" But I truly like nice shapes of heads, and I like them even more now as they are really scarce commodities in Poland. Actually I have never ever seen so many flat heads as I see when I am walking streets of Warszaw. I don’t know where this comes from but its a fact. At one point I started doubting my own opinion but I was reassured that I am right when my sister came over. I did not tell her anything, I was just waiting. And it came. After couple of days she told me if I have ever realised how many flat headed men there is around. "  -- iwanttobeafool.com/2014/04/hello-berlin-good-bye-flat-head

Learning A Foreign Language Stimulate Cerebral Growth

https://www.science20.com/anton_lucanus/does_learning_a_foreign_language_stimulate_cerebral_growth-255643

The thought that learning language stimulates brain growth may never have crossed your mind, but the truth is that language learning challenges your brain and stimulates it to stay pliable and strong. Regardless of your age, learning a new language can boost your brain’s function in more ways than one and we’ll explore all the benefits of learning a foreign language and how it directly affects the brain.

Bankomat



_____


=====
It's easy enough to avoid Euronet ATMs and just use the ones associated with actual banks. If the screen on any machine asks if you want to use dynamic currency conversation, just say no. It may be couched in terms of "do you wish to use the confirmed rate of exchange?" - no, you do not want this.
===

It is very important to take the cash out WITHOUT CONVERSION. ATM will ask you if you want the amount converted with guaranteed rate or no conversion. Banks rip off foreign users this way. If you choose 'conversion' you will get a rate much, much lower, often losing 25% of the transactions. This also applies to retail transactions where they will ask you if you want to pay in PLN or your bank card currency. ALWAYS pay in Polish currency (PLN)   ....Also, try to use large bank ATMs such as ING, Deutche Bank, PKO etc.

===

always select the “withdrawal without conversion” option

====

dont use ING or that gov bank.

  ....PKO and Pekao didn't charge me anything.

Millennium?

====

Standard max. withdrawal from a Polish ATM is 1000 PLN in one transaction, up to 5000 PLN per day. I am not sure if this applies to foreign cards though.

http://www.kantorgrosz.pl/

===

The reason of limit is pure technical: the size of the withdraw slot and notes that are inside the machine (30-40 notes in one operation, depending on machine).

===

Most of the ATMs I use now offer me a menu where they specify the exchange rate. There is always a button to decline that exchange rate. If you accept, that rate is being determined by the bank who owns the ATM you are using, and it's consistently awful. Never accept it.


Interestingly - I just received a new debit card this week and I have browsed through the little pamphlet that came with it (which I always ignore). My card is a Schwab One Visa Platinum Debit Card and yes I do need to be careful to only use it in an ATM with a Visa or Plus emblem (guess I've been lucky all these years).

Schema : Religio Proto-Indo-European Est Ab Origine

Schema :  Religio Proto-Indo-European Est Ab Origine

By on
"Nietzsche had declared, quite correctly, that Christianity was 'the revenge of the Jews on the Gentiles': the Gentiles had taken from them their homeland, and the Jews had got even by foisting upon the former their religion. And Blake had perceived, no less correctly, that 'all nations believe the jews' code and worship the jews' god,' and had pronounced in conclusion that 'no greater subjection can be.' Inevitably the question arose: Can the Western White man, ..., ever fully repossess his own soul until he has thrown off this alien religion [which "the father of Liberalism" John Locke rationalized into universalistic secular Liberal concepts]?" (Which Way Western Man)
"A Jewish rebel-prophet is the central figure in your religious worship. We pulled down your idols, cast aside your racial inheritance, and substituted for them our God and our traditions. No conquest in history can even compare with this clean sweep of our conquest over you” ... "And when you talk about Jewish conspiracies I cannot for the world understand why you do not mention the destruction of Rome and the whole civilization of antiquity concentrated under her banners, at the hands of Jewish Christianity." ... "But the upheaval which brought Christianity into Europe was – or at least may easily be shown to have been – planned and executed by Jews as an act revenge against a great Gentile state." —Marcus Eli Ravage
  • Aborigine European-identity insight :  Proto-Indo-European ( B.C.), originally (ursprünglich), from the beginning ("est ab origine"), had the same supreme god ("Herr/lord god", "father/Väter"—as in "ancester/Väter worship").  Filling the "sovereign function" over other gods ;  a sovereignity upon which kingship (rig/rik/rex/raja) could be built. All of these 9+ branches of Indo-European languages, etymologically, reference the same oldest supreme, "shinning/daylit/sky/heaven"-father, god/deva/dewos/NIXtheos/divine—the same proto-IE root stem word meaning "shining"/bright (deity, wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyeus ;  but English "day" is from a different root).  —All these "daylit" names are dialectical variants of the same word. :  

