22:30 In the example of a mountains spirit. Coming in a good way. Recognising its presence on your way in. Any pains or breathlessness are offerings. Songs or stories told are offerings. Clearing litter from others is taking care. Going there often to build relationship. Also, realising that the observance of time is much slower to a mountain than how we see and interact with life, just as our interactions with life is much slower when compared to that of a hummingbird. And mountains are big spirits which other spirits reside, which adds another layer.
As a high school punk/metalhead I got interested in green anarchism and the work of animists like Daniel Quinn. In college, I started out as a philosophy major but ended up switching to religious studies at the end of freshman year after a life-changing and gnosis-imparting visitation by Kālī (involving a combination of haṭha yoga and mushrooms), which put the previous 4 years of severe physical and mental illness into a meaningful perspective. There’s a lot of overlap between Asian spiritual/philosophical traditions such as Buddhism, Tantric Hinduism, Daoism, etc. and indigenous views on the animacy of natural phenomena and interconnectedness between humans and nature. As an individual, mortal embodiment of consciousness, I value the mostly-latent capacity of humans to empathize with other consciousnesses. I view esoteric empathy as an often-underdeveloped psychic sense that has the potential to give people an intuitive insight into the inner being of other consciousnesses and experiential knowledge of the underlying unity between outwardly separate subjects and objects.
@@NordicAnimism It is a copypasta variant of the wake up babe meme. It is the "gen z compliment" way of saying that I sent my wife out to the gym to binge your latest uploads. Although here in Israel it is called the 3rd generation, not gen z, because of the Holocaust.
Good video, however Mr. Jones uses "you know" as a fill way too much. Not trying be too harsh as I know it can be hard to communicate things, just something that he can work on.

So it's the recognition between the similarities as well as difference.
Honey it's OK you can go to the gym tonight, a Nordic Animism just dropped.

i respectfully ask to have conversation with you or anyone that's for conversation on this topic.

You obviously missed the point by being focused on policing the guest 🙄
@@gnostic268 it's called constructive criticism and it's how we grow. You obviously missed me stating it was a good video...
