My familial lineage comes from Niall, but more closely in our line, is Fergus mor MacEarca, and am amazed and humbled, by the times spoken of here. I appreciate so much, for the telling! For myself, I am an older woman with a lovely family. A handweaver by trade, a Norman husband named Pomeroy, and we love to live in places that are miles out of the way. While our son is working his way towards his Neuroscience degree. Many Blessings to you and yours, for what you have shared here...

My last name is Iness, it's Irish and has been mutated repeatedly through the years. My family history is lost, as is the true history of many many families, especially here in America. However, I know when I look at photos or films of the land in Ireland, I feel a pull, which I think of as an ancestral knowing or recognition of my past. Also my genetic testing from 3 different sources have all come back 75% or higher Irish/Scottish/Welsh. AND I am experiencing spiritual awakening, as I'm sure many others are at this time, so your video has been doubly enjoyable and enlightening. Thank you, friend 🤓👍

How brilliant . Nobel have I created Thee, wherefore dost thou abase thyself, Persian but so much like your interpretation. My Great grandmother arrived in the northeast as an indentured servant. we have a small contract she had to fulfill, to pay for her passage. She was five years old. She embodied nobility.

Amazing clarity for my present spiritual dilemma. Thank you so much for affirming my uncommon values.

What a great story! I'm relistening to it now. I'm just starting my reading on druidry. My whole family is Irish, but we were not taught her history or culture (Americanized, we were, lol). Love this!

Thank you for offering this valuable sovereign understanding of the story in your commentary. I don't know that there is a better story for us to learn this kind of lesson from. We are kings of compassion and warriors of hope but also judgers of evil and defenders of the weak. Noble heart. Noble soul.

I think Nial lived in the fourth and fifth centuries but you are correct, the Irish spoken then would have been primitive or old Irish so nobody knows what it sounded like. Even today we have three different dialects of Irish spoken around the country and not to mention a host of accent variation between counties.

and I pray for more final explanations over the other episodes and pray too for subtitles of all of them, please.

I happened upon this one evening . This was wonderful

How interesting. I had never ran into this site or the one I was just viewing. I started listening to the other one and was surprised that they mention "Saint" Patrick. I mentioned my blood line and the fact that my ancestor Fiachu was the one who captured the guy, when he was still a teen. Immediately after, I was recommended this site by KZread and when I click it mentions it's about Niall, Fiachu's father. I been researching my bloodline for decades, so I would have thought I would run into this site before, but as I mentioned on the other site, I believe the time has come for it all to come out. Haven't even started watching this video, but it should give me even more information. I doubt that anyone would even guess where I'm from or how many people there have Irish ancestors. If you ask anyone one to guess, they would probably guess zero. But, I believe they ended up there in the 1500's because of what is happening now and who else are among our ancestors. I'm taking notes.

Give Thanks.

Ireland doesn't have space for all the descendents of the diasporas, most of us Irish Americans dont even know that land, we know this land here in America. Its not like L21 didnt come from elsewhere before. I just look at it like most of us Americans are a weird form of orphan, even most latin Americans have never been to Spain, most African Americans have never been to Africa, etc. Its quite a peculiar situation.

I've been told over and over again by Irish citizens that his name is pronounced like Niel or Neel and not like Nile. From what I've been told, Niel is the Gaelic (and correct) pronunciation, while Nile is the anglicisation pronunciation. In other words, Nile is the Americanized pronunciation.

Here is my simple understanding of truth and reality: There is a Great Spirit Who created heaven and earth, and gives life to every living Creature. By trusting, honoring, and following that Spirit with cheerful and humble gratitude, the quality of life is optimized for myself and those with whom I associate. This is how the art of living is mastered. Connect enough dots, and a clear big picture emerges...fully integrated...it all adds up and makes perfect sense, but took me over half a century of seeking, praying, and considering what's revealed along the way.

Every High King was succeeded by their First Born for 2,500 years!! This was the Beginning of the end of Ireland unfortunately....As this split up Ireland as the Ui'neil stole the High Kingship and eventually killed Brion and his Sons split into the UI'Bruins and splitting up Ireland and created more infighting.....

Nature of the business world. Capitalism corrupts. Psychotic behaviours are actively encouraged.

People should accept the reality that irish History and language is a complex mixture of different peoples. There were stages of artificial changes in the irish language from what appears to be welsh and scottish gaelic and french(from latin) and norse. So with this reality in mind present day people should not try to "reinvent the wheel" so to speak. By using "irish" language in place names and names of organisations really doesn't make sense because the language is lost in it's original form: old irish gaelige. It's sad but reality and the people living on the island of Ireland should accept the fact that they are in some ways british, it was said to me in a phrase: "west brits."
