Myth Matters

Our notion of "self" is one of the deep and enduring mysteries of human existence. The concept of self is both obvious and unfathomable, the meanings elusive and diverse. It can range from the concrete "me" to the illusory-- the self as a shifting fabrication of preferences, experiences, and perceptions.
To speak mythologically of the "self" is to speak of our yearning for soul, for depth, for the direct experience of our own inner unfolding. This process is guided by that part of us that knows our unique place in the grand scheme of things.
Many of our myths and stories describe this quest for a vision and relationship to self that satisfies our longing. In this episode, I tell you "The Six Companions" fairy tale.
