This is my introduction to Armenian church music, like a cross between latin church music, instruments and eastern chant. Very beautiful. I am Russian Orthodox and I find we have more in common than our theology allows. Extraordinary. D. Alexandr D'Maddalena
Respect and warm greetings to all Armenian orthodox brothers! You may be very far away from us, but the distance does not hold us back from the unity and brotherhood through Jesus Christ our Lord. We Bulgarians remember all that Armenia has suffered throughout the ages and we are with you brothers. Through thick and thin, the orthodox nations must stick together to help one another. -With much love from Bulgaria! :-)
@PeopleOfAr that's kind of offensive to say best wishes from a country that was destroyed and taken over about a century ago. while I may not have experienced the genocide directly the pain still plagues all of the Armenian families I know of including my own. So while I am not sure whether or not you are aware of this information I am not certain but please take caution in referencing a place that no longer "officially" exists. The pain that it can reference may be far beyond your comprehension
@blackmagi849 there is nothing wrong with my comprehension. My family escaped Trabzond during the genocide. Only my great grandfather survived as an orphan when he was 10. So what you want to trade sad stories to determine who should be granted the moral right to wish some friendly person well?? What are you even talking about do you have an idea? If you experience some sort of pain by me wishing an Orthodox brother best wishes, then you should consider speaking to a mental health practitioner.
@PeopleOfAr I apologize I came off a little strong. my grandfather died yesterday. What I said I said in anger wrongfully placed towards a situation that I should not defend so selfishly. I know the error of my words cannot easily be broken so I hope that you can at least try to hear out how sorry I am for speaking out of line over such a delicate subject. It was wrong and I promise it will not happen again
@PeopleOfAr you had that titulature internationallty recognised far in 1991 ! the ones that follow the same faith ass romanians, greeks, and so on where this minority of Hai-Horoms, wich the catolichos of Constantinopol calls them a sect, heretics, meaning that romanians, bulgarians greeks are all sects and heretics ! shame on that man
@TheMistAnchorite Just because you are Romanian doesn't mean you have the "best" and "truest" religion. You haven't chosen to be Romanian you were born as such. So stop this arrogance towards other fellow Christians. Just because you are Rumanian Orthodox doesn't give you the moral right to judge my faith or decide whether I should call myself Orthodox or not.
@PeopleOfAr Jesus Christ told us Matthew 7,7 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. Խնդրեցէ՛ք Աստծուց, եւ նա կը տայ ձեզ, փնտռեցէ՛ք եւ կը գտնէք, բախեցէ՛ք, եւ կը բացուի ձեր առաջ. Ask for God to show you the truth, you forgott to ask, and by that if you where born muslim, than you would be muslim your entire life, but if you tried to search, seeing what each religion has to say, than you would not be muslim anymore. Search
@TheMistAnchorite Like I explained that is the name of my Church it doesn't matter whether you don’t accept it or some Greeks don’t accept it or the Pope for that matter. I’m not converting to anything so stop this nonsense. What kind of childish thing is it to say that if I choose to convert to "your" doctrine God would grant me land? If that is the way you believe in God then I don’t want any part of it.
@PeopleOfAr God will grant you land ? yes He can , He is God ... exactly like He did when He gave the israelites their Home, a new Land, Sacred ! do you seek for a border made by humans ? i was born romanian, but i am converting every day, because i search, and by night i am orthodox, i put myself in your possition, into muslim possition, and others. If i where a person from a nother religion i would search 1 remember i am not orthodox only with name, but because i searched !
@TheMistAnchorite You complained earlier that Armenians treat you as second class, but all I see from you is treating those who are not "Orthodox" in your eyes as such. That is immature and entirely un-Christian imo. The Armenian Church is one of the oldest Christian churches , it existed before many of your so called Orthodox once. It is considered Oriental Orthodoxy and there is nothing wrong with that. We believe in the Miaphysite nature of Jesus divine and human inseparably united.
@TheMistAnchorite Whether you or other churches believe this or not is not important to me nor to any of my brothers in faith. I respect all Christians and all goodhearted people. People have many ideas in this world and that’s a good thing, we should respect the diversity of opinions, not dogmatically eliminate all “diverging” thought, turning everyone blind to reason and free thought.
@PeopleOfAr more than that you say you are not monophisite ? than it is not a problem for your church to adopt the 4 , 5 ,6 ,7 synods, to accept the miracle of Saint Euphemya, to condamn Dioscorus ! your church condamned Eutichius the father of monophisitism, and that is great, but your church didnt condamn Dioscorus, who continued Eutichius's herecy , Dioscorus is his,,son" in herecy, and he is also a criminal !
@TheMistAnchorite You might know a lot about theology but I know about who I am and what my Church is. No mortal can tell for sure what the “right” way of believing in Jesus is, so all those quarrels are just childish ego fights. Besides our churches are themselves working hard on bridging the differences and accepting each other’s doctrines as they are. I’ll stick to my religion and you keep yours to yourself! Good day!
@PeopleOfAr keep your heretic religion monophisite and decive the hay-horoms, the true armenian orthodox , yes be ignorant of the REVELATION of the miracle of Saint Euphemya, this is satanic pride, and you will be judged for it ! hope your priests will renounce monophisitism once and for all
@TheMistAnchorite you sound like a spoiled brat who's not getting his candy! No matter how many times you repeat your intentional misguided remarks about my Churches position on the nature of Christ, it doesn't change the fact that it is Miaphysite not Monophysite. It's a pity to hear such insults from a fellow Christian especially when you are from Romania, one of my favorite countries.
@PeopleOfAr but the people of Armenia that dont know the truth are saved, but the priest of Armenia arent, especially those whho know the truth, and now my friend you know the truth, search who where the HAI-HOROMS. And yes i consider the 3 million armenians that died in the Genocide to be MARTYRS, but not because of the priests, or the church, but because they died for Hrist, from this perspective, Armenia is probably the land with the most martirs on Earth
@TheMistAnchorite What do you know about me? Do you know what I have asked? Do you know what I search for? What I found and what I still am in search for? Who gave you the right to speak about me , about my religion, about what I SHOULD or SHOULD NOT do??? I know my business with God, I know my business with Jesus! it’s not for you to decide what I should ask for. Remember Jesus is the prophet of our faith not anyone other mortal including some self proclaimed "saints".
@TheMistAnchorite I cannot be tempted by presents (light of the Orient, Land, riches, crowns or whatever) so don’t tell me about the supposed benefits of believing “your” doctrine. I like my HOLY Church believe in Jesus’s duality of divine and human, but a duality inseparable united and complete. If that is too hard to understand then you can continue calling us monophysite or neo-monophysite. But I tell you it’s not true and certainly not NEO as it is as old as our Church exists.
