>>20280909Ramayana has so many basic motifs (god being bound by a snake no less) but it’s all a confused mess totally folklorized.
Indrajit’s motifs make him almost exactly a Thraetoana, who is Odin in Norse mythology. So to unpack this we have to argue that Thor is mythically downgraded to Odin’s son after the story of his defeat in the Vanir war. In other words Thor used to be more Indra like but was downgraded in favor of Odin.
You can see that Loki gets a similar downgrade.
Of course it’s all fucked because Odin has features of Zahhak as well.
I swear to fuck if you try to unpack the core Arian mythology you encounter a few paradoxes it’s as if the true story was completely fucked with.
Fereyduhn is supposed to fight Zahhak, but they are the same character in Odin, and yet that’s not unheard of. But then you have Loki bound underground by the snake, then Zahhak in Persia, but it’s Yamu in Semitic cultures the sea god causing the earthquakes.
Shit gets so mixed up you can’t distill the essential myth.
Jews are Kalami by the way. The theory is they come from the Kali Shiva cult. This is how Kabbalah and Tantra end up connected.