    *Dago-deiwos "daylit/shining-divinity" (Celtic)  |  Týr/Tiw/*Ziu/Tyz vater ᛏ (Teutonic)  |  Ju-piter (Latin)  |  Zeû[s] Pater europa ("wide-eyed" thus all-seeing) "our common ancestor” (Hellenic)  |  Deivos, later called Rod (Slavic)  |  Dievas (Baltic)  |  Tiwaz (Anatolian)  |  Dyeus Pita "the all-seeing god" (Vedic Sanskrit)  |  Daeva (Avestan Zend).  (Suffix us/os/os/as/az/óss meaning "god".) 

    • Or, as the later, Iron Age, Julian the Apostate, the last non-Christian Roman emperor (Constantinople), writing on pope Jupiter allegorically wrote (lifted from Plato), ...the Sun is the parent of us all... ...[like] 'The One,'... ...the light of the Sun bears the same relation to things visible as Truth does to things intelligible. ...this Whole... ... ...One indeed is the Creator of all things... ... ...the source... ... ...soul... ... ...the 'Invincible Sun,'...  (tertullian.org/fathers/julian_apostate_1_sun.htm) ᛋ
    • Rg-Veda [the earliest text] shows that the different divinities are the manifestations of that One (brahman). This notion of a Single One, of which all divine and mundane phenomena are manifestations, is reinforced by the acknowledgement that, as the refrain in III, 55, states plainly: mahád devanám asuratvám ekam 'Single is the great god-power (asuratvá) of the gods.'
    • A Homeric epithet of Zeus (meaning light) is εὐρύοπα (eurúopa), meaning “wide vision.” (In current English jargon, "the light of consciousness.") This epithet is the etymology of Europe itself, through Εὐρώπη (Európē) — a woman abducted by Zeus. The Rg-Veda presents Dyáuṣ (meaning light) as the “all-knowing god” as well. Thus, equipped with this power, the Rg-Veda acknowledges the greatness of the sky-god, whom is referred as máh, “great”. A similar Homeric epithet, μέγας (mégas), is often applied to Zeus.
  • In Teutonic, Baltic, and Slavic mythologies, the world was represented by a sacred tree, usually an oak.  "True" etymology is "tree" (Celtic, Teutonic, Baltic).  "The original meaning of the root was doubtless "to be firm, solid," and from it is derived not only the family of English TREE but also that of English TRUE. Note that the semantic evolution has here been from the general to the particular, from "solid" to "tree" (and even "oak" in some dialects), and not the other way around."  And the bṛh-, in brahman means "to be firm, solid, strong".  ln the native religion of Baltic Latvia, the word "faith" means tree (as does the same root for Celtic "druid", tru-wit) ;  their ancient symbol is Austras Koks "sun-tree" (Baltic) (and their other symbol Swastika 卍).  Akin to the Irmin-sûl (Teutonic) meaning Aryaman(Vedic)-schaft (akin to Yggdra-sil) pillars devoted to the supreme daylit-god, ref. Widikund A.D. ; "Jupiter Columns" (Latin) ;  and Kalpavriksha (Vedic) tree-of-life/"world tree" or the Ashvattha bodhi tree (Rg-Veda, the earliest surviving Indo-Aryan text, and Upanishads) ;  and axis mundi (Latin) meaning pillar of world ;  Maypole (Teutonic, Baltic)/"Indra-pole" (Indradhvaja).  The tree, that firey snaking rotating pilar, is Brahman in the Atman, god in the soul, being, "the supreme identity" of the Perennial Philosophy of paganism.  This “primordial power”, seen by yoga or hallucigens, is often rendered symbolically as a serpent and Evola tells us that it is also rendered symbolically as the “world tree.”
    "To the Ancient Egyptians, the Tree of Life represented the hierarchical chain of events that brought everything into existence."
    Sweden tapestry
    Viking Age tapestry, World Tree.
    • Karma/Rtá (Vedic) from root kwer means to do ;  in Vedanta, karma means nothing more than "cause and effect"—Örlög, wyrd ;  and "word" (to name/verbal) shares an etymology to wyrd (fate) (wordsense.eu/wurd from root wert means to turn or rotate, lit. "to become"—"It seems, explains Jean Varenne, that the Indo-Europeans professed that fate is in fact the expression of the necessary chain of our acts (law of causality);" and Örlög meaning ur-law (Teutonic) | logos meaning law/coda/word (Hellenic), dán loaned from Latin don (Celtic), and the Fates/Moreia from root bha means voice (Hellenic), the norn sisters.
      "‘Dost thou know, [,,,], that puller (ruler) within who from within pulls (rules) this world and the other world and all beings?’ [...] ‘He [...] who knows that thread and him who pulls (it) from within, he knows brahman, he knows the worlds, he knows the devas, he knows the Vedas, he knows the bhutas (creatures), he knows the Self, he knows everything.’" —Upanishads
