Old times' skills of living in a forest hut

 " In a forest hut, "Time passes, but husband hasn't returned" ( a happy ending via wishing well and high skills ) 


 I watched a music video of Korpiklaani ("forest dwelling men"), called something like A wordless land, which ought to be in the meaning life experience not put to words. It had English lyrics in the video description, but I do not know if the words were the point. They seemed to wonder, had it been possible for anyone to grow wheats here, since the ground and climate did not appear bringing large enough crops for farming. But as far as I know most of the lands in Finland were uninhabited forests, but the more fruitful pieces of land are niwadays typically fields, even though some of them for grasses for animals. There used to be more swamps, but those were dried at some point in history, and the resulting landscape of hills and lakes is much nicer for life. 

But how did people in the old times live in a forest hut? As far as I know thry did some farming and fishing, maybe also had some animsls, but those were mostly for one's own use plus some exchange with neighbours etc. 

The song had also some words, as if spoken quietly thinking by a maybe elderly woman living or spending some part of the year in a forest hut: "Time is passing, but husband hasn't returned (from a walk or from some work in the forest)". So how were such situatilns solved? With one's own wisdom of lufe and supporting the wisdom of life of the environment, both of children, animals, birds, people of the area, even religious connections taken into account, living with grest wisdom of life and good quality, wishing well in the world, lifting the lives to healthy wise far carrying ways which wish well in the world and respect beautiful values and wisdom of life about good ways of doing and individual's life choices' importancy, wishing well and wisely also in the spiritual realms, valuing also animals and their wisdom and social support, the singing birds spreading thr joint effort of the people, animals, spiritual connections, etc wider, respecting beautiful values, lifting also quality high and wisdom of feelings followed, and spreading so good luck, common sense and basic communication. And so helped to wise ways the husband may return and ordinary life continues, caring also for the helpers, making the way of life carry wisely in the long run. Similarly if the husband died or was in an accident, one tries to carry the situation well, wisely from the point of view of feelings and life in the long run, cultivating important values, and so maybe such wisdom helps also in the spiritual realm if one has wise enough helpers, the nature cared wisely enough. And so one can live there. But another type of character would like more people around, less emphazis on skills, and so they would flourish in warmer countries and not here.

So maybe they can live there, because they live in a good way suited to there, good for the world too  and like such life maybe best, it is a good place for them, and even if they die there, it is a good merciful place for them to die in just such a place, and so they just wish well and continue life in good wise ways with healthy spirit. And so it is good that they live there, and so the husband maybe returns unharmed and life just continues.

Obs. This text is aimed at a global audience, so the situations and skills vary a lot. ( There is a climate skills advice for all climates, which has to be applied to just local conditions, at the blog www.EasyHealing.info , see https://curingguesses.blogspot.com/2024/03/heat-regulation-etc-skills-advice-for.html . ) 

The basic thing with the above text is that if you invest in raising your skill level in a way that raises also the skill level of your family etc in your large near environment, for example via birdsong in daylight time, or by atmosphere of sounds of human chores indoors, then those sharing the same view on skills and values, may survive better than they otherwise could have, and so you get more ordinary life like result. But such cooperation works best if you respect the nature and the traditional ways of living of the area.

 Please observe that Finnish ways of thinking and a quite big part of Finnish wisdom of life are well suited for using inside the civiliced picture of the world, with the help of objective thinking and civiliced values, and so such may be in use all over the world, in very different kinds of places, in even in space and among animals. The Finnish daytime temperatures may vary about 60 degrees of Celcius during the year, so also some Finnish climate advices may be in used in very varied kinds of places. So if some advice in Finland or from Finland appears not-so-Finnish in atmosphere of it's effect, it may be that it is in use in for example South-East Asia, and so you have to take a much more local approach to get it work well. But there is also lots of sabotage, malicious deeds and persons disguised as trustworthy traditional Finnish ones.

Happiness, ways of doing and living environment


"A stick there catching fire
shines for a moment, gets extinguished in the river.
Love dies also sometimes too,
only a memory is left in life's handiwork."
says a song.
I was left pondering that experiencing so rtongly and wit so healthy spirit life is rich and happy, somehow full. But it has the work of a log floater on a river with the nature as it's environment, natural physical work, company, meaningfullness from the point of view of lives in practise, demanding skill but not with a forced rythm. Earlier I used to think that such is born only countryside or at a summer cottage, maybe wandering ina forest trip. But after I have moved to live in a counryside town, I have gotten the impression that a farmer is somehow melancholic and in town it is somehow full, the antuer too present and practical professions as people's jobs. Could it be that one cannot reach the ideal fully countryside but somewhere where there is both nature and humand and lots of things to do? It is important for the things done to have anatural rythm and such asks for both a natural work and possibilities for choices. The feeling of fullness connects with fractureless wholes and to being according to the human nature, which demands among other tyings action with healthy spirit, meaningful things to do for each one inone's own ways, not acting one's way but isntead in ways that work out well for oneself, according to one's motivation and one's dreams, in ways that one likes and not for acting out. It is essential to reach the phenomena in life in their natural basic form that touches the human nature, but it maybe isn't when driving a tractor but instead in cooperation work of a group, by grandparents, on a summer cottage, on a wooden one-family house, in hobbies, in connection with motiuon and nature. A pet seems tocultivate these like a collector, a wild animal finds them fromone's own life inpractise. It has often been nice in work if one does in practise something nice and then work or civilized ways or some other outside factor like for example summer or nature or the good feeling brought by motion and healthy ways of living fills them to a whole somehow finely. And that life or that day is not left there but continues onwards like a twinding path, the view is not restricted but instead possibilities in life increase and skills to a lot. But that it would demand more people, more things to do, nature, motion, meaningfullness.



