Philippine mythology is a treasure trove of strange and mythical creatures, but I bet you didn't know that Ancient Filipinos had their own pantheon of gods and goddesses. In today's episode, we'll be looking at the gods and goddesses of the Ancient Tagalogs.

I wonder if some folk healers still call unto Tagalog deities.

[@Letitallhangout]

I call unto some of them in my nightly prayers and occasional rituals.

Bathala word po is from India. It is from Sanskrit word "Bhattara" or "Shiva" meaning Lord or God. Tulad rin po ng salitang Diwata, sa Sanskrit rin sa India galing na Devatā meaning Diyosa or Goddess in English.

[@adz723]

[@giancarloacedo8887]

Can you do an Ancient Visayan Pantheon?

[@nipatales]

That is definitely in the works! Thank you so much for your interest :)

[@startreker8591]

Kapangpangan abe 😂 y Zambal Pangasinensen

[@Letitallhangout]

Interested in that too, as I have Boholano ancestry ​@nipatales

[@RacerX1971]

Abba also sang Dancing Queen

[@chacri08]

Precolonial Philippines have Mythology, too….Too bad it was wiped out by the Spaniards….The schools should teach these or make a Teleserye..

[@PlatyMadness]

'Bahala na' actually translates to 'Whateva!'

[@ninamarieiiimiller806]

Yeah, but ut still derives from Bathala na. In short, let the will of god be done.

[@tuershen366]

No. "Bathala" is a Sanskrit word from India "Bhattara" meaning Lord or God.

[@josuadelsocorro5772]

the original name of Mayari is Kulalaying... the name mayari probably cognates from the May ari ng Bulan.

[@gaufrid1956]

Maganda talaga si Mayari at Tala!

[@danilopagaduan8814]

ABBA means Father in heaven. Bathala means God. It was Spain who brought idolatry and Paganism to the land .

[@mngkklm]

The music was too relaxing for the Agents of Sitan part lol I've heard of locals unaliving tarsiers for the reason of those marsupials raising a finger towards someone and predicting their death.

[@monalisacarido6573]

Marami pa yan sa lumang libro ko yon nabasa hindi ko na lang masyadong tanda

[@ashleypatrick228]

Will you study the visayan ancient history?

[@user-tu9fr6yn7i]

Bathala was the local evolution of the Hindu god Indra Bathara.

[@gerdz101]

Sino yung nakaimbento ng palay sa pamamagitan ng paglagay ng gatas ng inahin sa halaman.

[@markjasonperalta8647]

Almost the same beliefs with the Hebrew people in the ancient days.

[@jaygonzales8258]

What does abba mean in Aramaic? (Jesus's language)
Abba means Father.

[@bb89670]

Father. ABBA Ama

[@nelsanchez4516]

don't you think manggagaway, mangkukulam, and hukluban just sounds like witches of the west in three stages of power? hmmmm... the likeness is uncanny.

[@murgesgc]

This is crazy because like most of other religions there is the theme of after life, judgement of soul, heaven and hell. Why did we need Spanish civilization to basically come and spread their belief when we already had a similar belief story. Shit is just crazy. Everything basically roots to the same origin story.

[@bb89670]

Abba (God) is father.

[@pedrokawali7144]

wala si Lakambini 😭

[@ninamarieiiimiller806]

I think lakambini is visayan pantheon. Tagalog pantheon kasi to. Or baka mali ako 😂

[@nadonado648]

Lakambini is from Kapampngan pantheon, goddess of fertility sya...

[@Ibrahim_Hidayat]

@@ninamarieiiimiller806 Visayans have no lakans

[@alfarwqro]

Bisaya are the real Filipinos

[@sheisadolly]

Bathala isn’t man, but both man and woman. Ikapati (Lakapati) is also a trans deity which you left out. This video is in the lens of Christianity and the West!

[@kenxinhxc1635]

sabhin nyo kat bathala wag sya mag petiks dami makasalanan sa government mayor dito sa binangonan tulak ng droga

[@jemeldraneaumali5635]