    • Dharma (Vedic), darna (Baltic), and harmonia (Hellenic) all cognate to "ar-" meaning "to fit together" ("reconciliation of opposites").  The ar- "to fit" in "Aryan" read as "allied, friendly, to give, one's ethnic group."  Cognates of which were used for ar-istocrats from Ireland to India.  (As well as the ar- in art, rta, hero, aryaman, earl/jarl, etc....  Schlegel, A.D., linked Indo-Iranian arya with Celtic Eire and Deutsch Ehre "honor".)  Irminsul (Teutonic) and Airiiaman (Iranian) and Éremón (Irish).  —Cosmology :  Irmin-straße (Teutonic) "Irmin street" = Milky Way.  Aryamṇáḥ pánthāḥ (Old Indic) "Aryaman path" = Milky Way.  (academia.edu/35486756/Iarl_and_Iormun-_Arya-and_Aryaman-_A_Study_in_Indo-European_Comparative_Mythology)
      • dharma to hold or to support, and is related to Latin firmus (firm) and hence "law" ;  it is semantically similar to the Greek themis ("fixed law"). 
  • "Long-hair" Saošiiant redeemer saviors (Avestan Gathas) or Heilbringer/Hælend—healer/holier (from whole, holy/Hālig, das Heilige "the sacred", heil/hail/wassail, heal, health) (Teutonic) :  Rudra-Indra (Hittite, Rg-Veda), Mitra (Hittite, Avestan, Rg-Veda), Dionysus (Hellenic), Óð-inn/*Wōð-an-az ("frenzy lord") ᚨ (Teutonic) stem meaning "raging"—wot (god), word, whisper, water/voda, wet, wise/wit/video/wissen/Veda (Sanskrit)/veta (Swedish), and witch/wicca/wizard are all from this stem ;  related to vātēs (Latin) and fáith (Celtic) both meaning "seer, prophet".  As a part of the Frazerian 'dying god' myth, it is a symbolic victory of growth over stagnation or dormancy in the cycle of the year, and ultimately a victory of rebirth over death.  The hero as archetypal scapegoat or eniautos daimon  [sun king/year king].  Via Bahkunin's "carnival" topos of the mundus inversus.
    "When justice is crushed, when evil rules supreme, then I come. For the protection of the good, for the destruction of the evil-doers, for the sake of firmly establishing righteousness, I am born in age after age." (Bhagavad-Gita)
    • Thor slays oroborus Jörmungandrg "the world serpent" "the mighty stick" (Teutonic).  Indra, the "dragon-slayer", slays serpent Vritra (Vedic).   "The striker" Perun fought Veles under the world oak tree (Slavic).  Tarhunt vs. Illuyanka (Hittite).  Fereydun vs. Aži Dahāka (Avestan).  Zeus vs. Typhon (Hellenic).  "The traditional Old English dragon slaying formulas: wyrm acwealde 'killed the worm'."  Calvert Watkin's singular Indo-European formula, "Hero slays [gwhen] dragon [snake, worm]."  Hero "overcomes" death/"resistance", says Watkins of the Sanskrit word stems.  —The fire-breathing dragon/snake, a three-headed serpent named *Ngʷhi ("serpent" ;  and the Indo-European root for negation), is, perhaps, once slew or overcome, the world tree/axis mundi/the One/Apeiron/henosis (Hellenic)/grund of being/undifferentiated/"the allfather"/René Guénon calls this union “the Supreme Identity”/Zhuangzi's "obliterating [of pairs of opposites] unity with the Dao".  —Slays the dragon—slays the ego—slays the "thou shalt" (Law) says Nietzsche's Zarathustra—overcoming Eliot's "wasteland" (a word lifted from Celtic grail legend’s Parsifal "hero’s journey") of inauthentic ("authentic" is rootedness says Heiddegger) life.  (If you want to eat from the tree of life, you must die.)  "after three draughts of soma he is ready to kill Vrtra."  (Sigurd understood birds’ speech after eating Fafnir’s heart, and Odin transformed himself into a serpent in order to obtain the mead of poetry, in Norse carvings the snake merges into the tree, etc.)
      "[after soma] When, O Indra ["The conqueror of Dasas"—he is said to have protected the Aryan varna by killing them], you slew the firstborn of serpents, then did you out-trick [overcame by your māyā] the tricks [māyā] of the tricksters [māyā-possessors]. ...Since then you have found no enemy to conquer you. ... The vital energy of [dragon] Vrtra’s mother ebbed away, for Indra had hurled his deadly weapon against her. ... The waters who had the Dāsa [The dark non-Aryan enemy. They enslaved many of them. The Dasyus had to work for their victors and were made to do the most difficult and lowly work. There was a difference between the language, gods, religion and culture of the Aryans and the Dasyus. So, the Aryans made it a rule that no Aryan could marry a Dasyu.] for their husband, the dragon for their protector, were imprisoned like cows imprisoned by the Panis. When he killed Vrtra he split open the outlet of the waters that had been closed." —Rg-Veda
