This Is My Body - The Incarnational Principle

What do life and death have to do with one another?  Maybe everything!  Is it possible to fully eat the bread of life if one is not willing to eat the bread of death?  Most of us quickly grasp the survival instinct and trust its appearance and impetus within ourselves or another. Yet we are often challenged to grasp inclinations, postures, or acts that run counter to this deeply programmed survival orientation; acts of self-sacrifice or expenditure.

Yet, at a deeper level, we recognize the emptiness of a life lived through consumption with a primary objective of survival, contrasted with the fullness of a life of expenditure and a primary objective of service.

Contrary to the daily bombardment of messages from the popular culture, meaning in life is derived not from consumption but expenditure.

This unpopular and unwanted truth is central to the most radical rituals great teachers have shared throughout history to assist in smashing our cherished illusions. This truth is central to the curriculum promoted through Interior Mythos Journeys.

Our Mission: The curriculum of Interior Mythos Journeys is a quest to explore contemporary mythic language that is in harmony with the 21st Century, Global, Quantum Scientific, and Universal Reality in which we all actually live.  Learn more at https://interiormythos.com/

As we solitarily and collectively claim the force of a relevant contemporary mythos, we are delivered to the possibility of life-lived-in-depth, the possibility of authentic life. This is the path beneath the surface.

The Transformative Encounter: The Practice of Contemplation

In the current age this transformative encounter, as well as the practices that deliver us to this encounter and the personal connection that flows from this encounter, is seldom the focus of our lives. Many of us wander disoriented through life, often on a self-destructive path, in a world seen, understood, and measured primarily by the external environment. We are disconnected from the Connecting Myth. We are disconnected from the interior depth to which the Connecting Myth might deliver us. Ironically, we have come to understand myth as a lie rather than a symbolic and metaphoric gateway to a deeper truth.
