-Bird’s eye view? Are you trying to tell us that we do not see the whole picture?
-Not only that, but also we seem to, ignorantly and heedlessly, tread on some precious little flowers called weeds.
Shaking us up – Óðrerir and Þjóðrerir – so that we really want to understand the profundity of existence.

34 guided bird’s eye view
Litla kjaftfora völva, the little talkative völva, tends to put things forward in a straight and even shockingly true way. She, here, opens our eyes for what we should know but seem not to see or even give a thought. What we might call weeds in the moor, or heath, not noticing at all under our feed, litla kjaftfora völva brings to life for us. She tells us how we need to wake up. And we should know that duality is the cause of fear. We can live the sphere of no duality. We need not fear anything, as we need not live in sphere of time and space only. Human mind can easily expand to infinity, find the source of thought, the origin of all. Litla kjaftfora vövla also tells us about our ancient numbers 9 12 36 108 216 432 which our forefathers really held in esteem.
Guided bird’s eye view really means broad-mindedness and overview, as to fathom the whole, including all the beautiful differences, in the midst of which we live: that is our dear world and our precious life-spans on earth.

More to ponder on:
* what would illiteracy in a broader sense mean?
* could there be some truth in the theory about Æsir as men having originated in India and brought with them
culture, terms, names, and names of places found there?
* is pseudo-gold something glittering that we take for pure gold?
–if yes, do we sometimes get deceived by fakes?
* can we pretend being all-knowing by using complicated concepts (–sometimes called intellectual jargon–) without actually understanding them?
* can some get taken in/fooled by such Schauspiel-propagandists?
* will it be enough for our fast evolution to deny all worldly stuff, such as Gungnir and the gold of Gymisgarðar?
* or should we enjoy our things and belongings, and also show up in lognfara lundur, nýsa niður? (=transcend to consciousness)
* did Icelanders ever believe in that devil-invention?
* could Icelanders be frightened by such threats? (no, we mocked him)
* was (after year AD 999 in Iceland) considered funny and daring to put disdain on the gods with blasphemy and libellous poems?
–if yes, do you think that the ones who did that counted for supports from the new authorities?
* is still going on in the world some effort to try to make indigenous traditions look pathetic? and do some try to make them look like some superstitions?
–if yes, is that often done to replace them with theocracies?
* do all Heathens, Pagans, ásatrúarmenn, yet understand the profundity of the ancient tradition we own?
* do these men know who the gods are?
* might these people wear some labels, make some superficial values, surface, and thereby claim to be Heathens/Pagans/ásatrúar
* what is needed to legally found a religious sect/association?
* what is the gain (if any) of the registration?
* do some authors, scholars, artists — even official institutions — interpret Skírnismál Edda poem as porno and/or threat towards women?
* do our opinions expose our state of consciousness?
* do our opinions expose our knowledge?
* how is the invented/falsified “history” which Max Müller made for the British Empire and its exploitation of India?
* is this falsified stories still going strong, and even taught in schools?
* can lies be persistent once they have been circulated?
* is our poor little world a bit under-nourished?
* would that be something like Jesus calls: a withered branch?
* what is: waking out of the waking state?
* what do the names Óðrerir (Óðhrærir) and Þjóðrerir mean (note: hræra to stir, stir up, rerir hrærir he who stirs (up))
* do some mix up the 1)Icelandic Sagas on one hand, and on the other hand 2)Norse mythology, myths and poems?
* can you explain the difference between the two?
* which of the two, –1)Icelandic Sagas and 2)Norse mythology, myths and poems– is literature, which not?
* we (Icelanders) are lucky to be a nation having been in our own land since the settlement, no overtaking of any indigenous peoples
* can all nations take pride in this kind of inhabitation?
* many claim the Irish, who moved to Iceland perhaps around year 850(?) to have been fleeing the Roman Churchianity, owning a beautiful tradition themselves
* know the oldest man-made “house” in Iceland to be a man-made cave from the times/centuries of the settlement of the Irish
* numbers in our forni siður are interesting — please see in that context, yuga, cycles, age of our universe
* are time and space some created concepts
* what then about directions and spans?
* what is that which we call the form of “things”? (note that namarupa means name and form)
* are we our forefathers re-born
* do we actually get born in order to, in the end hopefully, to understand who we are in core and essence?

Til umhugsunar:
* hvað þýðir ólæsi í víðari skilningi?
* Helgi Hálfdánarson skrifaði orðin goðum líkir í einu orði goðumlíkir, og síðan
hefur orðið goðumlíkur sess sem rétt íslenzka
* er bitastæð kenningin um að Æsir sem menn hafi komið frá Indlandi og flutt með sér menningu og staðanöfn sem þar finnast?
* hafið þið heyrt kenningar Stens Bergmann um Israelsættirnar?
* eru fleiri kenningar um uppruna víkinga sem fluttu norður á bóginn?
* er orðið selsengull fyndið orð, og getum við tekið þetta til okkar? (selst sem gull)
* er hægt að slá um sig með orðum og hugtökum, án þess að skilja dýpt þeirra?
* er nóg fyrir okkur að hafna Gymisgarðagullinu og Gungni, eða verðum við að mæta í lognfara lundinn og nýsa niður?
* trúðu Íslendingar á djöfulinn? voru þeir ekki hræddir við neinar svona grýlur?
* þótti (og þykir enn?) fyndið að níða goðin, og sáluhjálp í að aðhyllast guðveldið rómverska?
* skildu heiðnir menn (skilja þeir nokkuð ennþá?) dýpt forna siðar eða hvað guðin eru í raun?
* gætu heiðingjar hengt á sig merkimiða, búið til yfirborð, sagst vera vo vo friðsamir og góðir, og talið sig þar með vera heiðna?
* hvað þarf til að fá skrásetningu trúfélags í lagalegum skilningi?
* hvað vinnst með því að skrásetja trúfélög?
* eru Skírnismál klámleikrit og/eða kvennakúgun í huga sumra höfunda, fræðimanna, listamanna, opinberra stofnana?
* lýsa skoðanir okkar vitundarstigi okkar?
* hver var hin upplogna saga Max Müllers gerð fyrir yfirráð Breta?
* er sú uppdiktaða saga lífseig (einsog annar uppspuni getur verið)?
* er grey litli heimurinn okkar næringarlaus? er það sama og hjá Jesú: ónýtur kvistur á eld kastað?
* hvað er að vakna uppúr vöku?
* hvað þýða nöfnin Óðrerir (Óðrærir) og Þjóðrerir? (-rerir, -rærir, sá sem hrærir upp í?)
* rugla sumir saman Íslendingasögunum (annars vegar) og (hins vegar) ævafornum norrænum goðsögunum og kvæðum?
* hver er munurinn? hvort er bókmenntir, hvort er menningararfleifð?
* gaman er og dýrmætt, að við erum þjóð sem alltaf hefur verið hér á okkar eigin landi. – það er kannski ekki hægt að segja um allar þjóðir, er það?
* talið er að Írar sem hingað fluttu í upphafi Íslands byggðar hafi ekki verið „Rómar-kristnir“ heldur átt miklu fegurri kristni eða fornan sið
* vitið af elsta manngerða húsnæðinu á Íslandi, manngerðum helli
* tölur í forna sið eru áhugaverðar, og athugið yúgur (ferli, og aldur alheims) í því sambandi
* er tími og rúm sköpunarfyrirbæri? áttir og vegalend?
* hvað er það sem við köllum lögun hluta? (ath nama-rúpa er nafn og lögun)
* erum við forfeður okkar endurbornir?
* fæðumst við til að skilja hver við erum í raun?
