Great description of Valhalla, being a Scandinavian myself it's always interesting to hear about the Norse mythology from another perspective. Btw your hair looks fantastic ;)

I love your videos on Norse paganism. I even really love the tangents you spiral into !! Please make video about the ages of giants, men and so on.. the Hindu idea you touched on please

Fascinating story. I agree with that there's a deeper meaning behind all these things. We just don't know the whole story. Many think vikings were just a bunch of tough guys, only drinking mead and fighting others. But there's clearly a spiritual side to it. Runic magic and witchcraft are typical examples. Presumably some of the stone labyrinths found in old viking sites might be physical representations of exploring the brain/mind. I have heard about the possibility that old Norse culture had their beliefs inspired from other cultures. And since they were experienced seafarers that crossed great distances, it's likely they encountered hinduism at some point in their travels. That idea about Kali Yuga is pretty original. I never thought of that, but it makes sense if these cultures were connected in the distant past. Maybe all these old pagan religions once existed in their respective areas, but traded philosophical ideas when they encountered each other. It could explain a few things. The older generation of gods known as Vanir, could possibly be remnants from an even older religion which worshipped them in some unknown way. If only there was more written about these old cultures so we could understand them better.

Those who have left rude comments here: This is ELLE's video, and these are HER thoughts on Valhalla. You don't have to agree, you don't have to like it - but please respect the fact that this is her interpretation of what Valhalla is. You are welcome to your own. Also, she hasn't made videos in ages and many people are very worried and concerned for her well-being. So have some respect, please. Go make your own video on Valhalla if you're so triggered.

great video! I've been thinking about Valhalla a lot, my mom was half from Finland. It reminds me of her. My favorite character is Loki.

It is the hall of the CHOSEN dead, we all face personal battles but if you die from a battle of depression (commit suicide) what has that person done to prove they can fight at Ragnarok, Valhalla is in essence an army barrack for soldiers to prepare for the battle of Ragnarok, that person will likely end up in Hel and that's not a bad thing! The hall of ancestors is a fitting place for most but valhalla is not.

Very interesting the part about what guards the gates to eternal life as you described, which was to overcome fear itself, to realize time is an illusion and that time itself is not linesr, and finally overcoming the world which is an metaphor for the shadow of man ( Carl Jung)

I did a paper on this in college, in mythology class. I had taken the class to get an easy extra 2 credit hours, but all the things we studied amazed me. I was very into Norse mythology, and also when we studied psychic vampirism. Great video!!!! I love how you described this topic. I definitely would have paid better attention in that class if you had been my professor 😎

Valhöll is in Glaðsheimr in Ásgarðr its Óðinns hall where he collects the best Einherjar an they fight eachother all day an kill eachother then are reborn to feast drink an tell stories of their deeds all in preparation for Ragnarök

Interesting To Note!Thxs.

People talking about “Valhalla is about being a warrior or soldier” times change, that’s not viable in this day and age, people can’t die in battle as readily nowadays, not everyone is eligible to join the military, and not everyone in the military dies in battle, and there are very few other ways to die in a form of battle with honor, these days dying a warriors death is more of a mental and spiritual thing, I personally believe that it means dying as a warrior in less physical ways, suicidal thoughts, abusive homes and lives, it takes a real warrior to survive these battles, it’s about spirit more than actual battle

@andyroth1456

No, doesn't work like that. Valhalla is just for warriors, no and or but about it. The rules don't change, Odin made how he wants it, not how we want it. If you truly believe in Norse heathenism then you will not question it. And no, mental and spiritual battles are not the same as a physical battle. Most of you guys don't understand what Valhalla is really used for, it's a training ground for Odin's army. An army, as in combat. He wants warriors who can fight in combat.

I've only been heathen for about a year now, I have much more to learn obviously. I do think that a lot of people who are heathen focus to much on getting to Valhalla. Ultimately it's the gods will where we go in the afterlife, we have no say in it.

How do you know that the Gods haven't changed? It's not about being a warrior physically it's about being a warrior in the soul. And in history it just translated as being a physical warrior but as times changed people changed and don't think that the Gods don't change. They do too. Even if the basic construct is the same. The Gods allow people to translate what a warrior is in thier own way. And to me with the way the planet currently is people are having more spiritual battles that show in a physical way. And during the most hardest times for people it takes a warriors soul to get through it which I believe still counts. Would you deny someone who died fighting for their life in An abusive relationship the chance at Valhalla? What about someone fighting cancer or any kind of sickness that can kill when they have done everything they could do to fight it. Or people that go through very hard times and choose not to give up. It's that not the soul of a warrior? Something to think about. And it's ok if you don't agree.
