I don’t understand the language, but I’ve always loved this song. It has a certain feel to it. Also she has a very beautiful voice
Interesting article on paganism
Every culture before the coming of monotheism and materialism had their shamans/wizards who used various tools during their rituals. One such tool was the drums used by most pagan cultures. Shamans/Seers/Volkhvs used a combination of drum, singing, spirit dance & sacred plants/mushrooms, along with other elements.

Until recently people were taught that the pagans were so ignorant that they worshipped any random tree stump or rock, and that their traditions, rituals, and rites were based on silly fairytales and superstition. Today people are finally doing a serious research into the ways of our pagan ancestors, and we are learning more and more that their ancient traditions, rituals and rites are often found to be backed up by the latest science. The sound of shamanic drums goes into the subject of psychoacoustic, and Cymatic frequency.

Cymatics is a very interesting topic. It illustrates how sound frequencies move through a particular medium such as water, air, or sand and as a result directly alter physical matter. There are a number of pictures all over the internet as well as youtube videos that demonstrate how matter (particles) adjust to different sounds and different frequencies of sound.
When it comes to ancient knowledge, sound, frequency and vibration have always been perceived as powerful forces that can influence and alter life all the way down to the cellular level. Sound healing methods are often used by Shamans, who employ drums and singing to access trance states.
I can’t say I follow his work, because I’m slightly familiar with his material, but I can say it’s interesting.


Nicolai or Nikolai Levashov was a Russian occultist and psychic healer who wrote several books on life in the universe, Slavic history, the origin of mankind on Earth and other topics.
Beautiful sound
I would not say that a true lady is nonexistent. She is a dying breed, much like the gentleman, but she still exists
This is another example of a mutualistic symbiotic relationship between plant-life & humans/animals that naturally occurs in nature. Academic sources taught us that life is survival of the fittest, competition, rat race, but I don’t believe this is the case. There is evidence showing that naturally, plants and animals/humans are supposed to live together and benefit from each other. Most people are already aware of how trees/plants & animals/humans complement one another by exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide. I want to share another example of this, and it has to do with reflecting & absorbing the color green. Color green is the a color that isn’t good for plants, and best color for humans...

Green light is the least effective for plants because they are themselves green due to the pigment Chlorophyll. Different color light helps plants achieve different goals as well. All photosynthesizing plants have chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is found in the chloroplasts of plants. This molecule absorbs most of the energy from the violet-blue and reddish-orange part of the light spectrum. It does not absorb green, so that's reflected back to our eyes and we see the leaf as green. Leaves appear green because they reflect green, while absorbing all other colors of light

So we know that plants don’t absorb color green, but reflect it. We know that the color green is the least effective color for plants, but green is the most beneficial color for humans. So we see that one species is getting rid of something that is very useful and beneficial for another species. The human eye can see green better than any other color. Green color is known for its balanced healing properties. It is a restful color that symbolizes growth and renewal. It also encourages comfort and equilibrium and is particularly beneficial for the heart, lungs and circulatory system.

During one of his presentations, dr Leonid Sharashkin said that in organic nature there is no such thing as garbage/waste, because each species is designed to use or consume the waste product of another species. So that which is trash/waste to one species, is yummy food/sustenance, or building material for another species.

Unfortunately we modern humans are almost completely disconnected from this complex organic ecosystem of earth. Older pagan ethnic cultures taught their people how to commune with the world of nature, and each tribe was linked to their local ecosystem, climate, and environment not only physically, but also psychologically, emotionally, spiritually. Our ancestors didn’t see wild nature as being separate from them. One of the things that was common among all cultures during the pagan era, people of all ethnic groups were in-tuned with their local organic environment & ecosystem, they all followed nature-based spirituality, venerated their ancestors, and had a strong sense of responsibility for their future generations.

Modern humans are detached from their local land, disconnected from their local organic ecosystem, and climate. Every aspect of modern human existence is disconnected from organic flow of life on earth