@PeopleOfAr sorry but the true orthodox christians are the hai-horom armenians ! the kings of Byzantium where all hai-horoms ! you decieve your history, and yes if you say:,,Jesus’s duality of divine and human, but a duality inseparable united and complete." you have monophisite thinking, because it depends what you think when you say ONE
@PeopleOfAr Various forms of Monophysitism taught that Christ only had one nature: that the divine had either dissolved (Eutychianism), or that the divine joined with the human as one nature in the person of Christ (Miaphysitism).
@TheMistAnchorite yes Miaphysitism but it's not Monophystism, it's much more complicated than to say it's ONE or the OTHER! This is not easy to understand for most, but that is our belief, like it or not. I respect your belief and the only thing I ask for in return is the same courtesy. I am not some lost soul that you need to safe, I am not to be pitied because I believe the way I do. I never insulted your church, but believe me if I wanted I could! There is enough dirt on your church.
@TheMistAnchorite Israelites did not get any land, they took it and they are still struggling the consequences. I don’t know why you insist on this issue so much, when even our Churches are getting along very well. Even if your motives are pure the way you execute them are everything but Christian.
@TheMistAnchorite You insult my church many times; equating it with murderers, create video’s proclaiming it is not Orthodox alienating many Armenians talking about our nature, supporting fascist Georgians just because they adhere to your doctrine etc.. And then you go around and demand I should convert to your way of thinking? You have a lot of anger in you and it is apparent even when you type. Maybe that is why you often seek serenity of beautiful pictures.
@TheMistAnchorite But as long as you speak from anger, frustration, arrogance and insulting our most sacred church, the only thing you inevitably will achieve is hatred. If you want to alienate Armenians go ahead and continue what you are doing, you will not convert one soul. You will only be a channel for those hateful individuals who wish to mock the Armenians and bring about the end of our nation.
@TheMistAnchorite Martyrs? Well some of whom you support want nothing more than to make all of Armenians become Martyrs forever. I remember when you respected Armenians a while back you received nothing but praises and respect back. People listened to you. That is the best way of bridging differences. With peace, respect and love, exactly like Jesus did.
@PeopleOfAr we dont speak of something becoming One, 2 dont become 1, 2 still reamins 2 but we speak of Hypostatic union. The two natures did not mix into a new third kind of nature. Although independent, they acted in complete accord; when one nature acted, so did the other. The natures did not commingle, merge, infuse each other, or replace each other. One was not converted into the other. They remained distinct (yet acted with one accord).
@TheMistAnchorite You are entitled to your perspective. But I still believe divine and human nature of Christ is inseparable. It did not merge, it never merged it always was united. I do not believe in singularities, the entire concept of understanding reality in single or multiple units is but a product of human logic. We humans think in units, because we are limited by our brains. But the nature of Christ is not subject to our logic.
@TheMistAnchorite It is what it is as it is. It is divine but it is also human. Just like in quantum mechanics a single particle can exist in multiple places at the same time. Reality does not bend to our logic, our logic must bend to understand reality. Thus nature does not have to be defined by a single explanation. Our limited capacity for understanding reality is why most have a hard time understanding the philosophical position of the Armenian church.
@TheMistAnchorite this is why we do not call ourselves MONOphysite and DIAphysite. We do not believe in singularities defining the nature of Christ. But this is not even important compared to the many things we do have in common. One day you will be surprised but our churches will work out the differences the Christian way. No one is lower or higher than anyone else we are all equals and it is certainly not for us mortals to judge and decide who will burn in hell and who reside in heavens.
@PeopleOfAr how can you believe in a church such as yours, when you have a saint in your calendar that killed saint Flavian ? how ? Jesus ... and because of Dioscorus, also others died like saint Protherius ! he is a saint in your church ! think of that ... if you think this is childish talk than you shall be judged, by your hay-horoms ancestors, the true church of Armenia
@PeopleOfAr to stay stick to my religion and not to help THE FIRST CHRISTIAN STATE, means ignorance, ignorance i tell you ... i am prepaired even to give my life, for Armenia, for at least 10 armenians to become hai-horom *(orthodox).
@PeopleOfAr say this every day Տէր Յիսուս Քրիստոս Որդի Աստուծոյ ողորմեա ինձ մեղաւորիս and God will help you and Armenia to see the light once more, and yes you shall become the Light of the Orient, this is your goal
@PeopleOfAr even so i still pray to saints like Saint Gregorius the illuminator, or saint HHripsime, Gaiani, the 40 martyrs of Sebasta lake, Nimphodora, Mitrodora, Mithrodora and other saints before your church adopted officially the hetic form of monophisitism. Your church is today neo-monophsitist, hope it will change, but for that accept the Calchedon synod ! i will pray each and every day to these armenian saints for you to return !
I especially pray that more Protestants would open their hearts and minds to Orthodoxy. During the Divine Liturgy, I feel peace and holiness around me. I feel that worshiping God in an Orthodox church is beyone anything else I've ever felt in a Protestant church. It's too bad so many of my friends think it is a cult or they are too ignorant to read a book to learn about this wonderful way of life. It is very frustrating.
@WBHkungfu thank you for the kind words. And yes it is not a cult, the mere fact that orthodoxy existed before Protestantism attests to its legitimacy. Armenia is the first Christian state, it became Christian in the middle of warring pagan Empires. Rome to the west, Persia to the east. Armenia became Christian when it wasn't "fashionable" when Christians were prosecuted throughout the world including Rome. And until today Armenian Orthodox doctrine hasn't changed. It's no cult it is the origin.
we would if it weren't for the worship of Mirriyam and there has to an opening also in the Orthodox church for the protestant church but as it right now there isn't, remember it's a 2 way street
@hannahr77 I think you are bit confused my friend. Eastern Orthodox do not worship "Mirriyam", whatever that may be? I have never heard of that word. Eastern Orthodox worship God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Protestants have to be open to the EO Church, not the other way around. Eastern Orthodoxy has been here since the Apostles, Protestantism has not.
@hannahr77 then your previous statement is very odd, because she is regarded a Saint in Protestant churches as well. What is it you want to say I don't get it? If you think we worship the virgin Marry more than Jesus you are very much mistaken. I know Catholics regard her very high maybe sometimes higher than Jesus but it is not the case with Easter Orthodoxy. I don't know what you are getting at with that strange statement.
