    Fascinating! Is this how an authentic Lithuanian pagan ritual would of really been conducted in pre-Christian times? I ask because I have a huge fascination with the Baltic Crusades (aka 'The Northern Crusades'). Also, what is it that the leader of the ritual is pouring on the fire and drinking at the end of the ritual?

    • @Balticfolk
      @Balticfolk  6 років тому +26

      In this instance I think it was malt drink (a similar beverage to beer, except that the alcohol content is less than 1%). But generally, mead, ale, beer or this malt drink (gira) can all be used as a token of respect for the goods and deaceased ancestors. If the sacrifice is performed not to a fire, then water and milk can be used too. Milk was commonly poured as a sacrifice to grass-snakes, even nowadays in the countryside people often do this.

    What I personally find interesting about this is it seems somewhat similar to Zoroastrianism! The interesting thing is that Zoroastrianism is the predecessor of the 3 main Abrahamic religions! However... I'm trying to talk about how they use fire to communicate to said god (Perkunas). Zoroastrians thought that fire was a symbol of purity, and god itself (The specific god mentioned is Ahura Mazda), and used it for specific rituals! (Such as praying, blessings, and even comtemplation) I just wanted to point out that observation... not only because it's a fun fact, but because every religion is derived from some sort of pagan belief! However this is my personal obvservation and you don't have to believe it! Anyways I hope you understand and enjoy my comment :)

    • @Balticfolk
      @Balticfolk  7 місяців тому

      Your observation is very much on point: both Baltic and Indo-Iranian people were the decendents of proto-Indo-European, so cultural similarities as well as linguistic were not superficial but, in fact, stemming from the same origin and fundamental.

  • @redtony58
    @redtony58 9 років тому +8

    That was interesting. I think the issue is not interpretation, but the creation of a new orthodoxy. I've never been convinced that pagan ''worship'' isn't ultimately monotheistc. These people lived very difficult (and different) lives from the ones that we live, so the structures of their ceremonies were bound to and given meaning by tradition. It's not the same when you finish your ceremony and drive home in your car to a flush toilet.

    • @Balticfolk
      @Balticfolk  9 років тому +3

      ***** When you talk about the possibility of Baltic paganism having been monotheistic do you have in mind the theory about Praamžius through polytheistic monism or something different?

    • @redtony58
      @redtony58 9 років тому +2

      Baltic folk Before Zeus there was Cronos, Before Cronos,Uranus, who was the husband AND son of Gaia. We know from archeology that the ancient hebrews (supposed monotheists) had household gods. Somewhere in Genesis, it says God became displeased with sacrifices to him when it BECAME idolatry. And I think that's the point. Religious beliefs were part of everyday day life. You approach the monad through what you know. Wind, fire, water, etc. We do the same thing today, Father Christmas or Santa Claus is that kind of ''god''. I think we tend to use the term ''worship'' in a monotheistic way that Baltic pagans would have seen as superstitious idolatry. So yes, I do think there is a polytheistic monism at the core of baltic beliefs. I don't know anything about a formal theory, just what I observe people doing.

      Gelezinis Vilkas Well there are indisputable records showing polytheism and while many pagan peoples did have a God who was the highest to say it was monism is almost completely laughable.Just take a look at Greece we know philosophy aside that Zeus was never seen as some Brahman type figure with Apollo,Ares,Heracles etc all being part of him.Even in Egypt with the creator Gods Amun,Atum,Ptah,etc all the other Gods are called their children in the unas texts and the pyramid texts.The title father of the Gods comes up a lot and even the myths reflect polytheism not monism.

      +Ivan Petryshyn I see your point but these people are not overly concerned with meticulously recreating what once was, they rather seem to be acting out what they feel here and now - their intention is to let the sparkle that is still warm (the part of paganism which has not been forgotten) to burn freely, not to suffocate it by over-acting, so viewing it from an outsiders point of view it seems genuine enough.

      Ivan Petryshyn going by that logic you might as well dismiss the whole Lithuanian language as the earliest _written_ attestations only come from the early 16th century. And yet linguists consider it to be the most archaic living Indo-European language - a sharp contrast with, e.:g. English which has developed a written tradition very early on but Old English is barely intelligible with Modern English. Lack of written tradition often means that the oral tradition is strong which appears to be better at conserving ancient spirit. Look at Sanskrit: it was passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth retaining many features of proto-Indo-European language but once it was written down it gradually developed into Hindi which barely resembles it.

      Warren, I understand that it may be difficult to understand from outsde but Perkūnas as a deity does not necessarily mean that people are literaly supposed to pray for the natural phenomenon of lightning. It's a bit more abstract than that. The same holds true for the rest of Baltic pantheon worship.
