Tribal People React to Heilung In Maijdan For The First Time

[@TheMarikBathory]

When Heilung travels to perform their rituals (what they call their shows) they always invite the local indigenous tribe to perform with them. you don't go to someone else's lands and invoke your gods without first asking permission. During the closing piece, usually hamrer Hippyer sees the locals return to the stage with them to dance and sing together. An amazing display of mutual respect.

[@PRC533]

That makes complete sense now that you say it, but I hadn't thought about it until then. There is a very vibrant indigenous culture(s) where I live and this is exactly the kind of respect they would show as well.

[@freyjablue.]

[@Kuhmuhnistische_Partei]

To be fair, Heilung doesn't really preserve any existing culture, they constructed a new one on the basis of archaeological findings. And yes, I know the artists do actually identify with this kind of old Germanic culture and do those rituals as a serious thing and all, but it's still a recreation with a lot of freedom, not a continuation of anything and they also do a lot of stylistic choices that are clearly for the sake of the show and not because it's more authentic.

[@WinnieTheJew]

Yeah @Kuhmuhntische_Partei I read the wikipedia article too, I was just quoting and trying to say something nice.

[@FredrikSkievan]

@@Kuhmuhnistische_Partei Not one single culture is preserved. Every culture has evolved over thousands of years and you'd be right to say it's not the exact same but it is definitely a continuation of sorts. Roman Hellenism was somewhat different from Antiquity Greek Hellenism but both are still regarded as the same religion and that the Romans continued and even completed/expanded the religion.

[@mikerope5785]

I find it amazing that the tribesmen interpreted correctly, that the singing was a kind of call to a higher power to assist with strength in a time of weakness, authentic music is definitely a language that can cross cultures.

[@ju_dont_care6837]

the fact, these people having such a diffrent cultural background and beliefs compared to what they saw and still managed to keep the respect and appreciation for something unknown and diffrent, is just wholesome and MANY MANY MANY modern and so called "advanced and intellectual" societys could learn so much of them. Prayers and blessing to all these kind souls

[@EirikrTinkerTries]

Trying to find similarities, not differences, is what makes us human. Finding differences, not similarities, drives monetized news cycles. It’s quite literally non-human and/or antihuman

[@kolaiktomi]

I'm a Native American mixed Nordic, lets me grow a patchy beard. I've been in contact with Heilung for years drawing similarities with our Native traditional garbs and even music and art as elder peoples on this island. It brings me so much happiness that your people in Pakistan also find their art and music moving. It's unifying, good medicine not understanding the language but enjoying the melodies and rhythms. My tribe, Oglala Lakota Oyate. oyâte kin wičhúnkičičhiyapi čhantétanhan wičhúnkičičhiyapi

[@InfantryWife85]

I don't have one drop of Native American blood (100% neon white German/Scandinavian heritage, haha) BUT I've always been drawn to the Native American culture, I guess because we share SO many similarities in how we view nature, our connection with the earth and with the tribal culture. It's always been fascinating to me that two cultures who developed an ocean apart and never met until the Norse landed in Newfoundland could have so much in common.

[@kolaiktomi]

@@InfantryWife85 Right? Tens of thousands of years of separation but only religion separates the many tribes across the globe but are still unifying. "don't be a dick to others, your enemies are still welcome to a good meal in your home, we're all universally just looking out and trying to feed our kids and elders; those who can't work for themselves." Basic decency. Monetary gains are wars fought corporately so let them have their spats, no need to bring anyone else into the greed cycle. We just want to keep our kids fed, safe and educated. The similarities in cultures across this weird world are just foot notes. Many tend to notice the taboo or differences more and this makes an impact on their perception thus making separation. The positives are overlooked for political gains and villainy. You don't have to be a Native American to know that you are still a relative and though we're still in the midst of a genocide, we'll still invite the ones responsible for slowly killing us off and destroying our sacred lands to a nice brunch or splash around in the lakes or something. It's easier to forget about the beauty and wonder our people protect when you're in in office in a city. Decisions in politics regarding our lands should be made outdoors in all elements of nature.

[@kolaiktomi]

@@InfantryWife85 I currently have a fly in my studio that is annoying the piss out of me. My Dutch bosses often annoy me but I love the hell out of them. My sister has a child with a Chinese/Philippine guy who can't hold a job and abandoned them. We may be genetically Native American with a little Viking in us but cultural influence in politics has more of an impact than what our blood is made of. We Natives see relatives in everything. I'm not going to kill the fly that pesters me the same as I won't slaughter the peoples who are actively committing genocide on my people. Anger, yes, envy, maybe, but jealousy is a concept others brought over. Revenge is out of our hands. Like lame deer, we hold no arguments to defend our treaties as no one fucking cares about our ways in these lands. It's whatever. We're being killed off in every administration and for hundreds of years of promising to protect us, no one has ever had the balls to actually do so. I see the same in many nations and New Zealand is doing a cool thing. We're treated like savages and portrayed as such through the architects of dialogue. Millions of broken warriors and artisans but we're still fighting back.