@MYTHANDFICTION and finally you forget the countless times Armenian church saved our nation from destruction, during the genocide, in Sartarbad, during Soviet Times etc...etc... now those are FACTS!! Stop your nonsense rhetoric of what could have, should have, would have... Armenian Church is a blessing to our nation and we should be thankful our nation converted as early as they did and by our own doing not foreign power or colonization.
@MYTHANDFICTION it's not that simple your my friend. You make a lot of mistakes. First, you think that pre-Christian Armenian religion was purely Armenian one with no foreign influences. That is most probably not true. Secondly you assume if it where not for Christianity Armenian nation would just as easily survived into the modern times with pagan religion. this is most probably a false assumption. Just take a look at the region no nations with pagan religion survived and have a country.
@MYTHANDFICTION With all due respects, what to do? Rebuild the temples, disneyland style, and pretend to believe in something noone knows about? I don't know, throw flowers at the temples and say "we were stronger before a foreign religion was imported" ? I've heard many stories like that with regards to other parts of the world. Well, at least it forces people to study history and it's not that bad.
@Waymeeloow I agree completely. To me they can believe whatever they want, but it would be a shame to dismiss Christianity for it has become such an important part of our culture. Bringing us unity and saving us many times from our impending destruction. I agree it is was wrong to destroy pre-Christian temples and knowledge. But I’ve got a feeling they had valid reasons for doing so. They should not forget the countless blessing the Armenian church has brought to our people.
@Waymeeloow Not even from the point of religion but simply from the point of history. Besides they forget those early "pegan" religions were often borrowed from foreign elements aswel. Persian Zoroastrianism or Greek/Roman paganism etc. In fact the Christian faith has its roots in pagan religions itself. Early Egyptian/Babylonian religions. It has many connections like the story of the great flood and Adam and Eve. Everything humans do is borrowed from one place or another and developed further.
First, I would like to say I love this video very much. I have nothing to do with Armenia, as I'm French. I love how the tune and voices bring us back in times. Secondly, I am very sad to see so many anti-christian comments. We've heard them all. I come from a society where secularism and consummerism are people's creed, I see what life without a faith is. And I don't want it neither for me nor for my children. Long live the Armenian Church.
@Waymeeloow I don’t wonna say I’m practicing religion correctly cause I’m probably not or maybe there is no correct way. But I can say I find lots of comfort in it. Christianity has been a part of European culture for almost 2000 years now. It has brought us much good, and maybe equally bad things (we should not neglect that). But it is so arbitrary to say what would or could have been if not for Christianity. In fact in early pagan times there were more wars between each other than afterwards.
@PeopleOfAr you are totally right, let us learn from our mistakes. The Church (The Apostolic Churches) are divine because of their foundation, however they are human in their composition. Let us improve ourselves day after day, learning from the mistakes of the past, keeping Jesus in our heart. To the greatest glory of God, AMEN :)
@Waymeeloow thank you for your wonderful comment, I agree100% on the nihilistic consumerism taking over our societies. What sadness me is people seem to use religions as means of competition. We have become so accustomed to competing capitalism, selfishness and mindless worship of commercial youth culture and crooked political systems that we use the same way of thinking approaching religions today. Look at radical Islam, look at the misplaced urge to convert people of many religious out there.
@MYTHANDFICTION I understand your dissatisfaction with the origins of the ideology, but Armenian Church is different it is pat of our identity now. We are the same people it doesn't matter what we believe in pagan or Christian. Our people have the blood of Hayk and Aram. Armenian Apostolic Church has changed character over time, it became the protector of Armenians. Remember Cilicia, remember Artsakh remember Sartarabad where priests gave their lives in battle for Armenian survival.
@MYTHANDFICTION I know bro, but things went how they went there is no need to disrespect the church. Our people changed for whatever reason good or bad. Our people gave their lives for this religion, it got us much respect and influence at times. it's all part of our history, there is no need to love one or hate another. Pre-Christian Armenia was beautiful that is what my name represents, but Armenian Christianity is part of our history as well! We must respect all our ancestors is what I say.
Its a FACT Jesus story is based on myth. Its disheartening to see Armenians, having a 14, 000 year history, falling for a Semitic mythology, in turn, based on Egyptian and Sumerian mythology.
Facts...Grigor was NOT an Armenian. Armenians DID have letters before Mestrop (it was burned by the church and Grigor). Our temples were torn down with information about our ancient past. Our libraries were burned as well.
@ararmaya weather it's true or not, you better be thankful to the Armenian church for preserving our identity for so long. If it were not for Christianity you think there would be one Armenian left? Well think again. If not the Romans, Crusaders the Persians or Turks would have made you either the subject of the Christians or the Muslims long before anyone remembered Armenia. Christian faith gave us the strength to fight enemies and forge alliances in unification and preservation of our people.
fuckin' third world nation Armenians you are same LIAR, THE DOGS OF IMPERIALISM AND KILLER OF NEIGHBOORS An African tribe is more civilisated than YOU !
@Adram666 You fail, your the one that is cursed. Would you like me to go say your prayer music is cursed? Exactly as I thought. Now go back to baku you rat.
@chechimpa34 the first part wich begins with oud play, is from Levon Minassians's Album "A world Apart" the songs name is "Nare Nare" It's a wonderful song and you can find it here watch?v=6tPaTgg7nAA
@Axion3812 it's not always that they wear black cloaks, with ceremonies they wear more outspoken garments. But in daily life when they work they wear black garments. I suppose it is so to show the humility and simplicity of their souls before God. If there was a colorless color they would have worn that. But personally I also think it suits them as they are concerned with many spiritual mysteries. Black is a very mysterious color.
@Axion3812 One reason is that the monk's life is filled with tears of grief and struggles against sin.
The black dress contributes to the monk not impressed with his appearance but by virtue of. The elimination of the clothing he wore was as a secular and clothing with the standard attire of monks recruit mysterious character in the whole context of monastic perfection.
what can be better than recollect our broken spirits than letting our soul enter into of the spirit of a chant as such? Christian chant, authentic "Christian Music"...
@brutaldeathmetal01 you can look on my page, I've got a lot of "good" Armenian folk music in my favorites. Just from the top of the head though I would definitely recommend "Arax" (Awesome versions of classical Armenian folk music), "Haig Yazdjian" (great Oud master and singer), "Ara Dinkjian" (another awesome Oud player), "Arto Tuncboyaciyan" (great original artist with Armenian soul), "Levon Minassian" (imo. best Duduk player), "Night Ark" (including Ara Dinkjian). I can give you more later.
