    The Unconscious is a product of the Ego. The Unconscious is much more than just bodily sensations. I (😄) think and thus, creates the circle. The eye of the storm. The point as the interface between ‘that which/ who cannot even be conceptualised’ and everything else including the Unconscious. Think of a black hole (the alchemical sun as circle with the dot, in its black phase aka the sun after it implodes) as the point from which matter comes into existence and in which all returns. Maybe each black hole in this universe is a sun on the other side of the brane. The I is a cultural, relational product, The Eye that/ who created whilst seeing/ observing. The question is whose eye. The Eye of Ra, obviously, The Sun. My Beloved ☺️

    Joseph Campbell has the ability to understand true Mysticism, true Esoteric Path and the meaning of what Initiation means, the true path for transformation, or transmutation if you prefer, of ourselves into better human beings. And this is achieved ONLY, when we understand that to be better occurs in practice of SERVING Humanity. To read his words is a kind of beacon in a dark night. This video explains why he choosed Wolfram Eschenbach to study Arthurian Myths and not no one else.

    In the Republic, Socrates asks who lives the “pleasant-est” life: the one who loves gain, honor, or wisdom? His answer? The one who loves wisdom. Because only they can experience all 3. The Goddesses represent parts of human nature. NOT man’s relationship with women, but your relationship with the feminine part of yourself, the right hemisphere of your mind. This story probably originally meant: The one who appreciates all three (the power, beauty, and love/honor) within themselves is the “richest” one in the world. Jane Harrison is absolutely correct, and Erich Fromm also noted Greek Mythology changed to downplay the feminine. And that’s when the lessons people started to receive from myths taught them to choose between their values, rather than synthesize them. Ie; unite the two hemispheres and become whole. And now that myths became ego-and-left-hemisphere-focused, everyone, but especially men, slowly forgot the synergy (and the power, riches, wisdom, and thus - pleasant life) that arises from inner synthesis. Instead men were learning to reject, repress, and resist the feminine/right hemisphere beautiful, loving, caring, passionate, curious, unpredictable, “soft” part of themselves.

    People have gone to enormous lengths to track down one version or another of these. The most popular Christian version is the cup Jesus used at the last supper, that Joesph of Arimathea used to collect his blood The Grail Sagas describe medieval knights setting out on perilous long journeys searching for some holy relic which is usually described as the chalice used at the last supper or the chalice used by Joseph of Arimathea to collect Jesus's blood. after the crucifixion. First of all the cup Jesus used at the last supper was no different to the cup anyone else used at the last supper! And secondly you didn't collect blood from corpses in Jewish tradition, it was the last thing you did!* It wasn't that at all, it was a coded allegory for a pathway of initiation. A wonderful wonderfully gifted man Professor Joseph Campbell posed a question in his series the power of myth, why should any medieval knight set out in search of any relic however holy when all he had to do according to the belief systems at the time, was good for the nearest church and through the miracle of transubstantiation partake directly of the body and blood of Jesus and Campbell said it is an allegory. A story telling us about the principles of initiation. To back up his argument he cited a passage from the Gospel of Thomas where Jesus is reported as saying ‘he who drinks from my mouth I shall become he and he shall become me’ in other words all of us without exception if we do the work and spend a lifetime at it, are capable of the same acts of compassion, humility gentleness and healing that Jesus was capable of if we follow the path. _No, no the Grail is a coded allegorical description of the pathway to enlightenment, it's a transformative process, it's an intellectual and spiritual change_

    I’ve read and studied and taught classes on JC for over 35 years: It took me a long time to realize that it’s not a choice, as JC says here. It’s often painful and distressing and lonely to be a left handed path person. It wasn’t a choice, if it were, I would have chosen a right handed path however boring. A well worn path is easier to walk. Funny that JC life was a right handed path, education, where he could talk about and share left handed path psychology. He’s a treasure.

    What a brilliant explanation! Especially the way Campbell brings in both Christian and Hindu religion to explain the difference between the animal "pelvic basin" nature and the heart, human nature. So the Virgin Birth can be thought of as the emergence of the heart of human compassion but without depending on the purely animal nature - aggression, consumption, lack of compassion - all the stuff that are symbolized not only by Satan but also by those who mocked and crucified Jesus.

    The Power of Myth series should be required viewing at the college level. That's when I saw the documentary, and I feel like I was just old enough to be ready to hear these two wise men discussing these things, but also young enough to have many lessons and mistakes ahead of me where I could think back and say to myself, well, that part was in the Power of Myth and they were right. Now I'm in my 50s, and feeling like a major problem of the world is that too many of us don't really understand myths. Myths are not just wishful thinking or irrational delusion. They are the stories of what makes us a living part of this universe. Very scary due to contemplating physical death, but also gloriously beautiful because all of us have a completely unique experience of it.
