(literal translation)
“Happy is the man who keeps his own good name and wisdom while he lives;
for bad advice is often given from another man’s heart.”
This excerpt is from the Hávamál, the “Words of the High One”, a collection of traditional poems from medieval Iceland (the Poetic Edda).
Attributed to Óðinn (Odin), god of the Norse pantheon, it presents a series of wisdom sayings, ethical precepts, and philosophical reflections.
Non-dogmatic, this text allows for spiritual enrichment and is very often used in Ásatrú ceremonies.
