Download or read book The Othala Edda written by Faolchú Ifreann and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Othala Edda is the result of the culmination of years of meditation, research and worship of Odin. Within this text you will find a large section of Lays from The Poetic Edda translated into modern-day English with comprehensive notes on each stanza. I have also included interpretations of sections of The Heimskringla to provide a historical insight into our religion. It was my goal to create a text which encompasses what I believe to be "Essential Odinism". This work took several grueling months to write, review, and format. We had the help of great artists Dan Moreschi and Tony Sahara who also helped us with our first book "Odin's Chosen: A Handbook of Asatru". This is a great book for anyone, whether you are beginning to read the Lays or have read the Lays and need an extra hand in deciphering those Lays. We hope everyone enjoys reading this book as much as we did creating it.

Book excerpt: In 2009 The Norroena Society published The Asatru Edda, which has become the beginning of a true hierology for the Odinist or Asatru religion. With an intact body of sacred lore, the Society has been able to take leaps and bounds in discovering new ways that these ancient traditions relate to one another, and how they connect to the Indo-European model. From this has developed an in-depth philosophy, The Odisbook, centered around the notion that the inner-spirit of man, the Odr, is meant to be inspired and driven towards new heights. This is the gift of the Gods, and is the cornerstone for much of what we do in ritual, in contemplation, and in spirituality. The Odisbook is a journey through the ages and through the mind and spirit of the reader. It begins with birth and takes you through the many stages of existence. Its purpose is to help you achieve a better life, a higher spirit, and a stronger relationship with the Gods of your people. Now the journey is yours to take, and the first step is in your hands...
