My dear friends, I had planned to be here for you in these last days of the year, but sadly on the 21st of December (2022) I had the first symptoms of Covid, and there it is, after escaping it for this long the little bugger finally caught up with me. I'm currenly figthing high fevers and I've been hospitalized. Thank you so much for your support, kindness and friendship. Hopefully we shall be together in here for next year. Take care of yourselves. I wish you all the best and may next year bring you new possibilities and wonderful surprises. Stay safe and sound. Farewell!
Regarding this posting on Animism, I believe wholeheartedly in what you presented. Animism has been my practice for many years. There is no foolishness in it and it is most uplifting. My life is balanced because of it.
Oh that's terrible... I use optimal nutrition ($50 a month & I only eat a meal in the evening) with peanut butter & milk. veggie vitamins too & the whole family (6 of them) got it (they don't do the natural health thing).... I seriously think it is truly just hit or miss based on what is built up in our immune systems regularly (wife had it 3 times)... I'm no doctor & prefer natural teas & tone healing for minor pains due to weather (in place of over the counter meds) As always consult your own doc & treat yourself however it best works for you.... Sending you good vibrations friends ✌️❤️🖖✊️. Oh, very well put video 👏, ty... You got this 👊
As someone who also grew up in a (somewhat) violent background, and as a Christian that later renounced it and eventually found Zen Buddhism and Hinduism and Taoism through Alan Watts, after watching this video I find that Animism is probably the closest label I could apply to my personal worldview, along with Taoism, the idea that everything is a Great Organism of sorts. I've been writing poetry and aphorisms about Life for several years now. To me it only makes sense that everything is alive and connected to a universal power. It's not like humans are so particularly special that they are created apart from everything else, even though the strong illusion that we are gives us that impression. I don't often give likes but I like your videos, pleasant to watch.
Opened this without my glasses on this morning and read it as “Socializing with the otters,” and i have to say it feels like you missed out on a golden opportunity with this one. Happy new year!
Yes !!! If we all helped eachother and lived like brothers and sisters , and worked together , as we must , then we’d be in the right track and be less of the target we are to whatever’s hurting or harming us . We are all one organism . If we hurt another , we’re really hurting ourselvs .
Holy crap that is not true I'm so sick and tired of people saying that that takes away all of your spiritual sovereignty all of your individualism and it's fundamentally untrue you are your own thing take responsibility for your actions and quit trying to be a freaking hive mind
I've viewed a number of your videos in the past, but this one really spoke to me in important ways. I am a Pagan minister and present animism to my congregation, hopefully in ways that communicate the points you're making here. I like the emphasis on socialization and sociability, I think you're on the right track
Still fighting covid :l but today I feel better. I've recorded this video long before any symptoms. It's a good thing I keep scheduled videos. Have a wonderful day and I wish you a wonderful new year! Cheers!
Sharing my home with orphaned animals taught me so much during the years. Above all respect, unconditional love and patience. Thank you for the video Arith, much appreciated, we all need to be reminded that we can be wrong sometimes.
You have created such a beacon of knowledge & community here. My ability to acticulate what an animistic worldview is and how it is applied in practice has increased many fold. So I give thanks, you treasure of a human person🖤
Great description of animism, describing it in a social context, and the relationship between racism and the enlightenment which developed alongside colonialism, slavery, and capitalism. My personal experience, as an atheist, started with building a social and spiritual connection with elements within my environment through gardening and permaculture. As I began to break down the barriers from environmental alienation and separation, it began to give me a great sense of spiritual belonging and understanding in how I personally affect the environment I live in.
Thank you for keeping this subject alive and thriving on your channel. Animism is how we humans keep our dignity, integrity, wisdom and compassion in order to maintain balance in nature and communication with it.
