-Could it be a bit meagre to call all the big creatures giants, and all the small creature dwarfs?
-Yes, meagre, to say the least. A good word you chose here.
When we understand the names they are given, then we see their role in our lives. We shall enjoy sorting them out.

32 tröll jötnar þurs-maidens wights dwarfs

You might have come across the translation “giants” for the divers and entirely different big powers. This is, flatly, not adequate. Exposes utter lack of understanding terms and their functions.
Tröll are our ignorance, of which we must rid ourselves; we do not see our ignorance because of our ignorance.
Jötnar, eotens, are colossal eaters, the useful sweeping-up department; but -as free radicals in our body they are a very bad squad.
Þursar are old, now useless, states/stages of evolution. We have to leave them behind. Evolving is the purpose of life.
The main thing is to know what we are doing here, I mean, what we should know about what we should be doing here, i.e., I mean: we should know what we are doing here.
But that is not enough. We shall also learn how to avoid stagnation, ignorance, and the danger of “not-doing-anything” regarding the only worthy goal. Óðsmál will teach you how to reach the goal, the easiest way to evolve fast towards perfection, siddhi, enlightenment, the goal of human life-spans.

More to ponder on:

* what is the fundamental difference between theocracies and ancient traditions?
–besides the fact that Heathenry, forni siður (ancient traditions), is neither sold not bought for money
* forni siður gives fulfilment in life and good health
* forni siður is completely useless for gaining power over others
* forni siður is all about understanding the purpose of life
* we all gain fair winds for all good deeds and evolutionary actions, regardless of systems or life-style we might cherish, by nýsa niður, laying our Bifröst (pronounce Biff-roest;
* please do not say buy-frost for Bifröst)
* we can, in this context, read the book Óðsmál – The Unseen Reality (2013) (available on Amazon) and here FREE Óðsmál – The Unseen Reality: Science of Consciousness in Heathenry by odsmal.org – issuu
* and the Óðsmál book 2015: How to Lay the Bridge Bifröst – available on Amazon and here FREE How to Lay the Bridge Bifröst, Layer by Layer as if Drizzling Invisible Star-dust by odsmal.org – issuu
* is acceptable that education is used to destroy? can we call it education?
* are we educated if we violate the Laws of Nature?
— if no, then what is education and what is not education?
* are the Icelandic words menntun (education) and menning (culture) from the same stem as Icelandic maður (man, mankind, humans)?
* could Nature have been turned into the bad skessa (trolless) in the mountain?
* during the dark aces, Icelanders were not allowed to enjoy the beauty of Nature, — we should rather draw curtains for windows as not to watch Nature, and read psalms and gospels, go to church, for the salvage of the soul
* note again that the ek, the I, individual consciousness ones made, the most subtle of makings,
connects to the element earth, the last to become,
* once the ek / I created, do we begin to fill the garage with stuff
* do wights live, i.e. do they “have a life”, in folklore?
* some folklore and popular stories have been manipulated to the worse; — the original meaning of elves being helpful and good, has been turned to their revenge and evil actions, contrary to the original – Why would that be?
* can some old fairy-tales and bed-time stories have a deeper meaning than we might spot at first sight?
* are we sure to understand concepts, names, poems, godspells found in our forni siður?

Til umhugsunar:

* hver er grundvallarmunurinn á guðveldum og fornum siðum?
–fyrir utan, að heiðni gefur ekki peninga heldur lífsfyllingu og heilzu,
—heiðni er ónothæf til valda
—heiðni gefur aðeins lífsþekkingu
* en allir menn fá meðbyr til allra góðra verka við að nýsa niður
–lesa má í þessu sambandi Óðsmál – The Unseen Reality (2013) (fæst á Amazon og ókeypis hér Óðsmál – The Unseen Reality: Science of Consciousness in Heathenry by odsmal.org – issuu) og Að leggja Bifröst, lag fyrir lag og ókeypis hér Að leggja Bifröst (Icelandic version) by odsmal.org – issuu
* er ásættanlegt að menntun sé notuð til eyðileggingar? menntun sé notuð til að stríða gegn náttúrulögmálunum?
–ef nei, er hér þá misnotkun á hugtakinu menntun?
* eru orðin menntun og menning samstofna orðinu maður?
* gæti náttúran verið skessan í fjallinu?
* um tíma var Íslendingum bannað að njóta fegurðar náttúrunnar; þeir áttu frekar að draga fyrir glugga og lesa sálma og guðsorðabækur, og fara í kirkju sér til betrunar
* athugið á ný að ek, einstaklingsvitund hið fíngerðasta og fyrst skapað, tengir sig höfuðskepnunni jörðu hinni grófustu
–(og við förum að fylla bílskúrinn af dóti)
* eiga vættir sér líf í þjóðsögum?
* eru sumar þjóðsögur og þjóðtrú orðnar misþyrming á upprunalegri merkingu?
* geta þjóðsagnavættir og ævintýri haft dýpri merkingu en talið er við fyrstu sýn?
* skiljum við örugglega hugtök, nöfn, kvæði, goðsagnir í forna sið?