      "...she [Grendel's mother dragon] clutched the warrior in a terrible lock."..."[underwater] The hero then observed that he was inside some enemy hall, where no water could harm him, nor could the sudden tug of the flood reach him, because of this roofed chamber; he saw light of a fire, a glowing flame shining brightly." —Beowulf
      Thor
      Norway stone, Thor and serpent.
    • Thunder god :  Thor/Donnar ᚦ uses axe/hammer (Teutonic) | Perun (stem means striker) uses axe (Slavic) | Perkūn-as uses axe (Baltic) | Indra "the wielder of thunderbolts" uses axe/mace (Vedic).  —Cognates :  Fjörgynn/Thor (Norse), rain god Parjanya (Vedic), Perkūn-as (Baltic), and Perun/Perúnú (Slavic).
      • Goats draw the chariots of Thor (Teutonic), Perkūnas (Baltic), and Pan (Helenic)/Pushan (Vedic).
    • Wod, Wut, and Wot-an/Óð-inn means fury (madness/insanity/inspiration, ex-stassis).  —"...menos came from the heavens, heroes owe their great deeds to it" :  menos (Hellenic) | manas (Vedic) | mania (Latin), wut (Teutonic).  Virtus, Audacia, Wut, Woths, Ódhr, Furor, Dásacht, Thyás, and Ferg :  the Indo-European sacred fury. The substantial original equivalence of the concept of the Virtus (Vedic) and the Wut (Teutonic), remarked by Roman authors themselves (who deified Virtus as the opener of the gates of divine glory to their military commanders) to describe the magical and sacred charisma venerated in the field of martial arts among the Celtic and Teutonic tribesmen.  Comparing Latin, Hellenic, Teutonic, Celtic, and Vedic terms, the various Indo-European expression of the sacred fury as a driving, transfiguring and mystical force in which the warrior (e.g., the exstasis goose-stepping Berserkergang, gang "to step") took over human and extra-human traits, etymologically closely related to the invocation of divine light and the "storm" in the warrior sacrifice. ...Woden is etymologically cognate to Latin vates, “inspired poet” (wherefrom Mithraism pope Petra's Collis Vaticanus, “poets’ hill”, which became the Vatican).
      • All things come into being by conflict of opposites, and the sum of things (τὰ ὅλα ta hola, 'the whole') flows like a stream. (Diogenes Laërtius summing up Heraclitus's philosophy)
      • All Indric religious systems have as their ultimate purpose life-transcendence (moksha) because all assume that sentient existence is a false perception of reality (maya), the facade behind which lies The One (tat ekam), brahman, who, formless, and because formless eternal, is the sole reality.
  • Upaniṣads' identification of ātman (self) with brahman (Self, the One) by the saṃnyāsa (worldly renouncer) (Vedic), to breath (pneuma and psychē—to breath, thymos—to fume (Hellenic), ghost/Geist—to breath (Teutonic), spiritus—flame, anima (Latin), soul—"of sea" (Teutonic, Baltic), dúch—to breath (Slavic), Agni, fire (Vedic). ...Ātman is the Kantian "first principle" ;  and is identical with the transcendent self Brahman.  ...Aristotle ( B.C.) defined the soul, or Psūchê, as the "first actuality" ("Actus Primus") of a naturally organized body, and argued against its separate existence from the physical body.  ...Fukuyama (Hegel as interpreted by Kojève as interpreted by Fukuyama) argues that the desire of identity groups for recognition/dignity/respect (thymos—"the seat of judgments of worth", the “master concept”)—the obsessive particularism of ethnic identification—is the key threat to Liberalism.  The soul—thymos, the One, is (the urge to) identity.  ...I/iche/ego is the soul said Kant ;  later, (ground-of-) being, self, identity have been referents to soul.  ...Ancient Egypt (whose most ancient DNA was Anatolian, cemetery study) god Thoth created the world by the force of his word.  Along with this Thoth concept, most of the Torah/"Law" stories were "appropriated" from Egypt, Hellenes, Sumer, Parsi, and Canaan by the Judean elites while writing the Torah in Babylon (then, as it is written in the Torah, when they returned from Babylon, they mysteriously found the scroll hidden in the ruined wall the Old Temple).  (The Moses character and central story, and justification for retaking Canaan, was not written anywhere prior to the Babylonian Captivity.  Moses name and his Law were stolen from Egyptian and Babylonian stories.  And, Samson, ark/flood, garden/Eden/tree/snake, etc. were copied from other host races.  But not "Abraham, Jacob, Isaac, and other proto-historical Bedouins."  (De Benoist)  Judaism is classed by antrhopologists as a particularistic endogomous ancestor-worship (Latin cultus "worship") faith tradition.