Thank you for this video, and Happy Yule (upcoming January 6th in my neck of the woods in America, an unfortunate date). It's refreshing and brings me hope to see your content when there's so much hateful and pro-fascism content out there related to any type of European pagan practices. I find it funny that all of the twisted dark versions of paganism aren't very animistic; it's harder to promote hate when your worldview is based on interconnectedness and empathy I suppose. Keep up the great work! 👍
Good morning! Thank you for such a great vision, a motto for reflection, many of us go through life without realizing what it really means, and it is without any useful action, or healthy, what a waste... Thank you Mr. Arith you are a human being full of good energies and that makes us feel stronger and more with a purpose. May next year bring us new opportunities to be better and happier!
Arith, I’m sorry to hear you have Covid. If you’re in hospital, your in the right place. Get well as soon as your body lets you. Do what the medical people tell you. I used to work in a hospital and I know that the staff are working to get you on your feet again. Rest - that’s the best thing about being in hospital. Try and have a happy new year. I love hearing you talk about Animism. That you for all your content. Blessings.
I'm listening to at least one of your videos every day as I'm painting a series of women combined with animals . Your words often speak to exactly where I am inside myself . This video especially spoke to me . I grew up in utter chaos and violence . I have been in the process of finding peace and connection . My first deeply healing relationships have been with the natural world and invisible others . Thank you . Your work is really affirming of my experience.
Thank you for this message Arith, my hope is that we can all be kind to those around us, flora, fauna and spirit. If we make space for that this year, then it will be a wonderful one ♡
Arith! I am so sorry to hear you got Covid. I work in the medical field in the US and avoided it for 2.5 yrs before it got me. Rest, get plenty of fluids, sleep with your chest elevated if possible, it helps with getting more air into the lungs. As always, another great video! You are such a bright soul in this world and I thank you brother. I learn more about my ancestors lives and beliefs because of you. Whenever I think I’m feeling a little lost in my spiritual path, along comes an Arith video to remind me I’m headed in the right direction. You are appreciated more than you can ever know. Get well and take of your self first. Your subscribers are patient people and prefer you to get healthy, rather than rush to another video. Brightest Blessings my brother!
I often hear the notion that animism is a rather primitive, childish or irrational worldview. You are absolutely right to say that the opposite is true. We really need this way of relating to the world and to people in a open receptive manner with respect to the sacredness any creature is genuinely inherent of. It is true that the modern culture is way to proud of it‘s dubious achievements in technology or science. Unfortunately many people are not able to set aside their biases against worldviews that come from spiritual knowledge and wisdom. I also was in that position about 20 years ago, so I know this way of thinking very well. But I always felt that we need to look for a different way of life. I am certain we are heading into that direction and you are straight to the point about the need to listen and talk to one another in making progress finding proper ways of living for ourselves and the world we live in and with.
Thank you friend. Hope you have a wonder day and happy new year. Btw, I'm the one who makes the subtitles :b I'm sure there are a couple of errors but in general people understand. Cheers!
Thank you so much for such a fabulous talk, Arith. Animism has completely changed my life and I'm always very happy to learn more. You always give me even more to think about; it's such a joy. Sending you my warmest wishes for a full recovery; keep warm, get plenty of rest and see you when you're able to chat to us again. :)
Animism is much more than a tool to expand our perception of this world! At least to me , it's the basic reality of everything existing! The uni/multiverse (not just this tiny planet) is alive!
Good to remember to include plants in with the Others too I think, trees especially =) I believe that trees have much to teach if one is still enough to hear it.
All I can say is: Thankyou, you have perfectly summed up my animist belief’s in a simple way, conveying an extremely complex belief that I personally find very difficult to word( maybe because I’m only 15, and with age I shall learn). So Thankyou 😊
Excellent series of reflections here, thank you for this. The concept of ''the person'' have been resistant to philosophical definition for many, many centuries. The idea that only humans (adult, male, ''rational'' humans using the ''proper'' language) are fully realised ''persons'' is long-standing and dangerous prejudice of European cultures... from Plato to the 19th century! There have been a few notable historical exceptions such as Saint Francis of Asissi's mysticism (especially the 'Canticle of Brother Sun') but mystics were never far from the risk of incineration. Nietzsche's forray into the idea of other-than-human-life is also a rich resource, also Henri ( and Mina) Bergson. What you say here gives me hope that these somewhat subterranean currents of thought are now re-emerging as serious options for survival and flourishing. the acknowledgement of non-human 'personhood' and communication with the ''outside of the human'' is as you say - a precondiiton for the furtherance of life, not a hipppy-dippy luxury of late capitalism. Thanks again for this material! M.D.P.
