Another angle on Patrick from one of my patrons. He and I have disagreed on some of the Divine Twin identifications, but overall this was a thought-provoking read:

Keep in mind that both Llassar (=Purusha/Lugaid) and Efnysien (=Eber Finn) die during the same creation myth tale (Branwen, daughter of Llyr).

Here is the AI summary version of my last video on Joseph and Trita, which I shared with our chat group.
The AI did a solid job.

Keep in mind I made a 2.5 hour video on this myself (see previous posts), and the AI version is a only a bit of fun to help people who want the bite-sized 9 minute version.

The main thing that wasn't satisfying was that it didn't emphasize just how incredible the matching redundant double verbs at the lifting moment are, or just how fully this and the sudden-appearing lifter parallel explains most of the problems people have had with the scene.

Once again, the author of Taliesin's Map has demonstrated the Aryan origin of a biblical myth. This video gives a simple overview of his argument regarding the Joseph story in Genesis.

@Folk_Spirit

The Forbidden Fruit sequence of Genesis 2-3 is, out of all world mythology, most closely paralleled by a Gaelic myth.

Consider that for a moment. It's hard to believe, but it's true.

Surprisingly, this allows us to deduce that the most likely direct source of the Genesis story was a lost Iranian version of this myth, which was originally a pan-Indo-European myth.

Great summary of the Fire god of the sea MANANNAN/MANAWYDAN

We discussed the Demon Kali and his parallels in European myth,
Loki and Ailill

Not only did the Proto-Indo-Europeans have an Absolute (Breoghan = Brahman), but it seems that they may have had a thorough mythos of "his" personification as well. All the way back in 3000 BCE.

Or else how do you explain Trefuilngid Tre-eochair?

Building on the Cuchulainn and Fenrir parallels, we went into some of the further Vishnu parallels of Europe

This, I hope it should be obvious, is not us.

What are you doing to honor their legacy?

I discussed the Danu/Morrigan type goddess, who could arguably be called the Indo-European Tiamat.

Excellent video. I agree overall that Prometheus isn’t the caricature Jorjani makes of him, and I also touch on how Prometheus is like an aspect of the Fire of Zeus’ Mind in my book chapter on the Irish Prometheus, Corrgend.

The Birdlike: Enda and the Nature of the Celtic Absolute

The Birdlike, Part 2

Why is the Celtic Absolute “Birdlike”?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6SJqtS7HjX4

The clearest names of the Celtic Absolute, which I have uncovered as an indispensable step in understanding what Celtic Paganism was historically, and how we should practice it:

Breoghan (The Powerful/Exalted)

Enda (The Birdlike)

Tat (Papa)

Trefuilngid Tre-ochair (Triple Supporter Triple Edged)

Dyfnwal Moelmud (The Silent Bald World King)/
Domnall Mildemail (The Warlike World King)

Tabairn is the name of the Ocean on the level of the Absolute, in that way comparable to the Nun or the Indefinite Dyad.


The Celts were veritably overflowing with an appreciation for the Absolute, as well as an ambition to embody its “Birdlike” nature whenever they wore the bird cloak (tuigen) of the seer.