    • Note, Soul is a Saxon Heathen word. The Christian words are the Hebrew Ru'ach and the Greek Pneumatos, meaning 'spirits', or more specifically breath. God breathed life into Adam in the bible. When someone dies, they have a last breath, where their spirit leaves the body. When a Christian sneezes, people said 'God bless you' due to the belief a christian just lost some of their pneumatos (spirit.) The word 'pneumonia' comes from the Greek word for spirit/breath. The word Soul is a word borrowed in the Bible from Germanic Heathenry. A Soul is not in Hebrew thought, this word is in Old English and Old Saxon, and comes into modern English from Old English."  ...Ferah "one's life-spirit ;  tree".  Teutonic :  "Ferah [ātman, an individual instantiation of brahman] is a part of a person you cannot see, it makes the person alive, and dies when the person dies."  "Gest is a part of a person one cannot see. It doesn't die when the Ferah and person dies. It can leave the body."  "Siola [brahman, the generalized abstract class of ātman] is a part of a person one cannot see. It never dies.  (Sass)
  • Mythos (Hellenic), religio (Latin), folklore / heidinn sidr "heathen rite" (Teutonic), Rik/ṛtá (Vedic).  Before Christians dominated Rome, Christians were called "athiests" in Rome, for neglegence of their Roman "ancestor cultus" worship rites of their "patrimony" (country) of "the pater patriot [Jupiter]".
    • Ásatrú (wikipedia.org/wiki/Aesir-Asura_correspondence) is a form of ancestor-worship/"ancestor cult" (as are all Indo-European religions)—your (neurological) soul (bying) comes from your ancestors (Väter), your lineage—it is inherited.  —So ancestors can only be worshiped be their descendants.  (As of , Ásatrú is a religion officially recognized by the governments of Iceland, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden.  (While Romuva is recognized by Lithuania—rom (Baltic) equals ram (Vedic), and Dievturība is recognized in Latvia ;  and numerous pagan Slavic sects in Slavic speaking countries.)  Latvian Song Festival :  https://youtu.be/Igx4C6WbCrM
      • (Ása-trú refers to) Æsir (Teutonic) ᚫ is the plural of áss, óss "god", or anses "half-gods."  Word-stem from Proto-Indo-European *h₂énsus "life force (cf. Avestan aŋhū "lord, lifetime", ahura "godhood", Vedic ásu "life force".  It is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- "to engender" (Hittite hass- "to procreate, give birth", Tocharian B ās- "to produce").
  • Indo-Aryans [the earliest Hindus], like the Greeks and Romans [and Balts and Iranians], maintained a sacred fire [Latin "altar" means burn-platform. In pagan times a burnt offering to one's ancestors—ancesor worship—was called a holocaust by the Greeks.] in the household that represented the family and was never supposed to be extinguished unless the family [male] line itself was . In all of these cultures, the fire was worshiped as a deity that represented the health and well-being of the family—not just the living family, but also the family's dead ancestors stretching back over many generations. Religion and kinship are closely connected in tribal societies. Ancestor worship is particularistic... You have duties only to your ancestors... 'The funeral obsequies could be religiously performed only by the nearest [male] relative... They believed that the dead ancestor accepted no offerings save from his own family; he desired no worship save from his own descendants.' Moreover, each individual has a strong interest in having male descendants, since it is only they who will be able to look after one's soul after one's death. As a result, there is a strong imperative to marry and have male children; celibacy in early Greece and Rome was in most circumstances illegal. The result of these beliefs is that an individual is tied both to dead ancestors and to unborn descendants, in addition to his or her living children. As Hugh Baker puts it with regard to Chinese kinship, there is a rope representing the continuum of descent that 'stretches from Infinity to Infinity passing over a razor which is the Present. If the rope is cut, both ends fall away from the middle and the rope is no more. If the man alive now dies without heir, the whole continuum of ancestors and unborn descendants dies with him... His existence as an individual is necessary but insignificant beside his existence as the representative of the whole.' ...Belief in the reality of dead ancestors binds individuals together on a far larger scale than is possible in a family... The 'community' is not only the present members of the lineage, clan, or tribe; it is the whole rope of descent from one's ancestors to one's unborn descendants. (Fukuyama) ᛟ

