- A gorgeous creation story by the Australian Aboriginals from the Big Myth collection. See all 25 of creation stories from different parts of the world in English, German and Dutch on www.bigmyth.com.
Also as an Aboriginal person from the east coast, never heard this one before. It would be awesome if you could identify the nation this Dreaming story came from, just as you identified the Inuit, Navajo and Iroquois for their stories from North America.
As an Aboriginal person, I’ve never heard this one before, but in saying that there are many many tribes from all over Australia that have their own creation stories. Do your research if you really wanna know, don’t just believe one story!
some are hard to find on the internet, someone should go out collecting them all

Thanks
From wikipedia: The Arrernte (/ˈʌrəndə/) people, sometimes referred to as the Aranda, Arunta or Arrarnta, are a group of Aboriginal Australian peoples who live in the Arrernte lands, at Mparntwe (Alice Springs) and surrounding areas of the Central Australia region of the Northern Territory. Many still speak one of the various Arrernte dialects. Some Arrernte live in other areas far from their homeland, including the major Australian cities and overseas.
So this is ONE Arrernte myth
Who’s here from your teacher making you watch this in quarantine
Sharkbait D3ad yup😔😭
this sucks

Ka-ro-ra spend alot of his time just sleeping.
So do you.
Headless Gorilla wow
Think he's going to wake up again?
yep
The original odinsleep 😂
Moral of the story , don't over hunt the bandicoots
LOL so true
SUPER TRUE
I WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN IF YOU DIDNT COMMENT(IM A GIRL)
i have to do 11 creation stories for r.e homework and i lost most of the notes so i watch these cause these are the 1s we watch at school
They really were into bandicoots.
What? Bandicoots are not made there grown from the eucalyptus tree hallowed out by ants...
And if there really isn't much left, Then we can all say thanks to you and your convict, banished, invading forefathers!!!!!!!!👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾 go back to your own country already!!!!
Who wants to eat a bandicoot now?
The stories by Percy trezise and dick roughsey still remain as my favourite dream time stories. I still have my original collection from when my parents bought them for me and have since added to that collection with different versions.
Looking at this now it's way ahead of its time. a jewel!!!
This used to scare the crap out of me because it felt strange and just trippy. The designs look unnerving too.
Well I'm Aboriginal and this is the first time I've heard this story🤣😂🤣 I literally got a share this with my father🤣 I kinda feel ashamed at the moment probably because I come from the Western Desert and I've never heard this creation story,? Oh well anything to tell a story I guess🤷♀️🤦♀️
Same here! from the Pilbara and we have stories about a warlu, idk about this one ahahah
Haha! The "pole" is the same thing as other cultures call the "Silver cord".t is the energetic line that connect the physical, 3 dimensional body to the "Creator/Spirit". It is said that when we have an "out of body" experience, we can see a silver ribbon like object floating from the center of our body up to our etheric or spirit body that is "taking the trip". The "Pole" or "Silver cord" is like a hard drive where all the history of the planet and of the individual's lifetimes is stored.
Mimi DiFrancesca very interesting, I fancy, can you please recommend some literature on this "silver cord"?

Prior to invasion by the Europeans there were over 400 countries of Indigenous people in Australia. The Dreaming stories are as diverse as you would expect from over 400 countries. This is just one version of a creation story but there are many, many more. In some tribes the women were gatherers and collecters, in others they stood beside the men as they fought the wildlife to eat and survive. It is far easier to focus on the local country to gain an understanding of what people in your local area believed and how they lived. I live in the Darkinjung country which is about an hour north of Sydney
What's your address?
+MetalBlazer12 69173821SUCKBALLZ Street
So what do the people of the Darkinjung believe as the story of creation?
No, there are many different creation stories, because there are many different aboriginal peoples and nations
Love your creation videos. Can you do one of TONGA? kohai koau mo momo.
This is incredible! Thank you for sharing
Im an Aussie and I can tell you, there aren't really that many bandicoots.
Nice, I'm Aussie to. G'day mate!!
whoops, I meant too
Because they were nearly hunted to extinction
im aussie to g'day
I, Aussie too g’day mate
As a wiradjuri girl, I ain’t never heard this before-
"all we see or seen is but a dream with in a dream"
i love this
He was tired from sleeping?
