dad to experience it all
In the original sense of the word "pagan" simply means a person from the country, and has nothing to do with religion at all...and yes, Jesus was a country boy!
I agree with your point that christianity has come far from it's roots, and perhaps in the wrong way. Even the old orthodox hymns sound different and more powerful compared to the "good innocent catholic boy" themed boring chirping that is popular today. On the origins of Jesus I think that it was a Jewish invention to make jewish religion more popular to people. Being a "son of god" was actually common among Roman emperors at the time, so when a poor jew suddenly crowns itself as the son of god, it was nothing but a protest against the authorities at that time, and Romans didn't like it, so they nailed the poor bastard to a wooden cross of course. Why christianity became popular was because it was so easily marketable: "all your sins will be forgiven" and "the meager, poor people will be blessed" is exactly what the poor, lowly masses want to hear. Of course Christianity really took off when Constatine the great converted, but why? He was an exceptionally murderous character, who executed his own son by error, and when he realised his mistake, he had his wife boiled alive. When he got old he began to seek forgiveness from different religions, but all the high priests from different faiths apparently agreed on one thing, that his deeds are so fucked that they can't bless him.. except for one, Christianity! They told him "sure, convert and it all will be just fine", and the rest is history.
The women's eyes well up with tears, while their cunts froth for Einar. The God's listen and know we have not strayed far enough to forget. The men's hearts tremble, and their blood boils for the beautiful truth the Christ God tries to conceal.
