Hiding in My Personality Box
Channel: Interior Mythos Journeys

Mister Rogers (Fred) was fond of promoting the concept that children should be nurtured early in life to develop a strong sense of self, ego strength, and personal self-image. And then, this precious human being, if they are to continue growing and maturing into the essential depth of adulthood, they should promptly…lose it!

Many of us enthusiastically embrace the first part of Mister Roger’s prescription for depth maturity but recoil at the second.

If you can believe it, we get caught. We get caught falling in love with our “self.” We get caught falling in love with our entrapment in the self-constructed personalities we have painstakingly built over the years as a protection against the depth of our essential reality and deepest authenticity.

Gene Marshall invites us to become aware of the very specific ways in which we live on the surface of life Escaping My Depth. Thank you Gene!  Please encounter:  Hiding in MY PERSONALITY BOX

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.