    • A specific character of the most ancient cults of the most ancient Aryan societies was its anti-universalism. Ancient man did not turn to a God in general, a God of all men and all races, but the God of a lineage, in fact, of his gente and his family. And vice versa: only the members of the group that corresponded to them, could legitimately invoke the divinity of the domestic fire and to think that their rites were efficacious.  (Evola)  Lithuania kept sacred fires burning until A.D..
    • God did not create the world, he unfolds in him and through him. It is not 'present everywhere' in the world, as simple pantheism maintains; rather it constitutes the dimension of the world which, globally as well as locally, gives it meaning according to what we do there.  The affirmation of the substance of God being identical to that of the being of man, " ... ... "In other words, God is born in the soul of man; it is generated in and by the human soul. God comes to man to be born, to 'become' within his soul." ... ..."What makes the oracle of Delphi silent, remarks Jean-Luc Marion, is not some deception finally discovered (Fontenelle), but the disappearance of the Greeks  (de Benoist)
    • Historically the definition of justice is associated with ancestral authority and described in the language of debt and credit. "Justice is what is owed to one’s ancestors. Ancestral knowledge provides the first codification of duties or obligations. It is the first sense of law. It describes a clear division between the ruler (to whom one’s obligations are due) and the ruled." Hence sacrifice to the AllFather — "ancestor worship", which traditionally can only be offered by His descendants.
    • ...the Bhagavad-Gîtâ, the most authoritative source in everyday Hinduism... Moreover, the Gîtâ itself is explicit enough about the understanding of caste [varna] identity as hereditary and implying endogamy. When its hero Arjuna [meaning 'white'] shies away from battle and displays a failing in the martial quality (guna) befitting a warrior, his adviser Krshna [his soul] does not tell him that by guna he clearly isn’t a Kshatriya and hence free from military duty, but instead tells him to overcome his doubts and do his Kshatriya duty, for regardless of his personal traits he just happens (viz. by birth) to be a member of the Kshatriya caste [varna].  [¶]  When the two argue opposing positions regarding the justice of waging the fraternal war, they do so with reference to the same concern, viz. the need to avoid varna-sankara, roughly ‘mixing of castes’. Both say that the other’s proposed line of action, viz. fighting c.q. avoiding the war, would lead to the ‘immorality of women’ and thence to breaches of caste endogamy.  When in a society two opposing arguments are based on the same value, you know that that value is deeply entrenched in that society,—i.c. caste [varna] as an hereditary communal identity guarded by endogamy.
      "Out of the corruption of women proceeds the confusion of castes (i.e., of races, for the castes [varna] originally corresponded to racial differences); out of the confusion of castes proceeds the loss of memory (i.e., one forgets who were one's ancestors), out of the loss of memory proceeds the loss of understanding, and out of this all evil!" (Savitri Devi quoting Bhagavad-Gita)
      • The origin of Veda can be traced back as far as B.C., when a large group of nomads called Ârya (the descendants of "father Manu" would say the Ârya, not "father Abraham"), coming from Iran (originally from Pontic-Steppe) crossed the Hindu Kush Mountains, invading into the Indian subcontinent.
  • Horse riding "divine twins" :  originally Manu and Yemo.  Hengist and Horsa (Teutonic) common on rooftops of England and Germany, the horses of Skinfaxi Dagr (day) and Hrímfaxi Nótt (night) (Norse), Remus and Romulus (Latin), the "sons of Zeus" Castor and Pollux (Hellenic), Aśvins meaninig horse the "sons of Dyaús" sunrise and sunset via chariot (Vedic), Ašvieniai meaning horse the "sons of Dievas" day white-horse and night black-horse pull carriage of Saulė (Sun) through sky (Baltic) ;  Ašvieniai depicted as žirgeliai little-horses are common on Lithuanian rooftops.  ...The "solar chariot" is in all the IE liguistic branches. ⊕ ᛖ

