This painting by B.West depicts the legend of Bladud, a British king who was said to have founded the city of Bath. The story tells how Bladud discovered the healing properties of Bath's waters. The prince was exiled because he suffered from leprosy. Working as a swineherd, Bladud discovered that his pigs were cured when they wallowed in the mud of the hot springs. When he bathed himself Baldud was cured returned to the court.

Father Jove, is there none of the gods who will take pity upon me, and save me from the river?
As soon as he had spoken thus, Neptune and Minerva came up to him in the likeness of two men, and took him by the hand to reassure him. Neptune spoke first. “Son of Peleus,” said he, “be not so exceeding fearful; we are two gods, come with Jove’s sanction to assist you, I, and Pallas Minerva. It is not your fate to perish in this river
Now the son of Tydeus was in pursuit of the Cyprian goddess, spear in hand, for he knew her to be feeble and not one of those goddesses that can lord it among men in battle like Minerva or Enyo the waster of cities, and when at last after a long chase he caught her up, he flew at her and thrust his spear into the flesh of her delicate hand. The point tore through the ambrosial robe which the Graces had woven for her, and pierced the skin between her wrist and the palm of her hand, so that the immortal blood, or ichor, that flows in the veins of the blessed gods, came pouring from the wound

The Ancients never doubted that Gods were present in the world, ready to show themselves when necessary. The idea of a deity being separate from the world just hanging out above and beyond it is a product of abrahamic anti-theology.

The biggest threat to our authentic pathway has always been New Agism, and it will continue to raise its ugly head as long as we allow it to.
But I don’t see this having long term sustainability. New Agism is basically a Boomer phenomenon, and all that is dying out, thankfully. Now we see people having real theological debates, forming camps on philosophical differences (which is a GOOD thing!), and really wanting to understand the nature of divinity. This is the future of our faith, and these great men and women are paving the way.

Imagine seeing majestic statues of powerful European Gods like that all around you. The folk would be much stronger and pround of their traditions. Say what you want about statues, but they really can either uplift or demoralize us.

You knew this was coming. Platonism is a dead end for paganism, as the Greeks themselves agreed. It's also a dead end for nationalists, and especially for traditionalists.

The Socratic hero was a conscious attempt to replace the Homeric hero with a genteel one more to the tastes of a weak and exhausted society that had just lost a war and was about to become a permanent vassal state. The Owl of Minerva flies at dusk—a society becomes self-reflective and critical of its own tradition just before it dies.

To be a heathen is to be ethnic. Ignoring ethnic traditions is pure subversion.

Men come and go as leaves year by year upon the trees. Those of autumn the wind sheds upon the ground, but when spring returns the forest buds forth with fresh vines.
Homer
The great and terrible wave gathered about Achilles, falling upon him and beating on his shield, so that he could not keep his feet; he caught hold of a great elm-tree, but it came up by the roots, and tore away the bank, damming the stream with its thick branches and bridging it all across; whereby Achilles struggled out of the stream, and fled full speed over the plain, for he was afraid.

Diomed then threw, and Pallas Minerva drove the spear into the pit of Mars’s stomach where his under-girdle went round him. There Diomed wounded him, tearing his fair flesh and then drawing his spear out again. Mars roared as loudly as nine or ten thousand men in the thick of a fight, and the Achaeans and Trojans were struck with panic, so terrible was the cry he raised.

Today is Holodomor rememberance day. It was a real genocide of European people and was organized by those who never suffered any real persecution, but have always claimed to. The first nation to recognize Holodomor as a genocide was Reich Germany while Israel denies it such status to this day.

Scenes of the pre-Indo-European culture of Europe; Iberian Civilization. 🇪🇸 Reconstructive art by José Emilio Toro Pareja and Angus McBride (1931-2007).
These illustrations are based primarily on archaeological finds of statues and grave goods from southern and eastern Spain. Iberian civilization was one of the native cultures of western Europe, that remained after Indo-European peoples, such as the Celts, proliferated throughout, and took over most the continent. It was almost as ancient as the most ancient civilization of Europe: The Minoan Civilization of Crete and the Aegean. Cities had appeared in southern Spain as early as before 3,000 B.C.
Archaeologists have found evidence that early on, Iberian culture was matriarchal; ruled by queens. It was an urban culture, heavily centered on commerce, but also reliant on agriculture, and animal husbandry. It was heavily influenced by the cultures of ancient Greece and the Phoenicians, its main partners in commerce. Both colonized the peninsula (Phoenicians founded the cities of Cádiz, Málaga, Almuñécar, Abdera, Cartagena, and possibly also Seville and Córdoba, while Greeks built Ampurias, and a city called Hemeroskopeion, the location of which is now unknown), and the Phoenicians even undertook campaigns of military conquest (237-218 B.C.). These were interrupted and reversed by the Romans in the Second Punic War, however. Celts also came in contact with Iberians from the 12th or 11th century B.C. onward, when they invaded the peninsula from France and are believed by some to have been responsible for the collapse of the bronze age Iberian Argaric Culture. Celtic influence on the Iberians included adoption of horses for warfare, new funerary rituals involving immolation of the deceased, and possibly also the switch from matriarchal governments to having polities led by men; though women continued to be prominent as priestesses.

The word sirin itself is obviously comes from siren and is as foreign to a Slavic language as something like a Minotaur.

Sirin bird
Fake folklore
Some consider Sirin birds to be a part of Slavic folklore, but in reality it's taken from Hellenic tradition and was used only in christian literature. Orthodox monks were somewhat familiar with Greek myth and used some elements of it in their writing.

Plato showed himself a spiritual heir of Xenophanes when he criticized the traditional lore and great educators of Greece Homer and Hesiod. Plato treated myth and legends as fiction only a pleb could believe (note that no Hellenic priest ever expressed such views). Also just like Xenophanes Plato called for a life of ascetism. Also was a proto-communist (no private property and abolishment of family).
Overall, Xenopahanes, Socrates and Plato were subverters of Greek tradition. Saying otherwise is either ignorant or malicious.
When Homer invokes the Muse and asks her to instruct him; when Hesiod tells us that he has heard the song of the Muses and was ordained poet by them, themselves; then we are accustomed to see in this no more than the necessary result of a belief in the gods...
Whether we believe in Apollo and the Muses or not, we must acknowledge that the living consciousness of the presence of a higher Being necessarily is part of creative acts in the high style, and that our judgment can never do justice to the phenomenon of this type of creation if it ignores this fact.

In Slavic tradition there's a lot of different spirits belonging to and managing different parts of the house such as stables or sauna.

christianity is universalism. everyone can join. the point of christianity is total human interchangeability- the erasure of all individuated tribes or groups... so the point is to destroy the nations (goyim) that jews have had a grudge against since forever by giving everyone in the world a single anti-tribalism universalism.
every single person is a potential convert to the anti-nation (christianity) so that's why you're supposed to "love your enemy"- they might be a potential convert to universalism and universalism itself dictates that your enemy is included with you, that there is no tribal line between you and them.
