ok i need ur help im odinist and my question is were do regular people go wen they die warriors go to vallah and freyas hall but wat aboput odinist doctors or watever they r just regular people that dont die in battle were do they go

[Vinterulf]

@disturbedzack That was the parrt in the video about Hel (not a bad place at all), more local ideas about ancestors going into mountains or inhabiting certain places.

[Vinterulf]

I believe the myths and legend try to describe in human terms as best as something otherworldly can possibily be described in a way we can fathom. i.e. although Thor may best be symbolized and imagined in the human mind with a red beard, it does not mean that I think it is literally a red bearded guy in the sky. Is he a real, live sentient entity? Yes.

Thanks for the responce.

PS I think somebody may be vote botting your videos, as they all start of highly rated and suddenly drop to two stars :/

[Vinterulf]

Yes, I think you are right. Since usually I get ratings slowly...then all of the sudden there's a whirl of bad ratings in a single day.

the dead are to be remembered.

Living is the expeirence.

I like that.

Thank you for your videos. When Asatru found me, my heart and mind felt like an ancient house being opened. There is still dust and cobwebs, but this knowledge and wisdom you share fearlessly helps with the cleanup and reconstruction.

There is so much i need to figure out, and so much for me to do. I can't express in words how much your videos have helped me find not only who i am, but who i want to be.

So Hel is getting the same bad press as Hades. Underworld deities are depicted as evil because the Christian Underworld is a evil punishment realm, even though only small parts of other Underworlds are evil punishment places.

Love the idea that Valhall is linked to the mountains of the Ancetors, very interesting.

Thor's afterlife? I think there is no doubt there, if you want more historic evidence there is a runic memorial stone asking Thor to look after the deceased's spirit - good enough for me.

Wassail!

Great vid, informative, and easy for the beginner. May The Deities bless you for giving people the option of true religion.