As a biologist I believe that our human nature is still evolved to favor living in a small tribal group of 150 people. There is significant differences between ethnic groups in genetics, morphology, physiology and culture evolved in thousands of years. Ecologically we are designed to be prey for large predators as well we serve as food for microorganisms. Well and I have lived alltogether 1 year with tribal shamans in Nepal. Real understanding can grow only when you grow up as a child in these societies. Personally I loved it, I was chosen to be gifted but I know the differences and limitations. Also I stayed with people in South America and West Africa...
Biochemist here. I completely agree. Being an animist and a scientist is so much fun but also agony when peers are closed minded and biased. I love this field because the more I learn the more I find out how much we don’t actually know. We’re just another animal species and we have barely evolved since Paleolithic days. Small communities would be much more sustainable for humans, at least at this point in our evolution.
wow. i stumbled across this accidentally and want to *thank you* for your thought provoking insights. i’ve always considered myseld an animist but never thought of it from the grander perspectives you've addressed, such as the implications for modern humanity, empathy, and more. i’m going to rewatch this again and check out some of your other videos. best, c
Arith Soul friend or journey. Improvements from covid and I feel like he's better and recovered. You know your videos and wisdom are at least therapeutic for me. I was sick and bad, but with this video and especially the ANIMISM theme that fascinates and attracts me, I'm better and with more hope. Thank you for existing and sharing your genius and humility drops of hope like the dew of a new dawn. Eternal gratitude! Thank you for your attention and help today and always 🙏 🙏 🙏. Missing YOU, hugs from Leonardo Marajó Island Pará Brazil *HOPE YOU AND ALL HERE HQVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR WITH HEALTH AND LOVE🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻♥️🌻*
Amazing video, I feel you have a very good perspective and thank you for sharing it. My partner and I discussed this topic for a time and we both agreed that alongside Racism, Sexism and Speciesism, Classism was missing when we tried to apply the other three to several global topics and it didn't work. Wealth can make divides in society, just as easily as the other three you mentioned. Perhaps something to consider. Either way, despite it being 3 months ago from this comment, I hope COVID passed quickly for you and you feel stronger than ever. May peace be with you 🙏
I rarely comment but I would like you to know I am always happy to download your content so I can absorb it thoroughly. Your intros are great and your delivery is very pleasing. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
Great video. I myself have been healing from a respiratory illness the last couple weeks, so I sympathize and hope you are starting to feel better nowadays. The later discoveries in quantum mechanics have led to a modern version of animism that is being investigated by science, which they call panpsychism. Maybe the ancestors were right! We may be able to save ourselves from self-annihilation by interacting with our environment in a relational way instead of trying to manipulate everything and everyone. Thanks for the reminder.
Amazing video. I had a violent life as well, riding in a motorcycle club; I'm lucky in not dead or in prison. I had so much anger that didn't start to subside until I discovered Animism.
first let me say that you will get through this and be fit and well again very soon .... I have in the past 2 years had it 3 times and it is a real shit and takes a few weeks after the all clear to really get back to your old self but you will get there believe me ! as too the video , as i have said before while we keep referring to 'humans and animals' instead of ' human animals and other animals ' we will keep thinking of ourselves as very special beings that are not connected to other animals ..... we often say to people ' you behave like an animal ' which shows that in our minds we forget we are animals ...... respect of all others comes with understanding that we are animals and live in a world of other animals and persons ..... may your year ahead be a great one my friend !