    • Mannus ᛗ (Teutonic—Tacitus) cognates to Manu (Vedic), the first man, "the son of Brahma (god/the One)".  Tacitus wrote that Mannus was the progenitor of the Teutonic tribes—just as the Sanskrit says of "father Manu."  And Manu's twin/hermaphrodite :  Yemo, Yama (Vedic), Yima (Avestan), Ymir (Norse), Remus (Roman) (< earlier *Yemos (Old Latin)).
    • Horse-sacrifice/asvamedha :  (Teutonic) (Celtic) (Latin) (Scythian) (Hellenic) (Armenian) (Avestan) (Vedic)  ...the ritual is considered to be symbolic of conquest of ego/self-interest/desire for the world... ...[and] becoming the eater of all the names and forms, as spelled out clearly in Upaniṣad.  To get connected to the "inner Sun" (Prana), whose rotating pillarous symbol is the swastika, tree, snake.
    • Indo-European linguistic connections between Norse Sól, Vedic Surya, Common Brittonic Sulis, Lithuanian Saulė, Latin Sol, and Slavic Tsar Solnitse.
      • Sun goddess (Celtic, Hellenic, Latin, Teutonic, Avestan, Vedic, Hittite).  And moon god husband (Slavic, Teutonic, Baltic).
  • "Voice/invoked/call upon" (whilst libation to the One in the forefathers/ancestors/heros/gods—like the hailing Catholic priest's wine cup) is the root for Teutonic word god/bog and Goth.  And libation (to the forefather hero's brahman-filled soul) is still done by the Hindus onto Agni fire and the Heathens with blót (sacrifice)—in rites or Rtá to yoga/yoke up with the One (the soul/Self/bying/brahman) that was within the gods/heros/father-ancestors ("union with the immortals").
    Blót
    The viking mead blót (sacrifice) to die Väter (the ancestors) by the Roman flamen (priest) with the Vedic Agni fire (candles).
    • Fire rituals to ancestors and burial mounds/"Kurgans" (nearly all IE branches).  Widow immolation (Teutonic—Tacitus, Vedic).  Daytime sex is bad (Hellenic Homer) (Vedic Mahabharata).
    • Raj-Brahmin / Rex-Flamen :  a priest in ancient Rome—the name derives from a root meaning “he who burns offerings.”  (Georges Dumézil)
  • Prom-theús originally meant ‘the one who steals’; it has an exact cognate, including the prefix, in the Vedic verb pra math-, which means ‘to steal’ and is used in the Vedic myth of the theft of fire.
  • Phrase "everlasting glory" or "undying fame" have related root words in Homeric Greek and Vedic Sanskrit, and Iranian.  Similar notions in Celtic, Teutonic, Slavic—sláva, and Baltic.
  • In a recurrent motif, the Otherworld contains a gate, guarded by a hound.  The Greek Cerberus and the Hindu Śárvara derive from the common root *Ḱérberos ("spotted").  In the Norse, Garmr, a blood-stained guardian of Hel's gate.  And Celtic hellhounds. The mytheme possibly stems from an older Ancient North Eurasian belief, as evidenced by similar motifs in Native American and Siberian mythology, in which case this hound might be the oldest mytheme recoverable through comparative mythology.
  • Three (northern) seasons—3 holi-day feast-days : 
    1. Easter (when the sun that died at Yuletide is reborn ;  with the "cosmic egg" in all of Europe and the "brahma-egg" in the Vedas)—an Ôstara/Easter fertility goddess :  In three traditions (Vedic, Hellenic, Baltic), the Dawn is the "daughter of heaven (Dyḗus)".  —Dawn goddess :  Uṣás (Rg-Veda Sanskrit), Ušå (Avesta), Eos (Hellenic), Aurora (Roman), Ēostre (Anglo-Saxon), Ôstarmânôth (High Deutsch), Aušra (Lithuanian) was still acknowledged in the sixteenth century.
    2. Midsummer solstice.
    3. Maruts (Vedic)/Wild Hunt/Einherjar, Yuletide ⊕ (Teutonic).
  • ∴ Therefore, there was a single Proto-Indo-European religion.
