Twice-born Dionysus—son of Zeus and mortal Semele—survives his mother’s death, gestates in Zeus’s thigh, and grows hidden on Mount Nysa. Hounded by Hera, he masters metamorphosis, learns nature’s rites from Rhea, and becomes god of wine, ecstasy, and rebirth. Leading satyrs and nymphs, he spreads his liberating cult across Greece and on a triumphal march to distant India.

Dionysus and Shiva are the same!😊
May ask since dionysus goes against conventions… Does that include xenia? Does he find humans who are unruly and follows their instincts and insane ambitions amusing?
I ❤ Dionysus
His mother's I very heard pronounced /SE-me-lay/. Just saying.
WOW.
For anyone wondering, the Greek sources for this , is Nonnus's Dionysiaca, Diodorus Siculus, Library of History and Pseudo-Apollodorus, The Library
I felt that Windhager and Steele played well. Keeler showed a lot of skills and talent.
Why are we chasing TDK when we have Keeler and Heath coming through? Keeler could be twice as good as TDK is. Are we gonna pay him twice as much?
We offer big money for players outside of our club, what is that going to do to what some of our younger players, like Nas, expect they are worth to the club?
We have good talented players, many with true footy nous, coming into their prominence as regular AFL players, after only 2-3 years at the club. Usually a rookie takes about 5 years to become an established AFL player with a full sized adult body to compete with the best players.
We should wait till this group gels into a well established team with great performances from some of the core young players learning and growing into real AFL performers. Then young players will be wanting to come to us without us having to throw big money at them.
Patience Sainters, this young group has the potential to out do all that have come before.
This is an absolutely captivating start to the saga of Dionysus! I've always been fascinated by his myths, and this deep dive into his adventures in India is something I've rarely seen covered with such detail and flair. The storytelling is fantastic, and it really brings the ancient world to life. Can't wait for Ep 2!
Hera is insane! All rh bastardized gods like him Hercules and Apollo should join forces against her.😂
This tale as far as I know was recorded only in the Dionysica. A Greek work of ridiculously long length which weirdly enough was written AFTER Christianity had overtaken paganism as the dominant religion in Greece. As a result it’s not a well known story.
Hail Dionysos! IO EUOI!!!
Thanks for the video
Be careful if you don’t want to end up with the Norse gods.
I like to think that there is a multiverse with each one ruled by different gods but the gods can also travel to other universes to meet other gods like how humans travel from 1 country to another.
He has many tales great and long filled with chaos and destruction
I can see Dionysus and Shiva party together
Hera very mean and revengeful
Nicee, I love Dionysus. Keep it coming.
Dionysus in india what what
this seems awesome
Could you do a video on Yaldabaoth the God of the Gnostic gospels?