Arith Amigo de alma ou jornada. Melhoras do covid e sinto que está melhor e recuperado. Sabe que seus vídeos e sabedoria são no mínimo terapêuticos para mim. Estaca mal, mas com esse vídeo e principalmente o tema ANIMISMO que me fascina e atrai, estou melhor e com mais esperança. Obrigado por existir e compartilhar sua genialidade e na humildade gotas de esperança como o orvalho de um novo amanhecer. Gratidão eterna! Obrigado pela atenção e ajuda hoje e sempre 🙏 🙏 🙏. Abraço saudoso de Leonardo Marajó Island Pará Brazil
I socialize as little as possible. Work is the one place where I have no other choice but to be with 35 coworkers, 3-4 per cubicle. Other than that, I avoid most human interaction, mainly because I find I have little to nothing in common with them, so there is no base for a meaningful conversation or even understanding of their mindset very often.
I really got animism when I spent time in the wilderness, especially with intelligent plants, enthiogens. Intellectually I got animism when I read Tom Robbins, Another Roadside Attraction, among others. Celestine Prophecy really captured it, very different writing style than Tom Robbins of course.
First time seeing a video that sounds just like Nordic animism video but somehow is not haha. Lovely video and Lovely said. Happy new year and thanks for the reminder.
I definitely have become more charismatic through my animistic capacity (skills that have improved through animism) and which contribute to the atmosphere of a social space. For one I am always being told Of my “healing aura” That I’d like to contribute to my natural reaction and impulse to peoples speech as one of general understanding
Hope you are feeling better soon ❤ As a socially inept person, I struggle with anxiety. How would I even approach to socialize with others if I find the whole concept intimidating? Asking for help
If you ever feel like it, I would actually love to hear about your past and life in general. I think it makes people so much more relatable to know where they came from. Sounds like you are a cycle breaker coming from violence and choosing to not to continue that cycle
Just out of curiosity, are you implicitly stating, that there was a time when humans lived in harmony with one another all looking the same, having the same customs and speaking the same language? Or did you mean that bad things started to happen when homogeneous cultures found other such cultures and they did not look alike and they did not speak the same language?
I've realized after looking into so many religions so much reading and self reflection that flowing with th people tribe or folk is th ultimate goal. We are made to work together just like every other species on earth. I don't mean socially although that's included I mean from a more macro sense. Just like a predator thins th herd of weak and overpopulation leading to advancement of life lower down th food chain. We also are part of this cycle in nature. If we could let go of our ego and thoughts we could flow with nature just as our instincts are desperately trying to tell us.
My dear friends, I had planned to be here for you in these last days of the year, but sadly on the 21st of December (2022) I had the first symptoms of Covid, and there it is, after escaping it for this long the little bugger finally caught up with me.

I have in the past 2 years had it 3 times and it is a real shit and takes a few weeks after the all clear to really get back to your old self but you will get there believe me ! as too the video , as i have said before while we keep referring to 'humans and animals' instead of ' human animals and other animals ' we will keep thinking of ourselves as very special beings that are not connected to other animals ..... we often say to people ' you behave like an animal ' which shows that in our minds we forget we are animals ...... respect of all others comes with understanding that we are animals and live in a world of other animals and persons ..... may your year ahead be a great one my friend !
Heart full of wishes for a speedy recovery of your health
thank you for starting this video with specifity. "last video of 2022....on this channel...." that resolved a rather large chunk of tension.

Amigo de alma ou jornada.
Melhoras do covid e sinto que está melhor e recuperado.
Sabe que seus vídeos e sabedoria são no mínimo terapêuticos para mim.
Estaca mal, mas com esse vídeo e principalmente o tema ANIMISMO que me fascina e atrai, estou melhor e com mais esperança.
Obrigado por existir e compartilhar sua genialidade e na humildade gotas de esperança como o orvalho de um novo amanhecer.