@Coshka77 But we are not perfect and I understand that we got a little fire in our blood, but let’s not overestimate ourselves. Let’s tone a little down ok. Let’s not hate others for their achievements otherwise we look jealous and arrogant. It actually works the opposite for us cause only the insecure try to boost their confidence by such futile empowerment attempts. If we are comfortable with ourselves we wouldn’t have the need to brag like that.
@Coshka77 But let’s not compare this with the Jews shall we lol otherwise we’d look really silly. Just a little tip of the iceberg. Einstein, Pasternak, Spinoza, even Jesus Moses etc… lol. Since 1901, Nobel Prizes have been awarded to 802 individuals, of whom at least 180 to people of Jewish ethnicity. Don’t get me wrong I above everyone adore the Armenians, and for such a small group of people living in such difficult conditions we certainly prevailed in many aspects.
@Coshka77 this is exactly what I mean, talking bad about Jews and such nonsense. I personally don't hear much bragging from the Jews about the amount of discoveries their people made, eventough it is substantial to say the least. Armenians did not invent MRI, an Armenian certainly was one of the pioneers but in no way THE inventor he didn't even receive the Nobel Prize for his contribution in the field, while others did. Unjust imo. but none the less.
@PeopleOfAr First of all, thank you for the beautiful video. Secondly, we Assyrians have the same "braggers"; yet, we don't have an inch of land we can call "Assyria". We can't even get along with one another... We can't even agree on how to make lulu kabob. I mean no disrespect to anyone. I'm part Armenian and love the sound of the Duduk, the best Armenian achievement, in my humble opinion. Thank you and may the universe bless you and your family.
@XTheTruthSeekerX It is childish to claim that Catholicism is a cult and has nothing to do with the Lord. It flies in the face of your claim by virtue of your lack of charity and humility in saying so. Plus, it is just plain ridiculous. Almost comical, except for its serious content. The Founder of the Orthodox Church may be holy, but, it's members certainly leave a bit to be desired if you are a representative thereof. Thank God you are not in charge.
@XTheTruthSeekerX If you are hateful and blackhearted, your affiliation with the first church is useless. Jesus said he could raise sons of from the very stones. So, what difference does it really make? Your bad attitude is what is childish and stupid.
@XTheTruthSeekerX Who or what is the Holy Church in your perception? You are making it sound as though anyone outside that specific, Armenian church is automatically doomed by default. You make no sense.
@XTheTruthSeekerX What does that mean, "as long as they follow the Bible?". The Bible came after the Church was formed. The depoosit of Faith as taught by the apostles is where the true Church lies. One Church, many members. All are branches of the same Body, but, insofar as doctrine strays from what was originally taught, the Body is weakened, and in some cases withers and dies from lack of nourishment.
of course the bible came after the church. but where is the problem?
the scripture, the writings existed before. the church just collected them.
nevertheless. i dont understand your point. the bible is authentic. the church is authentic and we never claimed to be perfect. perfect is just our head. jesus christ.
@BakinKoljac As far as the New Testament goes, they developed together, in parallel to each other. There is no problem, there. It is you who claim this or that about your church. What a shame, you leave a bitter taste in my mouth about your beautiful church b/c you are representing it, and you are not coming off as holy, or charitable, but, rather contentious. Maybe there is something psychological going on there. Certainly immature. But, that is no excuse.
@BakinKoljac You are supposed to strive for perfection instead of bashing people who may not have come to your level of understanding things. YOu can do a lot of damage to them, and your own soul. Your concern should be for yourself, and your own hide, and pray and exhort in love and charity for your neighbor, not condemn them. In doing that you condemn yourself. Read up on Fr. Seraphim Rose. He knows what he's taking about.
This video is a beautiful and holy tribute to the Apostolic Orthodox Church of Armenia. However, we also need to understand that the Catholic Church is also Apostolic from Peter and Paul. And that our Lord Jesus gave to Peter charge over his church untill the day when our Lord returns. Let pray that we will all learn to love a respect each other in his name, Amen.
@heartofgold1965 The orthodox church is the only real one my friend!
Catholocism is corrupted and evil, full of crime, greed and pedophiles! they should act harder against crime! and should read the bible instead of making their own rules!
God bless all orthodox Armanian brothers the nation who been true hell and back becouse of Turkish monstrums and their genocide.... Orthodox Black Mountain Land (Црна Гора) send their blassings upon you our orthodox brothers!!! Нек вас Бог покрије својим плаштом и сачува од свог зла Амин
I am an Echmiadzin Armenian and most of Armenians I know stem from that culture. You are making a mistake by comparing fast pace changing world of today with the world that was hundreds of years ago. Please study old Armenian composers (Khristafor Kara-Murza, Komitas, Makar Yekmalian) and folk songs (search youtube for Ruben Sasunci).
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I have participated in the CDs used in this video; the first voice is mine. I want to make it clear that I have no relationship with the people who have prepared this, and do not appreciate the mix. I have never been asked for permission either. This look quite illegal, as the CDs are protected.
I've mixed the songs myself for the video. What exactly are you unsatisfied about? And why are you being so upset? it's just an homage to our beautiful Church. I used music I could find and thought was very beautiful. I don't see any reasons for being mad about it, but please do tell me what you think is wrong.
btw, in case you are wandering it's not for any commercial usages what so ever. Nor did I make any cent out of this lol. It's just calms me down to listen en look at the pictures, and has the same effect on many others. That's it.
Dear AramKer.. I totally agree with you, you are right about the copyright issues... BUT, as a result of this amazing, outstanding, soul touching video now I know what AKN is and I purchased 3 of AKN Cd's myself from Istanbul, I couldn't find them here in the USA. This video touches my soul! I thank People of Ar for making this clip and for posting it on you tube..
The music arrangement in this video is interesting. Pay attention to music to change at 1:56, music that played for the pretty much last minute before (1:04) was Eastern/Turkic. It changes again at 3:22 to Turkic and actually ends with Turkic sound. This video goes back and forth between Turkic and Armenian music/sound/soul smoothly. It like a conversation Lets take this as a sign to find peace with each other.
kojali was your goverments fault, who did it so they could blame it on the armenians becouse the azeris were almost rioting in any city, ur goverment did it to distract your people on to a new enemy , and why not the armenians? RIGHT!
Warm hugs from a country wich still have open and bleeding wounds of the past...maybe not so much like armenians does, but still deep enough to cause pain...
nice music.

