Looks comfy. I would like to fish that lake behind it.
It is on a river: Daugava
and there are plenty of fish
never heard of it. Where is it exactly?
they have web site with more info
google: Latvijas Dievturu Sadraudzes
you will find more about it there
>fondued
my bad
>dyslexic
forgot to check
>fondued by government
now I will attract grammar nazi. grate!
Any English info on this?
>fondued by government
It got covered in melted cheese? Wtf is going on in Latvia?
>latvia
>nordic
jesus fuck, how can you hate yourself so much? Latvians are Baltic, as are Lithuanians
comfy
Seems islamophobic, you should've built a mosque instead.
>when your pagan religion is based on a book written by a Christian hundreds of years after your religion went extinct.
Off topic: my grandparents are Latvian, and I can potentially get a Latvian passport. How stupid would I be for moving from here to there?
Looks pretty comfy, it'd be neat to visit. How historically accurate is its construction?
I wonder how many child sacrifice orgies must go on in there.
Cool
read some history, look up some genetic information. they are both. extensively settled by vikings and then extensively slav'd by khanates.
contemporary roman accounts and some archaeology as well, though I agree the religion is dead and is a complete LARP at this point.
if you are rich you could live like a kang, but to wagecuck there instead of australia i dont think so
very nice country to visit though
Does this temple have a website or something? I want to see what they believe.
In short. Take your average salary and divide it by three. Than divide that by 2. You get to keep a half.
> pegan temple
> built on an island
> an island, which you need a boat to get to
"No we don't want you to take this seriously, even if it's just a LARP of what local pegan culture used to be like. Also be sure to pay the ferryman for the adventure of being on water when we could've built this on land and not charged a defacto admission price."
It's a tourist attraction that literally capitalizes on a LARP of history, nothing more.
I am sorry but you're literally talking out of your ass. While it is true vikings were passing through they never settled here.
looks really nice
this
I wonder what would Varg's opinion be about this.
Its either.
>"Hurr it's looks like an organized religion that resembles judeo-chriatian systems. The gods are inside you and shiet!"
Or
>"Ha civilization failing and the old gods are returning."
Worship your God(s) make a sacrice in it.
pls give gf

I think this is it.
>Expecting culturally important buildings like museums to be completely subsidized by the government
Nah, leaf. This shit only happens in Canada to promote absolute bat-shit degeneracy.
Pagans should worry about their salvation
White Christians should worry about the very real possibility of their race being wiped off the face of the Earth due to secularized morality
genetically and culture grope yea they are baltic but country is counted as nordic.
that is my justification of that
multiple permanent settlements, archeological fact, in your genetic studies, google it, too lazy to educate you on your own heritage.
Some Latvian Folk music:

From the translated wikipedia it seems to be focused on neo-paganism and the magic/energy-based Gods of the earth. But perhaps someone could give us a better explanation.
yes some of it. But there have been accounts of pagan societies living in isolation until 18th century in Lithuania. and most traditions of are Pagan organise at this part of Europe. With you look Christianity here it is more pagan then Christian.
>when your Christian writings are all stolen from Greek and Roman texts
>literal phallus
>LE BASED PAGANISM GUYS!
this one might be.
but honestly I have been more pagan weddings then Christian ones. and besides it is not centralised religion. They did not have priests or temples back then except some more populated locations. those religions are about traditional rituals not preying
Ya know that centerpiece could be turned into a swastika pretty easily overnight with a few adventurous lads.
Who the fuck fondues a building?
So the fondue isn't real?
FFS you atheists are always larping.
yea that is pretty close to that only thing what I can add is that there belief of magic is throw self discipline and rituals not shortcuts or cursing.
I am researching that be cos there are some interesting stuff in mythology
pasakas.lfk.lv
witch one there are Mother of forest, Mother of wind. and Mother sun just for example
>fondued
nigga now im grubbin for some cheese. Fuck you.
That's a nice looking lodge.
I think one of the reasons there are so many problems is people aren't happy because they don't live the way they should.
Consumerism is pandering to desire, it inhibits consciously seeking out long term happiness. We need green spaces, fauna and flora to be happy and healthy long term. We could be happier with less if we set up society properly.

>liking cheese

You are not Nordic, don't flatter yourself
Other than that, congratulations!

Deuteronomy 28, 36-37
Exile.
The Lord will bring you, and your king whom you have set over you, to a nation which you and your ancestors have not known, and there you will serve other gods, of wood and stone, and you will be a horror, a byword, a taunt among all the peoples to which the Lord will drive you.
You know you tack a culture for example how believe suffering is reason for living
Yes, I'm sure there are lots of interesting stories if you know the language. Unfortunately, machine translation destroys a lot of mythology, especially with lesser known and distant languages. I know a little Russian, but I doubt that would help at all.
If you're really in tune with the gods and nature you'll just swim to it, faggot leaf
Man I hate that it is in nordic Europe map. It is humiliating that we looked up at Sweden back at 2001
You know, only a few days in the woods and you start to change your sleep patterns to coincide with the moon. And wood heat, nice wood floors are so much nicer, and working with wood is a calming form of work compared to modern labour.
No doubt these longhouses with lots of headroom are much nicer to live in as well.
>Man I hate that it is in nordic Europe map
Then you're gonna love this!

A simple google search shows that your position is fringe and not part of a greater consensus.
We’re on to you Latvia
Probably is more like a cultural center for visiting tourist. It's pretty though.
there are Latvian, Lithuanian and German versions only sadly at that web site.
Looks comfy. I should visit sometimes.
my bad
>Northern Europe
but get your point. Don't understand Estonians about all of this

Can I LARP as romuva holy crusader now?
>and German
That's cool. Gonna read a bit.
>tips fedora
hei we never really wanted all that Christianity historically.
we wear the last ones in Europe modern Baltic countries. And I think we will be the 1st ones to just going back to olde beliefs
>The Bible
It might be Livonian dialect.
>tips yamaka
I am christianised Lutheran it might not be the same Christianity but at most we can agree. But I most say Christianity has lost its authority for a long time. and the migration and rise of muslims in Europe show that. But with I have to chose my killer I wold go to Baltic Paganism as its values are closer to my then filthy muslims.
I only fallow the morality of Christianity. But I most agree on that image
Are you ballanon?
You are Slavic and Uralic sub-humans.
one more thing there are writings on artefacts what have survived up to this day and more stuff has been dogged up awry year . And we can still understand those with we can read the runs. as Baltic Languages has changed the least sense original indu-europian times
>no?
>I am dyslexic
No Baltic you dip shit
good thing we burned city what was before Stokhold there at 13th century
Is this traditional Latvian architecture? It reminds me of Japan.
yea mostly it is but in time it will turn grey
Yes. Latvia is a meme country invented by the Germans to rob Russia of access to the Baltic Sea. By rights the "Latvians" should have been deported to Siberia the minute the war ended.
we just speak different languages. were duchess or different names under. and under Poland Livonia and Sweden and last one Russia. yea just other russins right? But honestly with Russia wold have not pushed Russification we wold be under russia Red revolution wold have been failed and there wold be a tsar at russia
>some juicy ignored history at Latvia

Blaspheming Satan worshippers that should be round up and executed. There should be a zero tolerance policy on Heresy. G-d wills it!

I wold say similar level of difficulty as learning German
Deuteronomy 12:3
And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place.
