A Greek Gourmand, travels through time... Imagine yourself dining with Socrates, Plato, or Pythagoras! What tasty morsels of food accompanied the conversations of these most significant minds in Western philosophy? Now picture yourself as you sat for a symposium with Cicero, or Pliny the Elder or Julius Caesar. The opulent feasts of the decadent Romans! Maybe, you're following Alexander the Great during his military campaigns in Asia for ten years. Conquering the vast Persian empire, while discovering new foods. Or try and picture the richness of fruits and vegetables in the lush Hanging Gardens of Babylon. What foods did our ancestors ate? How did all begin? Who was the first to write a recipe down and why? Sauces, ingredients, ways of cooking. Timeless and continuous yet unique and so alien to us now days. Staple ingredients of the Mediterranean world -as we think now- like tomatoes, potatoes, rice, peppers, didn't exist. What did they eat? We will travel far and wide, reconstructing the diet, the feasts, the dishes of a Greek Philosopher in a symposium in Athens, or a Roman Emperor or as a rich merchant in the last night in Pompeii.....Lavish dinners, exotic spices, so-called 'barbaric' traditions of beer and milk, all intertwined...

Ireland has been inhabited mythically for 33,000 years with the first humans arriving about 10,000 years ago. Known as the Neolithic and Megalithic period, humans used small stone tools, and polished and crafted with points and attached to antlers, bone or wood to serve as spears and arrows. They often lived nomadically in camps by rivers and bodies of water. The Ancient Greeks called Ireland The Ancient Island! Ireland has 70% of Europe's rock art. The megalithic structures have many stories and New Grange is older than the pyramids and Stonehenge. These residents of Ireland were observers of the night sky who understood cosmic patterns. Irish Mythology has magical journeys to the Otherworld, stories of Irish heroes like Cú Chulainn, tales of monsters and time-travel that inspired Tolkien Lords of the Rings as well as the books of C.S. Lewis. A whole world of amazing stories are waiting for you! https://www.facebook.com/ClanNaGaelDE https://www.irishrosegiftshop.com/ more

Finding Manuland takes us on mental journeys across the space between Ireland and India. Finding Manuland moves us across time from 4,000 BCE until the present. Our mental models of how the past and the present interact expand, through Finding Manuland. We begin around 4,000 BCE with the Yamnaya community who lived between the Don and the Dniepr rivers of Ancient Ukraine. These Yamnaya created the first Indo-European language. They buried their dead, covered in ochre, with their knees flexed, in the hundreds of thousands of mounds that still remain in the lands between Ireland and India - Manuland. Today, over half of humanity uses sounds and meanings first forged on the Ukrainian steppe. Immanent in the genome of most humans who live in Manuland is the mitochondrial DNA of our Yamnaya ancestors. Everyone who can understand these words in an Indo-European language, is the cultural descendant of this community of migrants who spread so successfully east and westwards across the Steppelands from Ancient Ukraine.Decoding Trolls is the first to discover that immanent in almost every sentence we speak or think through an Indo-European language is an M-N- sound coupled with meanings that were first forged by our Yamnaya forebears. This might just be a coincidence. Or the M-N- sound might be THE fundamental cryptotypic semantic signalling system undermining the matrices of metaphors through which we communicate today. M-N- might well be a permanent monument, remnant and reminder of the Yamnaya and indeed Mana - the Subtle Energy we exchange with humans and animals - anchored in almost every thought we have. In any event, Mana, Woden, Nous, Holy Spirit, Prana, Ch'i, Ki, Libido, Mungo, Synchronicity, Anima Mundi, Orenda, Manitu, Wong, Tondi, … are all manifestations of the same phenomenon that was present in the minds of Yamnaya, as in all ancient and contemporary humans. If only we can connect again to Mana, and harness it to impact positively every interaction we have inside our communities. Such are the ideas that Finding Manuland elucidates located in the space, time, and culture of Manuland.So our story emanates from Ancient Ukraine, and terminates in the questions: Why is this M-N- sound and its associated meanings so immanent in Indo-European culture? Can we know what this immanence means? If Mana is what remains of us in others when we leave them, then, there is Mana. Mana's permanent. Let's communicate positive Mana. And Finding Manuland will help remind you of this, in every interaction you experience today with other sentient beings. www.powerofmana.net more
