The belief that the universe is the physical manifestation of God (his/her body so to speak) but not the totality of God. God transcends the physical universe though it is part of him/her. Different from pantheism that states that the universe is God in totality.
Panantheism is the belief that the universe is the physical body of God but his/her spirit is bigger than the universe alone and transcends it.

Get the panantheism mug.Pagan metal is an umbrella term for heavy metal music, which fuses extreme metal with the pre-Christian traditions of a specific culture or region through thematic concept, ethnic melodies, folk instruments and/or archaic languages.
The genre is largely overlapping with folk metal with the main distinction being the use of specific lyrical themes dealing with indigenous European traditions, beliefs, mythology, military and political history.
Pagan metal is most popular in Northern Europe with most of the main bands of the genre also coming from there, such as Finntroll, Týr, Korpiklaani, Bathory, Skyforger and Moonsorrow.