On a summer cottage the things done are often more pleasant than in town. If one for example brushes the cottage's floor to smallen the numder of pine needles on the ground there, the needless are beautiful, varied, quite unlike town's trashes and dirt. But I used to have a floor with a beautifult hin woolen layer of pine on top of itin town, and it wa sreally impressive looking, and it was nice to brush and keep clean, not at all as work like as cleaning a plastic floor. Are many things in town, like cleaning for example, adjusted wrong way so that they are a burden upon people. If one would adjust some other way, for example the putting thinsg nicely at home, and some things in the environemnt like a beautiful wooden floor, pleasantly, would things in towns be lighter to bear and life better? What one should change and how? Is it a question of the place one lives in? Here in Savonlinna town people know practical things well and fine style well, but in teh capital people were better with healthy ways of living and freedom."

Buddhist enlightenment via European eyes

"In Buddhism people search for lasting happiness and masterful skill from widening one's awareness. Better observation ability is clearly beneficial for skills, especially when it is with wisdom of life. The senses and the healthy basic current of life, healthy ages old ways of living followed with healthy spirit bring happiness. That is not the style of how asians describe enlightened ones, but it seems to be the healthy basic current of especially Finnish life from which the happiness of enlightened ones too comes from. Some part of the happiness of an enlightened one comes from him/her thinking in civilized ways and with wisdom, where the style does not copy from criminals, army like style, boys, miltary service men, people too proud of their work, people wishing for unhealthily much position or even the ordinary style of civilized thought, but - not acting but across time via better quality - the characteristics recommended by religions, which also some parts of arts seek to communicate. So some part of happiness is not being stuck in failures and poor approaches but instead uses civilized wisdom and instead of grasping without proper reasons, one wi´th a wide, natural, compassionate, with wisdom of life, sensitive, with healthy spirit, emphasizing ages old features and building based on the human nature, with such attention and by taking part in the flow of life, with the skill of compassion and taking part in life as one among many one is compassionate with happenings, motivation, well functuioning, living together in harmony, the functioning of a society, humans' ages old nature and with beautiful values and ideals etc ."

About kalevala

"I bought Kalevala as a book to myself and read some of the beginning. In the competition singing of Väinämöinen and Joukahainen I was surprised to notice that Joukahainen did not lack skills so much, but instead Väinämöinen sang him to be things like the glow of the nature, to the marks of great skill in the nature.
   "Hat from the head of the man he sang
   to be an erect front edge of a cloud;
   he sang mittens from his hands
   to be leaves on the cover of pond's water,
   from that misty blue
   to be clouds in the sky,
   from his belt a fascination of a new wife
   to be stars scattered in the sky."
So I was left to ponder, if I as a girl thought when reading kalevala that that is what can happen with great skill: one loses position, propably via losing communication connection when one no longer speaks the language of men with more soldier like style. That I would take care to not to fall myself into that pitfall. But at the same time I thought that I could nearly reach that high, to that style in achievements. Now I think that it is like having met a bird: with it's song it makes forests beautifult o wander in, green, there is much soldier like wisdom in it's voice. 
 But so, how did I think I could reach so high skill and quality of life, like the reddish glow of the grassas in a forest etc. One would have a healthy way fo living or a healthy touch of one's own which would cure the way of life healthy again, to ages old. In every thing one would see the parts of healthy way of life which are as an idea in it, and so the deed when sees alike as others' deeds would be healthy on one's own and on others too, and so one could continue with healthy psirit from that, each one, whole society, and partly the rest of the world lear from it. ( World is of love (a mechanical model) http://healthilymoral.blogspot.fi/2011/08/world-is-of-love.html ) ( http://finnishskills.blogspot.fi/2015/11/healthy-ways-of-living.html )
One would have skills of one's own, one would have found one's own roads in life, it would be good to be an individual, personality, like oneself and strong, enjoying being an individual. And so human relationships would be in a way clishee like and in a way with a healthy spirit: one would have the strenght to have an opinion, do meaningful things, carried by the values of the society, things with healthy psirit carried by the actions and values of the society which have healthy spirit which would have strenght and content to life.
And one could get strenght, skills and integrite with opinions from being soldier like: to defend something, to invest in healthy courses, copying fro little singin birds and fromother strong wild animal persons (http://wildharmony.blogspot.fi/ ). One would be healthily spoirty, doing things at the practical level, with a good understanding achieved via adfmiring the nature and feeling via beautiful values, caring for the world, approaching life with feelings, motivated to the sphere of life and missions of the traditional way of life, with feelings and with a good understanding, reaching parts of the forefigures in nature of their skill level every now and then.
