When I explain Nemesis to people, I tell them, "You know the expression that pride comes before the fall? Nemesis is the fall." Though it would be more accurate to say that hubris comes before the fall. Those guilty of hubris believe themselves to be above the laws of the universe (or nature) and the universe begs to differ.

I see it as Themis decides the law and Nemesis is the carry out of justice. So Themis would be the judge and Nemesis would be the execution. Nemesis is the greek version of karma in my eyes.

I have a question for you Sir Richard Pesek,...Do humans and gods has the equal rights to be punished?

Hope to hear from the one who uploaded the video Thank you
@revoraniciete9403
@revoraniciete9403 6 лет назад
Just incase, Greek Mythology is a reality, are those humans can also pray or reverred Nemesis if another God abuse them, Is Nemesis can punish Gods who oppressed humans?
@vaggos013
@vaggos013 6 лет назад
Nemesis cannot punish Gods for their actions against humans. Gods can be punished from Zeus and (sometimes) the will of the gods in their council in general, or when they do not keep their oath to the waters of Styx or when another god has problems with him/her and do something against him/her. For example when Poseidon and Apollo entered a conspiracy to put Zeus in bonds, he sent them to serve King Laomedon as punishment in mortal human forms. A god can be punished but usually not about his actions against humans.
@revoraniciete9403
@revoraniciete9403 6 лет назад
So, basically Greek gods are really unjust if they wanna do something bad against humans they are really free to do so. There is no real justice if a Greek god would like to harass hurt, to curse all humans, no punishments for them it so fleshy, so, if a Greek mythology is reality it is a worst world to be born as a human. whew...it's difficult to live, there if that idea/system applies in their world.

Karma is a bit more confusing because say if someone got murdered. How do we discern if the murder was Karma in action rather then an innocent victim? A girl got raped. "Karma, maybe she raped someone in her previous life" If we have to stick to someone, take your chances in Jesus Christ.

Yes I know a lot of people get mad over things but that that don't mean they should.

Like many other people, I would imagine, I was for a long time not aware that the word Nemesis actually came from a deity. I just knew it as a word for an eternal enemy or opponent. Or as the big zombie guy from Resident Evil. I learned pretty late of her. It is interesting that her name and the modern meaning of it are so different from each other. I find her way of delivering justice pretty cool. The gods tend to remove themselves mostly from the humans but she seems very close to the mortals in what she does, forming a more palpable connection.

I think Nemesis, much like the nordic god Vidar and the hebrew angel Samael represent karma, a form of instantaneous "cause and effect" justice, unlike the more organised and institutionalized justice of Themis, Forseti and Michael. They also punish two very different types of crime: the first is a behavioral crime, untouched by the law (like being arrogant) while the second is a crime that directly contradicts the established order (like murder or theft). In a way, vengeful gods prevent crime by punishing potentially criminal subjects, so I think their work is worthy of praise.

Can think of a few scenarios where Nemesis could seem really evil. The stories example is she punish those who were good fortune and were a dick about it. But she appoints herself to bring balance, not judge characters. Suppose it was just someone with good fortune, and therefore she has to ruin someone life to bring back "balance." It strikes me of all the evil that comes from the mindset of "People need to be kept in their places" as she strikes misfortune on anyone who gets ahead by good fortune. The story with her causing misery on jerks with good fortune makes her noble cause they were jerks, but what about stories of those she merely bring "balance" to those who were innocent but had good fortune. Somehow makes me think of gods in Dark Soul. She not going round to bring balance to those who's had bad luck, only to kick people back down when they have had good luck.

I'm pretty late but I came to this video because of a witch on tik tok who was talking about Nemesis. So, I naturally got curious. You said everything that I was thinking. I was a bit worried because I have a Tulpa who (somehow) brings good luck to me. And I started to question if I am not deserving of my good fortune.

don't take my 100% word on this because i could be wrong, but it would connect alot of things better and make more sense of the things she does and act on (in the specific way she does) if you look at her as being a goddess that is more about Retribution, Revenge, Justice, and Fairness (with a little bit of Truth) instead of Retribution, Revenge, Justice, and Balance, since you don't need Fairness for Balance as Balance can be subjective and biased where as Fairness is more objective and leans more towards being non-biased

Does Nemesis have a sister? That rewards those with Miss Fortune that persevere? That would be nice.

+artzyGamer Nymphs are spirits of nature. They were considered minor goddesses ranked below the Olympians, but they were still allowed to attend the assemblies of the gods on Mount Olympus. First there are *dryads,* nymphs of the forest who reside in trees. They are further divided into sub-categories: Oreads (mountain pine nymphs) Meliae (ash-trees), Hamadryads (oak trees), and Meliades (fruit-trees). Then there are *naiads,* nymphs who inhabit bodies of freshwater, like springs, lakes, rivers, fountains and streams. The *Nereids* are sea nymphs, daughters of Nereus, the Old Man of the Sea. There are fifty of them in total, and they often accompanied Poseidon.

Was she also the goddess of consequence and balance? Not just revenge and retribution? Though hearing her as a goddess of forntune is a first for me. Glad you did a vid on her (as she's my all favorite). Keep up the great work, it's great not just to learn new things but have refreshers as well.

Thank you sir for posting this video! Growing up I found a love for the immortal ones in world mythology but precious little information unless it was one of the major ones such as Zeus and his perceived lack of sexual restraint. Let us not forget the story of his cup bearer, Ganymede! The Gods switch hit as well! Anyway, I find Nemesis to be a Goddess for our time.Greed,exploration and cruelty to our fellow humans.She is definitely needed now and whose to say She is not at work now? A Griffin chariot?! Now that is truly worthy of Nemesis 's power and position. As always I learn much from your postings,thank you!

Nemesis is simply a 'force' over which nothing has control...a rough contemporary concept we have is 'Divine Justice'. It was not anthropomorphized until later Greek culture started to produce literature where the concept was necessarily translated into something relatable and useful to Theme and characterization. Lesser concepts, directly applied by individuals, such as Hubris and Narcissism, were subject to the force of Nemesis, a reminder that intellectual and personae constructs are deceptions, revealed as such at the whim of said force.

@vraielumiere
@vraielumiere 3 года назад
It goes way beyond that concept. Many of the 1% were tortured & mind controlled from birth to become the apathetic sociopaths they are today. They are victims, too. However, after the veil gets lifted from their consciousness we will judge them based on their autonomous behaviour
