Pandora, 1881. Lawrence Alma-Tadema (Dutch, 1836-1912).
In his book, “The Arctic Home in the Vedas”, author L.B.G. Tilak states that evidence of a great race of noble, light-skinned demigods can be found in ancient Hindu sacred texts known as the Vedas.  These beings were said to have lied in what is today the Arctic Circle until a great cataclysm occured:
“…the Aryans were autochthonous neither in Europe nor in Central Asia, but had their original home somewhere near the North Pole in the Paleolithic times, and that, they migrated from this place southwards in Asia and Europe, not by any “irresistible impulse,” but by unwelcome changes in the climatic conditions of their original home. The Avesta preserves traditions which fully support this view. But these have been treated as valueless by scholars, who worked up their theories at a time when man was regarded as post-glacial, and the Avestic traditions were, it was believed, not supported by any Vedic authority. But with the time-telescope of a wider range supplied to us by recent scientific discoveries it has become possible to demonstrate that the Avestic traditions represent a real historical fact and that they are fully supported by the testimony of the Vedas.”

How do we find back to our roots?

Short clip of German ethno-botanist and author Wolf-Dieter Storl where he talks about the importance of ancestors and the influence of a specific environment on a culture or people.

When he talks about "forest people" he specifically means Teutonic, Celtic, Slavic and Baltic tribes, amongst others, regarding the northern hemisphere. He writes about that in his books.

Don’t throw away your unused bread. You can make home-made croutons & breadcrumbs with it.
Every week I do my grocery shopping, and I always have leftover bread that I usually throw into the wooded area behind my house for the wildlife, but this time I decided to keep my unused bread, and make home-made breadcrumbs. The quality is so much better than the store-bought. Home-made breadcrumbs smell, and taste much better
“His Dark Materials” the TV series is based on “His Dark Materials” the epic trilogy of fantasy novels consisting of Northern Lights (1995, published as The Golden Compass in North America), The Subtle Knife (1997), and The Amber Spyglass (2000). It follows the coming of age of two children, Lyra Belacqua and Will Parry, as they wander through a series of parallel universes. Of course the modern TV series just had to mess up the original story by bringing in their forced diversity...
Racing Nymphs, 1906. John Reinhard Weguelin (English, 1849-1927).
They are singing a traditional Belarusian song. I love that the girls are singing traditional Slavic folk songs, but their clothes do not have the traditional Slavic appearance.

I think one of the girls is even wearing a Native American dreamcatcher around her neck.

The girls are doing an amazing job at singing, but I’m not sure if they really feel that ancestral pagan Slavic connection.

I don’t blame the girls, they are young, and the older people who work with them should be teaching them these things.

From watching their performances, I can tell that the girls can feel the vibration they create when they sing these folk songs, and it looks like they understand that singing folk songs as a group is something spiritual, it’s just that they haven’t connected the dots, and really connected to their ancestral Slavic pagan heritage.

They know they’re doing something spiritual, they just haven’t connected it to ancestry & ethnic roots.

That’s why they have a kind of new age spirituality thing going on.

I don’t know, maybe it’s just me. And I’m sure some people would say that I’m nitpicking, but for me the whole thing has to come together, the singing technique, the type of song/music, the costumes and the dancing. If you’re performing an ancestral folk song, then everything else has to match it.

You definitely should not sing a Slavic folk song, while you’re decorated in Native American symbols.

I’m sorry for being so judgmental, but judging/criticizing is not always a negative thing. Sometimes its necessary. It’s a tool at our disposal.
Many people today still don’t believe that official history was fabricated. They say that it is simply impossible to tamper with history on such a large scale without anyone noticing. I found that it’s actually very easy for those in power to tamper with our history. In fact, it’s happening right now, at this very moment, right in front of us. “They” are tampering with genuine history of ethnic European & Slavic peoples. For those who are paying attention, it’s becoming more and more clear that their aim is to either completely bring ethnic Europeans, and the white race in general to extinction, or to dilute/distort it with other cultures, races, ethnicities. And I am talking on all levels here. The elite psychologically manipulate the masses with their propaganda to drive them to crossbreed with one another. The different races, and ethnicities are mixing up on a physical level as far as genetics, as well as history, folklore, art , literature, achievements, inventions, ancestral wisdom and traditions.
