Self-sufficiency is the key to freedom. Our ancestors relied on themselves for everything, and were fully self-sufficient. Today we almost completely lack self-sufficiency. We the domesticated humans rely on the state system/government for everything, just like a pet relies on its master
Magical art, beautiful song.
Lovely song & art.
This is wonderful. From start to finish how to grow flax seeds, harvest & prepare it, and make fabric out of it. This was the authentic way of our ancestors. So much work goes into it. So many details. Watching this video makes me realize how far away we are from self-sufficiency. More and more we are becoming disable, and forgetting how to do things for ourselves
I believe it’s very important to absorb as much as you can the knowledge of medicinal and edible wild plants, mushrooms, berries, roots, etc. Every now and then I try to take in some of this sacred knowledge. Today we have the advantage of Internet, which allows us to obtain & share information extremely fast. We cannot allow for this knowledge to die out. Drug companies/pharmaceutical cartel, along with the modern toxic GMO/MSG food producers want us to forget this knowledge forever, and to fully rely on them for their toxic food and medicine. They do not want us to ever be self-sufficient. Knowing about medicinal an edible wild plants, mushrooms, berries, etc. is but a tiny tiny fraction of what our ancient forefathers knew about nature.

Christianity vs. Folk Faith

Folk faith: life in nature
Christianity: “life” after death

Folk faith: Perpetuation of life as sacred
Christianity: fertility as shameful

Folk faith: strength
Christianity: weakness

Folk faith: life & joy
Christianity: death & mourning

Folk faith: humans children of the gods
Christianity: humans slaves/servants of god

Folk faith: freedom
Christianity: authority

Folk faith: direct link to gods
Christianity: intermediaries/priests
I love his enchanting art

Men and women of the west hold your ground!