@PeopleOfAr you had that titulature internationallty recognised far in 1991 ! the ones that follow the same faith ass romanians, greeks, and so on where this minority of Hai-Horoms, wich the catolichos of Constantinopol calls them a sect, heretics, meaning that romanians, bulgarians greeks are all sects and heretics ! shame on that man

@TheMistAnchorite Just because you are Romanian doesn't mean you have the "best" and "truest" religion. You haven't chosen to be Romanian you were born as such. So stop this arrogance towards other fellow Christians. Just because you are Rumanian Orthodox doesn't give you the moral right to judge my faith or decide whether I should call myself Orthodox or not.

@PeopleOfAr Jesus Christ told us Matthew 7,7 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. Խնդրեցէ՛ք Աստծուց, եւ նա կը տայ ձեզ, փնտռեցէ՛ք եւ կը գտնէք, բախեցէ՛ք, եւ կը բացուի ձեր առաջ. Ask for God to show you the truth, you forgott to ask, and by that if you where born muslim, than you would be muslim your entire life, but if you tried to search, seeing what each religion has to say, than you would not be muslim anymore.

@TheMistAnchorite Like I explained that is the name of my Church it doesn't matter whether you don’t accept it or some Greeks don’t accept it or the Pope for that matter. I’m not converting to anything so stop this nonsense. What kind of childish thing is it to say that if I choose to convert to "your" doctrine God would grant me land? If that is the way you believe in God then I don’t want any part of it.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@PeopleOfAr God will grant you land ? yes He can , He is God ... exactly like He did when He gave the israelites their Home, a new Land, Sacred ! do you seek for a border made by humans ? i was born romanian, but i am converting every day, because i search, and by night i am orthodox, i put myself in your possition, into muslim possition, and others. If i where a person from a nother religion i would search 1 remember i am not orthodox only with name, but because i searched !