Exactly.
weird, tired for SLEEPING...
You can with depression. And the story said he realized he was lonely.
Nice shirt man
Really great video
I borrowed a book from the library with a different Aboriginal creation myth. Maybe there was more than one story. I read that Baime was the one God and he created the first man out of the dust and then he created the first female from the Coolabah tree to keep him company. This myth apparently is from the south east. The myth also told that Baime created the first two humans as vegetarians apparently and that their first sin was to eat meat. Can anyone with knowledge clarify if this myth from the south east has any hidden message. What I mean is, I am wondering if the word myth means to have a secret meaning. Greek myths had a secret meaning and I am wondering if Aboriginal myths did also.
+Brook Renwick There are 227 tribes in Australia
+Rhys Nagas really. that many.
+Brook Renwick Yes there is one tribe that has seventeen other tribes bordering it alone. So yes as you can imagine geographically some are larger than others and the languages differ a little sometimes and there are also vast differences in landscape, animals flora and fauna. So depending on interpretations from aboriginal languages to Forms of English, translations can even change and alter the wording

the didgeridoo is Irish(word) and means black piper
(Funny cause in Ireland traditionaly the word used to discribe black skined folk is blue(gorm)as black man would mean the devil and out of respect they would be referred to as blue men)
and the natives in oz have many lovely words for it that means wooden book.
ShadeyBladey tell me where in Australia is there no hopping marsupials df
Everything is an endless repetition.. brilliant I say! Pure brilliant.
have you heard Versace by migos?
So how did the world get started? Where were the women? How did mankind play into all of this? It feels unfinished.
samuraipanda85 Totally agree.
I think the aboriginal concept of time is cyclical, perhaps they are saying we are all part of a temporary dream.
Where abouts in Australia is this story from
Yeah, like all Shamanic creation stories they begin within creation, not without.
this is different from the one I was tought
sushi28 it changes from tribe to tribe but there are similarities between them though
The sons and the kangaroo washed away.
Sounds like Noah and the arc.
The great pole sounds like the tree of life.
LOL
Cold Water You couldn’t be any more wrong. The Enuma Elish, The Epic of King Khufu, and The Tale of Noah all give semblance to this Kangaroo story. And if you actually know what a Myth means, a Myth is a folk tale to describe an actual significant event that happened in the world. And when you have multiple stories with similar themes, generally it is describing a world event that everybody knew about. It’s all allegory alluding to a portion of time in history.
And noah and arc is copied from?
I’m sensing a slight bit of Christianisation
@@WrestleManiaMan1000 Not every civilization has a flood story myth, But the ones that do all share a border with an ocean, sea, or large body of water. It's not a "world event" but rather events that happened around the world or at least an event that the people had a fear of happening.
They really butched this story , inaccuracies on point thats all I can say
"In the time before time there was nothing besides a pole coming out of the ground." I thought there was nothing??? where does the ground come from??
ask a bunch academia and they will tell you the nothing decided to become something all by itself
The notion of nothing in ancient times is different than the nothing that we have today
Earth was created when 2 planets colided
Exactly my thoughts.... 🤣🤣
KA-RO-RA, CHI-RHO, Cairo Egypt, RA. Interesting thoughts.
cool
Aboriginal Dream is the most correct method on how creation began. consciousness sleeps within the earth, dreams in the animal and becomes alive in the human.
this story is cool hi ollie
Dope
i came here for home schooling XD
and why is the dude so sleepy lol
XD
Where is the mythical pole located?
Given recent discoveries that record human migration across the pacific (perhaps more than twice) and the geographical proof that the Earth floods every 10,000 years or so ... where is the pole? Or what does it represent?
Earth will never flood completely again.
Don't sleep to long one will get tired and hungry.
so ... he slept all the time and just woke up to hunt and eat ... interesting ...
7Spronge great life lol
Woke up after everyone disappeared from a honey catastrophe, "Meh, better go back to sleep."
So what about Crash the bandicoot?
Ka-ro-ra... I see hints of ancient Egypt...
wow
Run Crash, RUN!!!
@dbcarttar think massive solar storms with their accompanying CMEs... i could imagine a major solar storm 5x the 1859 event might create visual displays of arcs of light across the surface of the sun... in essence, covering the disk of the sun with arcs of solar material and the resulting auroras could appear like a necklace to some.
this is awesome!