Gratidão eterna!
Obrigado pela atenção e ajuda hoje e sempre 🙏 🙏 🙏.

thank you Arith
The Earth is our mother ,and everything living on her are her children.In the other realms, there is even more life.
Animism is truth
Very nice voice. Interesting thinker! Really appreciate it. Thank you.
incredible video, like usual, thanks a lot !
I socialize as little as possible. Work is the one place where I have no other choice but to be with 35 coworkers, 3-4 per cubicle.
Other than that, I avoid most human interaction, mainly because I find I have little to nothing in common with them, so there is no base for a meaningful conversation or even understanding of their mindset very often.
Another awesome video! Thank You🖤💫🤍
Thank you .. Truth is truth .
Be well dear friend, and know your light shines in us, and we reflect it back to you when you need some, love, hope and peace.
Thank you for a great video, happy new year my friend!
You forgot an important thing against which we must fight: CLASSISM.
Someone else may be attempting to socialize at 14:19.
Thank you for another year of excellent content!
I love you man. Well said! peace tp you from the California desert.
tottally agree..happy yule and new year thank you
What a beautiful way to start off the new year. Thank you.
Great talk!
I really got animism when I spent time in the wilderness, especially with intelligent plants, enthiogens. Intellectually I got animism when I read Tom Robbins, Another Roadside Attraction, among others. Celestine Prophecy really captured it, very different writing style than Tom Robbins of course.
I appreciate your wisdom and the manner in which you deliver it for us to benefit from.
First time seeing a video that sounds just like Nordic animism video but somehow is not haha. Lovely video and Lovely said. Happy new year and thanks for the reminder.
Thank you, this is a beautiful perspective
Much respect for this video❤Great insights !!
I definitely have become more charismatic through my animistic capacity (skills that have improved through animism) and which contribute to the atmosphere of a social space. For one I am always being told Of my “healing aura” That I’d like to contribute to my natural reaction and impulse to peoples speech as one of general understanding
Well said; you're doing great work
I'm tired of those who are not growing and evolving. Their everywhere, it pains me, makes my heart heavy.
I just checked your fb as I watch this (it is almost ritual for me, lol). I wish you the best and will always be a follower.
Amazing. Get well soon
Hope you are feeling better soon ❤
As a socially inept person, I struggle with anxiety. How would I even approach to socialize with others if I find the whole concept intimidating? Asking for help
If you ever feel like it, I would actually love to hear about your past and life in general. I think it makes people so much more relatable to know where they came from. Sounds like you are a cycle breaker coming from violence and choosing to not to continue that cycle
Just out of curiosity, are you implicitly stating, that there was a time when humans lived in harmony with one another all looking the same, having the same customs and speaking the same language? Or did you mean that bad things started to happen when homogeneous cultures found other such cultures and they did not look alike and they did not speak the same language?
Very helpful video, thank you!
Animistic perspective led me to veganism 10 years ago ❤️
I agree.
animism rules!
at 14:30 - a group of birds are very happy about this conversation
The biggest issues in society right now are not racism/sexism etc. It's class issues and neverending war
What about mosquitos? Is it wrong to kill them? I don't think so... I actually enjoy it very much!
One things for certain in nature- the only thing we are equal is death 💛
I've realized after looking into so many religions so much reading and self reflection that flowing with th people tribe or folk is th ultimate goal. We are made to work together just like every other species on earth. I don't mean socially although that's included I mean from a more macro sense. Just like a predator thins th herd of weak and overpopulation leading to advancement of life lower down th food chain. We also are part of this cycle in nature. If we could let go of our ego and thoughts we could flow with nature just as our instincts are desperately trying to tell us.
YOU ARE *GREAT*!
Eu amei 🐍🐍🐍☀️☀️🌻🤘🤘🤘🐍🔥🔥💜

On Face Book, I have spent many hours listening too and understanding what Longhouse Stuart Myiow has to say and teach.