@TheMistAnchorite You complained earlier that Armenians treat you as second class, but all I see from you is treating those who are not "Orthodox" in your eyes as such. That is immature and entirely un-Christian imo. The Armenian Church is one of the oldest Christian churches , it existed before many of your so called Orthodox once. It is considered Oriental Orthodoxy and there is nothing wrong with that. We believe in the Miaphysite nature of Jesus divine and human inseparably united.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite Whether you or other churches believe this or not is not important to me nor to any of my brothers in faith. I respect all Christians and all goodhearted people. People have many ideas in this world and that’s a good thing, we should respect the diversity of opinions, not dogmatically eliminate all “diverging” thought, turning everyone blind to reason and free thought.

@PeopleOfAr more than that you say you are not monophisite ? than it is not a problem for your church to adopt the 4 , 5 ,6 ,7 synods, to accept the miracle of Saint Euphemya, to condamn Dioscorus ! your church condamned Eutichius the father of monophisitism, and that is great, but your church didnt condamn Dioscorus, who continued Eutichius's herecy , Dioscorus is his,,son" in herecy, and he is also a criminal !
TheMistAnchorite 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite You might know a lot about theology but I know about who I am and what my Church is. No mortal can tell for sure what the “right” way of believing in Jesus is, so all those quarrels are just childish ego fights. Besides our churches are themselves working hard on bridging the differences and accepting each other’s doctrines as they are. I’ll stick to my religion and you keep yours to yourself! Good day!

@PeopleOfAr keep your heretic religion monophisite and decive the hay-horoms, the true armenian orthodox , yes be ignorant of the REVELATION of the miracle of Saint Euphemya, this is satanic pride, and you will be judged for it ! hope your priests will renounce monophisitism once and for all
TheMistAnchorite 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite you sound like a spoiled brat who's not getting his candy! No matter how many times you repeat your intentional misguided remarks about my Churches position on the nature of Christ, it doesn't change the fact that it is Miaphysite not Monophysite. It's a pity to hear such insults from a fellow Christian especially when you are from Romania, one of my favorite countries.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@PeopleOfAr but the people of Armenia that dont know the truth are saved, but the priest of Armenia arent, especially those whho know the truth, and now my friend you know the truth, search who where the HAI-HOROMS. And yes i consider the 3 million armenians that died in the Genocide to be MARTYRS, but not because of the priests, or the church, but because they died for Hrist, from this perspective, Armenia is probably the land with the most martirs on Earth

@TheMistAnchorite I cannot be tempted by presents (light of the Orient, Land, riches, crowns or whatever) so don’t tell me about the supposed benefits of believing “your” doctrine. I like my HOLY Church believe in Jesus’s duality of divine and human, but a duality inseparable united and complete. If that is too hard to understand then you can continue calling us monophysite or neo-monophysite. But I tell you it’s not true and certainly not NEO as it is as old as our Church exists.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@PeopleOfAr sorry but the true orthodox christians are the hai-horom armenians ! the kings of Byzantium where all hai-horoms ! you decieve your history, and yes if you say:,,Jesus’s duality of divine and human, but a duality inseparable united and complete." you have monophisite thinking, because it depends what you think when you say ONE

@PeopleOfAr Various forms of Monophysitism taught that Christ only had one nature: that the divine had either dissolved (Eutychianism), or that the divine joined with the human as one nature in the person of Christ (Miaphysitism).
TheMistAnchorite 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite yes Miaphysitism but it's not Monophystism, it's much more complicated than to say it's ONE or the OTHER! This is not easy to understand for most, but that is our belief, like it or not. I respect your belief and the only thing I ask for in return is the same courtesy. I am not some lost soul that you need to safe, I am not to be pitied because I believe the way I do. I never insulted your church, but believe me if I wanted I could! There is enough dirt on your church.

@TheMistAnchorite Israelites did not get any land, they took it and they are still struggling the consequences. I don’t know why you insist on this issue so much, when even our Churches are getting along very well. Even if your motives are pure the way you execute them are everything but Christian.

@TheMistAnchorite You insult my church many times; equating it with murderers, create video’s proclaiming it is not Orthodox alienating many Armenians talking about our nature, supporting fascist Georgians just because they adhere to your doctrine etc.. And then you go around and demand I should convert to your way of thinking? You have a lot of anger in you and it is apparent even when you type. Maybe that is why you often seek serenity of beautiful pictures.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite But as long as you speak from anger, frustration, arrogance and insulting our most sacred church, the only thing you inevitably will achieve is hatred. If you want to alienate Armenians go ahead and continue what you are doing, you will not convert one soul. You will only be a channel for those hateful individuals who wish to mock the Armenians and bring about the end of our nation.

