Episode 67 - Invoking muses and inspiration in Greek Myth. Opening the deep beauty.
Om episode
In this episode we will take one more look at the different approaches to knowledge and wisdom through the storytelling and myth, vs. the more rational-logic approach of philosophy. We will reference the Theogony of Hesiod, and the in some ways first Greek Philosopher, Thales. From the opening of the Theogony - as Hesiod consciously taps into the deep of the biology, beauty, inspiration and creativity; "And one day they taught Hesiod glorious song while he was shepherding his lambs under holy Helicon, and this word first the goddesses said to me -- the Muses of Olympus, daughters of Zeus who holds the aegis: `Shepherds of the wilderness, wretched things of shame, mere bellies, we know how to speak many false things as though they were true; but we know, when we will, to utter true things.'" Theogony, v.23-28. Advertising Inquiries: }https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: }https://redcircle.com/privacy
