Hi everyone, tonight we have a double episode.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Firstly, we'll be hearing the Viking story of Heem. Heimdahl. Heimdahl is the god that keeps watch for invaders and the onset of Ragnarok. He protects the bifrost, the rainbow bridge which links Earth that is known as Midgard, to Asgard, the home of the gods. In popular culture, he is played by Idris Elba in the Marvel films, which of course is a very different story. You will hear how Heimdal tells a story of how things come to be, a creation tale to Hanessa, the God of Desire and the daughter of Freya. After this story, you will hear a deep gratitude meditation, where we look for gratitude and thanks in all parts of our lives. You can sit or lie down listening to this meditation.
Starting point is 00:03:03 it is very peaceful and will deeply relax you. I really hope you enjoy it. Begin. Heemdal and little Hanesa How all things came to be. Hanesa, the child of Freya and the lost Odor was the youngest of all the dwellers in Asgard. And because it had been prophesised
Starting point is 00:03:34 that the child would bring her father and her mother together Little Hinesa was often taken without the city of gods to stand by Bifrost the Rainbow Bridge so she might greet great odour if his steps turned towards Asgard The palaces of the city of the gods Little Hinesa was made welcome In Frenzelir
Starting point is 00:04:04 The halls of the mists Where Frigga the wife of Odin all father sat spinning with golden threads in Brit de la Blik where Baldo the well-beloved lived with his fair wife the young Nana in Bilsclanur
Starting point is 00:04:26 the winding house where Thor and Siff lived and in Odin's own place Valis Jaff that was all roofed over with silver shields The greatest of all was Glad Glazier
Starting point is 00:04:50 and little Hanessa looked within and saw Odin. All father seated, blew over him, and a shining helmet, shaped like an eagle upon his head. Odin would sit there, not eating at all, but drinking the wine of the gods, the food off the table, and giving it to Jerry and Frecky, the two wolves that were. crouched beside his seat. She loved to go outside the great gate. Beside Heimdel, the rainbow bridge, that she might watch. She would sit beside Heimdell and listen to the wonders that he spoke of.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Heimdell held in his hands the horn that was called Lelahorn. He would sound it to let the dwellers in Asgard know that one was crossing the rainbow bridge. and Heimdell told little Hinesse how he had trained himself to hear the grasses grow. You could see the night as well, as well as the day. He never slept. He had nine mothers, he told Hinesa. As she sat beside him, day after day, Heimdell would tell little Hnesa how all things began.
Starting point is 00:06:52 He had lived from the beginning of time and he knew all things before Asgard was built he said And before Odin lived What was then was the chasms of chasms There was knife helm There was muffle helm A veilgamer that pulled out 12 rivers
Starting point is 00:07:37 The chasms of chasms Janungagap The chasms of chasms filled up with ice The waters of the rivers froze As they poured into it Musfer helm came clouds of fire that turned the ice into thick mists. It fell down again in drops of dew.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Drops were formed. Ancient giant travelled along by the twelve rivers, until he came to wear another living form were standing in the mists. This was a giant cow. Udhamler, cider and drank her milk, formed out of the dew, and it fell to the ground.
Starting point is 00:08:47 The daughters of the frost. and Ymir the ancient giant married one and their children breathed on he saw that a figure was being formed it was not like a giant's form it was more shapely and more beautiful as Yemir looked upon the being that was being formed he hated him for his beauty
Starting point is 00:09:35 Oud Humler the giant cow went on licking the place where she had breathed stepped from him so much that he would have slated him so much that he would have slain him then and then. But he knew that if he did, the cow would feed him no more with her milk. First of the heroes.
Starting point is 00:10:12 He lived too on the milk of the carried a daughter of the ancient giant and he had a son. But Yomir and Yemir's son hated bear. And the time came at last when they were able to kill him. There was a war between Yomir and Yomir's sons and the sons and sons of Burr. And Odin was the son of Burr's son.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Odin brought all his brothers together and they were able to destroy Yomir and all his brood, all except one. So huge was Yomir that when he was slain his blood pulled out in such a mighty flood that his sons were all drowned in it. except Berger Mill who was in a boat with his wife when the flood came
Starting point is 00:11:12 who floated away on the flood to the place that is Noel called Jottenheim of the giants and his sons took the body of Yomir the vastest body that ever was and they flung it into the chasm of chasms all the hollow places with it they dug the bones out of the body and they piled them up as mountains.
Starting point is 00:11:45 They took the teeth and they made them into rocks and they took the hair of Ymir and they made it into the forest of the trees. They took his eyebrows and formed them into the place where men now dwell mid-guard and out of Yomir's hollow skull they made the sky and his sons and the brothers did more than this
Starting point is 00:12:11 in the sky live across the sky She drove a horse that has named Him Fax Frosty Maine It is called Skin Fax Shining Maine From Himfax's bit

Starting point is 00:13:22 the earth, gave them the tasks of tending the streams, and the flowers, the veneer he made peace after a wall that had been waged. Here the giant, who escaped drowning in Yamir's blood, had sons and daughters in Jottenheim. They hated Odin, and his sons and strove against them, lightened up the world. With the sun and the moon, they were very rough, the fiercest of the mighty walls of Jottenheim, and set them to follow them. Soul, to wonders, stood Heimdow, with the golden teeth, the youngest of the dwellers in Asgard. Often the child stayed with him by the rainbow bridge, and saw the gods pass to to and from Midgard. A town of stars, Milneur in his hands, with the gloves of iron that he used
Starting point is 00:14:54 when he grasped Milner, Thor in his chariot drawn by two goats, and wearing the belt that doubled his strength.

The story that he brings to Nidhog
Starting point is 00:17:51 make the evil dragon more fiercely want to destroy the tree of trees so that he may come upon the eagle and devour him. There are two wells by the roots of the tree, and one is above, and one is below. One is beside the root that grows in Jottenheim is a one of knowledge, and it is guarded by old Mimmer the Wise. Whoever drinks out of this well knows of all things, that will come to be. The other well is by the root that grows above us guard, No one may drink out of this well.
Starting point is 00:18:41 The three sisters that are holy norns guard it, to water the tree of trees, that the tree of life may keep green and strong. This well, little Hinesa, is called Erda's well. And little Hanesa heard that by Erda there were two beautiful white swans that made in music that the dwellers of Nazgard often heard.