@TheMistAnchorite Martyrs? Well some of whom you support want nothing more than to make all of Armenians become Martyrs forever.

With peace, respect and love, exactly like Jesus did.

@PeopleOfAr we dont speak of something becoming One, 2 dont become 1, 2 still reamins 2 but we speak of Hypostatic union. The two natures did not mix into a new third kind of nature. Although independent, they acted in complete accord; when one nature acted, so did the other. The natures did not commingle, merge, infuse each other, or replace each other. One was not converted into the other. They remained distinct (yet acted with one accord).
TheMistAnchorite 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite You are entitled to your perspective. But I still believe divine and human nature of Christ is inseparable. It did not merge, it never merged it always was united. I do not believe in singularities, the entire concept of understanding reality in single or multiple units is but a product of human logic. We humans think in units, because we are limited by our brains. But the nature of Christ is not subject to our logic.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite It is what it is as it is. It is divine but it is also human. Just like in quantum mechanics a single particle can exist in multiple places at the same time. Reality does not bend to our logic, our logic must bend to understand reality. Thus nature does not have to be defined by a single explanation. Our limited capacity for understanding reality is why most have a hard time understanding the philosophical position of the Armenian church.
PeopleOfAr 2 weeks ago
@TheMistAnchorite this is why we do not call ourselves MONOphysite and DIAphysite. We do not believe in singularities defining the nature of Christ. But this is not even important compared to the many things we do have in common. One day you will be surprised but our churches will work out the differences the Christian way. No one is lower or higher than anyone else we are all equals and it is certainly not for us mortals to judge and decide who will burn in hell and who reside in heavens.

I especially pray that more Protestants would open their hearts and minds to Orthodoxy. During the Divine Liturgy, I feel peace and holiness around me. I feel that worshiping God in an Orthodox church is beyone anything else I've ever felt in a Protestant church. It's too bad so many of my friends think it is a cult or they are too ignorant to read a book to learn about this wonderful way of life. It is very frustrating.
WBHkungfu 5 months ago
@WBHkungfu thank you for the kind words. And yes it is not a cult, the mere fact that orthodoxy existed before Protestantism attests to its legitimacy. Armenia is the first Christian state, it became Christian in the middle of warring pagan Empires. Rome to the west, Persia to the east. Armenia became Christian when it wasn't "fashionable" when Christians were prosecuted throughout the world including Rome. And until today Armenian Orthodox doctrine hasn't changed. It's no cult it is the origin.

Stop your nonsense rhetoric of what could have, should have, would have... Armenian Church is a blessing to our nation and we should be thankful our nation converted as early as they did and by our own doing not foreign power or colonization.

@MYTHANDFICTION it's not that simple your my friend. You make a lot of mistakes. First, you think that pre-Christian Armenian religion was purely Armenian one with no foreign influences. That is most probably not true. Secondly you assume if it where not for Christianity Armenian nation would just as easily survived into the modern times with pagan religion. this is most probably a false assumption. Just take a look at the region no nations with pagan religion survived and have a country.

Well, at least it forces people to study history and it's not that bad.

@Waymeeloow I agree completely. To me they can believe whatever they want, but it would be a shame to dismiss Christianity for it has become such an important part of our culture. Bringing us unity and saving us many times from our impending destruction. I agree it is was wrong to destroy pre-Christian temples and knowledge. But I’ve got a feeling they had valid reasons for doing so. They should not forget the countless blessing the Armenian church has brought to our people.
PeopleOfAr 8 months ago
@Waymeeloow Not even from the point of religion but simply from the point of history. Besides they forget those early "pegan" religions were often borrowed from foreign elements aswel. Persian Zoroastrianism or Greek/Roman paganism etc. In fact the Christian faith has its roots in pagan religions itself. Early Egyptian/Babylonian religions. It has many connections like the story of the great flood and Adam and Eve. Everything humans do is borrowed from one place or another and developed further.

@Waymeeloow I don’t wonna say I’m practicing religion correctly cause I’m probably not or maybe there is no correct way. But I can say I find lots of comfort in it. Christianity has been a part of European culture for almost 2000 years now. It has brought us much good, and maybe equally bad things (we should not neglect that). But it is so arbitrary to say what would or could have been if not for Christianity. In fact in early pagan times there were more wars between each other than afterwards.

@PeopleOfAr you are totally right, let us learn from our mistakes. The Church (The Apostolic Churches) are divine because of their foundation, however they are human in their composition.

@Waymeeloow thank you for your wonderful comment, I agree100% on the nihilistic consumerism taking over our societies. What sadness me is people seem to use religions as means of competition.

Its a FACT Jesus story is based on myth. Its disheartening to see Armenians, having a 14, 000 year history, falling for a Semitic mythology, in turn, based on Egyptian and Sumerian mythology.
Facts...Grigor was NOT an Armenian. Armenians DID have letters before Mestrop (it was burned by the church and Grigor). Our temples were torn down with information about our ancient past. Our libraries were burned as well.
Wake up people. All this is myth.