@RECKOGNING1 Than what? The teletubby story?
This is a dreaming of just one Tribe. I remember hearing of another tribes story of creation which contained interaction with the Sky Cult. Can anyone help direct me to this story? thanks. People write the dreamings of as crap, but they simply just dont listen hard enough.
Yes there were 500 separate nations.
thats right
So this is a simulation if it comes from a dream state.
I can't even.... facepalming so hard OTL
Priscy123 you wrote this when I was nine now im fifteen crazy
@@lz_creep6856 you're 16 now lol
A wonderful religion not too violent in its beliefs and practices
It's simple.. he killed the batman.
Tyler Twigger YES
Ok, they still got the great honey flood myth
Mmmm..... Bandicoots.... /drool/
;_;
Can anyone psychoanalyze this? What is the meaning of this? And how and why the natives dream of this? Under what conditions? Psychologically speaking...
So, wheres the part about humans being created?
"He had been sleeping for a long, long time and he was TIRED and hungry." Hmm don't know if just stupid or very stupid..
Simon Pieters ahahahahahahahah
Most are tired when you wake up. Except dogs they are ready to go lol
Evolution Level: 1
You should watch that tripping
i lernt so mach o mei got senk ju
Am I the only one who failed to see the purpose of the giant pole?
hi ollie
If you are a Hindu you would understand this story very well.
The infinite endless pole of energy = Shiva
The supreme being who lies and imagines creation = Vishnu
This is exactly the fragments of the Hindu mythology of creation.
All creation stories are one in the same.
Well not quite, all creation stories are one in the same, as they are ALL based on Astrology and the Zodiac, and to be precise the oldest people were the Sesh, these were the first 42 tribes of Afrika, these tribes consisted of all races of Man we have on our PLANE today, they were all in one place at the same time and then they spread out. The plane then, was one land mass know as Khemit. We are ONE PEOPLE divided by KNOWLEDGE.
Tango Charli the aborginies follow the earliest religion the world have ever know, most of the other old religions like hinduism stems from their ideas of creation myth.
one of the silliest creation myths I have heard
#2spooky4me
People's imagination is interesting when they know so little!
yo dis waz lit yo i smoked da dank as karoro with my eggnog u fill me homi i smoked da grass under da armpit brah !!! SOOO LIT!!!
Sounds like me.
Wheres logic
Hi
Why would the ZULU tribe in Africa share a strange part of their creation myth... the zulu's god sent a chameleon messenger to the people to say they would live forever but it was a slacker - then their god sent a fast lizard to say death was for everyone! WEIRD!
Aint no way my teacher made me watch this
hi
LAWL
Is this like Inceotion or something?
This is more evidence of the first Saturn Sun events that became our modern Western mythology. Search David Talbot.
I've always thought that if I were teaching in somewhere like Texas where a 'balanced' view might be required to off-set/balance the evolution THEORY then I'd suggest to any class I might have that they should research various creation myths and compare them with the only true, christian interpretation because I know that's exactly what they do not want to happen, they want balanced representation as long is it is only THEIR (the christians') myth!
+clive whistance
Clive do you consider christians to believe in evolution as their creation method? I was never in texes and judging from the gwb's actions they are not christian, either were any of the european settlers that promoted the native american genocide or slavery, based on my understanding of jesus teachings/ways.... I was in oz though and found out that the didgeridoo is Irish(word) and means black piper(Funny cause in Ireland traditionaly the word used to discribe black skined folk is blue(gorm)as black man would mean the devil and out of respect they would be referred to as blue men) and the natives in oz have many lovely words for it that means wooden book.
Aboriginal stories were told to us as a kid yet we were taught they are wrong and silly.
people saying how 'silly' it is, why? because it's not historically accurate? just shut up.
I don't
understand
"Dreamtime" is a clumsy translation of how many Australian aboriginals think about myths. The noun Altjira means an eternal being, like Lee Marvin from Night Vale. The verb altjirerama can mean 'to dream', but also to 'see god', stemming from the idea that dreaming consists of seeing things that are real, but have no connection to our world, like other dimensions separated from our own not in space but in time.
