COMMENTARY     

Anthony (Melbourne)
21st February 2009
I find that you are as dismissive as others of the Slovonic (note not Slavonc) traditions. You are probably quoting others who know nothing but take a propaganda stand. I will only address a few things.

Kupała God of ablutions and aggregation, wife Dziewanna paralles Christian christening so closely that I would hazard a guess abd say that Christianity is a deriuvative of the Kupała rites!!! This is not proof, I happen to be knowledgeable in this area. Do not forget that Christianty is only 2000 years old while the Slovonic culture and religion are ancient!! The vocabulary associated with Kupała is: Kupiec = merchant - they aggregate to sell, skupisko = a gathering, odkupiciel = redeemer!!!! (through baptism), kupa = pile or heap also gathering of water, skupiemie = conentration of thought, kąpiel = bathing (kupanie), Dziewanna (Dzievanna) the Divine Maiden derived from the term Dziewa Dziwa = Divina = Deus, Dziw, Zeus, Dzeus, dies, dzień, day. The terms derived from her name Dziewa = Maiden, dziewica = virgin, dziewczyna = girl, dziewczynka = little girl etc

So you see there is a language religion link quite forgotten by most. There are still Światowid worshipers out there you know!! Not everything has been forgotten, its kept a secret by and large.

Łado and Łada are not just bar room terms but true Gods. They are the gods of ORDER and drive the order and power vocabulary. The dissmissive claim was used to get the Catholic church of peoples backs. The derived terms are Władca- ruler, Władza - Power, Ład = order, Ładny = orderly - beautiful, gładaki = smooth, ogłada = culture, skład = structure, kłaść = to arrange - deposit. The religion is intimately associated wityh the language, and the validity of the terminology can be thus determioned.

Cześć i Słava = Hail and Glory