@ararmaya weather it's true or not, you better be thankful to the Armenian church for preserving our identity for so long. If it were not for Christianity you think there would be one Armenian left? Well think again. If not the Romans, Crusaders the Persians or Turks would have made you either the subject of the Christians or the Muslims long before anyone remembered Armenia. Christian faith gave us the strength to fight enemies and forge alliances in unification and preservation of our people.

@Axion3812 it's not always that they wear black cloaks, with ceremonies they wear more outspoken garments. But in daily life when they work they wear black garments. I suppose it is so to show the humility and simplicity of their souls before God. If there was a colorless color they would have worn that. But personally I also think it suits them as they are concerned with many spiritual mysteries. Black is a very mysterious color.

@Axion3812 One reason is that the monk's life is filled with tears of grief and struggles against sin.
The black dress contributes to the monk not impressed with his appearance but by virtue of. The elimination of the clothing he wore was as a secular and clothing with the standard attire of monks recruit mysterious character in the whole context of monastic perfection.

@XTheTruthSeekerX If you are hateful and blackhearted, your affiliation with the first church is useless. Jesus said he could raise sons of from the very stones. So, what difference does it really make? Your bad attitude is what is childish and stupid.

@tjttzcspplt I said, There is salvation outside the Holy Church!

@XTheTruthSeekerX Who or what is the Holy Church in your perception? You are making it sound as though anyone outside that specific, Armenian church is automatically doomed by default. You make no sense.
tjttzcspplt 1 year ago
@tjttzcspplt No, you misunderstand.
There is salvation, even outside the Holy Church, the orthodox church is also: the russian orthodox church, the greek orthodox church etc. etc,
Protestands and Catholics can go to heaven to, aslong as they follow the bible.
Yet, they can not claim they are the one only treu church.
XTheTruthSeekerX 1 year ago
@XTheTruthSeekerX What does that mean, "as long as they follow the Bible?". The Bible came after the Church was formed. The depoosit of Faith as taught by the apostles is where the true Church lies. One Church, many members. All are branches of the same Body, but, insofar as doctrine strays from what was originally taught, the Body is weakened, and in some cases withers and dies from lack of nourishment.

@tjttzcspplt
of course the bible came after the church. but where is the problem?
the scripture, the writings existed before. the church just collected them.
nevertheless. i dont understand your point. the bible is authentic. the church is authentic and we never claimed to be perfect. perfect is just our head. jesus christ.

@BakinKoljac As far as the New Testament goes, they developed together, in parallel to each other. There is no problem, there. It is you who claim this or that about your church. What a shame, you leave a bitter taste in my mouth about your beautiful church b/c you are representing it, and you are not coming off as holy, or charitable, but, rather contentious. Maybe there is something psychological going on there. Certainly immature. But, that is no excuse.

thats what i said. we are not perfect. we never claimed to be perfect.
the more light there is, the more shadow there is.
BakinKoljac 1 year ago
@BakinKoljac You are supposed to strive for perfection instead of bashing people who may not have come to your level of understanding things. YOu can do a lot of damage to them, and your own soul. Your concern should be for yourself, and your own hide, and pray and exhort in love and charity for your neighbor, not condemn them. In doing that you condemn yourself. Read up on Fr. Seraphim Rose. He knows what he's taking about.

This video is a beautiful and holy tribute to the Apostolic Orthodox Church of Armenia. However, we also need to understand that the Catholic Church is also Apostolic from Peter and Paul. And that our Lord Jesus gave to Peter charge over his church untill the day when our Lord returns. Let pray that we will all learn to love a respect each other in his name, Amen.

@heartofgold1965 The orthodox church is the only real one my friend!
Catholocism is corrupted and evil, full of crime, greed and pedophiles! they should act harder against crime! and should read the bible instead of making their own rules!
No one can be christ on earth, not even the pope!
LORD is with us! ameen

I am an Echmiadzin Armenian and most of Armenians I know stem from that culture. You are making a mistake by comparing fast pace changing world of today with the world that was hundreds of years ago. Please study old Armenian composers (Khristafor Kara-Murza, Komitas, Makar Yekmalian) and folk songs (search youtube for Ruben Sasunci).

This comment has received too many negative votes show
I have participated in the CDs used in this video; the first voice is mine. I want to make it clear that I have no relationship with the people who have prepared this, and do not appreciate the mix. I have never been asked for permission either. This look quite illegal, as the CDs are protected.

I've mixed the songs myself for the video. What exactly are you unsatisfied about? And why are you being so upset? it's just an homage to our beautiful Church. I used music I could find and thought was very beautiful. I don't see any reasons for being mad about it, but please do tell me what you think is wrong.

btw, in case you are wandering it's not for any commercial usages what so ever. Nor did I make any cent out of this lol. It's just calms me down to listen en look at the pictures, and has the same effect on many others. That's it.

Dear AramKer.. I totally agree with you, you are right about the copyright issues... BUT, as a result of this amazing, outstanding, soul touching video now I know what AKN is and I purchased 3 of AKN Cd's myself from Istanbul, I couldn't find them here in the USA. This video touches my soul! I thank People of Ar for making this clip and for posting it on you tube..

The music arrangement in this video is interesting. Pay attention to music to change at 1:56, music that played for the pretty much last minute before (1:04) was Eastern/Turkic. It changes again at 3:22 to Turkic and actually ends with Turkic sound. This video goes back and forth between Turkic and Armenian music/sound/soul smoothly. It like a conversation Lets take this as a sign to find peace with each other.
