as self-sustaining and self-explanatory. They had the rightness and finality of myths -David L. Hart, from his book “The Water of Life” To me this means that we don't have to even understand the tale. It works on us like myths do, beyond the rational mind...

Fairytales have been told, retold and handed down as sacred stories because they are expressions of a reality which has been traditionally recognized throughout the world as precious and vital to human life. Long before our contemporary interpretations, they stood for themselves

The creative process, so far as we are able to follow it at all, consists in the unconscious activation of an archetypal image .... By giving it shape, the artist translates it into the language of the present and so makes it possible for us to find our way back to the deepest springs of life CGJung

“A world without love is a world governed by rigid contracts and inexorable duties, a world in which – God forbid! – the lawyers run everything. The mark of really loving someone or something is unconditionality and excess, engagement and commitment, fire and passion.” ― John D. Caputo, On Religion

Treating the Sunday readings as if they are #dreams is yielding some really big surprises. This practice leads to not privileging traditional views but allowing the images themselves to subvert the primacy of the ego. #Jungian

Forgive the dated lanugage - Chance as a category of experience is a symptom of the alienated life. For the Self-connected man, as for the child and the primitive, chance does not exist. Perhaps this is the meaning of "Unless you tum & become like children you will never enter the Kingdom" Edinger

"The Living Water" is a powerful archetype. It's featured in a famous fairy tale and is the mythic theme in the readings this week. (Moses hits the rock to produce water, Jesus talks at the well with the Samaritan woman). We approach these as dreams. Join us for a "deep dive!" pod.link/1799776273