    ∵ Because, one clade (Y haplogroup) conquered and then mixed with the (female) conquered.  —In Europe, Pontic-Steppe R1a/b men (descendants of "Eastern European Hunter-Gatherers"), Aryans ("Yamnaya DNA"), conquered and assimilated with Europe's original I1/I2 clade men (descendants of "Western European Hunter-Gatherers") and the Anatolian "Farmers".  (Like how the Congoid-Negroid Bantu conquered Sub-Saharan Africa, B.C.)  (Note :  Geneticist David Reich said that the KITLG gene for blonde hair entered continental Europe in a massive population migration from the Eurasian [Pontic] steppe, by a people who had Ancient North Eurasian [Siberia] ancestry.  Not the swart, blue-eyed, dark-haired Western European Hunter-Gatherers.  ...Patanjali the Indian "father of yoga" wrote blonde hair was an essential attribute of a brahmin.)
    • [I] believe that the Christianization of Europe, the integration of Christianity in the European mental system was the most disastrous event in history that has happened up to this point — a catastrophe in the true meaning of the term.  ...  ...  In his Introduction to Metaphysics, Heidegger examines precisely the question of the 'past'. A people, he says, can only triumph over the 'darkening of the world' and decadence on condition of permanently wanting a destiny. However, it 'will only make a destiny if first it creates in itself a resonance, a possibility of resonance for this destiny, and if it understands its tradition in a creative way. All this implies that this people, as a proventual people, ex-poses itself in the original domain where being reigns, and thereby ex-posits there the provenance of the West, from the center of its pro-coming future'. It is necessary, in other words, 'to re-seek the beginning of our spiritual being as proventual, to transform it into another beginning'. And Heidegger adds: 'For a beginning to repeat itself, it is not a question of looking back to it as to something past, which now is known and which only has to be imitate, but it is necessary that the beginning be started again more originally, and that with all that a real beginning comprises of disconcerting, obscure and uncertain'. Indeed, 'the beginning is here. He is not behind us like he was a long time ago, but he is standing in front of us. The beginning broke into our future. He drives away his greatness that we must reach'.  ....  ...Paganism today is not about erecting altars to Apollo or resuscitating the cult of Odhinn. On the other hand, it implies looking for, behind religion, the 'mental tools' of which it is the product, to which interior universe it returns, what form of apprehension of the world it translates. In short, it implies considering the gods as 'centers of values' (H.R. Niebuhr), and the beliefs of which they are the object as systems: gods and beliefs pass, but values remain.   ...  ...the gods of paganism, is tolerant, because he is made up of all kinds of diversity. It even represents, one might say, the unique diversity of a being who does not have to exclude any otherness, any difference, because it encompasses and reconciles them all ["'the All Other' is One" is paganism is "the Perennial Philosophy"—transcendant overcoming of the Other by oneness of bying]. Fundamentally, the God of paganism is non-Other. On the contrary, the God of Judeo-Christian monotheism is alterity par excellence, he is the Any Other - and it is in this status of radical otherness that he claims to give himself that his danger lies.  (Alain de Benoist, "The Religion of Europe")
