Na'vi congruences with Earth

Zefanaya · January 23, 2010, 04:52:49 PM

Kaltxi, sorry for the title but kinda could not think of another one basically I set up this thread because I want to know what you have seen or heard that reminds of the way the Na'vi think or things that remind of the Avatar movie like songs or things you see or read, I will post a few times a week of what I see, hear, or read fell free to treat this like a micro blog.

One thing that reminds me of Avatar is the song "Famous Last Words" by My Chemical Romance, it reminds me of How Jake never gave up of you listen to the lyrics there are a few points which seem very much avatar related though the song was made befor one of them is "I see you lying there next to me" which reminds me of the scene right after Neytiri and Jake become mated " and another part makes me look at how our modern world eclipses beauty of earth and our lives "So many Bright lights, that cast a shadow But can I speak? Well is it hard understanding I'm incomplete A life that's so demanding I get so weak A love that's so demanding
I can't speak" and then how he switches between avatar and human "I see you lying next to me With words I thought I'd never speak Awake and unafraid Asleep or dead" [Famous Last Words and lyrics are property of the band my chemical romance and there recording companies] listen to it free here http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/album/Famous+Last+Words+Live+B+Side/613876

Kaltxì, I was walkin down the beach near to where I live, and I saw loads of birds all flying around and perchin on the rocks, and it really reminded me of when you see all the ikran flying around the hallelujah mountains and especially when the ikran clan of the coast all fly out on their
ikran

The destruction of our mother nature, is what is killing me inside. To know we are facing problems that are nearly impossible to solve. Our very economy is based on the fundamental problems: power and money (materalistic items). Every other problem can be broken down to those two. We eliminate those we get one thing everyone with a brain wants: peace and tranquility. And hopefully, that would lead us back to our natural selves. There are many other factors, of course, but these are the most significant. Get rid of those, greed will be gone, and the need for fossil fuels can actually be replaced by environmental-safe sources, as greed (being the fuel for fossil fuels, which is the biggest source of money, which is also the reason there are very few environmentally-safe energy sources because they are dirt cheap in comparison, giving oil diggers less money)...

See what I mean? Only problem is: it is not going to happen without radical changes. And due to the fact history seems to repeat, and our current path has happened to many other civilizations, means that it will continue to other civilizations. Until death do us apart. Sickening, disgusting, but very, very true.

Eywa/God/Gaia help us all! Before it is too late!

Amen, that all i can say people like us I believe can make a difference we must not fall into the trap which hath consumed the rest of this planet.

I saw a number plate today that was EKX, and said it aloud nìNa'vi... my wife looked at me strangely. It was well worth it for that look alone!

Kaltxi,
As I said when i started this i would do periodoic updates on what is happeing in my life with Na'vi so the congruences between my life and the Na'vi:

Ok so I have been trying to publicly practice Na'vi language and the mindset of truly seeing... no I did not find a way to get to Pandora and make avatars or find the miracle cure to make our planet have floating mountains if i had of you would probable me watching me on TV right now, but by practicing Na'vi even something as simple as greeting your best friend with Kaltxi or oel ngati kameie, and replacing thank you with Irayo, I managed to make my friend want to learn Na'vi I have jsut been having a really good day and I guess so was he and we had just got done talking and as we were about to enter passing period at school he said to me hey I want to learn Na'vi now I think it would be fun (little does he know how hard some of the words are but he will get through it with my help and I will get through it with all of your help meaning the forums and anyone else who speaks Na'vi we are both mega avatar fans) So the first thing that I did was tell him to go to http://www.learnnavi.org and download and read the lexicon and I told him I would help him (I plug this site in like all of my posts to facebook twitter and myspace plug meaning promote) hopefully he did what I said and we should see him join the forum in a few day's... now I have to help him pick a Na'vi name. So overall great start to the week and as always may Eywa ngahu, ulte hawnu nÍwotx tirey, 'ivong Na'vi! (sorry for that being sketchy trying to work from memory)

Hey readers, I wanted to know what you guys want to talk about and what some of your major questions or some of the things you have been learning about that are Na'vi or Avatar related, and as quick congruence update I keep listening to music and keep finding things that sound like they could be Na'vi related or in line with Na'vi thinking , let me know what you guts think.
