Finding Manuland

Introduction to Finding Manuland podcast

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 of 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, Karman, 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.

P.S. Once every episode is published, I will then add the corrected automated transcript to the Podcast post. This way, if you prefer to imbibe Power of Mana through textual means, you sill will be able to read the text of Finding Manuland podcasts. Thanks SO much for being a part of this.