Karora is a bandicoot spirit in the Dreamtime in the sense that the above story happened long long (or far far in the future) ago in a part of Australia far far away (I think), such that it isn't the creation story of our world, but a kind of sur-reality that the storyteller superimposes on the present from either end of time.
It can be seen as what reality is in both the far future and far past, so distant that things have changed beyond recognition. It can also be seen as a non-conscious reality that a soul exists in before and after mortal/physical existence, from which ancestral law, memory, and culture derive. Because of the second meaning, ancestral law, memory, and culture is said to be that group's Dreaming.
This sounds crazy. Like buckets of crazy. Yet so many people believe that one guy, who is really three guys, got together and spoke everything into existence. Then a talking snake convinced a woman to eat a apple, and that is why bad stuff happens. Things got too bad for god, so he flooded the earth, not before putting two of everything on a boat for a year, and THEN decided thousands of years later that he would send himself to die for himself so people could be "saved."
OF course, then there's the other story... which I shall tell with exactly the same amount of accuracy and respect as you told the Genesis account. Once upon a long time ago, no one is too sure when, there was this great big Bang. Everything came from that, including time and space. Eventually, things settled down and a lot of stars formed... planets, too. On one of those planets there were lots of chemicals in a soupy sort of goo, although no one was there to see that happen. Then something happened and the goo transformed itself into self-replicating helixes. These helixes managed to survive for millions of years in the goo, and nothing bad happened to them, until they eventually managed to make protective walls around themselves because they somehow could. Then the cells' DNA changed again, because it just did, and then the cells became multiple cells. Over time, things happened that made the DNA change again and again, because it just did... and then plants and animals formed in order to maximise the chances of the DNA helix's ability to survive. As time wore on, there appeared humans. There. And all this happened cos it just did.
Whats with all the bandicoots. I live in Australia and there aint no banicoots
there is lol
but in a few areas
*seems like a shortened genesis story only ka ro ra is god and the honey flood is the biblical flood or also the pre biblical sumerian flood story, clearly the aboriginals are descendants of indians from india*
@Private Name withheld only by 60 000 years does it pre date the bible ! lol
This is similar to the great flood
Tower of Babylon and the great flood?
everyone, I just read the lot of comments. a lot of people are complaining about this story. this story is just a myth from aboriginals. you don't have to believe it, but you just have to support the aboriginal's beliefs.
please be kind, everyone :)
So many Mobs….who’s story is this??????
My teacher is weird for sending me this 😐
SAME😭
This is totally alien. Who is the source of this? Which language group takes ownership of this story?
People were like child like at that time to really come up with this creation stories.
BANTER!!!!
B a original creation myth
this is way more complicated then adam and eve... ill stick to scared geometry
Awesome, man came from earth, long time pass, mother earth also rested and stayed here. Gave women. The planet's helped in creating us also. We absorb sun for energy too keep world turning. In accordance to planets. Why do government write down time of birth, because you born with gifts from planets. Dreamtime we all still do, ask sun for insight in mornings. You will know the answer. That's dreamtime. Egyptians, all ancient civilisations knew this, but advantage takers also know your a fresh computer when born,the feed you information, which is rubbish. Take it or leave it, don't care, I'm almost in 5th dimension. Well past the 3rd..
ahhhhhh NO
Lsd trip much
Honestly some of these comments are coming across as quite ignorant and disrespectful... Take a step back for a second and realise we are dealing with the opinions, perceptions and interpretations of a mind from a time where things were far different than your facebook feed!...
You can't just decipher any encrypted code with our usual way of thinking now can we? When dealing with the Interpretations and opinions of people we might not even understand, trying to gather enough information to form a conclusion image of what took place and for what reasons, we need to be more careful to not lock ourselves into closed minded thinking. Being too confident that we are correct or will be correct, tends to make us humans slip up and miss a few things ;)
Might I add, some history is lost forever and might be the key parts to unlocking the bigger picture and sometimes we accept things as truth then let it change outcomes and observations for years to come without realising it was false.
I can swear that I remember someone telling me Kangaroos were transported here from China, also that the native people traded their boomerangs with foreigners. I wonder whether that might be the reason someone thought to remember it as a man turning into a kangaroo...? Our 21st century logic doesn't apply to old stories, nor help us understand them...
i agree
da hell