[@justmecl4507]

Show them the official video for heilung - anoana - is beautiful and full of deep meanings , symbolism and spirituality - would love to hear their reaction to this amazing video

[@Melonlordrinrei]

What I love about Heilung is the inclusion of small details you wouldn't notice unless you knew the historical context, like how they repeat the runes nine times, with nine being a very important number as it was the number of days and nights that Odin hung himself as a sacrifice (to himself) to gain knowledge in the form of the runes. Wardruna had a list of the runes in songs, my favourite being Fehu which means 'fortune' (mostly in cattle form) and is a song warning about a beast that comes to take all the fortune because they hoarded it

[@DripTiles]

I love how everyone is mesmerized by Maria’s vocals, but when all members of the band synchronize as one the songs are very powerful. If you close your eyes while listening to them your mind will be taken back to those times.

[@JoshuaC0rbit]

Glad our Trybal friends appreciated it!

[@rpoutine3271]

The interesting thing is that all these deities are coming from the old Indo-European gods. What we call ''God'' today is the ''Daylight Father'' (Dyeus Phater) of the ancient Indo-Europeans who separated ways, some went to Europe and some went to the Iranic tribes and India. The Hindu, Greek, Germanic and Gaulic pantheons are all related to that ancient religion and ultimately Yahweh/God/Allah is also related to that religion and is basically Dyeus Pather The name changed as languages evolved. Dyeus Phater to Zeus Patēr (Leader of the Greek pantheon), Dyeus Pather to Dies Pater (Old latin) to Iūpiter/Jupiter in latin(Leader of the Roman pantheon). Dyeus to Dyaus/द्यौष् and Dyaus-pitr/ द्यौष्पितृ (Vedic pantheon leader, Sanskrit name) Dyeus to Dieu (French Catholic name for God) Dyeus to Dewos (Proto-Celtic) The proto-Celtic ''sindos dago-dēwos ollo fātir'' became'' in Dagdae Oll-athair'' in Old Irish, Dewos thsu becoming the Irish god ''Dagdae'' with the ''Dag'' in ''dago'' and dēw becoming ''dae''.

[@zappasmoustache23]

I love Muharam he really feels and understands. This channel is so important, really special.

[@LegendaryCollektor]

The old ways are one my father has raised me in. My mother raised me a Catholic, my father raised me to know the Nordic Pagan Gods. Im a bit of a weird blend of heretic in a way. I find it fascinating hearing your reactions.

[@InfantryWife85]

Same. My father was raised Protestant (his family was originally from Germany) but he didn't make us go to church or anything because he'd always said he'd grown tired of the hypocrisy of it (do what you want, go to church on Sunday and "get wiped clean", rinse and repeat). My mother was from Iceland and even though Christianity is well rooted in Iceland and she was raised Lutheran, they also maintained a respect for the old ways as well. My mother taught me about the old gods in stories, etc. as I was growing up but as an adult, I struggled under Christianity and when I was seeking something different, my blood called me back to my roots (Norse/Germanic Paganism) and I've been much more at peace since. But yes! You're so right. I LOVE watching their reactions to things because they're so respectful about it even though alot of things are so different than their culture...but they're also quick to see the similarities (like the instruments).

[@c.w.5221]

As always they have great insight. Abdul, She is indeed giving a lesson, Sir, and representing her culture. Muharam: you always resonate with the music the way I do, it is a delight to see. Im so glad to see more people discovering Heilung. I was so excited to see them in concert recently.

[@SleepywitchVibes]

We are all connected, sirs. Our cultures intertwine at one point of our lives in the past.

[@LeviathanWebWorks]

Something that they might like to know about, with the way the singers raise the notes and have that sudden vibratos, and halts, is that the songs were sung in fjords and deep valleys that make those sounds echo, some would echo so well you would hear as if the mountains sang back. Just thought they might think that is interesting and give some clues as to why the language and music is played the way it is.

7:35 Our ancestors did not pray to animals, but more to trees. Trees had a special importance in representing the entire world and life itself. Later religions felled those trees specifically and erected their own temples where they have stood or used them as building materials for them, as a sign of dominance.

They need to understand that where they come from is a very cold place. and nights went for months. There was no sun for months. Not only that, But the animals are different. So, farming seasons were super short, and they had to rely mostly on meat from hunts to survive hunger. Not to mention neighboring tribes raiding their supplies. Life in the north is harsh. where you may die of the sun. They died from being frozen. Total opposite. Culture is basically the same. You look to the land and respect it. You look to the seasons and work with it. and you look to the skies and see the same moon. Wise men will try to understand it and give guidance. It's the oldest worldwide religion in the world. Animism... They worship the world. Trees, plants, animals, seasons, stars. sun and the moon. It all works together as a balance for life.
